Go Turkey, the African All-Stars, and Baby Mammas

If a fist bump is a terrorist jab, as Fox News called it, then the largest terrorist organization in the world is the NBA.

I came up with that joke over the weekend and felt the need to use it. Also over the weekend, my underdog pick for Euro 2008, Turkey, ensured that they would make it through to the knockout stage. And in a combination of the two previous things, a joke and Euro 2008, a friend of mine here in South Africa insists on calling the French national team “The African All-Stars” because half their team hails from Africa (which makes us think that soccer dominance was the real reason for French colonialism).

Back to the website. Over at The Stormy Present Society you can still chime in with your thoughts about Brad’s post The Office Space of High Fidelity. You can also read the latest post in which I share the experience of my worst job and others have shared their experiences in the comment section. So give that a read and add your worst job experience.

Over at the politics page you can read about why Jeff is going to ‘go silent’ in regards to Senator Obama. He’s hoping it will be a sort of reverse jinx, which is funny because he does the same thing with football (spend 3 days talking about how awesome your team is and follow it with 3 days talking about how your team sucks and is going to lose by 100). To pick up Jeff’s slack, I’ve posted something I wrote for work a while back about Senator Obama. It’s written for a South African audience and references the situation here in South Africa, but might be an interesting read anyway.

So enjoy the new stuff, keep commenting on the old stuff, and treat your baby momma with the respect she deserves.
