On second thought

September 5, 2007

A few days ago I had mentioned that we still have up our Christmas lights. At the time I was thinking that we may as well just leave them up – after all it is only about 110 days till Christmas anyways. Besides, why would I want to put my life at risk by getting [...]

If I were a rich man

September 4, 2007

I think it would be mandatory to have steak at least once per month in my house. Tonight I was supposed to roast a chicken for dinner – I had taken it out of the freezer last night but apparently it didn’t have time to thaw for tonight. A bit bummed because I make a [...]

Apology to Sox Fans

August 30, 2007

I should have know better. Because I was not fully aware of my ability to curse the team, I posted just the other day about the Sox gaining ground against the 2nd place Yankees. Now after having been swept in 3 games, the lead that I so proudly proclaimed has been cut by nearly 40%, [...]

Thats what happens when you have kids

It was rather offensive . . . I can’t believe my wife actually put up with it and I certainly would not have gone out in public this way. I badly needed a shower. Thats what happens when you have kids. There are so many things that have to be done for them on a [...]
