It is edlolutley freaking hot here. Colorado. I'm sitting here at Zwei in the morning and the outside temperature is 76.5 Fahrenheit. Inside it's 85.3! At Two in the Freeking Morning?! Okay, okay, so we don't have the ubiquitous AC. We're poor and pitiable. Send a letter to Reader's Digest already.

As the KNBR announcer put it, "If you had written a script of this, no one would have believed it."

Today is Barry Bonds 39th birthday. In the top of the 9th inning, Arizona had two runners on base with no outs. Hillenbrand got a base hit into left field, and Craig Counsell, starting from 2nd base, rounded 3rd base at full tilt. Bonds, with a self-described "weak outfield arm," threw into home plate to get Counsell out.

Then, in the bottom of the 9th inning, Barry Bonds batted first. He swung on the first pitch and launched it into the seats behind center field, breaking the 2-2 tie and winning the ball game.

What else could a multi-millionaire baseball star want for his birthday?

You ever wonder what happened to that special DJ? The one with the sexy voice? The one with that razor-sharp wit? That one who got canned for making fun of a Girl Scout on the air? Well, look for him or her right here.

July is National Cell Phone Courtesy Month. Learn from bean-headed
dolts, human-resource consultants, and car salesmen! Follow these tips:

1. Let your voice carry over others when you’re in meetings,
courtrooms, restaurants or other busy areas.

2. If you must speak to the caller during a meeting or other
such event, such as your son's baptism, wave off others, plug your
other ear with your index finger, and speak loudly in an annoyed tone.

3. Speak in your "I really need to be noticed" tone. People tend to
speak more loudly than normal when on a wireless phone to distract others.

4. Do display anger during a public call. Conversations that
are likely to be emotional should be held where they will embarrass
or intrude on others. Punctuate your rage by banging your palm on
the table every other word.

5. Ignore discretion when discussing private matters or certain
business topics in front of others. You never know who is within
hearing range. Certainly, dining couples will love hearing you telling your
bowling buddies about your recent rectal examination.

6. If you still aren't getting enough attention, use the technology
your wireless phone provides to stay connected to offensiveness. The
vibrate function alerts you to calls in public places such as movie
theaters and religious services without bothering others. So don't use it.
Instead, choose the most annoying tone your cell phone comes with, like
"Take Me Out to the Ball Game".

7. Never use text messaging. This fast, silent service now
widely used in business keeps the information flowing without the
need to answer the phone or listen to voice mail. How much ego-necessary
attention can you get from THAT?

8. If you are expecting a call that can’t be postponed, alert
your companions ahead of time and shush them when the call
comes in; the people you are with shouldn't take precedence over
calls you want to make or receive.

9. If an individual is being disruptive on their cell phone in
public and it's drawing attention away from you, be confrontational.
If necessary, display your hostility by talking even louder on your phone,
six inches from the other person's face. Certainly don't discreetly bring the
problem to the attention of someone in authority who would resort to
tact and politeness.

10. Never practice wireless responsibility while you are driving.
Place calls when your vehicle is moving. Make or answer calls while
in heavy traffic or in hazardous driving conditions. Steer with your knee
while writing important information down on your dash-mounted notepad,
like what kind of cream will relieve those warts. Swerve from lane to lane
because you are talking to your girlfriends about how much you hate your
husband. Don't use a hands-free device in order to help focus attention on safety. Why should safety your most important call?

Speaking of the All-Star Game, who else thought Amy Grant just looked like someone's tired old mom? No smile, no light, no joy, no peace. Maybe divorce isn't such the hot ticket anymore, yeah? Vince Gill looked like the normal, partying country boy, though. Think he's happy?

Okay, I didn't blog for a really long time. Baaad boy. It's 'cuz once I got a real job with daytime hours, it was hard to stay motivated to "work" here, too. But I'm gonna try real hard.

I just watched the 2003 All-Star Friggin Game. Why did the NL lose? What up with THAT? I think Dusty Baker gets over-confident in middle innings when he's winning, just like in last year's Whirled Series. I'm just glad that Alou is coaching the SF Giants THIS year. Can I get an Amen?

I don't swear much. Really, I don't. But while watching a small segment of the 2003 Academy Awards, I called someone a Richard-head. But I used the more common abbreviated form. And although I felt slightly pacified in that this person was booed emphatically by many in the audience, I still feel the need to send the truth seekers here.

I have not posted in a few days; first I was at a men's retreat. Contrary to the rumors, we did not sit around beating handmade drums in our underwear. No, we were totally naked. Not! That's not true! We went to some very good sessions for live worship, and we were taught by the very funny and very inspirational Pastor Ron Swor from Canby, Oregon. Expect pictures here in a few days.

Currently, I'm suffering from one heck of a chest cold/infection. My temperature keeps fluctuating between 99.6 and 101.4. My normal temperature is 97.7, so this is not a "small" fever to me. Ugh. Tonight the SpongeBob episode where he gets the "suds" was on. It hit a little close to home.

I'm going to go curl up in a tight ball somewhere where it's warm. Maybe the hot water closet? That way I won't have to hear "American (Rough) Idle" in the other room.

Thanks to the Village People, saying I'm going away this weekend to be with the guys at the YMCA sounds a little strange, eh? But, no, I'll be at a retreat here.
