Aw… Man.

Tuesday, January 15th, 2008

I missed Josh Hamilton (my new hero, and the Ranger's new centerfielder) speaking at the Durham Rescue Mission last Sunday. I just read about it in the paper today.

Competition

Sunday, April 29th, 2007

Yesterday was the first time in a while that I've been shoved, cursed at, and verbally threatened (albeit in the third person) in a long time. I just came back from SJC last weekend thinking "Well, maybe rainbow soccer is less intense than St. John's was." I guess I was ...

Miracle at Oxford

Wednesday, January 17th, 2007

Not a great screenplay, or very good acting, but there are lots of (I may be exposing how much I have forgotten) well done crew (i.e. rowing) scenes.

Soccer Game

This is me running from the field like... (I almost said "like a little girl" but there were little girls running circles around me) a big wuss... Crud... It was hot and humid and I played for about 3 minutes... One time I was playing fullback on the opposite side and ...

Reminiscences

Sunday, July 2nd, 2006

Just a few thoughts from my half week in Michigan for LT and MJ's wedding: For those of you that weren't able to be there, it was frickin' awesome. I got to go on a tour of the Ford Rouge Plant. It was very interesting to see all the history in that ...

Good time to be a North Texan

Sunday, November 27th, 2005

The Boys are doing pretty good (they are a saftey, kicker, and linebacker away from being a Superbowl contender), The Stars seem legit(work on that power play), and the Mavs are in the top 3 in the league (quit taking games off). Now if the Rangers can just sign/trade for ...

The internet is an amazing place... I got to see this actually appear on my screen, so I thought I'd pass the opportunity on to you:(Seen in an article on the San Antonio Spurs recent injury woes:)It’s no hex folks. It’s not voodoo or some silly curse. It’s just bad ...

Go Aggies!

Saturday, January 1st, 2005

I'm off to go see the Cotton Bowl. ******Well, I'm back... The game was not much fun to watch. The 12th man showed up, but unfortunately the first 11 didn't for the Aggies. They had more turnovers in this game than the whole season, it seemed. After giving up 3 ...

Thumbs Down for Larry Brown

...Had a good week... I was kinda fasting from Blogs, and stuff... it was refreshing. I am going to be doing a lot less blog reading from now on...My external Hard Drive crashed this weekend, which is why I stopped uploading pictures (I have started again)... It looks like it ...

Sports Report

Wednesday, April 7th, 2004

I am excited... The Mavericks are going to the Playoffs, The Stars begin playoffs against Colorado tomorrow. The Rangers are looking young, and exciting, although they lost their season opener (4-5), they were in it, and it was the A's for heaven's sake. (Kenny Rogers lasted 6 innings for the ...
