The Man Who Was Thursday, G.K. Chesterton

Brilliant, short mystery novel, written by a brilliant, large, well-known author. Though an early 20th century novel, it’s still amazingly relevant. Contains some transcendental passages as well. I believe it’s one of the most recommended works of fiction by Chesterton. I now know why.

The Way Things Should Be: CBS to air all March Madness games online for free

Zatz Not Funny, a general PVR blog with a Tivo bent, reports that CBS will stream every single game of this year’s March Madness tournament. You won’t even suffer from local blackouts. But what will the quality be like? Looks like I won’t have to spend anything on DirecTv’s March Madness pass. Not that I was going to.

Wouldn’t it be ironic if Memphis lost in the first round? Well, it’d be ironic, but I doubt it’ll happen.

Best News Today: DirecTV and the Masters Tournament

directv masters

DirecTV (to which I happily subscribe) will have an interactive, multi-screen presentation of the Masters this year. How providential that this is the same year in which I was afforded the opportunity to go hi-def, widescreen, plasma, and large. I may need to take a 4-day weekend.

After all, it’ll be the start of Tiger’s Grand Slam year.
