Distracting distractions distract me...

As I’ve begun to make the semi-awkward transition into this whole “blogosphere,” I’ve noticed a variety of topics and stories throughout different blogs. I’ve also noticed that I spend an inordinate amount of time searching through, reading, and commenting on these blogs. Which led me to ponder just how much time I spend on them…or more specifically, how much time I waste reading them when I should be doing other “important” things.

After careful consideration, I realized blogging isn’t the only hindrance to my eventual achievement of life goals. Many other distractions (I actually wasted even more time on this blog by spending half an hour searching for a clip of Gordon Bombay’s moving speech in D2: The Mighty Ducks when he takes the “distraction” of his cardboard cutout and burns it in a fire-in-a-barrel…but to no avail) have taken their toll on my success as a human being, and I figured it would be best to examine them and see if anyone else struggles with these same obstacles.

I’m going to do a series of three sets of three distractions, with the final, number one distraction receiving its own individual blog post. Genius, and unique. Or maybe just genius. Since I’m going out of town for two days, you’ll be in full suspense for about 48 hrs, but get ready to have your socks rocked off when I’m back in SFSD.

Let’s flip the track, bring the old school back.

I'm wondering what the deal is with Jack Black. He does the really "stupid comedy" stuff, but then he also does the "intellectual comedy" stuff. Is he confused? Or a genius? (Or making up for his extremely tiny stature?)

I'll be honest, I think he's a confused genius. Unfortunately, I think he's got one of those personalities that comes in fresh and then plays itself out in a few short years... as he's demonstrated in the last few short years. Alas, they can't all be priceless like George Burns.
