Snap, Crakely, and Pop

--I find the whole Cleveland/Washington rivalry cute. You know LeBron thinks he is so cool, probably going as far as Tivoing the coverage of this series (in addition to his regular Tivioing of himself). Maybe he should realize (as should ESPN...get off LeBron's cock, guys) that having a heated and contentious rivalry with the Washington Wizards lowers his stature. Oh well, at least his delusional outlook makes a 4/5 Eastern series watchable.

--Working at my parents' pizza restaurant the other night, I took an order for someone with the last name 'Yackle.' How would you pronounce this? I'm guessing 'Yak-ull,' am I right? The Lady on the phone proceeds to give me her name as "Y-A-C-K-L-E, Yakely." How ridiculous is this? I wanted to tell her that she pronounces her name wrong. I mean, it's not 'Snap, Crakely, and Pop.

--Come Wednesday, Indiana is going to become the hub of political activity in this country over the following two weeks. In fact, the onslaught of ads is becoming more and more pronounced. Just now, I saw a Hillary Clinton ad and a Barack Obama ad back-to-back. As you know, I gave my endorsement (oh, and for the record, I say this tongue-in-cheek because endorsements come from powerful people) to Hillary Clinton. Expect more on this topic in the coming weeks, especially if I join Hoosiers for Hillary in order to do my part to get the right person the Democratic nomination.

--Speaking of politics, one final note: I created a Facebook group called "Barack Obama: Getting By on the Ignorance and Stupidity of the Young". The reasons for the group should be obvious (and they are listed in the details), but let's just say it is a testament to the fact that it should take more than just handing out concert tickets to become an attractive candidate for the office of president. One quick note, though. This group is founded on the belief that Hillary Clinton is the better candidate to become POTUS. It has nothing to do with gender or race, ergo racists need NOT join!
