see you there, starla.

it's a bye week.

grantland's holly anderson took the trip to oklahoma with the vols and wrote all about them and how cute they are.

Right about here, these guys get loud. Before each home game, seven of former Vols coach Robert Neyland’s game maxims are recited in the stadium bearing his name, and the sound of 100,000 or so voices trying to keep time feels like a rhythmless roar in the open UT air. The 70 or so voices doing it in a cramped visitors’ locker room are entirely in unison, and the volume is skull-rattling. The cadence speeds up as they go along, and when they finish blurting out the final maxim (“CARRY THE FIGHT TO OKLAHOMA AND KEEP IT THERE FOR 60 MINUTES”), they turn and run for the field. Just as they hit the stadium concourse leading back to that ramp, ominous bell-tolling sounds roll in, signaling the Sooners’ emergence. It’s just dark enough to see pregame fireworks burst and glitter behind the top rows of bleachers.

chillz!!

i am really going to miss watching all those young individuals mature this weekend. and i'm also going to miss watching them crush georgia's dreamz next weekend because i'll be on a mountaintop helping erin macbreath get married. starla will have to miss it too though, so that helps.

valentines day?

starla tried to glitter bomb the boston marathon finish line

this suspicious character was observed leaving some kind fake bomb full of confetti on boylston street. all i know is that i'd recognize that hat anywhere.

starla: what

me: tell me
what do you think of this
i think you're gonna like this one

starla: yeah i don't hate it
i like bitches and the dranks!

next is one from starla's favorite celebrity couple, "nobody's business" by rihanna, featuring chris brown:

me: well here's something youre sure to love
this is a preview of the new ri-ri breezy collabo

starla: ughhhh
i hate him
but let me listen

starla: nope
negative
i don't even like her anymore

me: i like the song though!
you have to admit, it's catchy

starla: nope
i am over him
and her

me: fair enough

there you have it! this has been the second edition of starla's dozen.

blackberry shame is real

in today's edition of "the oldest news on the internet", the new york times brings us their latest trend piece, which addresses an issue that 2Pz correspondents DJV and (never trust) starla continue to struggle with on an hourly basis:

“I’m ashamed of it,” said Ms. Crosby, a Los Angeles sales representative who said she had stopped pulling out her BlackBerry at cocktail parties and conferences. In meetings, she says she hides her BlackBerry beneath her iPad for fear clients will see it and judge her.

The BlackBerry was once proudly carried by the high-powered and the elite, but those who still hold one today say the device has become a magnet for mockery and derision from those with iPhones and the latest Android phones. Research in Motion may still be successful selling BlackBerrys in countries like India and Indonesia, but in the United States the company is clinging to less than 5 percent of the smartphone market — down from a dominating 50 percent just three years ago. The company’s future all depends on a much-delayed new phone coming next year; meanwhile RIM recorded a net loss of $753 million in the first half of the year compared with a profit of more than $1 billion a year earlier.

shame shame shame.

thx bun-bun!

starla's dozen

nEw bLoG fEaTcH alert!!!1111

i asked starla to tell me her thoughts on what i consider to be the song of the summer, solange aka basement baby's new single, "losing you".

me: have you listened to this new solange song?
starla: i can't deal with basement baby
me: pretend its not her and listen
starla: is she in a jungle?
sounds like wild birds are attacking
i like it but not that chirping
it is distracting

next, i then asked her to review the new foray into dubcountrytwostep by trashball tay tay swifferstickz, called "i knew you were trouble".

starla: i love taylor
love
you like it don't you
just admit it
me: i don't care for it, no.
starlas's new status message - kylie loves taylor swift 3:58 PM

the northeast has the most readers, but the south mistakenly thinks its a good-ass book. why are they pointing at tennessee like that? clearly mississippi is worse, like always.

for starla:

She's reading it you know.  How emBEARassing!

charity (case) UPDATE

look what happened! it seems like the odds are ever in science's favor as he streaks towards the top.

A Little Birdie Told Me...

that Starla is planning to run a marathon in San Diago, and now this thing has washed up on the beach in "America's Finest City" (oyr!).

Coincidence? I don't thinks so.

what is starla doing this weekend?

The ONE Time I Try Taking Starla to a Museum!

A drunk woman punched and rubbed her butt on a painting at the Clyfford Still museum in Denver.  The painting, pictured above, is titled "1957-J no.2.".  She also tried, unsuccessfully, to pee on it. [via]

UPDATE!! just wanted to point out that we've been scooped by 2Pz reader leigh anne, who writes news as a profession. i don't see any way that this doesn't reflect well on our humble publication. (pats own back)

the plot thickens
