Amortize What?

Weddingpalooza continues this weekend, as I have Diddy's bachelor party to attend. One interesting factor about this whole social event is that there's a softball tournament smack in the middle of it. It just makes sense: get a bunch of guys together, get them boozed up, and then give them bats and projectiles.

This is not just any softball tournament, though. It's a softball tournament for CPAs. This means that when we lose, we have absolutely no excuse. It's one thing for me to strike out and look like an idiot; I'm familiar with that kind of humiliation. It's another thing entirely for me to strike out, look like an idiot, and then hear the entire other team shout in unison "Amortize that!" In the unlikely event that we do win, an audit is pretty much a sure thing.

In off-topic news, It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia starts its new season tonight; if you get FX, you should watch this show. The new Calexico album is excellent and I recommend it to all, unless we happen to be enemies in which case I recommend the entire Dashboard Confessional catalog, played in a loop forever.

Finally, if you're in Texas, I encourage you to contribute in some way to a food bank or any other organization that could help out the victims of Hurricane Ike. Things sound pretty bleak down in SE Texas, so anything helps.
