Monday Morning Musins'
The weekend has come and gone, and things are, well, different, than they were just a few days ago. For one thing, we are back on daylight savings time and although I awoke at my usual "rise and shine" 5:30AM the clock says it is actually 6:30AM, and therefore I don't have my usual amount of time to write and post. So, in the interest of time and our short 21st century attention spans, I'll go about this in bulleted fashion. If you sat through an Hour of PowerPoint at church yesterday, please accept my apologies beforehand.
- Nancy Grace has given up on her Church of Christ cult hunt (not enough "traction" apparently) and has turned her keen journalistic eye and prosecutorial Death Ray from the Winkler case to the Duke Lacrosse Team
- Anderson Cooper of CNN, the day after Ms. Grace "interviewed" Rubel Shelley, showed considerably more decency and journalistic integrity to his Church of Christ guest, Dr. Billy Smith, Dean of the School of Biblical Studies at Freed-Hardeman University
- Unlike Ms. Grace, Mr. Cooper asked intelligent questions, allowed Dr. Smith to complete his sentences and graciously thanked Dr. Smith at the end of the interview
- Way to go Anderson--your responsible handling of the story and your attempt to repair the damage incurred by Ms. Grace have been noted and appreciated
- The above bullets are further evidence that Ocular Fusion is a "fair and balanced" blog
- The Florida Gators stole Cinderella's slippers, kissed her on the cheek and sent her packin' in her pumpkin
- The UCLA men have a chance to win their 12th National Championship tonight (as if they needed another one)
- Question: Will anybody actually watch this game?
- I am the world's worse college basketball pundit and prognosticator
- There is hope for disappointed Duke fans: the women's basketball team exacted a measure of revenge from LSU and has made it to the national title game against Maryland to be played on Tuesday night
- Another question: Which do you think will win the ratings war, the women's title game or this?
- Duke could really use a national title in a women's sport to deflect attention from the men's lacrosse team
- Later this week on Ocular Fusion: a Very Large Fish Story
- Speaking of fish stories, I bought someone's April Fool's joke hook, line and sinker
- The dog is starting to whine to be let out, so I have to go now
- Man, I'm really tired this morning--how about you?
