I am back in the womb. I hear nothing but the rush of blood and distant shouting

I wasn't even sure, in my panic, if wired mice ever existed or if I'd just dreamed them

SIX HOURS OF MUD SLINGING MAYHEM AT THE HOOSIERDOME

It’s just been stunning, over and over again. They had a few similar games in the back half of the regular season, too. They’re likely going to need some more magic, but I wouldn’t bet against it at this point.

Also I am going to be in Indy anyway next week and have a ticket to a potential Game 6.

You can’t really rule anything out at this point

I am on the stage in this scene, and I rush the court at the end. My mother is in red plaid in the stands above Hackman and the bench at the beginning. Everyone in the stands was either a teacher or student at my high school... www.youtube.com/watch?v=_gEt...

I was an extra in Hoosiers when I was in high school. I was on set for three days. Hackman was supposedly a terror to the director and crew, but he was so kind to me and the hundreds of other starstruck rural folk who asked him for pictures.

I was an extra in Hoosiers (I got to rush the court after Ollie's underhand free-throws). Hackman was supposedly a terror to the director, but he was a kind gentleman to the hundreds of starstruck Indianafolk who asked him for photos over the few days I was on set.

I'm a Costco fan; might have been a thing at my local store, I dunno. Not trying to knock the whole enterprise.

If you’re wondering whether my wife had left me alone with the dogs for the weekend, well, you’re not wrong

I bought tires there too, but when they put them on they told me they didn’t do alignment, so I had to shell out for that elsewhere.

One time I left Costco with only the following: a pair of jeans, a bottle of whiskey, and a flat screen television.

The dad was wrangling the girl and her sister and sighed heavily and talked to her very patiently about her behavior, and the look he gave me suggested he’d have preferred I’d have done nothing.
