Whack!


For no particular reason, here’s a picture of Adam playing virtual whack-a-mole.

Anthony victorious.


I’ll admit that I was not rooting for the Italians to win the World Cup. Watching De Rossi elbow Brian McBride in the face made it a bit hard for me to love the Italian team. I really wanted to see them lose, which never happened. Still, it’s hard to argue that Italy plays dirty and then somehow feel bad about their win after France’s star player goes wild and headbutts somebody like a crazed rhinocerous. I’d probably feel more conflicted or disappointed right now, but I had a great time watching the World Cup (this was the first year I really paid attention) and the smile on Anthony’s face makes it all feel worthwhile.

Hangin’ with Captain Morgan


I like pirates. I haven’t seen the new movie yet, but Adam and I did run into Captain Morgan outside the liquor store in Burbank. I’d like to see the Burbank police try to give the ol’ Captain a jaywalking ticket.

I’m also reading a great book about Captain Kidd called The Pirate Hunter. If you plan on doing any reading this summer, I recommend it. Arr!
