2008-05-14 21:19:00
If you're going to go to a sporting event, go to one that counts. One that makes headlines not just in your town or your state or your country, but the whole world. One with a sense of history and class and drama.Go to Wimbledon .Wimbledon is the only sporting event that can be referred to by a single word. And what images that word conjures up: emerald green grass. Clean-cut whites. British royalty mingling with American celebrities. The smell of summer. The thwack of the ball against the racket. The towering cheers when the amazing happens - -and the amazing always happens at Wimbledon.Yes, Wimbledon conjures up all of that. But it also conjures up more than just the hazy images of beautiful summer tennis matches.Say Wimbledon and you think, too, of Tatiana Golovin's red knickers. Of Serena Williams screaming in pain but sticking it out to make it to the quarterfinals. Of Roger Federer winning four straight titles there. Or Bjorn Borg winning five.Say Wimbledon, and you think the...

Because I combined the names, I can't get sued for using them. Right?

Here's an interesting question I was asked to ponder: If I could have one supernatural power, what would it be, and why?Naturally-- or should that be supernaturally-- I would rather ponder that question than, say, work. So I will.Most people will, when asked that question, stick with your conventional superpowers -- flight, invisibility, super strength, a tiny green ring that you can use to create virtually anything so long as you're not near something yellow. Those people are sticks in the mud.You need to search farther afield to think of a truly great supernatural power. There are far, far better supernatural powers to have. "The Spectre" had some awesome supernatural powers, for example, and nobody ever mentions him. The Legion of Superheroes had whole groups of people with supernatural powers, like the power to read minds, or the power to transmutate elements, or... okay, the power to blow oneself up as a ball and bounce around is not really that cool. But it's farther...

The Best Song In A Language Other Than English
2008-05-13 22:57:00
A lot of people who read this are going to look at that headline and say "Don't you mean The Best Song In A Foreign Language ?" But I don't. Because TBOE is an international website, so people from other countries read it, too. Even if those countries don't have the good sense to speak English , they are kind of real countries with kind of real feelings and their own cultures that I should respect, but to respect them I'd have to know about them and to know about them I'd have to do something other than watch my new Newhart Season One DVDs which Sweetie gave me as an anniversary present.So I'm not likely anytime soon to understand other cultures, but I do know that they speak languages that are not English, and I do know that they think those languages are not "foreign languages." In fact, I understand -- if you can believe this -- they think English is a foreign language. I'm sure they'll see the light of day once we either start shipping them iPods or invade them or both.

If you've got pet birds, you know what a joy they are to have around. It doesn't matter if they're a couple of little zebra finches, or a parrot that you teach to talk like Johnny Depp, or a pair of lovebirds -- you love your birds, and they love you.I know what I'm talking about. I always know what I'm talking about, but in this case, I'm a little know-ier, because among the many pets I've had in my lifetime were my parakeet, Charlie. I loved Charlie. He rocked.Your birds rock, too -- you know they do. So treat them to a great cage fromYCA Cages. YCA Cages has just about every cage you could ever want, so you can get your own little Charlie a home that he deserves. They'll even let you shop by bird species, so you can make sure you get the right kind of cage. You don't want your cockatiel trying to live in a house meant for society finches, do you? Let's not embarrass the birds that way.YCA Cages has also got a "bird blog," where they'll share their ideas, and yours, ...

My Best Summer Vacation Will Happen In The Near Future
2008-05-13 16:38:00
I love to take vacations and I don't get enough opportunity to. But one is in the works, in the next few years: I'm going to take Sweetie to Paris for a romantic trip.I first proposed this to Sweetie about a year ago. She had watched some travel shows about Paris and thought that it looked pretty and interesting.Now, I had always thought that I'd rather go someplace exotic and exciting, like Africa or the Amazon. But I moved Paris up the list quickly when she said that, because Sweetie is not fond of traveling, so for her to say she'd like to go somewhere is a pretty big deal. But more importantly, Sweetie's my wife and I want her to be happy. If she'd be happier walking around the City of Lights than tracking down a 30' anaconda, then I'm all for that.Those are two good reasons to go to Paris. I just found a third one, though: Dialaflight. Dialaflight is a UK travel company that lets you search for flights to Europe, cars, travel ideas, and more. You look through their site...

