I had a nightmare about insects infesting the house last night. It wasn't quite Arachnophobia—still & always an absolutely terrifying motion picture—but the queen bug was substantially bigger than anything in my personal experience, which is itself a blessing for which I am most thankful. I fought the infestation—which was associated with significant structural damage even though most of the bugs were ants, not termites—with chemicals in spray cans, but now that I reflect back on it I wish my dream-self had thought to swing a shovel. It might not have been terrible effective, but the violence of the act would have been tremendously reassuring. It was an honest-to-Phobetor nightmare.
The Rebel Black Dot Song of the Day
Brother Bones & His Shadows, "Sweet Georgia Brown" via iTunes (T.L.A.M.)
Commentary: "Sweet Georgia Brown" is widely recognized as the theme song of the Harlem Globetrotters. As such, methinks it a serviceable theme song for all of basketball, & it was in this vein that it was chosen as the R.B.D.S.O.T.D. on the (real) opening day of the N.C.A.A. Division I Men's Basketball Championship, A.K.A. "March Madness." I hope that your circumstances permit you to watch this orgy of basketball 'til your eyes bleed. Comes the Madness!
