Metaphysics and Miniature Golf

WIRED's 42 Things We Don't Know


Congratulations to Steven for Quarterbacking his team of little underachievers to their first league win, 18-12. He received a medallion for MVP by the team mom. The look of joy on his face when he ran for his first touchdown of the season was worth way more than the sign-up fees and equipment costs..

In other sports news, I'll be rooting for the Bears... just Bearly ... (get it?) only because I have friends and relatives who worship them... But I have NO SYMPATHY for Michael Vick, QB of the Falcons... Neither does Saturday Night Live.


I was sent this amusing, short time-waster by my bro-in law Jan. It is a Javascript Miniature Golf Game.. I shot a 53... Can you beat me? Probably... the 18th is a beeyotch...

Bob Dylan Wrote EVERYTHING! - Funny.

There's a new website up with some pretty funny stuff, I found out about from
popcandy.com
http://www.superdeluxe.com/

Never was a big Dylan fan till now... Gosh... I wish I could've heard his early renditions
of "Seasons In The Sun," "Let's Get It Started," and "Jump." Oh well...

Unlike the rest of the world, I'm 3% LESS satisfied with this season's initial 4 hours of 24, than last years.... Seems like the same stuff... and how he could steal somebody's car, with a BUILT-IN (1988??) cell phone, and use it to get mapping data of where the terrorists were.... could use some 'splainin... But I will watch,.,
Make sure you don't skip this week's "Scrubs"... Its done Broadway Musical Style... Pure Genius,.,,

Steven's football team will likely go winless this season... Apparently, all the other teams are actually already assembled ( ave played together for a year or two, competitively) tackle teams who are just using this touch football league as an offseason workout/practice... Our team is with absolute beginners (other than Steven).. In 3 games, they've lost 40-0, 33-0 and 40-0 and they haven't even been able to make a first down.... I'm writing a scathing letter to the company running this joke of a league, i9 Sports... to tell them to restructure it...This company is nationwide, and allows teams to be formed BEFORE they actually sign up... No tryouts, no splitting up the teams evenly.... bring any ringers you want... They are really going to turn a lot of kids off to sports forever....

I had a fairly uneventful holiday season.... no snow here in SoCal.. Damn Broncos played their way out of the post-season... Wished I could've gone to CES in Vegas.. (Consumer Electronics Show)...
I've been there about three times, all of them with Steve Flack... Couldn't go back there without him.. Just wouldn't be the same..
Steven played his first game of the season in the city Touch Football League, as Quarterback... He did well, though the team's Coach and other players are absolutely raw beginners, and they faced some freakish Powerhouse-Drill Sergeant-led overachievers with wristbands telling them what plays to run... It was like every kid sports movie you've ever seen,,, I felt like Rick Moranis... They lost 33-0.... Steven was NOT pleased...
Hopefully, all the teams aren't like that..

My sister asked for advice on the best way to get VHS into DVD... I've been using the Panasonic DVD recorders for years... dependable and easy.
