Random Notes on the Week

[dlgood]

1. Expect my new computer to be shipped in, any day now. My current PC has served me very well over the last 6 years, when it went from Super-Awesome to Mostly Adequate, before eventually becoming Old Weak and Feeble. Am very excited to have a machine that does not seize up when playing anything newer than three years old.



2. This week marks the 20th Anniversary of the release of GNR's Appetite for Destruction - which was just about my favorite album during my teenage years. I think enough of it holds up. This makes me old.



3. Courtesy of Perez Hilton, I see Eliza Dusku is dating Dodgers pitcher Brad Penny. Which, is swell for her because he's an awesome pitcher who makes a lot of money.
   
   That said... if you're going to date an Alyssa Milano cast-off, I'd have recommended Barry Zito who is way cooler, much better looking, and has the most obscenely ridiculous pitching contract (7 years $126 million in San Francisco) in baseball history. Even if he's one of those archetypal weirdo left-handers.

Okay, Brad Penny reminds me of Larry the Cable Guy -- I'd go for Barry Zito, me.

And I can so deal with left-handed weirdos, honest!

Zito is more of the harmless weirdo, and $18 Million a year goes a long way toward making that dealable.

Just because Penny's got the missing link thing, and never appears to shower...

Harmless weirdos with $18 million a year is very dealable. Since I deal with the other kind a lot, heh.

And the resemblance is startling -- maybe something around the face or the ball cap? I dunno.
