Hm

It’s Thursday. Last night, I went to see the Bullets Wizards fail miserably at basketball. They made it competitive for a period or two, but then sunk back to their usual suckiness.

• Speaking of basketball, the college season is starting up. Your Aggies have an “exhibition game” against Texas A&M-Commerce tonight. I’m guessing that’s not televised.
• Apparently, some athletic club from the Bronx won a baseballing contest last night, which makes them champions of a world that includes only the United States and one city in Canada.
• Poor Malia Obama, whose dad went on the teevee yesterday and told everyone about that one time when she got a C on a science test. She needs to get some geeks from NASA to help her exact revenge.
• This man is a genius. The French sure don’t screw around when there’s wine to be drunk. My kind of people.
• I haven’t seen “V” yet. Has anyone? I missed its premiere, and will be precluded from watching it live because I have chorus rehearsals every Tuesday night. Is it good? It’s got the yummy Elizabeth Mitchell, so I’ll tune in just for that if I have to.
• Three-quarters of Americans who are eligible for military service are too fat, too sick and too dumb to serve. Huzzah.
• God bless Lisa Farbstein, a spokeswoman for Metro. I hope she hasn’t developed a bad drinking habit, because her job has got to suck.

I want a breakfast taco.
