Memorial Day 2010

Well I have a full, long day of work ahead of me tomorrow, and with a floater pharmacist to top it off. This dude, "Tom," had better be good. "Take the Coltrane" is playing in the background and I am cleaning and organizing while I parcel my way through Woody Allen's "Play it Again, Sam."

Dennis Hopper, Gary Coleman, Celtics, Lakers/Suns?

Will it be "Los Suns" or the Lakers? Part of me really wants the Lakers (my least liked NBA team) so that the Celtics could beat them and make them look terrible, but another part of me wants the Suns so that, no matter what, the Lakers can't win. I would really like to see 2-time MVP Steve Nash win a championship as well. The guy is humble, socially engaged, and incredible to watch.

Who knows what treasures in game 6 of the Western Conference Finals are held in store for us tonight, but the Celtics look amazing. Rondo isn't the best point guard in the game, but he is damn good, and a playmaker, and very fun to watch.

Gary Coleman passed away yesterday and Dennis Hopper today. My brother used to love Diff'rent Strokes while we were growing up, but I don't remember anything about it. I did love Blue Velvet though, and Wenders' The American Friend (based on the Ripley novels by Patricia Highsmith). I still have yet to see Easy Rider which he co-wrote and directed and is considered by many to be his best. RIP guys.

NBAAAAA

The Celtics busted out to a 3-0 lead on the favored Orlando Magic and seem to be ready to seal it here in game 6. When they are clicking, they are really clicking and tonight is no different.

I am trying to get moved into my place but I gotta work hard and I need to start NOW haha.

Cinco de Mayo

As we all know, that Suns beat my Blazers in the first round of the playoffs just about a week ago, and I was really fed up with them. Knowing that they oppose the ridiculous immigration law passed in Arizona, however, gives me newfound respect for them ---
