life supplies you with funny moment after funny moment if you're not too depressed or self-absorbed to notice them. like the artist m.i.a. showing up to a nyc show 3 1/2 hours late (okay only funny because i wasn't there).
or this. looking to get fit in a manner slightly more mindless than picking up large hunks of metal and then moving them until pain ensues, my brother put together a co-ed soccer team for a 7x7 league in la. friends from work etc., all of whom had played either varsity soccer in high school or some form of college ball. apparently, they joined the wrong league, something that became crystal clear after losing 11-1 against a team comprised entirely of former division 1 soccer players from loyola marymount. and the kicker, they played in the league last year and only had a .500 record.
and to make this even better, eric wynalda -- the U.S. national team's all-time leading scorer -- had his team playing just a couple of fields away. apparently, former u.s. national lori fair also participates.
sure it's just for fun, but losing sucks, even when does it mean anything. hehe.
