The Moms head over to the Comcastle early in the a.m. to catch the red hot Lady Terps in first-round action against Navy in the women's tournament. Maybe we'll do some b-ball posting over the weekend, on a machine that's really built for blogging. (Full disclosure: This post was drafted on the iPad but finished on the computer, because Moose couldn't figure out how to embed links or upload photos to Blogger on her fancy new

Not bad for a stale shamrock cookie from the co-op, eh? Remember, Goose is only half Irish-ish, so we don't really celebrate. If you do, we hope you have a swell, safe time. Peace out, my little leprechauns, and don't cry if your brackets are busted. Everybody's are, but all that matters is Duke is out (of the non-lady tournament), which means all is half-right in the world. We'll see what happens to the Blue Devils in the women's tournament, though we have a hard time seeing them get past Stanford in the Elite 8. Just remember House Rule #1 of Roxie's World, sports fans: We hate Duke so much that if Duke were playing the Taliban, we would root for the Taliban. Therefore, any team playing Duke is known as the Taliban, and we sit on the couch screaming, "Go, Taliban, go!"
Got it? Go forth and cheer.
For some reason you only get an HTML screen on iPad, although there is a WordPress app that may allow WP folks full blogging privileges.
ReplyDeleteSee you in the final four, Terps.
Thanks for verifying that, TR. My typist thought perhaps she was missing something -- like, you know, even the most minimal sense off How Thigns Work. Not being able to upload a photo was a real deal-breaker, though. We won't be using this tool for blogging.
DeleteAnd perhaps we shall meet up in the final four this year, Huskie Gal. We got some serious game this season. Here's hoping the upsets are all on the men's side, though! Except for Duke of course.
Ooh! Bring it to the game so I can be jealous and my human operator can dream about what she will purchase when she has the the coveted essential research funds.
ReplyDeleteNo way, Jules! My typist could not manage the iPad and her sign, and you know Fear the Brenda takes precedence over Love the Tech Tools during tournament. She will have her trusty phone in her back pocket for documenting the fun and for emergency trash texting of course, but you'll have to come by the house to meet the new toy/tool.
DeleteGood ol apple has prevented iPad owners from browsing the file structure, which is why you can't upload photos. There is a blogger app for iPhone, which you can use on the iPad, it will just be a smaller screen, but it does allow you to upload pictures.
ReplyDeleteAh, brilliant! Thank you, Queerio. We'll give that a try sometime. Crowd sourcing triumphs again.
ReplyDeleteI have three brackets, and in two of them my championship teams is already fucken out. In my other bracket, I've got Kentucky to win, just like over half the motherfucken pool I'm in.
ReplyDeleteThis is why we don't do brackets, CPP. They always get busted. We just root for Maryland and against Duke, with occasional spurts of support in the direction of Texas or Indiana, out of a sense of filial duty. Oh, and the Rutgers women, for sentimental reasons.
