Perhaps I have too much free time

Someone has probably already written it out in some form, but I've discovered a new twist on Parkinson's Law. Parkinson's Law states, "work expands so as to fill the time available for its completion." My variation is a law for the unemployed, "time spent on trivial shit expands so as to fill the time available in a day."

So what has been my most recent time waster? Assembling a nice resource for any Clone in good standing, a written record of every Smack-Off.

The project started out simple enough: 1) I got excited about the upcoming Smack-Off, 2) As I do every year around this time, I listen to my Smack-Off tapes, 3) I wanted to write the top ten rankings out because after enough years memories tend to blur. For example, off the top of your head, what year did Jim in Fall River flog the donkey? It's been a while. The correct answer is 2001, the year Silk took home the Crown.

So my simple idea expanded and like the Constitution, I intend for it to be a living document. It will be updated as time goes on to add more audio and quotes, or whatever else comes to mind.

I hope everyone enjoys it.

I would love a copy of the Smack-off calls that you have. Let me know if I can download them from somewhere. Thanks Man!
