Flotsam and Jetsam

Miscellaneous thoughts and observations.

It would be amusing if the news about Tim Tebow wanting to play pro baseball was an elaborate prank by Jimmy Kimmel... And you thought Donald Trump's Tweets were crazy... Groin Tightness would be a good name for a boy band... In related Olympics news - Roger Goodell and the NFL have announced they are suspending Michael Phelps for the first four races of the 2020 Olympic Games for "reasons"... Cool - guy on stationary bike is cycling through the UK in virtual reality... I think the Yankees should sign Tim Tebow to help with their sagging ticket sales... Heh heh - awesome!... Just saying but Tebow is basically the same age as when Ichiro first tried to play Major League Baseball in the US... Nixon's Haircut would be a good name for a band (or a tax deduction)... Ian McShane is shaping up for a monster 2017. First there's his starring role in American Gods and at about the same release time he has a supporting role in John Wick: Chapter Two...

- Tolkien alert! This is both beautiful and delicious.

- Funny because it's true!

- This has a certain kind of logic

- In Boston, home of the Super Bowl Champions, sports talk radio bozos are whining about who the Patriots gave the franchise tag to. Meanwhile in Buffalo.

- Hats off to Jimmy Kimmel for taking it to the anti-vax crowd

Now in order to win 95 games the Red Sox would have to go 75-38 the rest of the way. Good luck with that... Yesterday a bettor won $6.67 million on the Pick Six at Gulfstream. The cost of the winning ticket was $7,603 which means this was no casual bettor... Jimmy Kimmel's Celebrities Read Mean Tweets... "I went to my doctor and told him 'My penis is burning'. He said that means someone is talking about it" - Gary Shandling... Hollywood is so out of ideas it wouldn't surprise me to see Casablanca II: A Beautiful Friendship starring Aston Kutcher and Charlie Sheen... Ha ha - this was exactly how I felt about the Kayne West / Kim Kardashian wedding!... What would I do for a Klondike Bar? I guess go to the store and pay a buck and a half. That's what I'd do for a Klondike Bar.... Donald Sterling's favorite Christmas song? I'm Dreaming of a White Mistress... Everything science knows about hangovers and how to cure them... "A million Marines could not take Tarawa in a hundred years." Japanese admiral before the US Marines took the island in 3 days...

Stuff I found interesting or amusing and thought I'd share.

- Rand Paul summarizes Barack Obama's NSA policies

- Projecting a Jon Lester contract extension. As an informed Red Sox fan I would be happy with a 4-year contract with a 5th year option at $20 million per year.

- Charlie Pierce is also not happy with Obama's NSA policies

- 5 epic drinking stories

- Jimmy Kimmel's take on Obamacare. As Homer would say, "It's funny because it's true".

Cool Videos

Some cool videos I wanted to share.

- President George Bush's interview with the Golf Channel is well worth the 16 minutes of your time. President Bush is classy as always.  I've played a few times at the Cape Arundel course he mentioned a couple of times.

- Jimmy Kimmel vs Kanye West. Actually two videos but both funny.

- Jaguar hunts and kills a crocodile. Joe Rogan was also talking about this video.

- Lost "hit" Wunderbar by Tenpole Tudors. The video is not that great but the chorus really sticks in your head. Great drinking song.

I hope you are having a great Valentine's Day. On this day in 1884 - Teddy Roosevelt's mother and wife both passed away. As you can see from his entry in his diary - it was not a good day for Teddy... Jimmy Kimmel really doesn't seem to like Jay Leno... I love David Ortiz but there is NO WAY the Red Sox offer David Ortiz arbitration next season. If they knew they would be paying over $14 million then I doubt they would have offered arbitration this year either... Heh heh - nursery rhymes as read by Game of Thrones author George R.R. Martin...  In a person's life a split second can often do as much damage as a split atom... Just saying - I have never seen the movie The Bodyguard and God willing - I never will... I really want one of these - the new Tesla Model X SUV with gull wings.
