first, i'm listening to the radio (jim rome - the jungle) and i hear this commercial. no, it's not the one advertising my time share. it's one of these onstar ads. now, you may not know this, but now the offer a turn by turn direction service so you don't need a gps or whatever. anyway, the commercial that i just heard annoys me. and it annoys me every time i hear it. essentially, this guy calls in and asks for directions to some place. as they start to give him directions, he interrupts to tell the operator that he actually knows the directions, he just wanted to use the service. the operator is like, "i know, it's great. call us any time. we're idiots here with nothing to do." well, i may have added that last line. but, really, if you're that operator, wouldn't you be thinking, "hey guy, we're not your monkeys, just sitting around waiting for you to boss us around. we could be unlocking doors, or calling emergency services for people who have crashed into a ditch." really, this is the real phone call that they picked to advertise their service? some guy bothering your operator with an unnecessary call. sign me up, i've got plenty o' free time to annoy people. would i get labeled and then have a boy that called wolf situation?
second, england is playing brazil today. or, as they have it on the spanish channel i'll be watching, inglaterra vs brasil. alas, i'll be watching via tape delay, as i have something to do from about 12-2 when the game is on. but i'll catch my tape after that. michael owen insists that he'll score today. we'll see. we will see. i'm also interested to see how beckham plays. he set up a really nice goal for real madrid the other day.
finally, i saw this cat sleeping in our gutter this morning.
wha? he's not sleeping? anyone know who you call to get that taken care of? city? spca?

wow. i was just watching highlights of luce libres (or however you spell the name of them wrasslers in spanish) and they were just showing sick highlights of guys getting injured with their high flying antics. crazy stuff.
You could probably call the city. Also, perhaps you a sign stuck in the grass that says free cat.
turns out you call the spca.
whatever happened to animal control? And that cat looks like Sophia! Ok maybe more like Sophia after she has been dieting for a year but still.
i think animal control is spca
That is the little cat I saw yesterday running across the street. I miss that cat.
