I realize this is old news for many of you, but I thought it was worth mentioning that Amanda and I have decided that she’s far too attractive to be dating me. I kid, I kid. She decided. Okay, fine. Our break-up was a totally mutual thing and didn’t have anything to do with the fact that [...]
I’m still no Doug Hass, but my ever so subtle hint back in May that I might be a part of the book that the guys at Roll ‘Bama Roll were putting together is one step closer to reality. Maple Street Press has finally added Yea Alabama 2008 to their website and, if their article listing [...]
From my first job bussing tables when I was sixteen, throughout undergrad, and through two and a half years of law school I had a fairly remarkable record: I never interviewed for a position that I wasn’t offered. That streak ended quite unceremoniously today when I got an email informing me that I had [...]
I cannot overstate the number of people that have asked me about this year’s beer pong tourney1. Until today, I had maintained that I didn’t really have the space to do it. I now realize that I was mistaken. I have all of the space required, I just need some warmer weather. So come March or [...]
Wow. For weeks, literally, we’ve listened to people who have been whining about how Hawaii should’ve been in the championship game. “Hawaii’s undefeated”, they’d exclaim! “LSU has two losses”, they’d say in such a tone as to imply that maybe we hadn’t yet realized that two is greater than zero. “Who cares if their schedule is [...]

Last week Deer Park finally closed out my account and sent me the statement of fees and things. I’m not at all surprised that they are doing everything they can to try to screw me over. They’re asking for almost $3,000 in “repairs”, well over half of it is for “Carpet Replacement”… oh, you mean [...]
For a while I thought that maybe Blingo had broken up with me. After a steamy string of near-monthly wins, it stopped. I won again in June, but the other day I realized that it had been awhile. Blingo must have noticed, too… since today… Thanks, Blingo… glad to see you still care. For those scoring at [...]
Work and blogging elsewhere has been keeping me busy lately. This week is especially crazy given the fact that FanHouse is running my series on the ten dirtiest football programs which is a response to this nonsense. I started Monday posting two teams per day, which puts me on pace to reveal the dirtiest football [...]
So I’ve advanced into the Sweet 16 of the Ladies… Hot Blogger Bracket. This is a good thing, I suppose. The bad thing, however, is that my wee #9 seed has drawn a #1 seed. I cannot win this round and advance into the elite 8 (where I will almost surely get my rear handed [...]
