Random thoughts after a long absence

Has anyone else noticed the disclaimer at the bottom of the screen in the VW Passat commercial? It says "Do not throw megaphones or metaphors out your window." If you have to have warnings for stupid people, the least you can do is include a joke. Props to them.

The Mavs are in the NBA Finals for the first time in their history. Although I would much rather see the Stars in the Stanley Cup Finals, I'll take the Mavs over nothing. If Mark Cuban makes it out of the series alive I'll be surprised. He is going to have a stroke or fall victim to a heart attack or be beat to death by the Miami fans.

Speaking of the Miami Heat, I really hate the whole "white out" thing at their games. All white is creepy. As John noted, it's more like a cult than anything. Very, very disturbing.

With that, I'm out.
