So... I dont think we can go completely bald on top because Faust might be a little worried about his look when he shaves it all off on Sunday.. but I do remember Faust with a buzzed haircut and it is definitely a good look for him.... (see below, ignore Bernie)

Eye think... Game 4 is the biggest game in Mavs franchise history
Eye think... Game 3 already was
Eye think... Dirk Nowitzki is currently the best player in the NBA
Eye think... He will never be remembered as an all-time great if the Mavs don't win this series
Eye think... Dwayne Wade is too good too hate, and eye would like to hate him
Eye think... JeBron Lames isn't as good as he thinks, and is therefore highly hateable
Eye think... The Mavs have adopted the US national soccer team's approach to fall behind early, make cool comebacks later
Eye think... that stategy often falls short
Eye think... The key to the Mavs success depends Shawn Marion and Peja Stoijavajcicjic, who apparently decided to go back to Serbia after lighting up LA
Eye think... Mario Chalmers is a nice player
Eye think... Chris Bosh is a Jaberwocky
Eye think... that my polite removal from a Nicaraguan restaurant after punching a chair at the end of game 3 was justified
Eye think... Nicaragua should change the nation's name to "Everything costs a dollar"
Eye think... Eye'm going to bed and will pray for the Mavs, as well as poor people and Marc Miller

Also, is it just me or did it seem that when the Heat beat the the Celtics, they acted like they'd won the championship? LeBron and DWade hugging, elation, confetti, etc.
I enjoyed watching the Bulls beat the crap out them yesterday and I hope they win the series. I also hope JeBron Lames never wins a title.
Predictions for the next 2 weeks:
* Wade gets a flagrant foul and mildly injures a Bull player, perhaps the great Taj. Four minutes later, Wade's childhood home in southside Chicago is shot at, even though he hasn't lived there for 8 years.
* The Heat start blaming Chris Bosh, even though he scored 30 yesterday. Can't be Bron's or DWade's fault.
* Mike Bibby actually disappears on the court, a la Marty McFly's Back to the Future family photo.
* Derrick Rose dunks on Wade and the Sears Tower falls, only to land on Michael Jordan's United Center statue, which keeps it from hitting the ground. No injuries are reported.
* Joakim Noah tries to eat Mario Chalmers.
Other series:
* Mavs win game 1, it is because they were rested. Mavs lose game 1, "they were rusty". Somewhere both those headlines have already been written with fake quotes waiting to be published.
* Ibaka hurts his hand slapping the JumboTron on a jumpball. Cuban asks for him to be fined.
* DeShawn Stevenson begins celebrating 3-pointers made in warm-ups.
* Russell Westbrook records 4 assists/game to himself.
* Everybody on Earth talks about TX-Oklahoma Red River Shootout Part Deux. Yeeehaw!!
* James Hardin announces that he is actually a gay fish.
* Kendrick Perkins gets two fouls at halftime, putting Dallas in a one-in-one situation before the second half begins.
* Jason Kidd named GQ's Weirdest Looking Man Alive contest.
I love the NBA.

"Tyson Chandler is a the second best center in the NBA." -Adam Faust |
Obviously, I am not the fairest judge of how good the Mavs really are- but I think this is the best team in this mediocre franchises history. I'd love to hear how others feel about the Mavericks dismantling of the champs, and their chances going forward.

It is day 2 of smoke free Faust. It is actually pretty fucking miserable. I thought I was being a pussy, but I smoke a lot and I am pretty sure my body is going through withdrawals. I want to fucking slap the shit out of any one who looks at me cross. Any way, I just read a blog advising me to share my cravings and weakness with my friends. I feel like the more people I share it with the less chance I will fail.
I need to be held accountable. I need support as well. I feel like I sound like a puss writing all of this stuff, but I don't care, it's time to quit for good.
Peace.

I dont have US cable television but stumbled upon the White House correspondents speech the other night in a hotel and loved every second of it. For about 45 minutes, I felt like an American again. Ahhh. It was nice. I forgot how much I missed decent sarcasm.
Say what you will about Barry Obama, but, forget economic policy, name me another President that has the comedic timing and self-ease as this man.
Seth Meyers's bit was pretty funny too.
Oh and I think Osama Bin Laden is dead.
The LA Times is reporting that OJ Simpson did it.

Dear IC, I would like to cordially invite you all to LouFest this summer in St. Louis. It is held in Forest Park, which is about 2 blocks from my dojo. This is not some lame MN camping invite that turns to vapor, but instead a true event that will live in our hearts and minds for years to come. It is a two day event August 27-28 and is only $64 for a 2 day pass. Come, join me, won't you? Lineup includes:
THE ROOTS + TV ON THE RADIO
CAT POWER + DEERHUNTER + !!!
THE HOLD STEADY + SURFER BLOOD
DOM + DAS RACIST + THE LOW ANTHEM + KINGS GO FORTH
LOST IN THE TREES + UME + SLEEPY SUN + TROUBADOUR DALI
JUMBLING TOWERS + OLD LIGHTS + JON HARDY & THE PUBLIC
NOTE: If you dont come, you are a homo.
So, there is talk that the Bengals like Dalton at the top of the 2nd round. With Carson Palmer saying he will never play another snap for the Bengals, there is a good chance Andy could be under center when this lockout ends. The question is whether that locker room will be accepting of a right wing, Christian, ginger. I am going to guess it isnt the best fit. Thoughts?

