Happy St. Patrick's Day!
The NCAA 2003 tourny bracket was announced yesterday,
and suprisingly UF was seeded #2 in the South. Which is not only higher than I
expected (most everyone figured a 3 or 4) but they'll be playing in Tampa as
well. Unfortunatly at $110 a ticket, I won't be going to the game in person, but
I'll definitly be watching on TV. This coming block from Thursday through Sunday
(well unless it gets delayed thanks to
Bush's War (tm)) is my favorite 4 sports days of the year, because it's constant
basketball the entire day. I LOVE March Madness, and I've already got my huge
posterboard sized bracket made and ready to fill out (yes, I'm that dorky).
Unfortunatly my other faovrite college team Texas Tech didn't make the dance,
even though I think they definitly deserved it. As for my picks, I think
Kentucky will win it all. They're an incredible team, and they've got the
momentum to go all the way. I'd love to be wrong with a Florida win against them
in the championship game (now wouldn't that be a great game to watch) though
:)
Future technology for the next 10 years? A
lot of this stuff is definitly plausible, so who knows. Liquid TV...... awwwww
yeah
Bush also gave his war
speech tonight, which essentially declared war on Iraq if Saddam didn't
leave within 48 hours. Which no world leader in their right mind would ever
leave their country when threatned by another one, so now Bush is going to use
this completely ridiculous request as justification for a war. Gotta love Iraq's
response though "Why doesn't Bush leave office then?".
And finally, a true quote
by a Nazi war criminal:
"Of course the people don't want war. But after all, it's the leaders of the
country who determine the policy, and it's always a simple matter to drag the
people along whether it's a democracy, a fascist dictatorship, or a parliament,
or a communist dictatorship. Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought
to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is tell them
they are being attacked, and denounce the pacifists for lack of patriotism, and
exposing the country to danger."
-- Herman Goering
