Garnett to Boston Celtics for a lot of things

This was a shocker after coming home from my birthday shopping. Ray Allen, Paul Pierce, and now Kevin Garnett! The 2007 Celtics look like the 2004 Lakers. But considering the weak eastern conference, who can really contend other than Pistons and the Heats. Okay, the Cleveland Lebrons, with the powerful tandem of Old, Business, Kid, and Sport Lebron with Boobie Gibson, may have a chance, but Business might want to dunk more and looking good than pass which may result in chemistry issues with everybody else. But that’s beside the point.

Anyway, I think the Timberwolves still look good as a team after seeing what they got. They got a good power forward in Al Jefferson, a up-and-coming tweener center/forward in Ryan Gomes, a young and potentially great guard in Gerald Green, all talent but no focus player Sebastian Telfair, and a good veteran leader in Theo Ratliff with an expiring contract. But this takes them a step back, definitely.Overall, Celtics: win; Timberwolves: 50/50; and the Eastern Conference is still a 3-4 team show.

Nike, the slave shop supporters (just joking)

Nike is still the de facto shoe brand around the world. Okay, soccer is not one of their main brands right now. Tip your hats to Adidas for still keeping their hold on that market. But most people overlook the apparel line of Nike. No not the hoodies of college programs that they put out, but the more casual fashion line that they put out.Take for example the new Spring 07 Nike Tech Pack Collection.

I looked at one at the Palo Alto store and wondered if it was the right phone for me. The only thing that really puts me off of this phone is the keyboard. I have fat fingers and pecking did not do it for me. I don’t know, maybe I’ll buy generation 2 of this phone. Hopefully it will be a lot cheaper and have a lot more features.

Flight of the Conchords

HBO is sort of an enigma right now. Their hit show is off the air (umm…sopranos…if you didn’t know.) and really their only hit shows are Big Love and Entourage, but they always put out good show not hindered by censors.

I admit, I haven’t really seen this show a lot, but from what I have seen this musical about a struggling band committing to life in New York city. It goes through the awkward lives of Jermaine and Bret as they try to succeed as a band as well in love and life.
Like I said, this is a musical/sitcom and it is hilarious. The music is the star of the show and it is fun overall.

Watch it and have some fun. Grade:A-.

Weekly Crap

Technically, this like a monthly crap update, but here is the crap that I bought in the last week or so.


Here are some Temple Effectiveness shirts that I ordered from DigitalGravel

Here is a shirt from 10 deep that I ordered from the commonwealth site

Kaibutsu

Japanese for Monster. A word that I find interesting and that represents everything that has gone on in things that interest me.

Simpsons Trailer

Best prank calls of the Simpsons, from season 1 to 7. Just saw the Simpsons movie.

Yes, it was definitely worth it. There was hardly a point in the movie that the whole crowd did not laughed their assess off. Lots of surprises and lot of same old Simpsons humor that everybody loves. There is also a frontal nude scene that may lead to a porno career for one of the cast members.
