Good News, Bad News
November 12, 2006 — pooksThe Cowboys won!
The Longhorns lost.
I got the green bowls I’ve been wanting on Ebay!
Somebody outbid me on the oak library drawers — three different times.
I activated Patrick Crayton and Marion Barber in time to chalk up some points for me in Fantasy Football!
I lost anyway.
I found my iPod!
Okay, I can stop there. How can a day be anything but good when I found my iPod AND the Cowboys won?
Yep, I’ve got strep. But the ‘Boys won.
Now I’m going to go on to bed and let George Guidall read me to sleep with American Gods
(But, three times? I mean, I only needed one, couldn’t they have let me win one auction? Sigh.)
Sweet dreams.

Sorry you didn’t get the oak file drawer! Maybe one will turn up around here; I can think of a couple of places to start looking.

You’re gonna have to get sniping sw if you really wanna win on ebay. You can buy sw or subscribe to web based services that either charge by the month, or charge on the winning bid.

Knowing how much things are worth to being with kinda helps, too.

I don’t think an OU fan has room to talk.

Fascinating, I’ve never seen or heard Lenny Henry do a non-comedic role in my life. How does Anansi compare to the American trickster, Coyote?

Anansi is a spider god, and from what little I know, is similar to the trickster Coyote. He’s a really GREAT reader for this story, and does the various voices in a way that’s impressive. They aren’t fake and ’storyteller’ish, but feel like really different voices. The American character sounds American, for example. Lenny Henry rocks.

“The American character sounds American, for example. Lenny Henry rocks.”
Absolutely. He showed half of his range in “True Identity” and if they had an actual script, he might have made it here, but then we wouldn’t have “Chef!”

It’s an OU Alumnae, and we didn’t lose to Kansas State…

No, darlin. You lost to Texas.
