not the cartoon dog, alas, maybe next time... i mean, was no mila, but he did have a great theme song, didn't he?... da da da da da da da da un-derdog! lol...
anyway, as much as i am not a fan of the southeast conference in anything (for many reasons), it is a challenge not to root for mississippi state baseball because the school has only one one national championship is it's 100+ year history... that was in disc golf (frisbee golf, don't laugh) in 2009... they are in the college baseball world series finals... if north carolina beats ucla, i will be rooting for miss state... specially since nc is ranked #1 in the country... i love underdogs... but if ucla wins, well, california girls, ya know (whatever that means)... ucla is ranked #15 (the lowest ranking of any team who made it to the college world series) and ms is ranked #10, so they lose their underdog edge and i'd definitely rather live in cali than nc (though the coast is sweet there too)... yeah, sometimes i choose a school to root for based on how much i want to live where the school is located... my alma mater (like most new york city universities) isn't in the running for national championships (talk about underdogs), so i have other criteria for picking favorites and one is that favorites are often momentary (that goes for pro sports too... in pro sports it's often based on individual players)... so anyway, go ucla :)
yup, he is a fickle character, ain't he?... narf :)

musical distractions
If people had visible signs or meters that told something about them, what would you want it to tell you?
dumb poll (above), smart responders
all the previous poll votes were somehow erased, so, nevermind... ironically or coincidentally or whatever, the results were very close in practical numbers to the results above shown with just three votes, if you understand the mathematics behind that extrapolative reasoning... i will probably remove the poll at some point... it is a ridiculously useless feature...
SEARCH ME
the thing is, with my tendency to babble and meander and whine and allow distraction to take the lead more often than not, even in this blog that sort of meant to merge brevity with focus like some bloggers do, searching for key words does not always lead to specific information about the subject of that key word... but... here is a start at an easy way to search for key words in this blog... use the search box at the top of the blog to search for words not listed here... if ya wanna, that is... and feel free to suggest words to add to this search shortcut section... click on the words below :)
WORK ... JOB ... MUSIC ... LOVE ... SOFTBALL ... KA ... 42 ... LOL ... LAM ... LAA ... ... ... ...
