The Bruins Win

The Bruins scored seven goals against the Penguins tonight, including FIVE (5) in the third period.

Tim Thomas wasn’t quite the goalie god tonight, giving up four goals to the Penns, so what does the team missing three of it’s top six forwards do?

Score a touchdown, babie. That’s what they do.

Inspiration and Stuff

See this book?

That book inspired me to take this picture:

Now, that book combined with this link and these coordinates will hopefully, maybe, produce a couple more pictures.

We’ll see.

Googlebot Humor

Today at 5:15 a googlebot spent 17 minutes and 59 seconds on two of this blog’s pages.

From sitemeter:

(oh like that classy crappy bit of formatting is going to hold)

I wonder what a googlebot was doing on my stupid page for almost 18 minutes. It must have been stuck in a lame loop.

(addendum: The formatting did not hold. Fortunately your humble blogger knows a little tiny bit of HTML and made a table. I couldn’t remember the attribute to show the grid lines though so I had to ask the woman of my dreams. It’s border=”1″)

WoW

My wife is a long time World of Warcraft player. She keeps asking me to play with her. We’ll play it together for a few weeks and then lose interest for a while, and a couple of months will go by and then she’ll ask to play again.

She asked to play again last week. We started from scratch with new characters. Something happened this time that never happened before…

One day this past weekend… I played it without her.

It’s like a gateway drug for gamers. Any day now I’ll be skipping work to join a guild or something.

hehehe

November 8th?

No… it can’t be November 8th. Wasn’t it just New Year’s Day about a month ago? What the hell happened to 2010? I have entries on my work calendar for 2011 and when I see them I think, well that’s a long way off… then I realize it’s only two months away!

I know exactly why 2010 flew by so fast. I turn 40 in 2011, that’s why. Oh no!

We had guests last night. My brother, his wife, and their two beautiful kids came and had dinner with us. We are seeing a trend. Sunday comes along and Jen gets a burning desire to cook a huge Sunday dinner. On kid weekends there are four of us to eat these big Sunday dinners, but on non-kid weekends we have to call other people up and ask for help eating everything.

Jen cooked a roast last night. It was goooood.

My niece snuggled up against me on the couch. I was the happiest Uncle in the world. On the way out the door she yelled that she loved our new house. She’s two and she knows exactly what to say. She’s brilliant! Her baby brother is adorable. He did what four week olds do. He slept, he cried, he ate. In other words, he was perfect.

It was a really good weekend.

What We Did Yesterday

Jen had a spur of the moment idea yesterday. Here is what it lead to…


She is just a walking great idea, that wife of mine.

Today though, she felt like cooking a roast and that lead to my brother’s family coming over for dinner. That means a two year old and a four week old will be visiting us tonight.

Another great idea.
