Chicago Bulls at Minnesota Timberwolves 7:00pm

The Wolves are 3-6 on the season, but its the most exciting 3-6 in franchise history! It seems like they should have more win than 3, but turnovers are killing this team (among other things). This is the last of 3 straight games for the Wolves (Wash, Toronto before) and the Bulls are on the end of back to back roadies. Tired legs should apply for this game.

George Carlin – Saving The Planet

I guess I am the guy who will be bringing the classics this week.  Among the citizens would there be an interest in stretching this out for a two week special? I feel like there are a ton of comedians we should be sharing.
