Fact: if you look carefully in old paintings inspired by God to the artist where Satan is depicted, you may notice small gnat-like creatures usually around Old Nick’s ass. These “mythological” creatures essentially serve the purpose of crawling up Satan’s anal cavity, much to his pleasure, and rifling through whatever goodies may be stuck up there ( Read more... )

football, rants, great moments of literary inspiration

I totally 100% emphatically agree. They are complete assholes.

..and artfully written. I doubt I will be able to think of them in the future without imagining anything different.. ;-)

Thanks. It's simply my humble duty to help carry on the work which Bill Hicks referred to as ridding "the world of all these fevered egos that are tainting our collective unconscious and making us pay a higher psychic price than we imagine."

And here I thought my inbox was going to be napalmed by the local lj community.

Or maybe that shoe hasn't dropped yet.

Like I care.

Well, you pointed it out to a "t". This whole Manchester thing might be the next fancy item, now that they have a Super-Bowl win and TPBB has outlived its usefulness to them.

The grandfather of the clan was the wonder in the family, from a lowly watchmaker to a super-rich dude. I am thinking something went wrong in the parenting, or the kids went funny under the protective envelope the rich kids are nurtured in.

I could give a rat's ass about the Bucs--nothing personal, but I pretty much retired from following sports since the Minnesota Twins creamed the Atlanta Braves in the last game of the 1991 World Series and I more or less achieved sports nirvana.

But your opening graph about Satan's Gnats is absolutely inspired. Whatever drugs you're taking, set a few aside in a humidity-free environment so I can give them a try if I ever manage to get back to Tampa again. Yow.

Thank you sir. That's one of the best compliments I've received in a long time. Unfortunately, I have no such drug. If I did, I like to think my bank account would be much larger than it is.

I can only assume that for one moment of time, the voices of Mark Twain and Hunter Thomspon divined simultaneously in my head, creating a separate frequency. That, and the fact that I got up much earlier than normal and drank a shitload of coffee. The crash later on today, I predict, will be a hoot.

The only reason why I kinda care about the Bucs is because my father works for the Bucs. I like it when he tells me about how the players really are. How people think they are soooo big, but that is just the attitudes and egos! That goes for the Glazers too.

No shit:

Saw Derrick Brooks and his wife(?) at Big Mouth Burgers in Centro Ybor. My jaw hit the floor, and he looked a little embarassed by that. I expected he'd be bigger...

I feel bad for the United fans. I would hate to have an American soccer calling tycoon come and buy the team. He will raise the tickets prices there just like he did for the Bucs when he bought them in 95.

I think he's going to sell the Bucs really soon.

On another note, Did you get Tix for Mccartney? I just found out yesterday that he was even coming. If tix weren't 250 I'm sure you would have gotten floor.
