The only silver lining
« on: November 18, 2011, 09:03:52 am »
I can't remember the last time TZ had more traffic than B&Q.
I believe there ought to be a constitutional amendment outlawing AstroTurf and the designated hitter. I believe in the sweet spot, soft-core pornography, opening your presents Christmas morning rather than Christmas Eve and I believe in long, slow, deep, torture of Bud Selig.

With the exception of 10/28 (game 7 of the World Series), yesterday was the most page views we've had since July 30.

There's also been a smattering of Clarks.

BTW, is "smattering" the proper collective noun for Clarks? 
Courage is what it takes to stand up and speak; courage is also what it takes to sit down and listen.

A Spacking of Clarks?
It's my estimation that every man ever got a statue made of 'em was one kinda sombitch or another.

Well that didn't take long.

Where?

Houston. House of Blues. Not my favorite venue but Gary didn't call me to ask.

Closest they got to here was ATL. One of my all-time nirvana shows was Wilco opening the Jayhawks on the AM/Tomorrow the Green Grass tour. Small venue, dead center about 5 people deep. I'll see the Jayhawks again, just not sure where.
