A quote that made ME laugh out loud

I am by nature, NOT a laugh out loud guy. Don't get me wrong, I love comedy. I can still recite Steve Martins' 1977 "Lets Get Small" CD front to back. From http://idontlikeyouinthatway.com

"Strippers are supposed to give you a hard-on, not make you want to cut off your penis and throw it in a field."

Wigan 2-Arsenal 2--Gunners CRASH out of the Carling Cup


Thank you Jason Roberts as Wigan get a Extra time away goal to knock Arsenal out of the Carling Cup

my PERSONAL diet killer

It's late night grazing. I work at night and after nine pm, all bets are off. It's the single biggest
hurdle to my getting back in shape. So perhaps if i write about it, i wont do it. I'm not betting the house on it, but its worth a shot.

Scholes done for the season/ Add O'shea to the list






Scholes has an eye injury.....and is done for the year......anybody have a good mid-fielder we can borrow? This is not good news ahead of tommorrows http://www.carlingcup.com/ semi-final at Old Trafford against Blackburn. AND O'Shea is out 6 weeks with fractured ribs! WTF!

Time killer number one

my view




After some snow...the view from my front and back doors:

REstart your PC now

Ok..this is my second shot at creating a blog. To start Lets make sure we
have the badge on the blog. Its hard to explain where the obession began but it can be traced back to the world cup in 2002 and I caught the thing like bird flu.
After a almost april like weekend..its back snowing here in the northeast. It's been way too mild for some pay back in feb and march.
I've also "tried" to play soccer again.....and getting in shape and the roller coaster weight gains and losses will hopefully be documented here as well... and....yes i've got two kids so they too will play a large role as well as my
dog...
"Duncan" is a three year old "rough" collie. Great dog but a little shy....






--so thats a good intro....the weatherbug is flashing and i must keep tabs on the forcast since i have a 50 mile commute.
