Ever seen Around the Horn on ESPN? It’s a show where a host arbitrarily gives points to columnists chiming in on all things sport. This goes down as idea #437 that was stolen from me. So I am reclaiming it from here on forward. Each weekend I’ll announce who or what is awarded or deducted points based on my observations of the past week.
+3: Yellowcard for releasing a second major label album that exceeds the quality of their first.
-4: iTunes for putting the album booklet for Yellowcard in QuickTime format that’s hard to read and maneuver. Stick with the PDF format.
+2: The Office for their pre credit teaser on Thursday night’s episode with Ryan getting unwelcome glances while filling in for Pam.
+1: Verizon for restoring my faith in telecommunications companies
-1: Tempest Bledsoe for portraying the spoiled ex child star so stereotypically on Celebrity Fit Club
-5: Barry Bonds for pulling out of the World Baseball Classic not just because I wanted to watch him play but bonus points for opening himself up to another round of media criticism. Hire a PR person already!
And in the one time only category:
+1: George W. Bush for making me laugh harder then I have in months when he became glued to a swinging camera apparatus during his Palestinian election statements. This clip didn’t even need Jon Stewart commentary it spoke for itself. With 1 point in the positive W’s lifetime total is now -49,873.

I am hear, I am learning more about my God son than in all the years since he was baptized in La Jolla Coves! Love the movie reviews as I value your opinion greatly. Yes, how will they do the song from Hustle and Flow. Absolutely awesome pivot point in that very good movie.
Hang loose, enjoy life and talk later.

Oops, should have previewed. How could I spell "here" as "hear" unless it has double meaning!
