Dammit, Ted, get on it!
Oh, and you'll get a major kick out of the latest post:
jasonbrzoska.com;
Hmmmmm..........I just read your latest entries on your blog. It seems in Portland you got into a Russell Crowish, little snit and threw your Blackberry across the store. True you didn't throw it at the clerk but then I don't recall you winning an Oscar either.......fortunately, you were spared a court appearance and a lawsuit.
In any case, much like Crowe, your behavior was fairly juvenile. Now I might be less critical if this happened before 2PM in the afternoon, then the dude could have called the east coast and tried to straighten things out for you. On the other hand, you've known you've had this problem for some time and chose not to do any thing about it until you were 3K miles away from home. I hope this episode is not an example of your best behavior. For future reference, when the clerk isn't making it happen for you, try asking to speak to the manager.
I was really excited to see the pics of downtown Boise because I had never gotten to downtown on my business trip to Boise a few years back, but alas, you took them at nite for some inexplicable reason. So all I got to see in the first one was an outline of trees in the dark and a stoplight. The second one was a pic of some bushes. To say that I was disappointed is a bit of an understatement.
And frankly, I take issue with your fetish for state capitol buildings. I mean, when you've seen one state capitol building, you pretty much have seen them all. Granted the OR capitol building is a bit different but then its a fairly ugly piece of architecture.
Are you beginning to see why many blogs don't allow comments from the peanut gallery? BTW one of my friends from MT chimed in and said they liked your comments and wanted you to know that they stop regularly at the casino identified in one of your posts on their way back to Seattle.
As for your request, I am mystified why you would go to the riff raff of the thread with this concern..........is it because you two share a love of frito pies and Dr. Pepper? Did you think I would do something because you and Harris concluded that that would be appropriate behavior for me?
This is a fairly democratic thread so why don't you poll the thread to see if it wants your blog in its intro? If there is some consensus, then one of us can ask SI to make the alterations.
While I think its very multi cultural and diverse of you to mention that "you are falling in love" with a NY Met, don't you think some things should be left private? As for the Cameron/Beltrane pileup, it was brutal.......and I hope Cameron, a former Mariner and a great guy, comes out of it okay.
And finally, you might have pointed out to Harris that you ordered two thirds more food than you were able to eat in our dinner session.
Now to recap: rude, redneck behavior in OR; poorly lit photos; repetitive pics of seats of power; a love of frito pies and pedestrian junk food...........I am afraid you are taking on the characteristics of a red stater. FWIW.
