i hate sports

I want to put my head through a wall right now. Everyone in my department is yammering endlessly about football today. Football! Christ, the season ended only a month ago, and these guys are already speculating and salivating about next season. Why can't I work with people who talk about Mike Patton instead of Peyton Manning? I hate sports with a passion.

Speaking of Mike Patton, I just bought the live DVD of his collaboration with Norwegian composer John Kaada. Do yourself two favors: stop reading my whining, and buy this DVD! Filmed in moody monochrome, the release documents a one-time-only performance at the Roskilde Festival in 2005. And damn, is this band tight! Check out this clip as well as others on YouTube.

Time to take an early lunch and do some deep-breathing meditation. Thanks for letting me vent.

Ahhhh! Office discussions of football: one of the few things more annoying than office discussions of American Idol. I feel your pain!
