This is what happens when your school doesn't have football. Rubie's writing about the Olympics? Yep, we've truly hit the Dead Zone. Todd Mayo's been suspended? Yawn. Pro-Am time? Is Gardner still launching 3s against clearly inferior opponents? Yawn. Wake me up when it's October and the non-conference games start. OK, Buzz's BBQ was a great time as always. I ate far more than my $10 worth.

Friday I got to hang with Fun. for 5 minutes, and then on Saturday some dude from True Blood. My Summerfest freelance job does not suck. Note the comments on the Fun. photo: one is from mynameisjohnmichael. His horn section has played with Fun. before. He's the musician I linked to last week who said D-Wade has soul. So if you like Fun. or D-Wade, go download his 5 song EP for $3 (or get 2 songs for free, your choice)
