so, we've been watching a ton of olympics of late, partly because, y'know, it's interesting and fun and only happens every four years, and partly because the twins keep going into extra innings and keeping us awake anyway ( Read more... )

olympics!

There is a totally awesome movie about North Korea's mass games called "A State of Mind". It follows two girls who are practicing to be in the games, and looks at their families, and gives you an awesome picture into North Korea. Absolutely recommended.

It was designed specifically to bend small children and Randy Newman fans to my will.

No, I didn't make it, but I have no idea where I got it either. I believe it came straight from the seizure gods.

the article actually mentioned that movie, too, and now i'm very intrigued indeed about it.

You know, if they'd just win outright, like the Astros do, then you wouldn't have to worry about extra innings.

Yeah, but then we wouldn't have to worry about the playoffs, either. :)

On the plus side, you've done your part to make everyone happy and keep the Yankees out of the playoffs completely.

I gotta be honest, if the Rays make it I'd like to play the Twins in the first round. Not because I think it would be easier or anything, but because it would keep thousands of bandwagon power tools out of the Trop for at least one round.

We do what we can. Also, I'd love a Rays/Twins series, especially given the fact that Tampa's got half of our roster from last year and vice-versa.

And, yeah, that'd be an excellent way of chasing out a whole lot of bandwagon-leapers.
