It is Fall Break here in the friendly confines of ETSU, and The Maven on a four-day vacation of debauchery, reading, football-watching, and house cleaning.
As much as I've bitched to my students about bloggers who sit in their underwear at 3am saying whatever the hell they want and their credibility, well (to quote Ronald Reagan), The Maven is joining the fray because I just can't help myself from ranting and raving about practically everything. It keeps the edge up... But this is a test of sorts to see how longer comments are put into the world versus a line or two on Facebook or Twitter (I refuse to say the word "tweet," it's gay).
The Maven is relatively calm this fine evening and must get her beauty rest to prepare for College Football Saturday, albeit w/ a bye week for Clemson, one well deserved after the beat-down on those rubes from Georgia Tech.
And if I hear one more sports knucklehead go on about A-Rod being benched, I'll scream. He's ineffective and mediocre at best and if he's not producing, sit his ass down, 100+ million dollar contract be damned. Mark my words, w/in the next two seasons, the Yankees will deal him, hopefully to a Triple-AAA team in Idaho...
Football rants to come. Stay tuned...
Why is gay always a euphemism for something being bad? I'm guilty of using it that way too, especially when I was a know nothing teenager, but now that I've aged, I find it really offensive. I'm just saying.
