She never begins an attack, nor, when once engaged, ever surrenders: She is therefore an emblem of magnanimity and true courage. ... she never wounds 'till she has generously given notice, even to her enemy, and cautioned him against the danger of treading on her.

Welcome to the Jungle

I didn't follow hardly any of the NBA Finals this year. As far as I'm concerned, basketball's pretty much over when the Spurs are done.

However, word hath reached mine ear that the timeless match-up betwixt Boston and Los Angeles resulted in a victory for the latter, though you wouldn't be able to tell from the Rodney King-esque scene in L.A. that followed.

Just as I was into thinking mode (i.e., how can I blog about this and look original? said to self), Miss Phlegmmy steps it up a notch:

If your society is so pathetic and wrong-headed that you break into violence when something good happens, I sure as hell plan to be a long way from you just in case something you don't like happens.

Well, that pretty much sums it up, doesn't it?

It's been said before, but I reiterate: I've a suggestion to keep you all occupied - Learn To Swim.

  1. I could say something mean about those down-south cousins in LA but we have SF and Oakland and Berkeley nearby.
    I learned to swim when I was seven and it saved my life a couple times.

Feel free to drop a line. You don't have to keep it clean - God knows, I won't - but keep it above the belt.
