Consider me down with any scene where the alpha males begin their snappy rejoinders with "To be quite frank…" And I have to note that for all the terror rained down by these witches, the Diag still looks quite tranquil.
The Less Bad: "If my bra is a threat to national security, we’re in big trouble."
The More Bad: Photographers advised to pack a gun to avoid losing their gear bag.
The Awesome: Penn vs. the TSA. "…freedom is kind of a hobby with me, and I have disposable income that I’ll spend to find out how to get people more of it."
- I always hoped having real casinos in Detroit would lead to more concerts. $200 EWF tix was not what I had in mind, though. #

This is one of the better DDR tournament videos I have had the opportunity to enjoy. Things I like about it:
- Dude wears a costume complete with white mask.
- Dude cocks a Nintendo Zapper at the beginning of his routine.
- Dude c-walks on the arrows, thereby risking his life should he ever DDR in certain neighborhoods.
- Dude busts out a galloping windmill butt-slap near the end of his routine.
It’s hard to tell from the verbal cues the game gives him how well he’s hitting the arrows, but I give this clip an A for Entertainment.
Tickets for the Earth, Wind, and Fire gig christening the new MGM Grand Ballroom start at $150. Start. Someday maybe I will see a show in here and be blown away by its intimacy and acoustics. Perhaps it is a regular Bourbon Tabernacle.
I suspect this concert is pitched toward affluent fiftysomethings who were waiting for a band like EWF to play in a venue with free lighted parking and just may stop off for some Canasta on the way out. This beats the country acts that graced the former MGMGD’s Stage Bar, but still… Victor and I saw EWF a few years ago in a park in Lansing for a fraction of this price.
But I guess that’s the way of the world.
- I like how TwitterPod changes my iChat status when I tweet, but I hate how it always crashes after I tweet and I have to restart #

- Just DD’d the WRT. 130Kbps wireless! Got some tweaking to do before it becomes the main router. SSID/passphrase suggestions anyone? #

- I just got a Linksys 150N! I hope it works with DD-WRT. [Says so on the Wiki, must be true.] #
- Man, have you seen the traffic circles on Maple in West Bloomfield? The area was and is tore up, but these might make it driveable. #
