i try to fill the silence up

++ Wow. I just tried Antique Lace and I am sooooooooo glad I never succumbed to the temptation to pay a bazillion dollars for it on ebay or something. It's pure plasticky vanilla on me. Ugh. And speaking of bpal...[Bad username or site: alchemylab / @ livejournal.com]? Has just gotten INSANE. Insane.

++ Dontrelle Willis won the Cy Young. Will wonders never cease?

Just kidding :-P They totally haven't announced yet. [Okay, they just announced. Carp won, 20 points ahead in the final count over Willis -- Ed.]

++ Raffy won't be charged with perjury. Which I hope means we've heard the last of him for awhile. But I'm sure I've got an icon that talks about being that optimistic.

++ For those curious about Reese's voice work in Walk The Line:

Johnny Cash & June Carter - Jackson

Joaquin Phoenix & Reese Witherspoon - Jackson

++ Folks who chat with me on AIM: I feel the need to put this out there, since I'm spending more time on AIM than I have in a really long while, and I'm probably off on the etiquette...but honestly? If I'm logged in on AIM, and not away? I'm still probably doing 5 or 6 other things while chatting with you, so if I don't respond for a couple minutes, for the love of God, it is not necessary to be all "hey, you still there?" and "hello?" and all that. It drives me nuts. Seriously. I'm sorry if it makes me a bitch that I'm not giving you my undivided attention, but that's just how I roll.

Also, please, please, please don't IM me the second I log on. Because sometimes, oftentimes, I'm just logging on to check for someone who I haven't been able to get in touch with in another way, and when I'm doing that, I'm usually pressed, and I hate to log off without responding, but I just don't have time to explain that I'm not hanging around.

So. Yeah. That's all. I wish it weren't so warm here, it's throwing me off :-/

**laughs** They just announced Carp won a close vote over Dtrain :-P

[caruso.livejournal.com]

how close was carp to clemens? or did clemens' lack of offense kill him?

and wtf is up with ESPN simulating GM conferences with steve phillips?

[ayrdaomei.livejournal.com]

I didn't see, the MLB alert just said he won over Willis by 20 points, I think.

And I have no idea. Jeff and I were talking about those the other day. So fucking lame.

[caruso.livejournal.com]

ah. i wonder where you can look that stuff up. baseball-reference?

i wonder if they'll get to us or if they'll only do the "good" teams :P stupid ESPN.

[ayrdaomei.livejournal.com]

Actually, I'm pretty sure that if the individual tallies aren't up already, they'll be up shortly. I know the MLB.com article showed the vote breakdown for the AL Cy Young.

And I believe they're doing all 30 teams; I'm not sure of the order though, and I don't know which teams have already been done. I know one day they did the Yanks and then the next day it was the Cubs, so...

[caruso.livejournal.com]

okay, well i'll keep my eye out for the tigers fake press conf. maybe d² could learn a thing or two. :P like how he should go for matt morris too.

[ayrdaomei.livejournal.com]

Check out this espn article for the vote breakdown (http://sports.espn.go.com/mlb/news/story?id=2219739). Clemens got killed. Only 2 first place votes, and only 2 second place votes.

that kind of comes as a surprise to me. since, like, gammons was all blowing smoke up rogah's ass and all . . .

[ayrdaomei.livejournal.com]

You're like the second person in as many days to seem surprised Gammons was wrong about something. I realize he's in the HOF, but he's been something of a dumbass for years. The end.

[caruso.livejournal.com]

i'm not terribly surprised gammons was wrong, i'm more suprised it wasn't even close. 'cause the way he was going it seemed like a lot more writers were in clemens' court.

hi, I'm randomly butting in on other peoples' Cy Young conversations and wailing.

*wail*

[ayrdaomei.livejournal.com]

I thought I heard you. There, there, dear. He's young yet, and he's amazing, and there will be Cy Youngs in his future. **knocks on wood** Worry not.

[jaredsexual.livejournal.com]

...i think I need some tea. tea fixes everything. uh-huh :\

I feel like going to Oakland and giving him a big hug. not like I don't feel like doing that every single day...

[caruso.livejournal.com]

*flail*

*hug*

[jaredsexual.livejournal.com]

heee, you rhymed with me.

*hugs back*

:) I'll be ok...*opens up mlb.tv*
