Economic Sociology, U of F, 24, Cialis

Did I catch a Max Weber reference? He's a bowler? I thought he was an economic sociologist.

So, I watched somewhere between 7 and 10 minutes of the football game last night. I got home from work real late, ate dinner, watched CSI:Miami, and did some work that I didn't finish at the office before I even thought to turn on the game. I said something along the lines of, "I always thought UF was kind of a Streisand, but they are really rockin the shit in this one." Ok, just kidding. Love 40 Year Old Virgin, one of my new favorites. By the way, what's the Type Slow's stance on cursing in blog posts?

Saw Kiefer Sutherland on Conan last night. He seems like a genuinely nice guy. He talked about how he loves living in East LA (yes, he shares a home with Cheech), going on to discuss the locals "cooking food on the sidewalks" and how he got mugged a few weeks back. How does someone attempt to mug Jack Bauer... and mug him succesfully?!? Kiefer must be a complete puss in real life. But, hey, at least he's a genuinely nice guy.

Random thought: have you seen the newest Cialis commercials? Cari had been telling me for a week how much she has hated all these E.D. ads, but especially despised the new Cialis spot. When I finally saw it, I totally agree. The ad is highlighing the longer time period of effectiveness - now up to 36 hours. So, it opens up with this older couple, each about mid- to late-60s, giving each other the eye as they caress and begin to head upstairs. Just as they are about to seal the deal, a few small kids (presumably their grandchildren) barge through the front door. No worries... we have 36 hours to kill with the grandkids before we have disgusting, old-people sex! Christ.

Back to the sports world, who is going to win the NBA's Atlantic division? The Nets are clearly the most talented, the Raptors have a nice little squad, and everyone else is hanging around. But you know what team I like here - the New York Kniggas. Thats right, a revitalized Stephon Marbury, a giant oaf at Center who drops 17 and 7 a night, D. Lee (David, not Derek) with double-doubles left and right, and a quality cast off the bench. They play no D, and have some very poor shooting nights (Q is back from injury, by the way. They're completely healthy), but that just could be enough to go .500 and win the division. Thoughts? You takin your Celts?
