I live in a silly place

The local rec-center is offering a class in: Stand Up Paddle Board Yoga


How did we get here?

The madness has made it to NC, also. These folks had an audience at the waterfront shops. Someone would fall in every couple minutes. But I imagine it's great for the core/balance.

Littleman, I'm confused.

You're finding that silly when you live in a place where you can bring your dog to Flying Doga, AKA dog-friendly yoga trapeze class?

Get with the times! You've fallen way behind on what counts as silly in San Francisco.

But then again, people all over America, especially in the South, gather every Saturday in the fall for Secular Sabbath and bow down to worship 11 heroic students who dress in body armor, line up across from 11 students (using the term loosely of course) from some bad, evil place and watch them crash into each other  according to a convoluted set of rules while trying to move a small ball that doesn't even roll straight. And they pay a man $11,000,000 per year to make sure they move the ball farther than the other 11 students (recent salary of the head coach at Alabama).

Now THAT is silly.

Yeah, I bet it is.  Still...

Some people just have too much money.

I can't really deconstruct why amateur football grabs so much money, though I am sure it's wrapped up in tribalism.

Maybe they're all college football coaches.
