Drew Brees, quarterback for the New Orleans Saints, broke Dan Marino’s single-season yardage record last night. Do I have any idea what this means? Of course not. But apparently it’s a pretty big deal. While those around me have been carrying on about yards, passes and interceptions, I’ve been busy gathering intel on the surprisingly-quite-attractive Mr. Brees. He’s totally crush-worthy and the fact that he has a wife is really only secondary to the fact that I want to do dirty things to him. (Just sayin’.)

If only I had known about Bitterwaitress.com then! It’s a website where waitresses can go to share their customer horror stories and list their crappiest tippers. There is often the odd encounter with a rude celebrity recounted on the website, too, like this run-in with Dan Marino, who, according to the waitress, tried to charge kids for his autographs.
