Cougar Hunter

I went out with a married friend of mine from work a couple weeks back. Long story short, he was all over an older chick. Come Monday, I posed to him the following question: how old was she? Here is his reply.

we have nothing to talk about.

at least the bs i was up to was blatantly for (alcohol-induced) sport. to answer your question, 50 or 60. i didn’t make her year, i made the her next 10 . and, for the record, i didn’t take off my ring and flat out told her i was married and was just talking. i went out of my way to make it clear i was just f%$#ing with someone, whereas one (not me, of course) could make the argument that your crush on the brown-haired cutie was a little more insidious. neither of us deserve a gold star for friday night. as is i feel like an amazing jackass, comforted though i am that it was just for sport. but no harm, no foul. my concern here is that this bit of info eeks out next happy hour: i would not want jason (etc.) to know, as our wives regularly base their decision to hang out on whether the other is present.

Hey everybody, I made a Muxtape!

If you have yet to hear about Muxtape, it is a site where you upload MP3s to make your very own digital mixed tape of sorts that you can share with anyone you wish. So, if you've ever wondered what my music tastes are (and let's face it, who hasn't), you can sample my Muxtape here.

NCAA Tourney Bracket Tip

Kansas only loses in the tournament to teams who have names that begin with "B" (see Bradley and Bucknell). Unless you think they will win it all, you'd better put either Butler or Boise State through the the Final Four. You could have them lose to BYU, Baylor, or Belmont in the finals... but I'm trying to be realistic here.

GoogleWreck

Now that KC has Street View, I've found a new way to waste countless hours at work. The shot below is one of my favorites. The car pushed up on the sidewalk... yeah, that's my office assistant. Also, note the damage to the Google car's front end. If you back up a frame, you can see her coming from the right. I wonder if this would be admissible in court.
