Politics

I’ve had a couple political conversations recently that got me thinking. When did people stop listening to each other? I mean, what is this Congress? (that’s how you complete the joke, by the way) But seriously, when do people get to the point that they just stop listening to each other? And this works on …

Squirrel in the Snow

Got up Wednesday morning and it was a beautiful, gray, snowy, winter Michigan morning. So as I was looking out the window, I spotted a squirrel eating the berries off the tree just outside my window. So I snapped some pictures. I love squirrels, and I think they make some of the best animated characters …

Tuesday Morning Quarterback (Week Twelve)

So why did I pick this year to officially start calling myself a Lions fan? I can’t stand McQuarters, and now I have to put up with him again, and now I got Jauron too? Well, more on that later. Well, the Colts are really freakin good, I don’t think there’s anymore doubt about that. …

Coffee and Girls

I don’t know what it is about women that serve me caffeinated beverages, but I think I have a crush on another one. Since this is like the 5th or 6th one, I think this is getting a little ridiculous. Is it because they’re making me something that’s awakening, the last legal drug if you …

Good Night, and Good Luck

The Punk Rock Show

A friend of mine is in a punk band called The Battle Scars, and they were playing the other night at a local club called THE ROCKER!! Just seems like you should always yell that name. Anyway, so I went to the show, and really quite enjoyed myself, and overall I was very impressed for …

Tuesday Morning Quarterback (Week Eleven)

And then I saw that win. Now I’m a believer. The thing about being a Chicago fan, is that you’re so used to disappointment that it’s hard to ever let your guard down and really believe in your team. For example, every White Sox fan out there was cheering like crazy, and possibly enjoying themselves …

Worst Sports Radio Show Ever

Okay, just a quick rant here. I’m sick and tired of Sports Radio personalities whose sole gimmick is that they make fun of people. For example, Jim Rome is an idiot. His hair looks stupid, and his nose is all…. I was trying to be ironic. Anyway, his only real selling point for his show …
