Unfinished Business
Still having some problems with publishing the blog, but Jason speculated that my last entry may have timed out because it had too many links, so I'll try publishing one with fewer links. I'd almost said that I would try publishing something "a bit more modest," but then I realized that I was going to express my wonder that I'm currently in second place in my March Madness pool and my even greater surprise that I'm in the top 3% overall on Yahoo. It probably won't last, but given that I watched maybe ten minutes of college basketball all season, I think I'm doing okay.
Update: Still timing out, but comments appear to be working.

I've been a college basketball junkie all season, but that only means that I'm more surprised than most people at Northwestern State beating Iowa. I've also noticed that the more nominated films I see in a year the worse I fare with my predictions. Meanwhile my sister is temporarily winning our family pool, having picked UNC-Wilmington to make the Final Four...

My braket almost crashed and burned last night as I have UCLA in my Final Four, but the Zags did me a big favor and choked big time. I also mnaged to put Wichita State and Georgetown in my Sweet Sixteen. Duke losing doesn't hurt me either, as I only had them going to the Elite Eight.

My two final picks, UCLA and Villanova, are still alive, but just barely. I don't remember a tournament that has had so many nail-biters.

I had 'Nova winning tonight, with Florida beating them to go to the Final Four. We'll see how that goes....

But if UConn gets beat by Washington, my bracket is likely toast.
