Monday's Missing Links

- This guy made a "masterpiece" out of discarded MetroCards.  I always try to refill my cards because there is always $0.40 left or $1.15 or some odd amount.  A lot of people throw them out, but it's like throwing out money.  This guy must have a lot of time on his hands - and this damn bench will probably fetch a few thousand bucks at an auction.  Somewhere there's some shmuck who wants this piece of avant garde art.

- Here's a cool site helping keep people up to date with the happenings in their respective cities - well, NYC, the Hamptons, San Fran, DC, LA, and Chicago.  There's also a link for national news, which is what the home page is, for those of you in lesser publicized cities.

- Last night's Academy of Country Music Awards were pretty good.  Lindsay loves Carrie Underwood, so we watched her performance - with Steven Tyler.  Pretty cool, especially since I have a new-found appreciation for his music.  His voice is like no other, and it's awesome.  Give it a listen if you didn't see it live.  I was kind of looking forward to Rihanna's performance too, but it was too slow and boring for me to like.  Like I've said before, my musical taste is very diverse.

- Butler vs. UConn tonight for the NCAA Men's Basketball National Championship.  We're going to dinner at 6:30, so we should be home in time to catch a majority of the game.  If we're able to stay up the entire time.  I know, you're probably thinking we're wimps, but I've been told by many people many times that I'd better get my sleep in now because it'll all change shortly.  I like UConn in this one, although I wouldn't be shocked if Butler wins.

- Oh yeah, before I forget, Chris Brown, what the hell is wrong with you man?  Beating a woman up?  Sorry, I know it was a while ago, but still, this is for you dipshit! 

- And one more link about music, Florence and the Machine are awesome!  I bought the album on iTunes and cannot get enough of it.  It's relaxing, which is a nice change of pace when I can't listen to my metal.  Give it a listen, you'll enjoy it.  Plus, there's a remake of a classic, "Addicted to Love", by Robert Palmer.  AWESOME-NESS!!
