Its been a week
Ok, so its been a week since I last posted. Thought I would let the dust settle after my last post... yeah... *nods*....
In the category of "I couldnt make this up if I tried..." the nominees are (thanks to News of the Weird for these)
Squirrel Armor
Chinese Crickets Fans
FBI phones disconnected due to unpaid bills
These conjure 3 questions/comments... why? ... are they that bored over there?... morons....
Everything else has been rather quiet the past week, except for the Michigan primaries tomorrow. I think at some point we should go back to the media reporting just the facts, all of the facts, not just the facts that conform to their opinions/views and leave the rest to the opinion columns. But thats probably hoping beyond hope....
In gaming news, my WoW main now has his mount.. only took till level 54 to get it... makes moving around alot faster, and I seem to be recovering gold at a decent rate. Making good progress towards Outlands and 70. My wife has started to play again, and had a bit of a chat in the RP channel. Not sure if she enjoyed it or not, but has been reading up on the game lore.
Last week was Session #3 for Star Wars, which saw a player fatality. Not sure it should even count, wasnt like he had even hit the table yet. His escape pod was coming down, another player with his fingers on the ship cannons asked who the president of the new republic (after Endor) was. Player responds "Palapatine" metal shreds rained down at this point, along with much laughter. "But he was a good guy in the first movie!" was the defense... I really hope by tomorrow night hes watched a movie or 3, maybe 6.... right... hope he brings more blank sheets...

2008 already?
Yeah, ok, I don't know what happened to last week, but lets just say it got away from me, hence the no new post thing *cough* yeah, thats it.
Well, the little one is real close to crawling now. She gets up on her knees, starts to push forward with her legs, but forgets to move her arms, so she winds up with her face in the carpet, butt in the air and then she falls over. Its funny, but am pretty sure shes not fond of it.
In other funny news, move over Tupperware, the coming thing in home consultant sales........... tasers... sometimes I couldnt even begin to make this stuff (CNN story). Theres a funny commercial on TV with this travel show star that they tape the leads of a taser to his boots. He's mouthing off about how its gonna feel like nothing and hes had worse. Then they pull the trigger and hes bent over in pain.
Tonight is the college football "championship game". Right... I can maybe see LSU having a shot at it, but Ohio State? Aint no way they can claim they are the best team in the land. They hardly played anyone, and when they did they either lost (Illinois) or the win just wasnt that impressive. I can see maybe Oklahoma (impressive win against Virginia Tech), Missouri (only lost to OU during the season, dismantled Arkansas in their bowl), Kansas (only lost to a good MO team in the season), Georgia or USC maybe playing for the title, but not Ohio State. Oh well, they havent given me my ballot, well, except for the tv remote. Gonna have to learn the ESPN classics channel though. Watched a bit of the GMAC bowl game last night, and the little one was focused on it, to the exclusion of her mother trying to get her attention. Yeah, I am in so much trouble if her first sentence is "First and ten"....
