Icy as all get out. It's been sleeting/icing (sp?) for a few hours and is starting to snow now. The roads, I'm sure, are quite enjoyable. Works off for tonight, though, so I'll be enjoying some Sam Adams Winter Ale and The Office.

Weather = Sucks, Life = Good.

(Except when you went soft on those Daily Doubles Tuesday. I was pissed.) See, to me, that showed he was in total control. Kept his impregnable margin of victory to guarantee a return. Oh, I agree with you -- it was the best move he could make. I just love it when people go for true daily doubles, ...

I caught Monday and Tuesday's episodes from Mexico -- my lady friend and I were cheering like we were watching a Cardinals game, which struck me as kind of weird but definitly cool -- and missed Wed's episode due to travel. Congrat's on your success Ryan, it's pretty damn cool to watch. (Except when...

I would have normally said Thanksgiving, but the more I think about it, the 4th of July (provided it doesn't fall on a Wed and ruin a perfectly good 4 day weekend) is pretty much Thanksgiving, just w/ nicer weather. It's got all the "B's": BBQ, buddies, BS-ing, blowing shit up, beer, boats...

I don't get how he gave up; I showed that his "clutch" numbers were great last year. I don't know what else to say here; tons of people hated Mike Schmidt when he was active. Maybe its just after the fact that people rely on what the player actually did. And for the record, I'll take 9 &q...

AAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 1. A good majority of fans don't get it because they focus solely on their own team with blinders on to the rest of the majors. Drew may look bad to someone who is comparing him to Guerrero or Beltran but if they were forced to watch every...

Emeril's food is decent, but I can't stand the dude. My favorite Food Network show is 'Good Eats' with Alton Brown. I like that he explains they why's. Why you do certain things to achieve a result, why certain things taste good, etc. He actually goes into the science of cooking which is cool. Seco...

Scott Spiezio back w/ the Cardinals for 2 years w/ an option for a 3rd. This all but assures the Cards of having back-to-back-to-back championships, ala Tom Emanski's AAU teams.

Too bad, rest of the league... You had your chance... SUCKERS!

Thanks. I think about changing it every so often, but then I picture Steve Martin running around Hartoonian's gas station with the new phonebook and I forget what in the hell I was thinking about to begin with.

Show up next time you step on the court, Jayhawks. Sorry but I don't get the Kansas love. They get ballyhooed every year and usually bite it in the tourney. Just don't dig Big 12 anything I guess...except the chicks they're hotties. They're a Bill Self "coached" team, so... yeah. That's t...

You can't deny that it could be rather fascinating. But... yeah... if I was related to either Nicolle or Ron, this guy would have had his legs broken years ago.
