4) Pilkington is brilliant. Love him.

Caught some clips from the new show "An Idiot Abroad" on youtube last night. Good stuff. I just found this guy and I can't stop laughing. Gervais, Merchant and Pilkington work very well together.

3) My mom has graciously offered to babysit this Saturday night. My wife and I are going to a motel, then grab burgers, then go to a bookstore.

Hourly rate?

F that...they got a babysitter.

Update: Mom is spending the night too, so we can stay out as late as we want.So do we go to the motel first, then go out, or motel after going out? I kinda like the idea of hitting the motel first. Always better to do that before you eat, if possible.

If it's not hourly rate (LOOK AT ME I DON'T LIVE IN THE GHETTO!!) - motel, eat, bookstore, motel.

This might be the way to go.

I seriously think someone needs to spend a late round pick on Studs and Duds' "Motorcycle Diaries."

Still a better read than Rand.

Probably not as good as Norwood taking "the plane from Wings" in the Sitcom Character Draft, but pretty good.

I got a new FBGs username. Also made the love to my wife last night, which, given prior postings, seems to warrant a mention.

I forgot to add your username change. The love making makes you an over-achiever. Save some energy for next week.

Maybe I'll take one of those books with Fabio on the cover for my love story.

Coinciding with a 1 year lull in our eat-off thread, no less.

I've lost 10 pounds since the eat-off ended. Seriously.

You're knocking the cover off the ball. Good for you.Just ran 3.5 miles in 30 minutes. Hoping to do a half marathon in 2 hours or less by June. We'll see. It's....it's a goal.

Is this exchange some kind of sick joke? Well it's not funny. Quite the opposite actually, it hurts to read this. This is a sad day for America. I guess the terrorists won. Instead of posting pictures of yourselves stuffing your less-than-skinny faces with beautiful food, perhaps in 2011 you could post pics of yourselves running on treadmills in fancy spandex outfits. Or maybe a pic of you 2 sharing a stick celery "Lady And The Tramp" style. Selfish jerks. Whatever. I'm done ranting, I'm gonna go eat some red meat with mayo on the side.

I'm not helping. I bought Baconnaise Lite.

Is "a bookstore" code for the bar? Sound like the "The Library", a bar by the University of Minnesota.

I quit facebook

Also I'm strongly considering shifting my obsession from Emma Stone to Rachel Nichols (not the ESPN one).

I've been on this obsession for about 18 months now.

Just want to let you guys know I'm probably going to strangle my wife tonight. I think a couple people could track down my real name, and TRE knows the city I live in, so you'll be able to see me in the papers. Hopefully they have the internet in prison.

I have his real name, PM me if you want it, or want to harass Frosty for any reason.

Bonus points if you make it a hat trick and get it on in the Borders bathroom.

Nope. Still on Stone, but that was close.

I have your name too unless you've changed it since I put it in my phone.

How much do babysitters charge these days? Assume one kid (well-behaved 2nd grader), who will be asleep the vast majority of the evening.

So many things I want to say here.I like posting here too much to say them, though.

Oh what, you can't find one that would just sleep with you in exchange for babysitting services?:h-bus:

I pay minimum wage but it's 4 kids and minimum wage is $10/hr.

We met with lead band dork of the marching band today. This is either going to be the most awesome idea in the history of Super Bowl party ideas, or it is going to be a complete . Either way, it will be fun. They are going to play a 20-minute set including such epics as Eye of the Tiger and Hold On, I'm Coming.

We're also flying in a friend from Chicago to provide pre-game entertainment. He's, hmmmmm, interesting would be the best word.

Early, thanks for the thought on filming it. I hadn't even considered it. I guess we'll need to borrow a video camera from someone.

Is it going to be Albini doing a dramatic reading of his 90's essay "Some of Your Friends Are Already This ####ed", an accurate depiction of the perils of signing to a major label?

Thank you for laughing, I'm pretty sure that one was just for you.

Yes. And shower first.

Homer>you would love it in Thailand and Cambodia. I'm not what you'd call an attractive man, and I've gotten so many uncomfortable stares from uncomfortably young asian girls. I feel like a walking lottery ticket. I've had "I love you" yelled at me as I walk away.

GB urban dictionary.What is the usual buy-in for a square on a super bowl squares game?BTW, I know someone mentioned earlier looking for a $25/square game. I heard tell today of one in MN (I think, or was it WI?) where the buy-in is $500/square. Let me know if interested.
