Shouldn't there be a bar named Drunk? I think it would be a clever satirical play on all the "trendy" single name clubs. Also I hadn't planned it this way but having seen it in print it could be Drunk? instead of just of Drunk. Also, it could be Drunk. - with a period after it. Punctuation in bar names kicks ass. The stream-of-
conciousness (I don't think I've ever spelt the word
conciousness correctly) is due to A Heartbreaking Work of Staggering Genius that I'm reading (having recently fallen upon the book What is the What, enjoying it and wanting to read more
Eggers) and in part to a lack of time for a proper post. Other shit that I've been thinking of writing lately includes: being more interested in
Best of Craigslist posts from the city in which I, or you, live - which I would think is true for most people. Note: I just asked three people in my apartment if they engage in this behavior and none of them had ever read best of
craigslist, which is insane to me, take a look. Also, the
hypocrisy of the NFL challenge system, by which they reward correct calls and punish for requesting them. Finally, I want to write about shit that looks and feels cool but kind of sucks - or might kind of suck but maybe doesn't (think PT Anderson films), people always come down on one side of that fence or the other. I'm a fence sitter and I think a lot of others are as well - whether or not they're willing to admit it.

Interesting
article on critiques of The Wire. I'm excited about the connection of Lester and
McNulty, I think that there are interesting moral implications for this combination.
I'll be blogging at the Rolex 24 Hours of
Daytona this weekend on
this blog. It's for the foundation I work for and it's a very worthy cause (I won't mention it here because it'd show up on
google alerts and people I work with would read this).
