In The Beginning...

Inspired by new ESPN collumnist Scoop Jackson, I will start of this blog with a few things I believe, hope, or desire.

- I believe that First Avenue is the greatest concert venue in the world.

- I hope that George Bush the second does not completely destroy what's left of the USA's good name in the next three years.

- I believe that patriotism requires us to ask questions and demand answers.

- I believe that not enough people have ever experienced the joy that is the first tee time of the day.

- I believe that Minneapolis is the most under-rated city in the United States, and love it more for that reason.

- I believe that Gin and Vodka are superior to Wiskey and Rum.

- I believe that Roger Clyne and the Peacemakers are the best band that nobody has heard of. Not necessarily because of their music, but because they play every show like it was their last, and truely appreciate their fans.

- I hope Michael Jackson is found guilty, I believe he will be found innocent.

- I desire to see KG hoist the NBA Trophy high over his head before he retires. Ideally with the Timberwolves, but any team (other than the Lakers) will do.

- I believe that the Minnesota Twins are the Anti-Yankees.

- I believe that I could subsist on peanut butter and honey sandwiches alone.

- I desire to be a rock-star or a professional golfer in my next life.

- I believe that American Pop-Culture is getting dumber by the day.

- I desire to see Bob Odenkirk and David Cross produce new episodes of Mr. Show.

- I believe that the catch-i-est song on the radio right now is "Daft Punk is Playing At My House" by LCD Soundsystem.

- I believe that 89.3 The Current, is the greatest radio station to grace the Twin Cities airways in the last 7 years.

- I hope that I don't die in a fire.

- I believe that Legends is an under-rated bar, and that Drink is way over-rated.

- I believe that the NCAA Men's B-ball tourney is the single greatest sporting event in team sports.

- I believe that the Masters golf tournament is the greatest event in individual sports.

- I hope I never pay $3 a gallon for gas, but I belive I will... soon.

- I believe that everyone will have a blog by the year 2055.
