Merry Christmas to All

I received some Sprinkles cupcakes for Christmas Eve dessert. They were all Christmas themed cupcakes, which basically meant that they were variations of eggnog, peppermint, and other Christmasey flavas.

The main meal included charcoal grilled New York steak, grilled Louisinana Hotlinks, steamed vegetables, and a nice cabernet. It was a great meal. Oh, and there was a candied apple which was excellent.

Today is an exciting day because I get to watch the Lakers vs. Celtics game...live.

Don't matter if you're black or white

This grainy crap-tacular picture was taken at the NBA store.

The interesting thing about this was that the white guy on the left was kicking the shit out of the black guy on the right in this game. Normally, I wouldn't care and it's not even worth mentioning but the black gentleman was the recipient of constant derision from his friends and the issue of race came up.

His friends were arguing that because the gentleman on the right was 'black', he needed to play basketball well. I felt that this was offensive since it implied that white people can't play basketball and shouldn't play as well as black people.

Actually, I'm not offended and I didn't care. I needed something to write today and this is all I got.
