I really want to watch episodes of this show. It posthumously won an emmy, which is cool,but it also has a star-studded cast, including Ben Stiller, Andy Dick (not a fan) Janeane Garofalo (ditto), Bob Odenkirk (yes please) and Judd Apatow (weird right?)
Anyway I didn’t know it existed, and now i want to watch it.

the thing that excites me
is not how good this rotation is:
1. Sabathia 2. Wang 3. Burnett 4. Pettitte 5. Chamberlain
it’s that replacing any one of these guys with phil hughes is still a good rotation.
WatchThis is my dorm’s video for our Dorm Competition. I had very little to do with it, but I’m still extremely proud. I think it’s awesome.
The theme was respect, so we sortof forced a theme of respect into something that was just generally awesome.

I’m in the minority I think, but I’ve always felt like Carlin’s stuff doesn’t really hold up well over the years. That being said, this is a very good point.

highlight of last night's party*
A gang of about 12 of us decides to do a tequila shot at the bar. we walk up to the bar. One of us, my cousin Helen, turned 19 that night. So, after everyone got their glass and their lime and their salt everyone raised their glass and yelled “happy 19th birthday!”
the look on the bartender’s face was priceless

Note to Phil- geotag is not a big word. in fact, it is shorter than both longitude and latitude, which are fairly big words, particularly longitude.

iTunes purge
Every time we get a major break from school (winter, spring, summer) spend a night or two going through my iTunes library and purge it of all the songs I know i won’t miss. As I wrote last year, the goal is “having all the music i love plus the music i might love tomorrow in my itunes library, and nothing else. ” That’s pretty hard. I got it from 12.42 gb a few days ago...
