Five More Random Things

1. The list of things that suck about living in Colorado is short, but at the top of the list is "When the Broncos beat the Chiefs" ...that and drivers hogging the left lane.

2. There is a pitcher for the Colorado Rockies named Mike Esposito. His uncle is Joe "Bean" Esposito. If that name sounds familiar, then you're pathetic like me because you know that Bean sang the lead vocals on "You're The Best" from "The Karate Kid" soundtrack. Because I used this song in an independent film I shot last year, I have it memorized (plus I've seen the movie over 80 times). I didn't get a chance to this year, but the next time I make it to a game, I'm finding Mr. Mike, and I'm going to sing him that song. If you'd like to join me, it could be a really, really fun group experience. I just want to know what his life experience has been in relation to that song and I think I'll know about halfway through the first verse. Look for an update on this in 2006...

3. If you're looking for me, you probably won't find me because I'm not looking for you and it's probably because I don't know I'm supposed to be. So don't get upset when we can't find each other even though one of us is looking and the other isn't and doesn't know to stay put because that's the best way to find someone you're looking for.
See how easy miscommunication is?

4. My front yard looks like a freaking golf course...donations to cover my water bill can be brought over anytime and while you're hear, stop...listen...and you'll here....

5. The faint, consistent chirping of a smoke detector whose battery has been running out ALL SUMMER LONG! The vacant house next to mine with the auditory beacon finally sold. I already have a pack of nine-volt batteries to give my new neighbors as a housewarming gift.
