sick. ick.

i've been confined to the couch since wednesday with the most horrible, nasty cold. the kind that makes your head feel all wobbly and your eye sockets sore. i've not done much but catch up on movies while sipping tea, as my brain hasn't exactly been at full capacity. <-- div="" hey="" rhymes.="" that="">

that being said, there's not much news to post this week. but it being friday, i thought i'd treat everyone to what they've really been waiting for: a few new ben-isms. i'm going to try my best to put each one into context, but as you know, they tend to be inexplicable. enjoy...

:: while body-surfing in australia, waiting for the right wave, in all seriousness: i'm just like maverick: i can't engage, because i haven't gotten over goose yet.

:: sitting in the car in traffic, going home from work, after a long silence while listening to the radio: i can't wait to be an old man... i'm going to look credible, but i'm going to be an asshole.

:: agreeing with something i said: do you know yepper-depper-do? he's the cousin of gerard depardieu. they're cousins, yet brothers somehow.
