I am a big question mark...
My gosh, is it so hard to check to see if all your contents were flushed down the toilet after you've finished using it? Are people just that forgetful? Or are they that sadistic? Blech!!! Flush, dang nabbit!
Eye of the tiger
At 60 years old by the time it comes out, CAN he still have the eye of the tiger? Yes folks, for those of you who have not yet heard the news...there is talk of making ANOTHER Rocky movie. I totally thought it was a joke when I first heard about it, that it was just not possible. But I guess I was mistaken, because there IS going to be another movie... Supposedly he is supposed to come out of retirement and fight a couple of low key matches and then sparks fly as people start to talk about a possible championship fight... I'm probably gonna go see it...simply because it's Rocky...and well, for sheer curiousity.
NBA Dress Code
David Stern has sent down yet another mandate from his throne...dress code for all the players.
The NBA has announced that a dress code will go into effect at the start of the season. Players will be required to wear business-casual attire when involved in team or league business. They can't wear visible chains, pendants or medallions over their clothes.
What's so bad about a dress code? I really don't think that it's such a big deal. Of course, all of the anti-corporate people don't like it...I can understand that. Some people, live Vic the Brick Jacobs, says it's taking away their freedom, they are artists, and need to express themselves. Some say that it's Stern just flexing the fat. And yet, some people have gone as far as saying it is racist, because its aim is to rid the "hip hop" from the league. I really don't see that as the ultimate cause here. Dude, half of america has to abide by a dresscode...I can't wear shorts at work, though I wish I could. It's called professionalism. And seriously, if you don't like what your employer is telling you to do or what you can and can't wear, then you have all the freedom to LEAVE. They say the owners wear whatever they want...um, excuse me, but they're the OWNERS. Freakin babies man...it's so annoying. If it's not 7, 8, and 9 figure contracts, it's about not wanting to abide by a dress code. And freedom of expression? Artistic expresssion? You can do that on your own time, like the rest of us. I think, as with all things, this issue is blowing up into something far bigger than it really is.
