BWL, you have my sympathy. I couldn't imagine being even halfway related to anyone who takes that shit seriously. I thought that mycommon-law son-in-law was an asshole, but he's not that insufferable.

I'm in Hornets withdrawal this morning. I suppose it was inevitable that the Spurs win one at home, just as Dallas did in the first round, so I'm not too worried ~ yet.

The plus side is that I put a little more time into my guitar-picking after watching that tough loss than I had been doing of late. Turned the tube off right at the final buzzer instead of obsessively watching every possible post-game show, then SportsCenter and maybe even the wee-wee-hours rebroadcast of the game.