Blaine Fridley, who loves the collected works of Depeche Mode written for the recorder, and who also co-writes "Diary of Fools" has done double duty today.First, he has linked to The Best of Everything, and accordingly, gets a link back and a review. I checked out "Diary of Fools" and was laughing -- a lot, which posed a problem because I was reading it on my laptop while sitting near the back at a seminar. Since there's nothing inherently funny about depositions, I think people were on to me.There is a lot that's inherently funny about "Diary of Fools." My favorite? "Man, living with genital herpes looks... AWESOME!" Blaine takes a apart a commercial far better than I ever could. Blaine also weighed in on The Best Cereal Spokesman, noting that the worst one was "King Vitaman." Funny and a categorical memory of cereal spokespeople -- Blaine, when TBOE starts hiring, you'll be first in line. Now the rest of you -- go read "Diary of Fools."

Taking A Bite Out of Identity Theft
2008-05-13 01:35:00
Okay, I'm a sucker for an easy joke. But when I read that Lifelock is teaming up with dentists in Tennessee to protect identities from theft, that was my first reaction.My second reaction was I need to become a dentist, because they are getting the benefits of Lifelock. You know Lifelock -- it's that company whose CEO gives out his social security number on national TV; he's bold. I'm so worried about identity theft that I not only don't write down important numbers, I don't even remember them.That's where Lifelock can help, as the dentists know. The Tennessee Dental Association is the latest group to sign its members up for protection by one of the industry's leaders. Lifelock protects people that well, by placing fraud alerts on credit files, removing members' names from junk mail lists, and more.They don't just promise -- they guarantee, to the tune of a cool $1 million buckaroos if they screw up. Anyone who puts a million bucks behind their promise has to be pretty sur...

The Best Cereal Spokesman
2008-05-12 18:57:00
As I was pouring my Froot Loops -- a cereal that not only has the sense to deliberately misspell a word in its name for trademark purposes but which also has a rockin' guitar solo on its home page -- this morning, I had reason to ponder two things:First, why don't cereal manufacturers deliberately market that powder that gets left at the end of the box, because that is awesome. You know what I'm talking about: the cereal powder that's the result of shipping and handling, chipped and crushed off, so that if you get the last of a bowl of cereal, you get that powder on top of the cereal, adding more concentrated flavor to your morning breakfast. It's like sprinkling ground-up Cap'n Crunch on your bowl of Cap'n Crunch; it's like that because that's exactly what you're doing. If they sold that separately, I would buy it and then I could really mix cereals -- I could have a bowl of Peanut Butter Cap'n Crunch with Froot Loops powder sprinkled on it. Or, think about this, Big Cer...

Don't be a sucker anymore!

If you're like me, you probably never thought much about the cell phone you use. I've always just taken the phone the cell phone company would give me for free. But that's pretty limiting, when you stop to consider it, because I should be picking out a phone that suits all my needs.My current phone does -- but only sort of. I've got a keyboard and a camera and video options, which are great. I use the camera a lot, like when I took a picture of an exhibit in a trial, recently, and then emailed it to my office. The keyboard is great because I hated sending text messages and emails by hitting the keys 3 or 4 times to get the letter I want.But my phone doesn't do everything I it to do, like surf the internet. It's just a phone.The problem is, I always assumed that I had to wait until my phone broke, then I go to my cellphone company and get a new one, without looking around. I don't shop that way for anything else, but I do for my cell phone, like a sucker.Bestincellphones.com c...

The Babies! are rapidly outgrowing everything we have -- including the Baby Arena (which some people would call a Play yard.) That left me with a dilemma. A couple of dilemmas, actually.First, how do I keep the Babies! from getting to the TV which is the only valuable object we have in our house, and which ranks just behind the people and just ahead of the cats in my esteem?Second, what do I do with all this baby stuff, like the play yard? Our closets are overflowing. I don't want to just throw it out; that seems like a waste plus I spent a lot of money on this stuff and would like to get some of that back. We don't know anybody having Babies! anytime soon.We tried having a rummage sale last year. It took four days to set up, then rained the day of the sale and wrecked half the junk, plus we had to spend hours putting up signs and people started arriving at our house-- my private sanctuary -- at 6 a.m., before I'd even gotten up.Don't tell me to take out a classified ad.

The Best Evil Supercomputer In A Movie
2008-05-01 23:51:00
I am in the middle of a home-improvement crisis right now, and I am at the same time listening to "The Hampsterdance Song" (The club mix, not the radio edit. The radio edit would be lame. The club mix is both rocking and inspirational). Those two things, naturally, add up to my decision to determine which Evil Supercomputer was The Best.Don't bother trying to figure out how my mind works.Evil supercomputers are on my mind right now because I recently re-watched almost 30 minutes of Tron on DVD, a DVD I took out from the library because I remembered watching Tron when I was younger and wanted to see it again, but didn't want to pay to see it again. I only got through 20 minutes of it because of the various home-improvement crises, but 30 minutes was enough to remind me of the great evil supercomputer in that movie, and also to marvel at the way people used to think about computers.In Tron, you no doubt instantaneously recalled, the programs were represented by living people in clot...

