I’m usually a fan of pro-basketball.  I kind of lost interest after Jordan retired and I never really caught the NBA bug after.  But being around Ness during the Eastern Conference finals and now the Finals, I’ve caught it again.  Seriously, she’s so into it, and it’s really hard to not get caught up in [...]

Esquire recently did a feature called The Esquire 100.  Basically these are the things that Esquire thinks you should know about.  The list, a pretty shitty one at that, is a collection of people, things, and ideas that pretty much mean nothing to most people.  I decided to do my own list, although I’m not [...]
