DID I SAY THAT? It must be June, since reporters have begun to call the high-profile queers in their Rolodexi and ask "what gay pride month means to you" (or some variant thereof). That's why you'll catch me averring in today's Post-Dispatch that "It is no longer enough just to be gay".

...AND THE RIDE: Woof! Team USA forward Brian McBride has got me thinkin' football been very, very good to me.

MUST SEE J.D.: It appears that NBC has scheduled a little Scrubs mini-marathon Tuesday after next, June 25. If you're not already hip to the funniest sitcom on TV — featuring cutie Zach Braff as a first-year resident and the scrumptious John C. McGinley as his gruff mentor — it'll be a great chance to sample it.

CHALK IT UP: The theme from Simon in the Land of Magic Chalk-Drawings periodically scales the distance of nearly three decades deep in my psyche to get stuck in my head. Here's a small site dedicated to the animated cartoon about a boy whose chalk drawings come to life, which I watched when it aired in the United States as part of Captain Kangaroo. [I nicked the "Simon" link from Boing Boing which you should be reading every single day.]

(WEB)LOG-ROLLING: If you've a mind to discuss matters related to weblogs (tools, practices, history, etc.), there's a new place to do it called Blogroots. It's the companion site to a forthcoming book by Matt Haughey, Meg Hourihan and Paul Bausch.

Also, please go read Merlin Mann's Kung Fu Grippe. It's excellent.
