Monday 5/26 Memorial Day Millings

Millting Points: Since it's Memorial Day, here is a list of the coolest things with the word "Memorial" in their names.

  1. Peabody Veterans Memorial High School - the high school that produced me.
  2. Leonard P. Zakem Bunker Hill Memorial Bridge - the awesome looking bridge in Boston right next to the TD Banknorth Boston Garden.
  3. Uhhh...that's all.
Daily MillStar: In honor of Memorial Day, today's MillCredit goes to my two favorite military men of all time, "The Chicken Army" ...of General Tso and Colonel Sanders. Did you know that General Tso was a real general? Even so, did you know that Colonel Sanders is probably the most popular military man (and white guy) in China?

Daily MillDud: This MillDud goes to Fung Wah Bus Co. for being stupid. Quiz Question: How does a 4 hour bus ride turn into a 7 hour bus ride? If you answered, "A flat tire and waiting 2 hours on the side of the highway," then ding ding ding you are absolutely correct!

MillBoard Charts Song of the Day: With Jimmy leaving today, the song of the day can only be Flo Rida's "(Shawty Got) Low." Instead of linking you to the Flo Rida music video, I have decided to link you to how we found the song in the first place. We were watching on of Jimmy's favorite shows (the Ellen Degeneres show) and we realized the song was so catchy that we had to start dancing, too.

Milligan: When I was in 6th grade, I participated in backyard wrestling. We would take all the things we learned from watching the WWF on television and use them to fight each other...for real. We did not script the outcomes of the matches. Typically, the matches would end by submission, when someone applied some kind of chokehold that restricted the airways. Looking back on it, I'm surprised we didn't get hurt at all. If I could do it again, I would suggest that we script it all.

MillBox:
Question: If you were on a date with Lisa Loeb, what would you do? ~Lucas Ho, Singapore
Miller: I would take her to a karaoke bar and sing a song to her. I would serenade her with a very poorly sung version of her hit song "Stay (I Missed You)" hoping that butchering her only claim to fame would win me her heart.

Joses Ho's HoBag:
Question: Joses, if you could say something to a very special girl out there what would it be?
Joses (to a very special girl out there): I wish I could have seen you before you had flown off, but I'm happy we got to hang out your last night here.

Jimmy Tull's TuleBag:
Question: Seriously, do you really watch the Ellen DeGeneres Show? ~Ellen DeGeneres, Burbank, California
Jimmy: No I do not "seriously" watch it. I mean we've probably only seen it a couple of times in the last couple of months. So, so I do not seriously watch it. ...Notice that the question didn't ask if I enjoy it.

Millage People Shout-out: I want to give a shout out to Anna Hsu, who is the very first person to shamelessly ask for a Millage People Shout-out.
