2003-01-29//11:16 p.m. Kia Ora- -Tim & Neil Finn, It's Only Natural, 1991 I'm all over the place here tonight. First, I want to say that I really feel for Oakland Raiders' center Barret Robbins. He's the player who was 'sent home' before the Super Bowl for missing some mandatory meetings. Apparently, he suffers from some severe bi-polar depression and something set him off before the big game. Now just as an observer it sounds like with all the hoopla leading up to the big game and all the emotion going into it that he had an overload and just couldn't handle it. My heart goes out to the guy--he's at the the verge of reaching the highest plateau of his career and he is siezed by this affliction which renders him unable to see his dreams through. There has been talk that the Raiders and the NFL should make sure he never plays another down of football. FUCK THAT! They have drug rehab programs for all the players hooked on coke and alcohol addictions, shouldn't he have the same opportunities for his disease? More on this as it develops. Onward...I'm watching An Evening With Kevin Smith. It is fucking brilliant. Do you know what really gets me? Kevin motherfucking Smith (I really do admire the man) is about 8 months YOUNGER than I am. *sigh*... And of course, while sitting here watching this I've totally forgotten what I was going to write about. Damn. Heart, -N.
