Crazy ending to a Div III football game, involving 15 laterals. I've watched it three times and they all look legal. If the video were better, this would become a "The band is on the field!!" moment.

2004 2007!
Two championships in 4 years?! We're not turning into the New Yankees, are we? Nah. Sometimes nice guys do finish first, that's all.

Game 7 Tonight
Cool to see the Dropkick Murphys will be performing the anthem. I know there's no real reason to think Dice-K will be dominant tonight but there was no reason to think J.D. Drew would do anything in the first inning with the bases loaded last night either. So, yeah, I'm thinking it could still be our year, again.

Mrs. BoneDaddy had already seen these by the time I passed it along to her, but some of you might enjoy this photo collection of the World's Most Beautiful Libraries. A little too European and cathedral-ly for my tastes - I figured Yale's Beinecke was a lock - but some undeniably beautiful rooms in there.

Good News, Bad News. Well, the Yankees lost, which means the Indians will have to knock the Red Sox out since you can't count on the National League to do anything. In good news, C-dog and I both won our bets with Phinster in the same week. C-dog picked the Red Sox to go farther than the Yankees and I picked a ticket other than Gingrich/Rice to win the 08 election. Gingrich is not running, which will make it really hard for him to win. (That's the second bit of bad news, by the way. A Gingrich campaign would have been hysterical. Dan Quayle level of comedy. And he had no chance to actually win and damage the country. There was no downside to Newt '08 so I'm sad tonight, except for winning $20.)

Worst. Bumper Sticker. Combo. Ever. I saw a beater of a car sporting the fading "W 04" sticker you still see here and there. You know the one with the flag sticking off the top of the W? That most owners have since snuck out of their houses in the night and scrapped off their cars? Looking over their shoulders to make sure no one's looking? Yeah, that one.

On the other side, a bumper sticker said, "I read your e-mail." Now, this guy probably wasn't one of the Bush goons who probably does read our e-mail. Those guys drive nice cars. Still, isn't it fitting that a W supporter would make a joke (or pass on someone else's joke) about invading your privacy? It's almost like a W supporter was also a Metallica fan and put Kill 'Em All next to the W 04 sticker. Except more subtle.

Ridley Scott Has Finally Created the Blade Runner He Always Imagined. No more voice-over. The new cut is playing for two weeks in a great huge classic theater in NYC.
