Tulane: 3 – SEC: 0 |
Dad and I went to work for about 11 this morning. The day wasn’t exceptionally busy. Dad and I didn’t get out of the office until about seven. Doc had car trouble that held us up.This evening, Dad and I went to the New Orleans Arena to see Tulane’s basketball team play LSU. Coming into this game, Tulane was 9-4 with two wins versus SEC teams. Both teams played hard, but Tulane wanted it more and beat LSU 68-63, the first win in basketball versus LSU in 26 years. In lieu of posting a detailed account of the game, I’ll defer to the news story on the game.Later this evening I watched David Letterman’s return to television with writers and Conan’s return without.

New Years Day was nice and quiet. Dad cooked his traditional white beans and cabbage rolls. This evening, I watched my one thousandth movie, as indicated by my movie list. The movie was Rhapsody in August, one of Akira Kurosawa’s last movies. It was a good movie, not an incredible masterpiece for the landmark number, but it could have been a lot worse. Number 999 was Rush Hour 3.[edit]After further review and addition to the list, I found out that #1000 was actually I Am Legend.[/edit]

New Years Eve |
This New Years Eve was a rather dull one. I didn’t go out and I didn’t want to go far out of my way to impose my company on anyone. I spent most of the day in front of the computer or TV. I finished watching the second season of The Wire. One of the caster wheels fell off my computer desk this evening and I spent about an hour replacing it. This isn’t the first time it’s happened so I had a couple spares. Maybe next year the December 31st post will be a tad less boring.
