Hey - does anybody have the "One Shining Moment" clip - either the song or this year's video clip - from the NCAA Tourney. I didn't get to see it...

1. Congrats to [livejournal.com profile] hjcallipygian for finishing first in the NCAA Tourney Pool. HJ made the big move out of the first week second division, mostly because all the favorites lost, and his Gators won. Yay to HJ! Even if it means a member of the tribe (UCLA's Jordan Farmar) had to lose...

2. Good luck wishes to my University of Maryland Terrapins women's basketball team, who upset #1 UNC and will face #2 Duke tonight in the Championship game.

3. A damn gopher chewed through my cable line. When I came home yesterday, I had no internet and no TV. CRISIS! It's a good thing there are bars. Otherwise, I would have had to read books or clean my house. Stupid gophers.

4. In a discussion of Human/Vampire romantic relationships and the unfeasibility thereof, came across the best encapsulation of why I first wound up liking the Buffy/Angel ship during BtVS6/AtS3:

Maybe the problem is that Angel isn't being compared to anyone in particular, but just to "a human". He might not be better for Buffy than the ideal human guy, but he might be better than any actual human guy you could name. It's like the old joke: 60% of voters say they prefer an unnamed democrat over (for example) DeLay. It's the named democrats that they don't want.


5. I think that Barry Bonds (and other players accused of cheating with steroids pre-steroids testing agreement) should only be punished for it, if MLB is going to go ahead and kick Whitey Ford and Gaylord Perry (among other notorious cheaters) out of the hall of fame.
