    Why do boys hate reading?

    I didn't even get into reading until I was 15, a sophomore in high school. Now? I read every day. Every Thursday I get my weekly copy of Sports Illustrated. I sift through it on that night, Friday, and both days of the weekend. Then there's the various books that I read whenever I want to...

    Movies you watched more than once?

    I'm one of those weirdos that likes to watch movies over and over until I can almost recite the whole freakin' movie. "OK, then, what is true love?" "True love is the soul's recognition of its counterpoint in another" - Owen Wilson "We lost so many men out there." "Playing for the...

    What Do You Want to Read Next?

    I want to read Choke by Chuck Palahniuk, but I can't find it anywhere, so I guess I'm gonna look for it used on the net somewhere.

    Movies you watched more than once?

    Several. All the DVDs I own (which are many, too many to count) are ones I've watched more than once. The movie Wedding Crashers, to name one, is one I've watched over 50 times.

    Congratulations to all the Celitic Fans!

    Born and raised in Virginia, I've never been to a Celtics game in my life (albeit I have a signed Larry Bird jersey). However, due to my father's affinity for the Celtics, and his tales of watching the Celtics in the late 50s and 60s (led by Bill Russell, Bob Cousy, and John Havlicek), I was...

    Judge officially rules that Duke football sucks

    Ah, Duke Football. Always in contention. . . for the worst in the NCAA. Well, they got a new coach (David Cutcliffe), so, um ah', I'll be praying for them to turn around the ship sometime over the next five years.

    Which writer would you choose as a pal?

    Tucker Max. Man, that'd be crazy. He's one of the craziest guys out there, anyway. You'd know that by reading the back of the book "I Hope They Serve Beer in Hell" alone (and his upcoming book "Assholes Finish First" will/should be just as good). Other than him, probably Bill Simmons. I'd...

    Comedian George Carlin passes away

    I loved his comparison of football and baseball. That was hilarious. I always thought that he was a great orating genius. I think he used comedy to get his point across instead of actually trying to be a comedian. It's debatable; but that's my stance on things. To me, he's still a comedic...

    Spare time activities

    I run about two or three miles through the week. I play several games of pick up basketball on at least two days during the week (usually on Thursdays and Saturdays). Other than that, I'm avidly traveling and/or watching sports.

    Pet Peeves

    Thanks. Whenever it happens, I always say "your welcome!" pretty loudly so they hear me as they walk by. I usually get a few evil stares, but hey, I'm not the rude one. :)

    Does spelling still count?

    I always try to use the best grammar when I write. When I see other people who appear to be intelligent, or that I know for a fact that they're intelligent, carelessly misspell words, I become irritated because I know they're slacking. Same as when people type in complete lowercase letters...

    Pet Peeves

    -- When girls talk about other guys to me, especially when I'm attracted to said girl. -- People who think writing is easy -- People who say they can do something but in reality they can't -- Bigots -- Rednecks -- My ignorant neighbors who are annoying as heck knows what -- People who walk...
