News, but not the serious kind
There’s something about basketball?
Thanks for giving me an emergency session today, Doc. I think I’ve totally lost it!
You know, since I moved to LA, I’m imagining I see movie characters EVERYWHERE! It’s not funny!
I went to a Lakers game last night. All of a sudden, there’s somebody yelling at the ref, and it’s that NUTJOB from “The Shining.” You know, “Heeere’s Johnny!” I’m not making this up.
And it gets worse, Doc. A ball went out of bounds and a fan gets it, and it’s MARY, from “There’s Something About Mary. Is that totally whack, or what?
So anyway, who can resist her? That’s what the movie is about, right? So I go on down to where she’s sitting, and I say, “So, you like the Lakers?”
And she looks at me with these sparkling blue eyes and says, “What’d I tell you the first time we met? I’m a Niners fan.”
Then I woke up, Doc. What’s it all mean?

Did you have any foreign substance on your ear when you woke up? (think about it)
I vote Cameron Diaz replace the long haired diva on the Lakers, Sasha Vujacic, at least Diaz knows what’s goin on during the game!
And minnow knows Diaz knows what’s going on during the game because it’s clearly demonstrated by her flawless skin and sexy smile and looong legs that go from here to never?
exactly.
