Ah! The conversations you can have when you are up 12 points in the World Series!

I have always been a bit of an aviation fan, so I was excited to see these pictures of the A380!

The Suite concept is pretty amazing! Although, I am sure it won’t be long before the cabins are all a bunch of tightly packed seats.

After years of watching her bigger sister go to birthday parties, “Thing 2” was invited to a party today. It was a costume party and she went as tinkerbell.

Like any father, I am mildly concerned that her cuteness may show up anyone else at the party.

I read yesterday’s poem to “The Pretty One”.

Understandably she was mildly offended.

She pointed out that I haven’t written her a poem in years, but have now written one for meat.

I was quick to point out that it isn’t really exactly meat.

 

I hate it when I have $0.50 to put in the vending machine, then realize that one of the quarters is for a state that I don’t already have in my collection.

 

A Poem to a love of my life…
(or… Carl has an extremely random moment)

Oh Braunschweiger, Braunschweiger.
The very thought of that which makes up you
Repulses me.

Even so I find myself
Strangely attracted to you.

You, with your smokey essence
Of the unthinkable
Still brings completion
To my brown bag lunch

Week 6 and I finally got my first Fantasy Football win.

 

I play “Fantasy” football almost as poorly as I play “Real” football.

I got excited to see this headline on CNN’s site this morning:

Political Blog: Where is Fred Thompson

It was an article about his position in the presidential race.

I was bummed that it didn’t say something like “Still in Bed” or “Having a breakfast of Toast and Bananas”.

Now THAT would have been Web2.0!
