(Only about seven or eight people will understand this message; don't fret if you ain't one of them.) Steve Griffin and I should exchange our previous competition -- the one who could go the longest without posting a message -- for a new competition: most words posted between now and January 1. Are you up for it, sir?

Been awhile, hasn't it?
About the BCS again: sportscasters are complaining that if Tennessee loses next weekend, Nebraska -- a team that couldn't even win its own conference -- will be in the Rose Bowl. Perhaps we should look at the top of the Big 12 regular-season standings again:
Texas: 7-1
Colorado: 7-1
Nebraska: 7-1
Two of those teams made the Big 12 title game, and one didn't. Colorado was picked over Nebraska because of a tiebreaker. Forget about the horrid loss for a moment: does the fact that Colorado went to the championship ahead of Nebraska because of a tiebreaker mean that Colorado is the better team. One of the tiebreakers when the Big 10 champ goes to the Rose Bowl is which team has gone the longest without going to Pasadena. Does that mean that a team that loses the tiebreaker is the worse team?
i sincerely do not know what you are doing here. are you lost? were you
looking for your delicate calico cat, and did you follow her up two flights of stairs
to this room? she is not here. she was here, yes. we gave her a warm bowl of milk, we talked with her about campaign finance reform for a time, and then she bid us good day. i believe she was
going to the post office two blocks down, but i don't quite recall.
for surely you did
not find your way from prinsiana, the least traveled site on
the internet. if you did, though, perhaps you are looking for humor. perhaps you are looking for profundity. perhaps you are looking for answers.
i'm sorry, but you shall go naught-for-three.
