Happy Thursday, Spursland! We have had a pretty good run lately, haven't we?
Oh, pipe down about that game against those nobodies. You know what I mean. We had a summer where we finally got EVERYTHING we wanted, and some things we didn't even dare to dream about (hi Chris Eriksen). But we should be careful not to fly too close to the sun like poor Icarus. In the interest of bringing us all back down to earth, I'd like to remind us all that we live in a world where people start "branding" their children as infants and take it seriously.

I can take everything else, but the cabbies is over the line. Keep in mind I used to regularly, like everyday, commute two hours each way through DC traffic. That is how much I fear the power of the cabbies. I've heard some epic stories about cabbies and farmers and teamsters in France clogging up Parisian traffic in protest of stuff, and traffic jams are a kick in the balls.
