Tuesday 5/20 Millings

Millting Points: My Predictions for the NBA Eastern Conference Finals:
  • Celtics in 7. They will be the first NBA champs to never win a road playoff game.
  • Ray Allen will score 20 points in Game 1.
  • Tony Allen will get some playing time and make a bonehead play.
  • If Violet Palmer refs a game in this series, the Celtics will lose that game.
Daily MillStar: The first MillCredit goes to the return of the Daily Millings. We're Back!!! The new format is very quick and witty without giant text blocks...it's much more conducive for putting the "daily" into the Daily Millings.

Daily MillDud: A MillDud goes to the college minister at Citylife Presbyterian Church because it took him a whole semester to talk to Joses and me even though we always sit a row behind him in service. Coincidentally, he noticed us the only week in which there wasn't a Korean guy sitting directly behind him giving him backrubs.

Millustration (A Simile to Scratch your Skull): David Archuletta is like Clay Aiken. Archie will ALSO finish as American Idol runner-up because the girls ALSO think he's really cute..but when his moment of glory fades, people will ALSO wonder if he's gay. The only difference? ...one of them is Mormon and one of them is Invisible.

MillBoard Charts Song of the Day: In honor of Simon Cowell, I've decided to choose "Bleeding Love" as the Song of the Day. HOWEVER, I'm going to choose the Jesse McCartney version over the much more popular (and better) Leona Lewis version! Jesse co-wrote this song with OneRepublic frontman and missionary kid Ryan Tedder. Sure, Jesse sings the song like a wimpy hemophiliac, but still, let's give the man some props.

Milligan (Something I would do over): In 7th grade, I got a detention for doing a series of X-Pac kicks on a kid in gym class. I haven't seen the kid since 8th grade, but boy would I love to apologize to him.

MillBox:
Question: What do you think of my no-hitter last night? ~Jonathan Lester, Boston MA
Miller: It was incredible. You may walk an awful lot of guys, but last night you showed the world that chemotherapy might be a better performance-enhancer than steroids. Kids everywhere should be standing in front of the microwave hoping to put a little bit more zip on their fastball.

Joses Ho's HoBag:
Question: Joses, since you're an expert in romance...how would you approach a beauty queen? ~Pathetic in Providence
Joses: This one's easy. I would go on youtube and watch clips of her pageants...get to know her a bit. That should be enough to get you through a date.

Millage People Shout-out: Mad props to Didier for almost making dreams come true. (See previous item).

I give this blog 2 weeks before you get bored with it and abandon yet another blog. But in the meantime, welcome back to the blogging world!

I disagree. The HObag alone is enough to keep it going.

1. A milldud is an award for something that disappoints...essentially it's synonymous with "Dud." The word, though, is a play off the candy Milk Duds.
2. David Archuleta is so mormon.
3. Okay.
4. I read that book, but the fact that Michael Jackson is portrayed as the boy's hero causes the rest of the book to be suspect at best.
5. BONUC?