This is my second 30-year old post, yes I know. Maybe pyschologically I am expecting some seismic mental shift where my youth evaporates and I lose all interest in things like bad drunken hip-hop dancing (see NYEve) or smoking schwag on a Saturday night at the beach. Probably not.
Anyhow, I recently thought about where I was for each birthday during my 20th decade. They are as follows:
20th: Acapulco, Mexico, spring break Soph. year. Got drunk and obnoxious. Matt Lopez pushed me into a wall. Made out with a Chi-O at a ridiculous spring break club.
21st: Day after spring break, living in West Lowden. Brown, Mazur, Portillo and I think Lund went with me to The Library. I got drunk. Then high. Then passed out and didn't go to classes the next day.
22nd: Had two tests that I "stressed" about (probably pretty important material). Hot SMU girlfriend brought me Chick-Fil-A from Dallas. Studied that night for test the next day, which was also most likely very important material.
23rd: Portillo, Faust and I celebrated in Weiss's and Bear's house on Lubbock while they were out of town for college spring break. Portillo broke in. We drank, got high, played foosball and went to the Oui.
24th: While everyone was at Lubahn's bachelor party, I was at my cousin's wedding at DisneyWorld. Cousin arrived to wedding in Cinderella carriage and the Mickey Mouse song played at reception. Great times.
25th: Living in Memphis, came home to Dallas and went to a party with TCU soccer friends. I scolded them most of the night about not caring enough about poor people (I was sooo enlightened). Met up with Faust. Went to party. Ended up on Faust's couch with mammoth boobed girl. PG-13 events ensued.
26th: Chicago. Woke up to find car window had been smashed, running shoes gone. Taught some orphans had to dominate life just like I was. Came home to meal cooked by Melissa Fink.
27th: Hated my roommates. Detested them. However, on 27th birthday, went with one of them to check out local bars we'd never been to. I picked a spot where there was one guy on the bar passed out. We left. He took me to an unknown place that turned out to be an amazing Brazilian bar with 61 hot latinas and samba music. French kissed a latina who also had a March 18th birthday. Only day I ever liked my roommate.
28th: Wasn't drinking for Lent (after Faust's wedding). Ate Peruvian dinner with friends from work and went home early. Not drinking is lame.
29th: Brown came to visit Costa Rica. Took bus to coast, rented bikes, drank all day by the beach and hung out with two Danish girls at a bar with live Calypso music. Girls came back to our hostel to smoke ganja except all I had were pencil shavings. They went home disappointed, Brown laughed at me while I passed out.
30th:?? Who knows. Trying not to tell anyone so all my non-friends here will leave me alone. Might go roller skating with girlfriend.
Most common Birthday denominator: Drinking
2nd Most: Friends on this blog
I can only hope that trend continues.
* Last thought. Recently read the following in Esquire's "What I've Learned" interview with Aaron Sorkin, who wrote A Few Good Men and the Social Network (I believe I bashed him about a month ago).
"There are signposts along the way of getting older. The first is when the Playmate of the Year is younger than you are. Suddenly, you're starting to feel dirty because you are 23 and she's 19 and you really shouldn't be looking at that picture."
"The next thing that happens is professional athletes are younger than you are."
"Then Coaches and Managers are younger than you are."
"And finally, the last one that happens: You're the same age as the President of the US."
Good luck this decade friends.

It's still on. On TV. This show dates god. Who watches it and why do they watch it? Also, Vanna White has not aged in the 3,000 yrs it's been running. Explain this to me. How? How, Vanna? Are you a fucking T1000? Did you and Indiana Jones find the holy grail, Vanna? If Vanna White and Charlie Sheen had a kid it would absolutely rule the world. There's no way you could take it out, the thing would have 100 lives. It would run on coke, eat glass and out crazy a somali pirate.

it hadnt previously occurred to me that outside of the middle east there might be rioting too. ukraine: one silly nuclear reaction and a score of years, and even lincoln can't stop the upheaval and unheaving of breasts.
also, anderson cooper wouldve enjoyed being sexually assaulted (post below), whereas lara logan... not so much. it's sad when a hottie gets molested/raped. :( thank allah for the veiled women that saved her life though. positive onda in the direction of the logan family.
how's the clan(clint, lube, butz excluded) fairing in this oh so cali dreamin weather we been having? if we can talk about anything, anything at all, it's probably the weather, huh? team!!!

I was at a party last night. I was talking with my wife, her friend Lynn and a guy who recently got engaged to one of their friends. They were asking him about the proposal. He said, "When I proposed her blue eyes turned almost pink. It was beautiful. It looked like a sunset." Lynn melted, Piper said "awwww," and I just stared blankly at him. I feel his behavior was unbefitting of a man.
Am I wrong?
