I'm trying to catch up on some things I have been told about or directed to.

Here is a month-old snippet from Cleveland Magazine on the guy we call "Pink Hat". Mind you, I am not a fan. He has no philosophy about wearing hats, except "Look at me! I'm an Attention Whore!"

Catching up with Guy Lafleur. His son is in trouble, but they really love Guy in Quebec.

Tim Goodman talks about whittling his satellite channels to a workable number. He got it down to 284.

We all know Barack Obama bowled a 37. But I did not know that his bowling partner, Sen. Bob Casey, threw a 71. How did he escape scrutiny?

The Collegiate Nationals Eating Champion is a Canadian. Smoked meat was not on the menu.

Mick Jones wrote a tune called "Don't Tase Me, Bro". I hope he puts those "Whoo!"s in there like "The Globe".

Meal of Links

Chef Ramsay stops yelling long enough to cook the perfect scrambled eggs. Hey, where's the bacon fat?

TV's Best 50 Comedies. "Green Acres" yes, "Beverly Hillbillies" no? Idiots.

David Blaine holds his breath again for a try at a world record. This time, he made it! Unfortunately, he didn't explode.

Exercise Yard

The Cavs suffered through another game they could not close at home and lose to the Wizards. The fact remains, bravado aside, Washington has now played the Cavs tough in Games 1 and 5 here, and Game 4 there, winning only one of those games. Toss the blowouts. If they somehow win at Washington on Friday, things will get dicey for the return trip on Sunday. Poor shooting and rebounding killed the Cavs tonight.
