Interesting story – Miami-Dade community college‘s chess team in the Final Four of collegiate chess – having already beaten Yale, Harvard, Dartmouth, etc… Cool. Actually, I had no idea that there was a Final Four for chess. Man, talk about March Madness there.

As for NCAA March Madness – three of my Final Four are still intact. Of the my Sweet 16 so far (well, of those that made it to Sweet 16 anyway) – Tennessee is out; Ohio State beat them. I guess this is the year for teams ranked number 1? Not to mention that Tennessee alumnus, Peyton Manning (the QB who won the Super Bowl this year) can now focus on doing his shtick for Saturday Night Live this weekend without worrying about his school’s team.

NY Times’ Holland Carter on Asia Week.

Best wishes to Elizabeth Edwards; not yet sure where I am in terms of deciding the presidential picks (way, way too early – seriously, I just can’t get into it, except as viewing it as a spectator sport that’s just nuts; plus are we pushing Super Duper Super Tuesday – what used to be just Primary Day for a few states – into Election Day proper?) – I do think candidate John Edwards is in a tough spot, at the personal level anyway.

I am behind on watching tv again. Aargh. Maybe I should take up watching tv on the internet. According to TV Guide tv blogs, “Ugly Betty” and “Scrubs” had great episodes Thursday night.
