  • A lot of people hate — HATE Brent Musburger<\/span>; I think Hunter S. Thompson<\/span> wanted to strangle him with his bare hands, but never got around to it. That being said, I think I am immune from truly hating Musburger because his weekly announcement “YOU ARE LOOKING LIVE…” at the beginning of The NFL Today<\/span> way back when. He should do that for college football as well.\n
  • I kind of like the “Life Will be There Tomorrow” song that Outback Steakhouse uses in their radio spots. I like it much more than the restaurant in fact.\n
  • Over the last month Snoop Dogg<\/span> has been arrested at John Wayne and Bob Hope airports. If there is a Frank Sinatra Airport what are the odds he will get arrested there in November?\n
  • How is Firefox 2<\/span>? Is there anything I should know before I make the switch?\n
  • Sheryl Crow<\/span>‘s “Everday is a Winding Road” has been used in commercials for at least two different car companies. I guess her songs go through car companies like she goes through men.\n
  • Recent earworms: Eastbound and Down (Jerry Reed), Nobody Bothers Me (Jhoon Rhee), that Outback song\n
  • The trend towards making nicknames from the first syllable of two words is tiresome. Enough with MoCo<\/span> (Montgomery County) WaPo<\/span> (Washington Post) and half the new hip neighborhoods in New York and some of wannabes in D.C. NoVa<\/span> and JoePa<\/span> get to stay because they predate the birth of most of the people who use MoCo<\/span> or NoMa. Stop trying so hard to be cool. Nearlington<\/span> also has to go, though I don’t personally know anybody lame enough to use it. That one might have worked if Arlington was shaped in such a way that there was a clearly defined northeastern section of the county.\n
  • It turns out Geno’s Steaks<\/span>, the Philly cheesesteak joint that made headlines for their English only policy, uses South American beef<\/span><\/a> (The Inky<\/span>). Pat’s King of Steaks<\/span> on the opposite corner also uses “immigrant beef” sometimes. It appears that Jim’s<\/span>, my personal favorite (though I have not been to Pat’s yet), uses “USDA choice top round western steer beef.” I assume that is the western U.S.\n
  • Erica and I have only been to Woo Lae Oak<\/span> which recently suffered fire damage to the exterior<\/span><\/a>, once. It was okay, but as someone once said, “it was awfully expensive for a place where you have to cook your own food.”\n
  • I am getting annoyed waiting for Blogger Beta<\/span> to be available for people who use Blogger, but have their own hosts. I want categories. I hope it has a scheduler too. Then again, since this morning’s post was delayed by 3 hours by Blogger troubles, categories should be the least of my worries.\n
  • The first frost of the season in Pentagon City was Oct. 26\n
  • For several years I have enjoyed reading Southern chef Robert St. John’s<\/span> column. It appears in one of “my” newspapers. St. John is now posting the columns on a blog<\/span><\/a>, so you can read them too. If I am ever in Mississippi, I will go to one of his restaurants, even though Southern food has little appeal to me.\n
  • Big green guide signs with clearview font are starting to appear on I-66. I hate clearview font<\/span><\/a>, bring back button copy FHWA Series E<\/span><\/a>!\n
