Today, that joy is in the knowledge that my putrid but beloved Browns (along with the blessing of an unbelievably cold night) completely wrecked the chances of the Steelers to compete for a playoff spot. In celebration, my father took this picture. Enjoy.<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_RFqEcw5An2w/SyJs_kUzbBI/AAAAAAAADWs/RyGrR82idGw/s1600-h/steelers-dis.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 240px; height: 320px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_RFqEcw5An2w/SyJs_kUzbBI/AAAAAAAADWs/RyGrR82idGw/s320/steelers-dis.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5414009541391248402" /></a><br /><br />Cheers - cause I'm so British,<br />joel<br /><br />ps - now my hope is that this fluke win does not net Mangidiot a chance to keep his job.

Apparently nearly 10M other people already knew that, but let me be the 10Mth to the party to share with you if you haven't seen already.<br /><br /><object width="480" height="295"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/tgbNymZ7vqY&hl=en_US&fs=1&"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/tgbNymZ7vqY&hl=en_US&fs=1&" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="480" height="295"></embed></object><br /><br />Cheers - cause I'm so British,<br />tangoTango the gifted Llamahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16104566756204903480noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3652951175905544192.post-86408681735635518762009-11-19T23:30:00.001-05:002009-11-19T23:31:26.466-05:00Today's interesting Internet videoProps to Dale Brantner for the link.

I normally hate days like this - rainy and gloomy - and I wouldn't normally be so transfixed by an album like this one, but today they just fit together in a way that was just a little bit special in an otherwise very usual day. That's one of the great things about carrying your music library in a wallet-sized device - you get to remember that you have music you forgot you love.<br /><br />Many props to Bryce Flurie who turned me on to Waits and to Dale Brantner who let me burn the album 5+ years ago.<br /><blockquote>So if you find someone<br />Someone to have, someone to hold<br />Don't trade it for silver<br />Don't trade it for gold<br />I have all of life's treasures<br />And they are fine and they are good<br />They remind me that houses<br />Are just made of wood<br />What makes a house grand<br />Ain't the roof or the doors<br />If there's love in a house<br />It's a palace for sure<br />Without love...<br />It ain't nothin but a house<br />A house where nobody lives<br /></blockquote><br />- from "The House Where Nobody Lives", <span style="font-style: italic;">Mule Variations</span>, Tom Waits<br /><br />Cheers - cause I'm so British,<br />tangoTango the gifted Llamahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16104566756204903480noreply@blogger.com0
