Blogger's Block

Ok, so I haven't posted for a while, and for that, I apologize. I simply haven't had much to write about. Not too many exciting happenings in my life at the moment, and those that were noteworthy were really only of interest to people present at the time. Hoserfest was awesome, and a big thanks to Darci and her family for hosting us all.

So...what to write about? What to write...well, I could check my e-mail. Maybe there's something interesting in there.

Let's see, 2,178 messages...and nothing from my readers. Reader. Singular. Beyond that, nothing even worth talking about.

Well, there was this one, from mpo_sekretariat:

qwty pajchvvtba usyn jhkiho jwxuvb pajoya

I am...unsure what that means. However, if you note the usage of the non-specific, partial, non-selective deictic "usyn", followed by the third-person singular verb in the genitive case, with no proclitic, "jhkiho", as well as the overall subjunctive mood, you'll realize that I have no idea what I'm talking about and am just throwing out grammatical terms. And that I just wanted to use the term "proclitic".

I thought about using this space to outlay some of my feelings on Barry Bonds, as he has recently broken Hank Aaron's record, but after the google search, "Barry Bonds" +blog yielded 11,700,000 results, I figured I'd probably be echoing a few million other blogger's comments, so I think I'll leave that one alone.

I got a Wii recently. It's fun. Lot's of blue LEDs. Blue LEDs are neat. I got nothing.

Back to sports, the Red Sox lead is down to 5 games (at the time of writing), and I've been hearing about Red Sox fans "panicking"...um, why? Yeah, I understand how much it would suck to lose this division to a team that at one point was battling Tampa Bay for 4th place, but what is the sense in panicking? What are we going to change by flipping out and symbolically "leaping off the Tobin Bridge"? Especially given the fact that the Sox haven't lost anything yet...sometimes I think this region is just a little too crazy about baseball.

And speaking of crazy, check out Stranger Than Fiction (2006). Great, subtle performance by Will Farrell. Don't expect anything like his other comedy roles. Best Will Farrell movie I've seen since...um...

Right, so when I was cleaning my apartment recently, I found a piece of folded up notebook paper. Upon unfolding, I found a woman's handwriting. Now I'm really intrgued. Reading down the page, my heart races, my breath quickens, and my legs go a little weak. Do you know what I'm holding in my hand? Quotes that never made the quote book page...I found the lost quotes!

1.13.07 UNH vs Dartmouth
Gibber: That tickles me in my...tickle spots.

Darci: Nothing like sharing a fruit roll-up in a car.
Gibber: Doesn't get more romantic than that.

Gibber: I need to lose about 400lbs.
Gib's Mom: Cut your head off.

Gibber: It was a very eventful ride, topped off by my mom.

Gibber: He turns Friday on the 30.


Check back in a week for a new post. There probably won't be one, but it doesn't hurt to check, right?
