Nothing ruins a semester quite like an incredibly boring class before lunch. Nothing.

It would be a lot of fun to take batting practice from Tim Wakefield.

TBS should start a new network for showing "The Shawshank Redemption" 24/7.

Stefani
Is there such a thing as a music video that does not have Gwen Stefani or Missy Elliot in it? The amount of airtime they combine for on MuchMusic is absurd.

The phrase "Back in the day" has really worn out its welcome.


How disappointing must it be to train for months, years even, for an Olympic event, only to fall down two seconds into your race? Heartbreaking.

I would pay a lot of money for one book of all-new Calvin and Hobbes strips. Am I alone here?

If there was a "Best Band With a Weird Name" award, I would vote for the Flaming Lips. (Badly Drawn Boy would be the runner-up).

As cliché as the term may be, I think that if I looked up "sellout" in the dictionary, a picture of Rivers Cuomo would be there.

I will be surprised if I ever have to use the periodic table after I graduate from high school.

Smile, Big Brother is watching.

It is just wrong that "The Lord of the Rings: Fellowship of the Ring" and "Moulin Rouge" combined for 21 Oscar nominations, while "Memento" and "The Royal Tenenbaums" got two and one, respectively.

Those four films, plus "Pearl Harbor", are the only nominees this year that I have seen, so the rest of my complaints will be made in ignorance.

Did "Training Day" really receive two acting nominations, or am I dreaming?

When I become an actor, I will have to remember that the Academy has a soft spot for people who play mentally-handicapped characters (see: Sean Penn).

If the acting thing falls through, maybe I can become an Olympic figure skating judge. It seems to pay well.

Can you imagine how much bigger the figure skating 'scandal' would have been if Sale and Pelletier were American, rather than Canadian?

It is always a sad time when Oscar-bait season ends, and movies like "Rollerball", "Crossroads", and "Queen of the Damned" become the hot new releases.

Speaking of "Crossroads", this is an actual excerpt from Roger Ebert's review: "Spoiler warning! Stop reading now unless you want to learn the dismal outcome of their trip, as Lucy's mom informs her she was a "mistake," Kit's fiance turns out to have another woman and to be guilty of date-rape, and Mimi, who was the rape victim, has a miscarriage." For some reason, this just cracks me up. Talk about misleading advertising.

If Miss Cleo is shut down, who will tell me how my future will turn out?! In all seriousness, I would be happy to see her go just so I never have to see those commercials again. Ever.

Williams
Jayson Williams: Easy-going NBC basketball analyst or COLD-BLOODED KILLER? The plot thickens.

Spring training has begun. Baseball season is coming.
