I Can Get Behind This

Labor unions in the Czech Republic are demanding concessions for store clerks who have to listen to constant Christmas music through all of December. $19 or two days off? Sounds good to me, after surviving these last few days. I'll take it a step further: any store playing that Paul McCartney Christmas song ("Wonderful Christmas time!", repeat 575 times) should be shut down by the EPA.

Speaking of Czechs, and apropos of very little...here's something I put together for all you Celtics fans.

At least with Jiri the Celtics have something to show for the Antoine Walker trade.

They have vitually nothing to show for the 3 1st round draft picks a couple of years ago of Joe Johnson, Kedrick Brown (the biggest waste of a first round pick by any NBA team since Portland drafted Sam Bowie #2 or Portland drafted Larue Martin #1), and Joseph Forte.

so here's what happened. and what always happens when someone mentions a song. i think, do i know that song? what does that song sound like?
so, while i feel sympathetic to you and your peers for the dismal task of WORKING for HOURS while terrible xmas songs play again and again, i am now saddled with that hateful and shooting-spree inducing paul mccartney song pumping through my mind.
that's almost as rewarding as about 19 extra bucks, yeah?
what an awful song.
