an ineffectual river in Egypt

2/9/05

I like cheese. I sure do like cheese. Cheese is almost always the best thing about any meal.

I probably like cheddar cheese the best. Monterey Jack is good too, and there's always Dill Havarti. I think Parmesan Cheese sometimes smells like barf.

They shouldn't be allowed to call American Cheese a cheese. It's more like a petroleum by-product. They should call it a cheese-like substance.

I like goat cheese too. And Camembert. And the occasional Stinky Bishop. I don't like Swiss cheese, but a slice of Gruyere on top of French Onion Soup sure is nice. Yep, I guess you could say I like cheese a whole lot.

FUCK.

It's only a "rivalry" if both teams occasionally win. What part of "taking it up the ass for eight years" constitutes a rivalry? I'm going to take a brick of Red Leicester and a half-wheel of Colby, and sit in the corner until I fucking feel better.

Red Leicester and Colby can do that? Behold the power of cheese. Me, I'm doublin' up on espresso today--what was your elegant phrase? Depressed but animated?--

FUCK DOOK.

PERIOD.

Ian,

In the darkness of Carolina losing(again) when they shouldn't have, I need you to continue to be the beacon of hope that you have been for so long.

Okay?

This is merely the beginning of this year's story.
When we beat Duke at the Smith Center on March 6th to win the ACC, this will all be water under the bridge.

HOLD ONTO THE FREAKIN' BALL! Yes, Dook played decent defense, esp. on that last shot, but so many turnovers were just the ball hitting our foot, slipping out of our hand, and bad passes. Settle down.

Raymond, the lane was OPEN in the last seconds.

Rashad, did he play?

I hate Ratface.

Last night, after staying up late (late for me) and watching them lose, I went directly to the fridge, grabbed a half gallon of ice cream, and finished it off while watching some inane Ashlee Simpson show on MTV. Talk about despair!

I need to double up on my Lexapro today.

All that cheese isn't going to make you feel any better, Mr. Lactose Intolerant, unless you have an enzyme pill as big as an orange. Or that the effect you want?

On the other hand, Duke has feelings too...

Only kidding, only kidding. You Tarheels do have a sense of humor, right? About things other than cheese, sex, and Conservatives?

Whew. I thought so. To think some of those kids in Durham bet me $10 you didn't.

Only kidding.

Not to be a bad sport or to harp on the loss, but didn't Dook knock the ball out of bounds with 3 seconds or so left on the clock?

It seemed like the clock kept running with the ball out of bounds, and then some of the fans came running onto the court so the refs decided to just let it end.

What a blow to the gut after a great comeback.

Raymond - why didn't you drive? You had an open lane.

Well played game overall, although the first half was so sloppy it was like watching a grade school team. Just so we all know, I am an admitted Duke fan (feel free to curse me under your breath, or out loud if you wish), and any game plan that may have existed in the buildup to a Duke/UNC matchup goes straight down the toilet at the tip off. Duke forced you guys to play 1/2 court offensive game, and UNC wins on breaks . . . Redick dropping a handful of 40 footers didn't hurt Duke's chances either. I stand by by statement from about a month ago: "The series will split, both teams winning at home." Sorry guys . . . if it makes anyone feel better, another White House propagandist was outed yesterday.

Scott - I thought the same thing, but I rewound it (God bless TiVo) and verified that it was well under a second left when the ball landed out of bounds.

Ray had 4 options in that set play, Dook shut them all down (JJ Asshole said in the postgame that they expected that play because it's the same play Carolina used in the last play of a couple of close games last year.) Ray should have improvised, but given how poorly we played, I'm almost happier that we didn't pull it out. This team's opinion of itself needed to be brought down a notch if we're going to go deep in the tourneys. I had hoped we'd come close to losing at Florida State so that we'd get that wake up call before Dook, but it needed to be done.

Fuck Dook.

i'm with you Ian.

FUCK.

not a good day to be tapering off effexor.

Did you just say cheese?
Don't even get me started.

I fucking love cheese so much it has become a problem at parties. I was born in Wisconsin so it's really no suprise.

Harvarti is my favorite, but you should try the cheese my brother sells- Black Diamond Sharp Age Cheddar. It's the bomb-diggity...

Shit.

Looks like I picked the wrong day to give up hydrocodone lattes.

Outnumbered 30-3 at a sports bar full of my law school classmates. I've been talking shit all week. Still, little Zaid put on his Heels uni today courtesy of the wife and I somehow feel better.

As I said to one of the primo shit-talkers here, I'm a Democrat, and sometimes I'd rather be with the "losers" than among the winners. DB

in the words of a great poet, "shit..."

Hey - do you have any idea how much Stilton one has to eat when one is an NC State fan? At least you guys win occasionally!

I was going to tell Unca Ian that a whole heaping helping of perspective was on its way, in more ways than one.

But even mild dook*ie gloating kinda makes me both tired and angry.

I guess this is the wrong place to come if you're looking for perspective.
