# I assume it isn't an homage
One is a fashion victim. One is a wild monkey, great sage, equal of heaven. Born from an egg. On a mountain top.
Granted that you may be unable to readily tell the difference since one has big honking sideburns, but remember: it was the seventies and they were the style at the time.
Next time she annoys me, I am going to try the special chant and see what happens.

# Mandatory Sportsblogging for the Month of August.
While feeding my insatiable hunger for meaningless trivia that I will never forget i I started reading about Barry Bonds, the ‘roid head currently pursuing the last hit he needs to break the homerun record in baseball. Just to be clear, this is something I couldn’t otherwise give two shits about, but ask me about it in seventy years and I’ll not answer because I’ll be dead, but if I was still alive, I’d still be able to laugh at the fans who attended the game with giant syringe and asterix props.
There was one line that caught my attention though.
Thousands of fans chanted a popular phrase questioning Bonds’ ability.
I wonder what exactly is the seppo equivalent of “Bonds is a wanker!” :- )
i The only things I ever forget are the things I need to remember. This is extremely helpful for becoming a two-minute expert in everything, terribly unhelpful in conducting, you know, a life.