You may recall that I am a lawyer, and I sometimes take a break from blogging to practice law. I would say roughly 90% of my clients come in as referrals from other lawyers; I am recognized as one of the few -- and one of the very good-- lawyers practicing in my area.I rely on the goodwill of those lawyers sending their clients to me, and I try to let them know that I appreciate it. One of the easiest and best way to do that is to send Thank you Cards to them whenever they refer a good case to me.A tasteful thank you card, like this one:Which you can order from CardsDirect, says a whole lot more than just "thank you." When I get a good referral in, I take the time to sit down, at the end of the day, and pen a personal little note in there, thanking the lawyer who sent me the client or case. It might be short -- thanks, so-and-so, for sending your friend to our firm. I always appreciate the chance to continue practicing [my area of law].Or it could be longer -- reminding the person o...

The Best Thing You Think Is A Number But Is Not.
2008-04-30 15:17:00
I'm going to blow your mind here. Did you ever stop to realize that numbers are invented?It just seems like they've always been here. It seems like a lot of things have always been here, but they weren't, always. Sure, we all know that things like phones and Cadbury Creme Eggs weren't always around and that modern society is heads and shoulders above the Aztecs because we have these things.That's right -- I just totally called out the Aztecs and I'm not afraid to highlight it. All you ever hear -- assuming that you hang around with this kind of crowd-- is how great the Aztecs were, but when you get right down to it, why? They couldn't even beat Cortes. And Cortes was a failed lawyer and failed philanderer who stumbled into conquest and who had only about 400 guys and 16 horses. So the Aztecs lost their land to a guy who couldn't even pass the bar. It's no wonder they didn't invent the Cadbury Creme Egg.It's easy for us to imagine life without Cadbury Creme Eggs and cell p...

And it's filled with a collection of historic and wonderful objet d'art -- that's "pretty stuff" to you and me-- like a Steinway grand piano, a Napoleon Death Mask Sculpture, Japanese porcelain vases, and more.It even comes with its own Hupmobile Roadster -- so in these times of high gas prices, I can motor around with the family in style and economy.I will, I unde...

The Best Emotion That's So Lame It's Cool.

Okay, I started this early, and I'm ending it early. I'm not ending it because I can't keep it up, but I'm bored with it. By now, you get the point: Things can be so lame they're cool, because The Cool ness Continuum dictates that.And those "things" can include things that aren't things at all, like "emotions." Emotion s are not things. They're... something that's not a thing. And the lamest of all emotions is "love."Love is, as an emotion, hopelessly lame. There are cool emotions, emotions that are just perfect the way they are. Like "happiness." Nothing wrong with "happiness." Happiness is awesome. Happiness makes you laugh along with the thing Joel McHale says. Happiness lets you walk with a bounce in your step. Happiness helps you get out of bed in the morning.Another cool emotion? Righteous indignation. This one is underused, but is very cool. It's not just being indignant, but righteously so -- so smack, there, in the description, you've got permission to feel indignan...

So, to let you in on a the way I look at life a little, let me tell you that pretty much everything I know about New York City is based on two television shows: Seinfeld and Friends. I'm also learning a little right now from How I Met Your Mother but it's pretty new, so I don't know how reliable it is. Based on Seinfeld and Friends, though, which are both extremely reliable and accurate sources of information, I can tell you without a doubt that finding an apartment in New York City is both simple and cheap. Being something of an expert on that I...... hang on a second. What? Really? Are you serious? Okay, I was typing this and as I was doing that, The Boy wandered through and mentioned that Seinfeld and Friends were both fictional.

The Best of Lame/Cool: The Best Comedian Who's So Lame He's Cool.
2008-04-13 20:34:00
April is Lame /Cool month-- the month I'm taking to explain (drive into the ground) the concept of things that are so lame they're cool. Let's all take a look at Jim Gaffigan over there on the left, before we consider how I'm kind of cheating here.What do you think? Granted, comedians are not exactly the most photogenic bunch of people. They probably developed comic abilities as a protective mechanism against people picking on them or turning them down for dates or otherwise rejecting or criticizing them. (I got rejected and picked on plenty, but never developed the comic abilities that some great comedians did. I did develop a pretty healthy set of neuroses, though, and those neuroses serve as their own form of protection.)(I hope.)(Those neuroses also serve to make me realize just how crazy I am, such as when I'll decide to have a bite-sized cookie, just one, at 9:00 p.m., and just after I swallow it, my collar feels tight, and my neck feels fatter, and I can almost feel my ch...

The Best of Lame/Cool: The Best TV Show That's So Lame It's Cool
