The Lady Next to Me Wouldn’t Shut Up!

Monday, November 28th, 2005

I haven’t put up a good gym story in a while, so I figured that I might as well put one up now.
So there I am, sitting on the bench doing some dumbell presses…minding my own business, hanging out, doing my thing. Right? Right.
And all of a sudden I hear a Tourettes-like burst […]

Black Friday 2005 Review

Saturday, November 26th, 2005

There was a lot of good and bad things that happened yesterday - let’s review!
The worst part of the day were the lines at Circuit City. Someone at Circuit City has got to get their act together and NOT have a bunch of high school teenage girls running all five registers in the place. […]

Somebody Made Good Time Driving Home…

Saturday, November 26th, 2005

I just thought that I’d put this little bit up here…
I made FANTASTIC time driving up to my parent’s house on Wednesday. It’s usually an hour and a half drive from door to door, but I was ready to wait in some ridiculous traffic. Not so - I made it home in like […]

Happy Thanksgiving!

Thursday, November 24th, 2005

It’s Turkey Day! Just got back from watching my older and younger brothers play some backyard football with some of the guys. I got pictures - might put them up somewhere soon.
Today is easily one of the best holidays of the year for so many reasons. First, you have the plethora of […]

Thanksgiving Eve Bar Night

Thursday, November 24th, 2005

I usually never go to the bar on Thanksgiving Eve, but I figured what the hell this year.
Well, didn’t work out so well!
First, a group of my friends wound up going to a nearby town for one of my buddy’s birthdays, but honestly I’m a little too tired for a trip to another town and […]

Why I didn’t Give Money to Katrina Charities

Sunday, November 20th, 2005

This is exactly what I knew would happen when you let the federal government and the American Red Cross hand out “disaster relief” funds to those in the Katrina area.
It’s disgusting and someone needs to start a Congressional investigation on how to recoup this $62 million right now.

Back Up On The Lottery, Baby!

Thursday, November 17th, 2005

Some of you may have noticed on my righthand sidebar that I’m back up on the lottery! That’s right - the other day I bought two or three tickets and after a little bit of scratching off and looking around, turns out that I won $29!
I win, the lottery loses. They need to […]

Anyone Else Bothered By The Weather?

Wednesday, November 16th, 2005

Just a quick comment here…is anyone else pissed off that on November’s halfway day (the 16th), we’re experiencing beautiful spring-like weather? Come on! It’s friggin November 16th already! Give us so damn snow!
Maybe just one flake. Or maybe just a quick dusting or covering would be fine. But nothing? […]

Willy Wonka vs. Charlie

Tuesday, November 15th, 2005

I bought Charlie and the Chocolate Factory the other day (not to be confused with Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory, the movie Gene Wilder made famous). I liked this movie! I remember watching it in the theatres over the summer and hearing everyone bemoan it as a waste of time, space, effort, […]

The Eddie Guerrero Tragedy

Tuesday, November 15th, 2005

What a shame.
Current WWE superstar and former WWE Champion, Eddie Guerrero was found dead in his hotel room Sunday morning. There was no clear cause of death and foul play did not seem to be involved. Eddie was 38 and left behind a wife and three children.
Eddie, as many wrestling fans know, battled […]

Roxbury Football Rolls Into the Top Four

Saturday, November 12th, 2005

I got back a little while ago from watching my younger brother play some state sectional playoff football in Ridgewood. He’s one of the captains of the Roxbury football team and he and his teammates did a good job in upsetting two-time defending Section 1, Group IV champions, Ridgewood.
As far as reflections on the […]

President Bush Takes On Critics of Iraq War

Saturday, November 12th, 2005

Preisdent Bush Takes On Critics of Iraq War
Well this is an interesting article, huh? Due to my hectic schedule, I wasn’t able to watch this speech or to really see any of the talking heads on television talk about this, but I would agree that there is some type of historical revision going on […]
