the good, the bad and the ugly

being that today is a day that the majority of this side of the planet is spending being very serious and respectful, i will spend it being idiotic and disrespectful, though i will not be so disrespectful as to insult the people to whom i should be respectful.  instead, i will just avoid talking about the subject.

the good...

a New York woman managed to win a SECOND million + dollar jackpot in the lottery.  even though this is good for that woman, it pisses me off since the best i ever do is free tickets and the occasional $10, which is usually used to buy more lottery tickets.  a friend of mine always used to say that the lottery is just a tax on people who are bad at math.  i tend to agree, but will continue to be bad at math until i die or win big.  whichever happens first.

the bad...

a pro cyclist got pissy and punched his team's bus.  i'm pretty sure that the bus has forgiven him and decided not to press charges, but the cyclist will miss the rest of the season with a broken finger.  the lesson learned here - don't punch hard things.

the ugly...

bridget jones's panties are up for auction in an effort to raise money for someone other than me.  do you think that i'd be able to make good money auctioning off my underpants?  is there much of a market for used canadian underpants? if so, i'd be more than happy to start selling them off.  should i start the bidding at $5 a pair?
