Congratulations to whoever’s behind the keyboard at 216.192.91.26, a.k.a. as.wcom.net. At 8:32 p.m. last night, he or she became the 1,000th unique visitor to crabwalk.com. And to think, only about 873 of those are me hitting reload.
Football today wasn’t pretty at all. Just one lonely TD (although another one, off a pickoff, did get called back on a crappy call). A few nice defensive plays, including a key fourth-down goal line-stand deflection, but nothing to write home about. Not the way I wanted to enter my three-week Japanese layoff from the sport.
Saw Mulholland Drive last night with my friend Natacha — odd movie. (Somehow, I’d never seen a David Lynch film before, so I’m happy to have that gap in my cultural resume filled.) If anyone has any theories about what it all meant — in particular the cowboy and the inch-tall old people — please forward them along. My favorite scene, early on in the movie, featured the truly great Dan Hedaya, the former Nick Tortelli of Cheers fame.
Finally, I had another story in today’s paper.
