A brief rant about the pop/rock band de jour...

"The Killers"

Seriously. I really liked "Somebody told Me." In fact, whenever I hear it on the radio, I'll listen every time.

But I'm so freaking sick of "Mr. Brightside." Not only that, but they released a slower re-mix of the song several months ago. If you don't have any other songs on the album worth releasing, then hit the dang studio... don't slow down your other crappy song, and hope to get a few more months of airplay.

then again, that song is still being played on the radio, as well as on MTV Music Video awards.

*Pukes*

Kelly, I know you love "the Killers." Stop it, they suck.

I briefly met my childhood hero.

OK, so Deb takes a badly cropped Picture, but even without half his forhead, can anybody tell me who this childhood hero of mine I'm standing next to today?

THAT'S RIGHT SUCKAS! JOE FREAKING MONTANA!

I got him to sign my football. Now I need a new one to throw around, cause the old one's going in a case.

for those of you living under a Rock during the 80s and 90s:

Joe Montana, selected by the SanFrancisco 49ers in the third round of the 1979 National Football LeagueDraft, had a stellar career with the 49ers and Kansas City Chiefs. A master of late-game comebacks, Montana directed his teams to 31 fourth quarter come-from-behind wins during his illustrious career, including a 92-yard drive in the closing seconds of Super Bowl XXIII.
His uncanny ability to bring a team back from apparent defeat was so common that it simply became referred to as MontanaMagic. A true student of the game, Montana won the NFL�s passing title in both 1987 and 1989. He topped the NFC in passing five times (1981, 1984, 1985, 1987, and 1989).
Thirty-nine times he passed for more than 300 yards in a game, including seven times in which he surpassed 400 yards. His six 300-yard passing performances in the post-season are an NFL record. He also owns the career playoff record for attempts, completions, touchdowns, and yards gained passing.

Eleven times the New Eagle, Pennsylvania native led his team to the playoffs. Along the way, he captured nine divisional championships and victories in Super Bowls XVI, XIX, XXIII, and XXIV. His outstanding play in Super Bowls XVI, XIX, and XXIV earned him Most Valuable Player honors in each game.

Named All-NFL three times and All-NFC on five occasions, Montana was voted to the Pro Bowl eight times, which was a league record for a quarterback at the time. In 1992, after missing 31
consecutive games due to an injury to his throwing arm, Montana made a dramatic comeback. In the second half of the regular season finale, a Monday Night Football offering vs. the Detroit Lions, Montana performed his magic of old, completing 15 of 21 passes for 126 yards and two
touchdowns as the 49ers defeated the Lions 24-6.

In 1994 Montana became just the fifth quarterback to pass for more than 40,000 yards in a career. At the time of his retirement, he ranked fourth in career passing yardage (40,551 yards), attempts (5,391), and passing touchdowns (273). His 3,409 completionsranked third all-time, and his career passer rating of 92.3 was second all-time.
