Okay, here's something funny for you. My wife can't stop talking about the things her and the designer have picked out for Paul Magers house that I just bought. Curtains, blah, blah, blah, sage brush, blah, blah, granite something, whatever. It can get on my nerves, especially after an entire day of meetings. The last thing I want is a meeting with my wife about decorating. But that's not what's funny.
I left the house to grab a beer at the OC with some friends of mine and while we were drinking, some guy came up to us and asked me if I was related to Kevin McHale because I looked like him!
Here's what Kevin McHale looks like, sitting next to Bird:
Can you believe that? Jeff told that guy that he could see what he meant, but McHale is way taller than I am. I mean, come on. I told him that I was the publisher of the Star Tribune and he sounded pretty impressed. He also bought my next Amstel Light for my trouble. If I see McHale at an event, I'm going to tell him that story. He'll love it.

I'm a big fan of the Double Deckaroni. How far along are you in your World Beer Tour?
I always thought Par looked more like Ted Danson. Or Boris Karloff.
I just had a little lunch with Kevin McHale. Old-times talk, you know -- from back in the days when we used to work out together. I told him your story, Par. He didn't think it was funny at all. But he did say he thought you were a real up-and-comer, a kid with real promise (Kevin is a keen judge of talent), and he said there might be a spot for you with the Wolves -- you know, after the trial.
Par, I think you look like the Geico cavemen. In a good way. You're taller than them, right? Maybe you *do* have a chance with the 'Wolves ...
