March Madness is like a gift from Mount Olympus man.  For the UK readers, its 
essentially a month long "world series" of college basketball teams, where 64 
of the "best" teams in the nation compete for the national title.  Its 
knock-down-drag-out-ugly-as-Linda-Tripp-bash-a-thon, with dozens of games 
played each night, and of course one loss and your season is over.  Just 
about everyone fills out their brackets the week after the pairings are 
announced, and this year everyone watched them self-destruct poste-haste.  
This year has been so crazy I can't stand it.  To make a bad picking of a 
bracket worse, Mrs. Llew's blasted Tarheels outlasted me and Todd H.'s (whos 
been absent recently) Maryland Terps and are now in the Final Four.  The 
Terps were young this year, but they still played brilliantly...brilliantly 
enough to beat a certain group of Tarheels by 13 points a few weeks ago!!!!...
ahem.  The Tarheels and Terps both play in ACC Conference too, so our teams 
go head to head several times a year, with the Terps recently getting the 
best of NC...ANYONE REMEMBER TWO 18 POINT LOSSES LAST YEAR?!...right...sorry. 
  If our star player, 6'9 junior forward Terrence Morris, returns next year 
we're easily of the Top 5 teams in the country...hold onto your ass Carolina.
Country song titles are hilarious!  Someone published a book of them awhile 
ago with quite a few winners, such as:

Drop Kick Me Jesus Through the Uprights of Life
The Only Good Years We Had Were the Tires On Your Car
My Dog Was Under Your Car The Night You Backed Out of My Life
Prop Me Up On the Jukebox If I Die
and my favorite...
Is There Life After Death?  Touch My Beer And Find Out

My Top 10 Reasons Why I Like Bobby Fischer has been on the band site for 
awhile but I kept forgetting to mention it.  Bobby Fischer is my man.  
Someone said something great about James Taylor awhile ago, and I give props 
to him.  Anyone who can cover Stephen Foster in free time and make it sound 
better than the original is pretty sweet.
I wonder what this message would look like translated into Ancient Greek.  Is 
there a Greek word for tar?  Terps?  James Taylor?
