hey! teacher! leave those kids alone

There’s this old Seinfeld episode that features George having a "man crush" on one of Elaine’s boyfriends.  Not a romantic sort of crush – he just thinks this guy is really cool and wants to be around him and hang out with him all the time.  He even gets jealous when Kramer starts spending time with him.  It’s been a while since I’ve compiled a list, so here’s a list of my celebrity man crushes (laugh if you will, I’m secure with my heterosexuality):

1.  Sting
2.  Bill Murray
3.  George Clooney
4.  Jack Black
5.  Vince Vaughn
6.  Ben Folds

School starts tomorrow.  25 little knuckleheads impatiently waiting to be entertained and educated.  I guess it’s time to earning those paychecks they’ve been sending me all summer.

With the baby coming, we’ve started looking into buying a new minivan.  I went over to the home of a friend of mine to see the new van that she bought last week, and noticed that the window sticker was still on it – you know, the one that lists all of the car’s features and the MSRP.  I notice a lot of people driving their new cars in this fashion.  My guess is that people want everyone to know that they have a new vehicle and/or how much the car costs.  Pretty silly if you ask me.  You don’t see people walking around with tags on their new jeans, do you?

Actually, it’s all the rage nowadays to do just that. Well, leaving the tags on their shoes and baseball hats. (Mostly rappers and people who admire rappers, I’ve noticed.) I saw a couple of guys walking around with tags hanging from everywhere at IHOP one night. I wanted ever-so-much to inform them that they’d forgotten to take them off, but didn’t think they would find it as amusing.

Re: Haha… I told my mom to stop sending me that junk a while back, then I felt bad, but she didn’t stop sending it anyway, so maybe she didn’t even hear me.
