You have to explain your reasons behind each answer.
Bonus lolz for being specific with certain questions!

Who would you choose to...

1) Go backpacking across Europe with?
Raul Gonzalez- We've already spent a lot of quality time together in a tent, it just feels right.

2) Teach you their language?
Paolo De Ceglie- He has a proper deep guy voice and can start by whispering sweet nothings into my ear!

3) Go on Who Wants To Be A Millionaire with?
Niko Kranjcar- He's a smart cookie and I think we could realy go for the mil!

4) Bake a chocolate carrot cake with?
Fabio Cannavaro- I want to bake a cake all reversa master chef style!

5) Get drunk and sing karaoke with?
Pepe Reina- That way when I sing horribly, I won't be the most memorable part of that performance. Camareroooo!

6) Go on an extreme sports holiday with?
Paolo De Ceglie- Lots of shirtless activity and lots of adrenaline flowing!

7) Raise money for underprivileged kids with?
Iker Casillas- he does it already, I'll just tag along and watch him look pretty.

Bojan Krkic- because it's going to happen! I'm realistic like that.

Cesc Fabregas- We would have the best costumes ever and I know he would wear whatever and look amazing doing so!

12) Have a drunken hook up that you may regret with?
Ruud Van Nistelrooy- He's about the only person I would go there with that I might end up actually regretting later. I'm okay with the harassment that comes along with this answer though.

13) Go ballroom dancing with?
Roque Santa Cruz- He's tall and I just think that he would make an excellent dance partner.

14) Pull off an Ocean's Eleven style heist with?
Kaka- I just want to bring out his BA side. I know it's in there somewhere!

Once again vindicated by science

A study was done with SAT scores and teenagers favorite music. It turns out that all the times I harassed Semisi and told him he listened to stupid music, that I was right. Science is awesome and it once again proves that I listen to at least smarter music than the average. I had a conversation with Sarah once about smart music and I guess this is what we meant, now I know.

Apparently, Lil Wayne fans are amongst the dumbest people around, but I didn't necessarily need a study to make me aware of this. I guess it's important to remember that this is a study of correlation and not causation, but all the same. The "dumbest" bands I listen to would be The All American Rejects and Fall Out Boy I suppose, but for the most part, I listen to pretty smart music.

Take a look for yourself and see how you rate. I took the chart and highlighted all of the artists currently in my iTunes library. The farther left they are, the lower the people who liked them scored on their SAT's.

The chart highlighted with the artists I listen to. (click here for the unvandalized version) You have to click it to embiggen it and make it not so blurry.

Paolo picspam

I've had a downer of a week and decided to surf the web and came across a mecca of pics for Paolo De Ceglie. I had a lot of issues finding proper pictures of him before, but this Italian forum had a ton so I decided to share with you some of my favorites that I found.
(it's called a bra lady)



I also found some really good pics of him when he was a bit younger with the Juve youth level teams. These are great because they also include his teammates of Claudio Marchisio and Sebastien Giovinco.

Jugador de la Semana

Jugador de la Semana this week goes to none other than King Titi! He wins on so many levels right now. He scored two goals, had 1 assist, 3 shots on target, 1 corner won and 1 foul won and yet Barca still managed to lose! This is really the attitude of a team player. This one is for you Thierry Henry and even when you are massive win it still means massive lose for Barcelona. I am indebted to you good sir.

The runner up would definitely be Canna. I know Rossi had an assist and shot on target and Camunas was amazing with goal and assist, but Canna reached a new personal best! He got an amazing 7 puntos. This definitely makes up for the 0 he recieved last week and he is back to being my rock. He kept 1 clean sheet had 1 tackle won and 1 blocked shot. Yay!

As for Heitinga, he finally returned and yet with negative puntos. I can't be too angry with him though seeing as he had a completely valid goal disallowed and -2.5 puntos is a whole lot considering he got booked.

I got a total of 71 puntos which keeps me in a clear 1st place, 124 puntos ahead of the next contender. I am also ranked +91 and in the top 4% of the group "Real Madrid Supporters." #1,311 of 3,2803. :D
