I Got Nothing

Harold Camping is recovering from a stroke, which probably says more about God's wrath than his end of world predictions, the GOP presidential hopefuls are debating tonight, desperately trying to outdo each other on how to let the rich pay less in taxes and make the poor do with less, there're wildfires in Arizona, burst dikes in Missouri, and more earthquakes in New Zealand.

And really, all I can think about is "Can anybody on this team make a free throw?" The Dallas Mavericks are NBA champions, not because LeBron choked and Nowitski finally beat a decade's worth of bad press, but when all is said and done you can't dribble the ball on your foot, miss 40% of your free throws, and beat an NBA team. Any NBA team. Forget the hype about a cosmic battle between stars looking to establish a legacy, make free throws and don't turn the ball over.

Sigh. The truth is I got nothing for you today, but I thought I'd check in and say hi anyhow.
