For the second time in less than 2 weeks, Illinois and North Carolina both made it to the Final Four, and North Carolina came in 1st. Except this time, instead of the NCAA Men's Basketball Tournament, it was the Miss USA competition. Same difference I guess. We all thought the Illini were the "team of destiny" this year, but looks like North Carolina was the "state of destiny" all along. Those a-holes.

Speaking of pageants, I read this story in the news last week about some lady who won a pageant for the disabled, but was later disqualified because she wasn't "disabled enough". Apparently she was seen walking without a wheelchair and someone decided to strip her of her title. Even though she had muscular dystrophy, could only walk for short distances occasionally, and had a heavy limp when she did walk. The runner up refused to accept the title out of protest on behalf of that lady. What a messed up story.

Thanks to recommendations from Rich and also da Goods, I bitTorrenttified myself some episodes of South Park and The Office. I didn't know how fast those guys who make South Park can pump out an episode, they already had one making fun of the Terri Schiavo stuff that was going on in the news the past few weeks. As for The Office, some people told me it was hilarious so I decided to watch a couple episodes. It was pretty funny, everytime I see the boss, I think of when he played the retarded guy in Anchorman.

(By the way Anuj if you need help setting up bitTorrent call me or email me. I *might* be able to help.)

Monday was the first time I have seen the show "Stump the Schwab" on ESPN. Couldn't believe how much that guy knows about sports trivia. I don't think I could ever do what he does, even if I spent all day every day watching games, catching every showing of Sportscenter, and studying sports almanacs. Either way, it's fun watching him dominate all the contestants and make them look silly.
