KG is just an OG

I don't know if I can look up to Kevin Garnett any more as a guy who truly understands the concept of team, discipline and fun. The dude is just too legit. TOO legit. Look at these pics. Him and Chauncey Billups messin' at a charity shopping spree in Minneapolis in '01. Him and Randy Moss swappin' jerseys in '99. The chest pounding floor general, rallying his team around his focus and intensity. Him and Marbury, mugging for the magazines in '98. Dude is just the real deal.

Love Is in the Air

It's Valentine's Day. So I thought maybe it's time to show a little love to this blog that I've callously ignored for almost two years. Rekindle that fire. Fuel the romance between me and myself. Buy myself a heart-shaped box of Russell Stover chocolates and plow through them like Robert Baratheon over a boar. Happy Valentine's Day, baby. You look great.

Today is a great night to go bar hopping, isn't it? I mean, aside from Halloween, when has there ever been an easier ice-breaker?

"Hi there...so, it looks like you don't have anyone pampering you tonight? Would you like one?"

Not sure how that one would go over, but don't use it as gospel...just a launching off point. The gist is that mutual loneliness, like a great Halloween costume, is a fantastic ice-breaker. So use it to your advantage.
