Olympic Comments
Aug. 25th, 2008 01:39 pmHere are the top nine comments made by NBC sports commentators during the Summer Olympics that they would like to take back:
1.Weightlifting commentator: 'This is Gregorieva from Bulgaria. I saw her snatch this morning during her warm up and it was amazing.'
2.Dressage commentator: 'This is really a lovely horse and I speak from personal experience since I once mounted her mother.'
3.Paul Hamm, Gymnast: 'I owe a lot to my parents, especially my mother and father.'
4.Boxing Analyst: 'Sure there have been injuries, and even some deaths in boxing, but none of them really that serious.'
5.Softball announcer: 'If history repeats itself, I should think we can expect the same thing again.'
6.Basketball analyst: 'He dribbles a lot and the opposition doesn't like it. In fact you can see it all over their faces.'
7.At the rowing medal ceremony: 'Ah, isn't that nice, the wife of the IOC president is hugging the cox of the British crew.'
8.Soccer commentator: 'Julian Dicks is everywhere. It's like they've got eleven Dicks on the field.'
9.Tennis commentator: 'One of the reasons Andy is playing so well is that, before the final round, his wife takes out his balls and kisses them... Oh my God, what have I just said?'

What do we sing about, when we sing about the body? The chart above is based on a sample of thousands songs, tells the story. The size of a circle corresponds to how often that part is mentioned in each genre. Click on a genre name to see a close-up that shows exactly what words were used.

Who drives this Van?
Aug. 25th, 2008 11:23 pmFor about 15 years, maybe more, I always see this van parked in the Castro. Most times it's on Castro, usually near the corner of 18th and Castro. Wonder who drives it? And the company is known for detecting leaks, in pipes, or in radiant heating pipes buried in cement slabs.
Of course my reeling, nasty mind also thinks, Leak Detection? Leak Specialists? Is he into yellow hankies?? ;)
