I feel I should blog by proxy for Eric, since two majorly Supa pieces of information are in the air today, and he’s out of town (and is using that as a lame excuse not to post).

Item 1: Houston Rockets are up 2-0 in their series against the Dallas Mavericks. Yao Ming, a man I once presciently described as “the second coming of Big Country,” scored 33 points in the second victory.

Item 2: Ferrari is preparing a new, cheap–well, cheaper car, tentatively called the California. US$150,000, and the engine is a front-mounted 400-hp V8. Sounds like the second coming of the Ferrari Daytona.

That is all.
