Rolling Stone : Eddie Vedder: Addicted to Rock

Rolling Stone : Eddie Vedder: Addicted to Rock: "In a way, music for me was fucking heroin. It was something I needed. And to see a live show was something I needed, it gave me strength through adolescence and through this young adult life -- to feel like there was a purpose to get through this whole thing. After a live show, the high could wear off in a day or two. The bootleg recordings and listening back at them with your eyes closed and headphones seemed to make a crappy recording actually sound pretty good. It was like getting high again. I was a user."

That's what I'm talking about. Once again, Eddie speaks the truth.
I wonder if Eddie will be my AA sponsor when I'm too old to go to shows. Don't want to be the grey haired ponytail guy in the back. Mr. Sensitive PonyTail Guy.

American Airlines Sued Over Dog's Death

American Airlines Sued Over Dog's Death:

"A San Francisco man sued American Airlines, Wednesday, March 29, 2006, alleging his dog Willie died following a cross-country flight because airline employees refused to provide a veterinarian and other care after the animal fell ill. Terrence Ing wants to hold the airline accountable for its alleged negligence and to bring attention to a practice he said is all too common."

That's my old roommate and his dog Willie...

Tim McKenna - March Madness Nostradamus

Yahoo! Sports Tournament Pick'em

Who would have guessed that UCLA, LSU, Florida and GEORGE MASON of all the teams in the NCAA would make this year's Final Four???

Tim McKenna, that's who!

Mr. Tim McKenna is in sole possession of 1st place on the worldwide leaderboard over at Yahoo's March Madness Tournament Pick'em. Now he's not perfect (he's missed 16 games total so far and didn't go 15/16 on day one like yours truely)...but guessing that final four...well that's damn impressive. So impressive in fact that people on the Yahoo messageboard are obsessed with the man, the myth, the legend...

Tim McKenna is all that is wrong with our country. by: I Rule (waviclesdammit)	Mar 27 4:19pm
Our young people used to be able to look around them and see wholesome, good values taught wherever they looked. And today's young people look around and all they see is 50 Cent and Tim McKenna.

I think Tim McKenna may have just passed Chuck Norris as the greatest person at life. Tim has become the Buddha of college basketball. Actually, he probably just found some way to cheat. Eaither way, that's still cool.

Tim McKenna went back in time and deflected all three bullets aimed at JFK with his bare hands. He then told JFK that he picked George Mason to go to the Final 4. JFK's head exploded out of sheer amazement

LAist: OH MY GOD!!!

Best part of this picture (besides Michael Rolle doing god knows what) is all the different expressions in the stands. There are the obviously excited bruin fans (in yellow) that are jumping uncontrollably. There is the black guy in the left corner who's doing the turn around 'can you believe that $h#!'?? Then there's the two guys on the far right that look like they might be unhappy with their decision to get the 'Gonzaga - 2006 Champs' tattoo on their backs.

Gonzaga Bulldogs/UCLA Bruins = Greatest Night of My Life

NCAAB - Gonzaga Bulldogs/UCLA Bruins Recap Thursday March 23, 2006 - Yahoo! Sports
I can't sleep...what a night, what a game. I just went absolutely crazy along with the Q's crowd in West LA. Such a great defensive comback at the end there. I was a little bit worried about playing Memphis but after tonight's test, I'm feeling better. That which does not knock us out of March Madness, only makes us stronger.

GO BRUINS!!!!!
