I’ve posted on this issue before (see end of this post for links) but now I have a 10 year old in my house. I’ve been talking with one of my friends who has a son about the same age as Cooper. We’ve decided that the hardest age group to determine what is […]

I’m down. I can’t even talk on the phone for long periods of time without needing a nap.
The only silver lining….my laptop and Halo 3. (Which by the way…exceeded my expectations.)

The Tide and the Hogs
Category: sports | 12 Comments
I’m not an Arkansas fan but I can empathize with them.
The Tide lost a close game with a good Georgia team. What Saban has done with the same talent that Shula had is pretty impressive. Can’t wait until Alabama gets some talent and experience.
I was talking with my dad about the Tide and […]

as in…
Missing…if you see them, contact Mike Shanahan immediately.
Make a special edition for the special teams as well.
The only thing worse than the game on Sunday were the announcers. I thought Rich Gannon was bad.

Amy’s Much Needed Recharge
Category: family ties | 2 Comments
Amy gets the weekend off. She’s going on a women’s retreat/getaway/stay-up late and eat junk food binge with other women this weekend in LoDo. She’s going with Kitty and Anita and Suzanne and well…that’s not what’s important.
What’s important is this - she gets a chance to recharge. It’s not that she is […]

The short version of the story is this - a few white boys hung a noose in front of school and made racially insensitive (and stupid) comments. One of those white boys got beat up by 6 black boys. Except they weren’t boys, they were men or at least were tried as men […]

The dominance continues…
In ECFC, another solid week of points, another divisional game, and another incredibly close game but this time I get the W. It had to be the timeout I called right as he was preparing to kick the game winning field goal.
Parker Highlanders (1-1) - 141
Da Bears (1-1) - 139
