Have you noticed how our passions determine what we do and how we respond. Spurs’ fans will react violently to when talking about the Mavericks. Mavs’ fans (me) will get upset when others talk trash about the Mavs. Rockets’ fans react with general indifference and hatred that the NBA even has playoffs without them. Astros’ [...]
I went riding with Brad today and in spite of the burning in my legs (causes by not riding in a few weeks), I thought it would be a good ride… Except one hill gone awry. Brad rode down a valley and up a hill in the middle and down the other side. I couldn’t [...]
Have you ever eaten so much that you got sick from it? Have you ever eaten something so often that you got sick of eating it? Have you ever heard a joke so many times that it no longer was funny? Have you ever done something for so long that you hated doing it? It [...]
Did anyone see this picture of the two American Idol finalists? It reminds me of an embrace between a father and his daughter.

The other team got hot and stole the win. 3. The other team got lucky. 1. The refs never decide a game/series. a. You may rebut–but [...]
At approximately 3:15pm this afternoon, my laptop had a massive stroke. It’s death was fast and painless, but watching it croak was like watching hours of my life twirl down the toilet. It seems as though the power supply felt strikingly close to a french fry, and it decided to fry my notebook. Instantly. So [...]
I fired up the grill this evening to prepare a little grilled chicken for dinner. Little did I know what would transpire (start creepy music). I dropped the chicken on the grill, went back inside for a bit, only to be greeted by a strange sound; curious as to what this sound was, I decided [...]
