Rants and randomness - Monday night edition

• Watched '24' tonight. This season continues to make up for the debacle that was season 6. Favorite line from tonight's show, "if you ever pull a gun on me again, you'd better be prepared to use it."
• Devils won their fourth in a row over Tucson City College in hoops. Great game, although the Devils almost blew it at the end. Big lead during second half evaporated quickly and Tucson eventually took the lead. Devils found a way to win. I've always been told by sportscasters and other industry watchers that "good teams find a way to win." Does that mean the Devils are now officially a "good team" or is Tucson just that bad of a team? I'm inclined to say it's a little of both.
  
• I'm still laughing at this excerpt from Jim Rome's radio show last Friday it's travel tips for Tucson citizens traveling up to Tempe for last night's ASU-Tucson game.
  

• I saw "Slumdog Millionaire" a few weeks ago. I thought it was a good movie, but I just don't get all the hype around it. Personally I liked "The Reader" better, although I was surprised to see Winslet beat out Streep for Best Actress. Also, thought Frank Langella (Frost-Nixon) or Mickey Rourke (The Wrestler) should have won Best Actor.
• I have not talked to anyone who likes the new U2 song "Get on your boots"
• Favorite song in my ipod rotation these days is "Bixby Canyon Bridge" by Death Cab for Cutie
• Band I recently stumbled across that I really like is The Myriad. Check out "Perfect Obligation"
• They had chicken fried steak in our work cafeteria today. I passed.
