I read it again with this in mind. Lame. Very lame. Unfunny and lame.

I'm glad I read the letter. I already knew I didn't like Steely Dan, but now I can allow myself to feel a little self-righteous about it.

Ok, in that sense, it is pretty great. They definitely show some true colors (mostly brown). I couldn't tell, by the weird writing style, if they were trying to mock Luke as if he's really dumb and talks like that or if they are actually just that burned out and think they're cool.

I disagree. I think it's a crappy letter. First of all, Owen had no hand in the writing, directing or producting of the Dupree movie. It sounds like Steely Dan has a legitimate gripe, but take it up with the producers. What's the point of publicly insulting both of the Wilson brothers? They just come off like bitter washed up pricks. Besides, I think both Owen and Luke have been good in several good movies. And they have some nerve calling the Wilsons out for fluff roles, considering Steely Dan has been on the same greatest hits tour for three decades.

Just a bit of advice: turn your volume down or off. That tool's singing is honestly quite horrifying.

Utica. Mmmmmwaahhh! (makes Italian-chef kiss-your-fingers-gesture, sarcastically indicating great magnificence)

She IS iconic--I'll give her that. Not so much like Marilyn Monroe though. More like Monroe from Too Close For Comfort.

Did you get to work and realize you forgot your pants again?

Rochelle Rochelle. Nice.

Whatever happened to the flesh-eating virus? Does anybody get that anymore? As a fan of zombie movies, I'd like to say that was my favorite.

My word. I am willing to make sacrifices, but there's no way you're gonna find me sitting here in Atlanta in July without A/C.

Absolutely not.

No, because I was curious.

Can you cite a reliable scientific source that says global warming is not a serious problem?

By the way, the movie An Inconvenient Truth is excellent. I saw it this weekend. Very entertaining and makes strong points based on solid science, not emotional appeals. Chances are, you will discover that the Global Warming problem is worse than most Americans have been lead to believe.

None of the above. Your reply should have been something like this

Other than the fact that they both have heads shaped exactly like a lug nut, I see no resemblance whatsoever.

Have a great birthday, Poojer. You nutty nutty bastard.

We already knew justice is blind. Now we know how it got that way.

Soccer video game question: Does anyone know when Winning Eleven 10 will be released in the U.S.? It was released in Japan in April, but I haven't heard anything since then. I actually went out and bought the recent FIFA, World Cup edition, but if you're familiar with the Winning Eleven series, then the FIFA games are crap. It's nice that they have all the licenses, but the game play is garbage compared to Winning Eleven, which is simply the best sports video game series that has ever existed.

Really? I missed that part. What a bunch of losers. I'm glad France gave them something to really feel sour about.

Yesterday's Spain vs. France was awesome! One of the best games so far. Both teams actually trying to win with skill, not dives and BS. Also, the referee did a great job of communicating with the players instead of just reaching for the yellow card every time. I was rooting for France and was pleasantly surprised they were able to pull it out. Before now, it did not seem that France was capable of beating a team like Spain, who I thought really had a shot at winning it all. If they play like this on Saturday against Brazil, it will be an amazing game. The other Saturday game, ENG vs. POR, will be great too. I think this one will be a fight. England will need to step it up to beat Portugal, who has been winning by sheer strength of will it seems. I would love to see Rooney's efforts finally pay off with a goal or two.

Happy Birthday!
