Ask The Slouch
Q. As a longtime reader, I would be honored if you were to serve as part of my thesis committee. My thesis is titled, "Integrated Risk Assessment and Management for the 2006 Virginia Gubernatorial Inauguration." I think you would bring a lot of experience to the table. (Abhinav Agrawal; Charlottesville)
A. Virginia has a governor?
Q. What struck you most about Kobe Bryant's 81-point night against the Raptors? (Darryl Bell; Elyria, Ohio)
A. If Phil Jackson hadn't taken him out with 4.2 seconds left, I figure Kobe could've gone for 100.
Q. How big of a loser do you have to be to sit home and watch the PBA with its poster child, Pete Weber, parading around like a ballerina on painkillers? No offense. (Barry Josowitz; Pittsburgh)
A. None taken.
Q. A University of Maryland basketball player recently was declared academically ineligible. Isn't that like falling out of a boat and missing the water? (Bryan Satterlee; Albany, N.Y.)
