Let's get ready to rumble!

Would my "reverse twinkie" moniker get revoked if I admitted I didn’t like shark fin soup?

Last week, I had an unbelievable bottle of wine as a late birthday celebration with a co-worker at Rick's Wine Bar in Corte Madera. Great wine bar, btw. Alban Vineyards, Reva, Alban Estate Syrah 2004. It was a gorgeous wine...very dark and intense with balanced notes of pepper, wild berry, earth, coffee and tobacco and what seemed like a 10 minute finish.

I had a dream the other night that my two college roommates had it out. Toto beat the piss out of Bafaro. I was on the top bunk and my buddy Mitch, in his coaching attire complete with plaid tie, khakis, docs and clipboard, stood in the corner during the dismantling. Crazy dream! I can still feel the thuds of Toto's fists landing. Bafaro never once connected.

The BCS Championship Game was a yawner. Got to hand it to Urban Meyer, he bitched and moaned about the system and then stuck it to Ohio (who didn’t even show up). With the Chargers doing well and Florida winning, Marshall must be dancing in his recliner.

Divisadero would beat out any street in Chicago as the worst to drive on. I don’t understand it because it’s not like SF has the winters like Chicago does. I wouldn’t feel comfortable taking any vehicle except a SUV on it. “4 Wheel, 4 Real”

It might be due to the fact that I don't have a TV but is anybody watching the pro bball?
