Sports / Keane / Jamie

Tuesday, Jun. 20, 2006 - 1:41 a.m.

Winged Foot is the most satanically possessed golf course I have ever seen in the history of the US Open.

And -- Holy Mackerel, when did Phil Mickelson get breasties?

He probably couldn't swing because he didn't have his SPORTS BRA on! Geez!

Congratulations to the Carolina Hurricanes's Stanley Cup win.

Twenty someodd years ago, the New York Islanders used to win Stanley Cups, but their basic technique was to beat the sauce out of their opponents until they just couldn't skate anymore.

When the Edmonton Oilers finally won, with Gretzky at the helm, it was nice to just see a decent team win. Not just the playing, but genuinely decent and sane and non-brawling people.

So, I rooted for Edmonton this year out of sentimentality.

Keane was on the Tonight Show Monday night; they sang "Is It Any Wonder" off of their new CD Under The Iron Sea, and they were spectacular as usual.

However, for a few moments, I thought something might have been wrong with Tom's voice. It didn't have that RING to it like it used to. He sounds like he is slurring his words. I sat up and watched it with Old Buddy Dave, and Dave said "Sounded fine to me."

Then I remembered and figured it out. Duh, it's MY hearing that's shot! Arrghghg!

If all goes well, I am going to have a sheaf of original Keane pictures to share with you all on Wednesday. Cross your fingers!

Today, Tuesday, Keane will be doing a very small noon set of music down in LA at the Virgin Megastore, to coordinate with the World Cup Halftime (two songs at around 1245 pm.)

So, if you're in the area, go see them in person for free!

Chatted with Jamie for a bit last night. You know how these late nighters go.

Jamie's landlady keeps asking him if it's okay for her to show his current apartment now that he's given his thirty-day and been accepted into a new place. He keeps refusing to allow her in when he's not there.

But he and I are both suspecting that, since nobody actually shows up to see the place when he's home, that she is just going on in anyway, despite the fact that Jamie has refused permission for her to enter his place while he's at work.

In the middle of thinking we were funny, there was a brief discussion of possible bizarre 'set dressing' that he could leave behind each morning as he goes to work. Suggestions included leaving a used looking sex-toy out on the coffee table, and procuring some day old chocolate cake doughnuts to crumble up and leave in the toilet and smeared on the bathroom mirror.

All right. Enough of this. Have a nice Tuesday.
