assorted boolcheat

The city is as empty as I've ever seen it. I didn't even have to wait for my $11 haircut today. I got the cross-eyed guy, and he's usually pretty good, but today he did Level 19 damage to my head. I don't know what that means, but you and me both know it's serious. I guess I asked for it, because he was all "finished" and then I requested that he take "just a little bit more" off. I think that's every barber's cue to start carving animal shapes into your scalp.

So I've solved the Barry Bonds dilemma. As long as he doesn't pass Aaron, everything will be fine. We'll all remember him as just another cheater, and he won't even own the career HR record. Sure, it's too late to do anything about him ruining McGwire's 70, oops I mean Maris's 61, but it doesn't really bother me that Bonds passed Ruth. Ruth was only in second place anyway, and he played against nothing but honkies with doo doo in their pants. Not his fault, but still. Come to think of it, maybe the real single-season home run record holder should be the dude who hit the most in a season between 1947 and 1960 -- these are the years between Jackie Robinson's arrival and the first 162-game season. For ten non-googling genius points, who would hold this "purest" single-season home run record?

I hit the Apple Store on 58th today. That shit is big. I hate the whole idea of it, it sickens me, but I would gladly take one of each item in the store. Thank you.

Damn, that 6.6.6 was soooo scary. Yikes. Oh, wait, it was actually more Tuesday than scary. Just Tuesday. Thanks.

Baby Bungle is sick and that's no fun. She's just pulling out of it, and I hope to take her to the Yankee game on Sunday. Ma Bungle got us a pair of fancy box seats for an early Father's Day gift, and I am excited to teach the little one all the classic Yankee chants, such as "Der-ek Jee-ter" (so clever!) and "You ain't Matsui, but you'll have to do-ey!"

If I was an A's fan, I'd be all "Zito...whoa-oh-oh-ooooh!" (to the tune of "Lido Shuffle")

If the little one is not significantly recovered look for a post here around 11am announcing that one ticket is up for grabs. There may be a contest involved.

New High Socks and Short Shorts is up and howling for your attention. It might be all screwy because it's too long and daunting for me to proofread. Print it out and read it in the can later this afternoon.
