Why doesn't my pandering work?
Why do the leaves change colors with the seasons?
How come everyone else knew that "the 11 o'clock meeting starts at 11:15?" Why don't we call it the 11:15 meeting then?
Why are the fourth and fifth floors X'ed out in the elevator and why do they have "Restricted" signs in the staircase?
But this much I know:
Do I particularly care about the South Africa and Uruguay? Not really. (though I do remember that Uruguay's capital is Montevideo) Then again, was I committed to Portugal and Ivory Coast? No. Did it matter to me that Roger Federer did not make it to the French Open finals? No. I barely knew what was going on. But do all these things help me stay awake during the work day? Yes, absolutely, yes. Thank you, Sports, for your wonderful array of story lines I can pretend to care about every day.
