A few weeks ago I went to a notable Vietnamese restaurant in town and got the following in my fortune cookie:

The color red will be important to you.

I don't think they're really trying anymore.

As you can see, the softball team won easily again this week 11-1, setting us up for a championship game clash against either our arch-nemeses the fratty Beta team or some team called Hardball. I am, of course, rooting for Beta to win so that we have a Yankees-Red Sox-esque rematch with them and a chance to avenge our loss last year. The game will be at 9:00 PM on the IM field on Forsyth this coming Thursday.

And finally, we have an early nominee for worst lyrics of the year. The song Fortune Faded by the Red Hot Chili Peppers most likely contains (lyrics sites were split over the actual words) the following gem:

They say in chess you've got to kill the queen and then you mate it
Oh I, do you?
A funny thing, the king who gets himself assassinated
Hey now, every time I lose
Attitude

As much as I care about lead singer Anthony Kiedis' proficiency at chess, this is just terrible.
