Jim Broadbent to Play Slughorn In Potter 6!



Hooray!

Tucker's Vacation -- A Photo Retrospective

Our vacation was great and I have been remiss about writing about some of the awesome adventures we had.

Tucker came with us on our vacation and he had an awesome time.

He ran and ate and slept and ran and ran and ran.

It was dog heaven for Tucker.

I have shown a picture of him when he returned looking all dead and the likes, but here are some of his best memories.

I know this... because he told me so.

On most mornings, Tucker and I would sit on the lake watching the sun rise. Tangentwoman snuck up on us and took this picture.



Earlier in the week, I had caught my first fish and I showed it to Tucker. This was him smelling the Yellow Perch. He had NO IDEA what to make of the flopping fish. The fish eventually flopped its way off the hook and back into the lake making Tucker hide under a chair.




Tucker was hanging out ... and I must have been offering him some evil string cheese or something for him to pose like this!



I love this... he is so freaky shaped that when he sits... his little feet and legs do all sorts of wierd crossings and stuff to create this.





Ahhh... I miss those days.

GAGNE!!!! GAGNE!!!! GAGNE!!!!!

String Cheese Stresses Me Out


Here's a surprise for you.

String cheese... stresses me the F out.

I can't deal with it.

I hate eating it and ... for the love of everything that is good and holy... I love cheese...

I think that if you were to take a cross section of my body, you would find a layer of cheese somewhere in my person.

When I was in Maine, our vacation partners offered me some string cheese and I looked at it with dread.

I didn't tell them, but I was scared of the package.

I took it anyway...because... afterall, it was cheese!

I took it downstairs and timidly opened the package.

The smell of glorious cheese filled the air and I felt my stomach tighten up in excitement.

Then... my big nubby fingers ruined it all and tried to pull the cheese apart.

"CRAP!" I exclaimed. "I hate my stupid fingers."

I couldn't get it to peel and all of my old deep seeded hatred for string cheese came to the forefront.

Three minutes later after holding my breath longer than David Blaine's peasant attempts in a recent special, I bit the top off of it and gave up.

Too much stress... just too much stress.

Brett Somers Died....

...this makes Smelmooo ________











SAD!

Happy Birfday M

Yeah.... I didn't know.

Stupid Raiders



Seabass is showing you exactly how I feel about being a Raiders fan.

Damn you NFL gods... Damn you all...

Rutgers Accomplishes Something Neat

Yeah... Norfolk State and Rutgers had no business playing each other even though it was scheduled before Rutgers was good.

Yeah... Rutgers' third string was scoring touchdowns... but this is pretty neat...

It's from the AP.

"The six-touchdown avalanche produced 277 yards in just 11 plays and 91 seconds. The scoring drives covered 52, 28, 92, 46, 42 and 53 yards and lasted two, one, two, two, three and two plays."

That... was a description of... the second quarter.

The Norfolk State coach was understandably upset... but hey... their band was f*cking awesome at half time.

F*cking awesome.

Rutgers -- Screwing Up a Good Thing



Crap... I am currently on a trip in Washington, DC (Staying in Arlington at a new and really good hotel even though it is a Clarion).

Rutgers is having a kick ass year... again... and all people can do is point out the behavior of 30 people towards Navy.

Geez... just leave me alone.

On a more positive note... Rutgers is up to 11th now.

Cool....they have this week off.

IF I Did It



This is the cover...of a book entilted IF I DID IT.

See the word IF anywhere in there?

It's a Simple DUMB Thing

I like animal crackers... love them actually.

It gives me great pleasure eating them.

It also... for some stupid ass reason... gives me some great pleasure to feed the cat shaped ones to Tucker.

My big ass pansy cat dog loves animal crackers too and in my mind... he loves the cat crackers the most.

I envision him drooling at the opportunity to rip the head off a cat.



He is a bad ass ... in my mind...

He rules the world of cats vs dogs and his doman requires that he eats all of the inferior cats.

It is my world... and I live in it alone sometimes.

Taking the Short Bus

Book 47 of 52 -- Not to Be Announced

I wish that I could write about the 47th book.

It is a book by one of the people (companies) that I work for.

Writing his name and what the book was about will give away too much about who I am...

I will say that they were true story anecdotes about his personal life and I will recommend it to anyone who wants to know that I know.

It's a fun story... but mostly funnnier because I know the people involved...
