I am a little stuck with my writing at the moment. While iI like to use the excuse that I have begun a new teaching job as the reason for my procrastination, the truth is that I will do anything to avoid the page.
I will shovel. 
Chop up the ice on the driveway. 
Do the dishes.
Burn the garbage. 
Sweep out the ant. 
I will even watch Mitt Romney iron his sleeve. (A ridiculous film by the way.)
Anything to avoid opening that document.
Americans have hyped the Sochi Olympics with anti-glee, reveling in every problem with tweets and drivel. 
While they have perhaps begun to tone down their ritualistic vitriol for the opening ceremonies, they can’t let go of old prejudices.
Promised NBC commentators Lauer, Viera and Remnick,during the opening ceremonies, “The Russian revolution coming up after this commercial break…”
“The revolution is probably the touchiest period in Russian history,” they continued. “The turmoil in Soviet society, without ever mentioning the word Lenin.”
“They are proud of Ladas here,” they moved on. “Unfortunately they became a punchline for the rest of the world.”
“This is Vladimir Putin’s Russia,” they concluded. “And he is insisting that we look at the political power of Russia tonight.”
Look out. Here come the ballet dancers.
Lots of people busk in the New York subway, but there is no show like this. 
Love Portal is comprised of three guys who dance crazily, bouncing off each other and the walls, in this instance to Steppenwolf’s Born to Be Wild. 
I have no idea what any of it meant, and I don’t think they were too clear about that either. 
Said the guy with pantyhose over his face to the guy in the body-stocking after it was over, “What’s your name again?”
I went to see Bernardo at The Rock Shop on Friday. The show was awesome.
However I was in the back – where the sound is best – and had a couple of people talking in front of me, talking non-stop, their backs to the music. Normally I would tell them to shut up or move, but I am trying to better, kinder version of myself and so employed a different method. I used the flash on my phone. 
And it worked, sort of; they hated it – ducking and turning away and stopped for a moment. 
But then, after I had done it twice, they went back to talking. 
The show still rocked.
There will be weather. There will be traffic too. 
After all the hype, it will remain a football game. 
The ads, like their products, will disappoint. 
The halftime show will disappoint.
Broncos will romp and Manning will go to Disney World.
