Danica Patrick

I don't care much about auto racing, but this weekend's Indy 500 has brought up some interesting gender discussions. If Danica gets angry for being pushed into the wall and confronts a male driver, she should be treated just like any other driver, right? It has nothing to do with gender. If she wants equal treatment, she should expect that if she pushes a competitor, he can push back. Just a thought.

Kobe wins MVP

Sports writers and talk show hosts who talk about the MVP award all think Kobe has had better seasons. He has. This is not his best statistical season. However, this is the first year that he is having a feel good season. His points are down, but he has become a "better team player". Amazing how winning solves a lot of problems. He finally has a team around him that compliments his playing and so...the Lakers are winning. When you combine the best player in the league with some decent supporting cast, they win! Hopefully, Kobe will be winning another award toward the end of the playoffs.

I like lists...

I always see lists on other people's blogs and I like lists...

1. Playing 80 oz. to Freedom or Edward 40 hands makes me a drunk idiot.
2. Nick and Kara make cute babies. It's not that I don't want kids, I just am afraid my kids are going to be really weird looking/have Jordan's personality!
3. Not So Silent Bob is an enabler. And had an almost mullet when he was younger.
4. Sushi rice has sugar in it according to the sushi chef in Denver, who told us this while he was taking wagers on the Laker/Denver game from cute hostesses.
5. When your sushi takes awhile it's not cause you are wearing Laker's jerseys in Denver.
6. C4 and Brownie have interesting blog conversations.
7. It's May already.
8. Hashers on unicycles are a little odd.
9. Denver really wanted the Lakers to win. There were signs everywhere. The flowers were even gold and purple.
10. If Houston beats Utah, NBN should come to Houston and watch more Laker wins!
11. Never start punching arm of drunk NBN. Especially when I am also drunk. It equals waking up the next morning with vicious bruise. (Which I have to cover up lest people think I am married to an abuser!)
12. I miss Colorado. It was one of those situations where I didn't appreciate what I had until I left.
13. However, where we live has a lot more green and trees and is WAY less dry. So I guess I should just be happy where ever I am in life.
