Just your everyday graffiti on a C-line window. Hopefully it doesn’t say something super bad. I’m not hip enough to know what tags mean.

Billboard Owners Replace Jennifer Aniston with Evil Egg McMuffin
Talk about your mixed signals.
So I was finally getting used to seeing this on the walk from my office to the gym everyday – and actually found it to be pretty motivating – only to pass by the billboard today and see the lovely McDonald’s ad to your right staring back at me.
What the eff, McDonald’s? If you keep hitting me with this (not so) subliminal advertising, I’m going to start to think that Egg McMuffins are good for me. Next thing you know I’ll be 300 lbs. and yelling for someone to order me a McRib. This is a travesty!
Side Story: my soon-to-be-8-year-old cousin/godson (who I’m assuming reads this blog?) made his mom buy me a bottle of Smartwater to further my quest in getting Jennifer Aniston’s body. This led me to two conclusions: 1) Children read my blog and I should maybe try to make it a little more thought-provoking and educational (yeah, good luck with that). 2) I have not yet reached Aniston-status in the mind of said 8-year old. Gotta get to the gym!

Now the Bromance can Continue
Ok, so this has pretty much been a done deal for months now, but since Northeastern chose to officially announce its basketball coaching staff today, I’m choosing to officially write about it.
Not too many changes to the 2010-2011 coaching roster, except one big one – Pat Duquette, once associate head coach under Al Skinner at Boston College (and interim head coach after Skinner was fired earlier this year), has fatefully rejoined buddy Bill Coen (also of the BC coaching tree, obviously) at NU. Sadly, Duquette is replacing Coach Tom Murphy, one of the greatest guys living on the planet, but Murphy will still be affiliated with the team, in a mentoring/donor-related capacity.
I’m so excited about this I can’t even tell you. I was already planning to become a Husky groupie this year – as they may need me because of a big loss of senior players – but this just solidifies it. And let’s not forget, Steve Scalzi still holds his position of director of basketball operations.
It’s like BC ’06 all over again. Seriously guys – professional head manager, it’s a position that needs to happen…that I need to fill.
Go Northeastern! Lovin’ it.
