After a painstaking process of moving my blog posts over from Blogger, I’m finally back in the blogging saddle again. It will take a bit before I hop in the formatting saddle, so stay patient.

For now, check out Steve Silver’s new syndicated column (the lede for which he got from yours truly), or Aaron Gleeman’s latest entry on the streaking Minnesota Twins.

Today is also Aaron’s 4th blogoversary. Congrats!

My blog was hijacked over the weekend, but I have recovered it. Sadly, it looks as though the formatting on my post titles did not survive the recovery.

It’s the one day a year I feel any school spirit for my alma mater: Boston University just won its 27th Beanpot. The other three schools (Boston College, Northeastern, and Harvard) have won 27 combined.

I’d sing the school song, but I don’t know it.

It’s my 27th birthday today. Which means it’s also Brandy’s 27th birthday. Happy birthday, Moesha!

Throwing at my Head

I received a wake-up call from A-Rod at 6 this morning after a mere 2 hours of sleep (oh please don’t ask why; no one quite knows the reason).

Not that this is another reason to hate the Yankees. Rather, it’s in indication of the sick sense of humor so pervasive among my group of friends in LA.

Also this post qualifies me for a “January 2006″ archive, which is nice.
