As I don't have one topic to discuss, here are some bullet point topics that I just have smaller comments about:
  • Rick Rolling the NY Mets: Thanks to Fark.com, a vote on the Mets website to determine the 8th inning song resulted in Rick Astley's "Never Gonna Give You Up" as winning (and yes I voted for the Astley song). However... sad news:
    Rather than commit to that as the new eighth-inning tune since it probably doesn’t reflect the fan base’s wishes, the Mets will play the top six selections once apiece during the first six games of their home stand. The one that draws the largest crowd response will stick.
    This is sad news. But at least it still has a chance. Oh well...
  • I am convinced that the MTA is run by some crazy old prospector guy. There's a notice on the 4/5 subway line stating that the 5 train and the 2 train are going to be switching places. Meaning that the 5 is going to run on the 2 line, and the 2 on the five line. The reason? The MTA is doing electrical work on the 5 line. Ok... now... if they're doing electrical work on the 5 line... shouldn't they halt service? I do believe that the 2 train running on that line will still be using electricity... next thing you know they're going to raise fares again.
  • One sees some strange people on the train at 6am. Like this guy on the J who was downing a Pabst Blue Ribbon like no tomorrow. Someone got an early start today.
  • I have probably the coolest UPS guy who stops at our floor. We talk gaming, tech and metal music. And I may get him playing WoW.
Well... enough of the inane ramblings for today.
