Ten things I like about Thursdays
1. For me, they are Fridays (I take Friday off.)
2. Thursday night is 30 Rock night. 30 Rock is the funniest, most underrated show on tv, starring the brilliant Tina Fey. (Have I done 10 things I like Tina Fey yet? Maybe that's next.)
3. At work, I try to make Thursday, "encourage the congregation day." I send letters and make phone calls. It feels good to do that, and it goes a long way in terms of building up the community, too.
4. There's a new Artvoice on Thursdays.
5. Often @janelle and I grab a beer and/or some wings on Thursday night, and I always like spending time with her (not to mention beer and wings!)
6. Janelle has a standing commitment early on Thursday evening, so in addition to quality time WITH her, I get a little bit of time to be alone.
7. Thursday in the square. Is tonight the Dropkick Murphy's? I may have to be there.
8. Thursdays are relatively chore-free. I knock out a lot of work on Friday, so I tend to chill on Thursday.
9. If this Thursday is a representative sample, Thursday is an active estrip day.
10. Thursday is named after Thor, who's hammer got referenced in the comments of @janelle's post. Maybe today is the day that we can finally grab his hammer. "What would we do with it anyway?" you ask? Well, "if I had a hammer, I'd hammer in the morning, I'd hammer in evening, all over this land. I'd hammer out freedom. I'd hammer out justice, all over this land."
Why do we need a hammer for justice? Is it for the toes of filibustering senators (see @dcoffee )? I guess I never got that song. Maybe I will when I get a hammer. Please hammer, don't hurt 'em.

Did you ever watch Studio 66(or whatever) on the Sunset strip? It was the same people who did West Wing but centered around a comedy show, like 30 Rock. So good. So under-rated. So canceled.
Thor's hammer is for smashing in the skulls of giants. The Peter, Paul, and Mary's hammer was for smashing down capitalism I think. Hence the USSR's emblem of a hammer and sickle (the sickle was for more less smashable bits of fillibusters.)
