a story i meant to tell you and just now remembered.

last night, i was strolling down constable street (aka montague) and i passed an outdoor seating area of a cafe. its a pretty busy street. hundreds of people walking around. hundreds. anyway, there were three (3) gentleman dressed in business attire talking loudly enough that i could hear them from roughly half a block away. this is what i hear as i approach, pass, and continue walking:

"so he's explaining to me, and he says 'its the left part of the anus'. then he gets into all of the technical stuff and then boom-boom-boom, and it feels really good!!"

then they all break into uproarious laughter. the end.

bruce is staying!

KNOXVILLE, Tenn. -- Tennessee coach Bruce Pearl has a newly renegotiated six-year contract keeping him with the Volunteers. It came hours after reports surfaced that Memphis wanted to talk to Pearl about replacing John Calipari, who left for Kentucky.

Interim president Jan Simek and athletic director Mike Hamilton announced Thursday night that they and Pearl had agreed in principle to the new deal. Details will be released within the next few days.

Pearl said in a statement that Hamilton has been supportive and committed to making Tennessee one of college basketball's best jobs.

"I want to ensure the University of Tennessee and its fans that I'm 100 percent committed to this school, this program and our student-athletes," Pearl said. (espn)

[ i'm sorry, but when did jan simek become our interim president? did they SEE what he tried to do to the architecture school as interim dean? gross. ]

nErD aLeRt!

both the yankees' and the mets' new stadiums open today. nytimes architecture critic, nicolai ouroussoff reviews them:

What’s more, each stadium subtly reflects the character of the franchises that built them. Yankee Stadium is the kind of stoic, self-conscious monument to history that befits the most successful franchise in American sports. The new home of the Mets, meanwhile, is scrappier and more lighthearted. It plays with history fast and loose, as if it were just another form of entertainment. (nytimes)

FYI... in tv on right now news

Claiming that determining an unquestioned national champion through a playoff system "went against the very idea of sporting competition," and that the sheer exuberance of college basketball fans was "a shocking and nauseating display of everything wrong with collegiate athletics," top BCS officials roundly condemned the NCAA Tournament Monday.

get out of here, google!

Google's ambitious plan to offer a 3-D street level view of communities across three continents hit a snag when angry residents of a UK village blocked the search engine's camera car from photographing their homes.

Fearing the appearance of their well appointed properties on the Web site would attract criminals scouting for burglary targets, villagers in Broughton, north of London, summoned the police after spotting the car.

"I was upstairs when I spotted the camera car driving down the lane," resident Paul Jacobs told The Times of London.

"My immediate reaction was anger: How dare anyone take a photograph of my home without my consent? I ran outside to flag the car down and told the driver he was not only invading our privacy but also facilitating crime. (cnn)
