Last year I had a gardener, Tom. He lives next door to me. Tom planted all kinds of tasty stuff in my backyard: tomatoes, bell peppers, lettuce, brussel sprouts, tomatoes, strawberries, tomatoes. Tom did about 95 percent of the work. I just ate the stuff.
This year Tom didn't seem interested in being my gardener. So I decided that I would do the work myself. I cleared out about half as much land as he had utilized last year and planted tomatoes and sweet peppers. Then I proceeded to watch it become overrun with weeds. It's now just an impenetrable mass of vegetation. Somewhere in there are probably some ripe, delicious tomatoes. But I can't get to them. So they're gonna rot. What a shame.
Last night I was watching Monday Night Football. I was appalled by Mark Brunell. He looked like the worst quarterback ever. He had the mobility of a snowman. I couldn't bear to watch it and turned off the TV. Apparently Brunell threw two touchdowns in the final four minutes to win the game. How did that happen?
I just stole the new Bobby Bare album from Hicksy. It's incredible. The most bombastic, ridiculous heap of countrypolitan slop I've ever heard.
