Quote Of The Day: Auto response from Nebo33: i roll with dead mike, and lemay too
youll look like a PSP the way we'll play you
i roll with showtime, i roll with merriweather
cause pimps of a feather gotta pimp together
Props Of The Day: Deez- One word "Sequins"
Let the job search begin. So much for those 25 resumes i took to law firms, they clearly didn't do the trick. And being back home even fruther solidifies my hatred for MTV. The MADE and Crossroads marathon is BEAT. Even if Crossroads was when Britney was still hot, before she put on weight and started making herself busted.
A-Rod getting fiesty at the All England Club, I like it. Looking good Andy.
And Michelle Wie looking strong at the US Open.

I was just surfing ESPN.com and I was checking out LeBron's stats...
He is only 20 years old, and All-Star, and he averaged, 27 pts, 7 Rebounds, and 7 Assists last year. These numbers are insane. INSANE. 2nd year in the league.
And I've got his shoes.

Batman Begins: definately the best Batman movie since the first one, and probably the best one yet. Much more of a dramatic, story telling film than any of the last 3 incarnations. Great story, you really get to know Bruce Wayne a lot more, but still plenty of action. And, Katie Holmes is really beautiful, but I can't look at her quite the same knowing that she is about to marry Tom Cruise. wow.
So, Shav Randolph decided to STAY in the NBA draft. Probably one of the worst draft decisions ever. He would have had a better chance of being drafter if he went right out of high school. His best two games at Duke were the first 2 of his career, and his 3 seasons have been pretty much below expectations. He probably should have gone to NCSU anyway. But staying in the draft??? I mean unless he had some amazing workouts, which I doubt since I havn't heard anything about him (granted, I've been in Europe), but he should have stayed at Duke for his senior year, he MIGHT have had a chance to improve his stock, and since he's probably not making it to the NBA anyway (at least not through the draft) he would at least have a degree from one of the best schools in the nation. Maybe his dad had a lot to do w/ the decision. Word is his dad took over the family business and bankrupted it... so maybe he thinks Shav can save the finances... who knows. That is just rumor/speculation no evidence to back that up but hey, whatever. I just wish that he had fullfilled his potential a little more, got to feel bad for the kid, so much hype, so much talent, just not realized, and now he seems to be making a HUGE mistake. Going to Duke may have been a mistake, but thats pretty much a sunk cost at this point, why make it worse by staying in the draft?
Shav, Shav, Shav...
Bottom line, I hope he gets drafted, and I hope he makes it, but I just don't think its really gonna happen.
Oh, and its great to be back in the States for the summer. Nice to go to the mall and see people that look like me, and lots of pretty girls in skirts. Welcome home.

Its now almost 4am, which mean's its almost 9am in Dublin, meaning that I have more or less been awake for 25 hours. And for some reason I am not retiring just yet. The trip was an amazing experience, full of lots of fun, lots of laughs, lots of stories, and lots of friends, and I'm sure that some of those stories and memories will appear here in the coming days and weeks. For now lets just say its a good thing I had "3 hour" layovers at both of my stops today, because after delays I really didn't have much time, oh and after waiting in a really long Q at Heathrow for Philly passengers who were in serious need of a plane. So Once we finally got over the ocean, the in flight entertainment had to be reset 3 times, and they were out of chicken for dinner. The lasagne was good though, and I enjoyed Million Dollar Baby, a nice break from my 300+ pages of reading. For some reason I couldn't sleep... maybe it was the fact taht it was 11pm (Ireland time) and still very bright outside, strange. So when I finally get home, guess what, US Air has lost my luggage, great, thanks guys, I am going to complain and hope to get compensated. The great thing is, this is the second time in 34 days that my luggage has been lost, last time it was by British Airways, and it also involved my luggage being left in Philly, they got it corrected and drove it out to me the next day, but still, my mates didnt appreciate me having to wear the same dirty clothes I had traveled in again. So basically, every time ive flown (or tried to fly) through Philly I have encountered either insane delays, or lost luggage. So, AVOID flying through the ILLaDelph at all costs. And I can't look at my pictures yet b/c I lost my battery charger. Genius, but not as Genius as the bartender at Guinness who thought she could get away with ripping us off. Nice Try Bitch, hope you get fired.
Since I'm still not really tired I guess I'm obligated to facebook for at least five minutes.
HOME, then W-S
