Let's play two

About Me

I saw The Wedding Singer in the theater 8 times.
Open Arms by Journey will always remind me of strip clubs.
I have this irrational fear that drinking too much coffee will turn my teeth black.
I refuse to drink Pepsi.
I'd like to be invited to Paula Deen's house for dinner.
I am currently using a spoon as a bookmark.
People that talk a lot make me nervous.
I will answer to burrito.
I loathe those red exclamation points that suggest the importance of an email.

Oh yeah, and check out this project I'm working on.

I'd like to meet:

Anyone I'd hate less than I hate most people, Adam Sandler, and people that know the difference between your and you're and their, they're, and there.

While I don't mind meeting new people, I know the majority of the people on my friends list and probably won't add you unless you have something interesting to say. The biggest factor in your favor will be literacy.

Also, if it appears you are collecting a harem of fat chicks or chicks with big boobs, I won't accept so don't bother.

My comments area is not available advertising space. Any comments with ads will be deleted unless you're going to pay me for use of that space.

Television:

Television is the background noise of my life.

Books:

I don't have time for books. I read blogs:
The Alarm Clock
Mashable
Paid Content
Venture Beat
Giga Om
Hypebot
TALENTfilter
Valley Wag
The Site is Dead

My Blog

D. Lee, what's up?

Today was a money spending day. I'm not really sure what instigated it, given that I haven't been paid for a few weeks and won't be paid until the end of the month, but I splurged on a new phone. To...

I have two things to say:

And of course one of them is about baseball (softball):I'm an opposite field hitter. No matter what I do, I really can't pull the ball. Most times it works in my favor. I probably wouldn't have as ...

Proof that I'm drunk...

...I bought Slow Gherkin at Amoeba just because it was on clearance. Want more proof? I bought NEW CDs at Amoeba.

Dear Last.fm,

I would never "love" a Toasters track. They should never appear on "My Loved Tracks" radio. Seriously, how the fuck did that happen? It almost makes me want to ask for my money back. If this happe...

Ok, I won't write about baseball...

but let me first say that had I not overslept this morning, I wouldn't have missed Bedard's stellar 7 inning, 10K, no ER game. :(On to more important things:I don't really believe in taking notes. I'...

I feel like watching Field of Dreams

The one constant through all the years, Ray, has been baseball. America has rolled by like an army of steamrollers. It has been erased like a blackboard, rebuilt and erased again. But baseball has mar...

Dear baseball,

I love you, and I think you might love me back, but I'm just not too sure right now.  Please check where appropriate:___yes___no

I hope

Maddux gets shelled today. But I probably just jinxed that from happening since I just wrote it in a public forum, and the baseball gods don't take kindly to those types of things.
