Friday I saw Jon Cryer trying to lift a large bag of dog food over his shoulder.
Sunday I saw Kevin "Johnny Drama" Dillon lifting a twelve ouncer to his lips for the morning football games. His Giants won.
Friday night I was having my usual salmon dinner at the Steak Joynt. This waiter who works there is a Raider fan so he's "befriended" DJ and they talk football. I've always thought the guy was a little squirrelly. DJ, having a sense of humor about the Raider's losing season, joked about this guy's predictions for Sunday's game. The waiter then said, "Hey, man, you gotta believe. Think positive. You gotta think positive thoughts, ya know, like Iraq, man. Think positive and positive things happen." I usually leave these guys to their football fodder but my head spun toward him like Linda Blair's and I shrieked, "What positive things are happening in Iraq! Are you kidding?!"
He just stared at me for a second stunned, and I just turned back to my fish, caught the smiling eye of our senior citizen friend who hates everybody and I think DJ broke the ice with the guy with more gridiron gab.
While watching Sunday's Raiders game we envisioned a Raiders for Republicans group and wondered if there is a MySpace page yet.
