It's Been Ahwile....

Wow it's been.....what???... A month since the last post... Nothing new...



I'm sitting here drinking a cold one (damn near frozen that is) waiting on the game to start and going to catch up here.



So.. since I last posted - I had to run out of town for a funeral. Go Back to work, etc. Doesn't work suck. I think back then I weighed about 248lbs. Well with hard work and determination I've managed to bring that down to 235 as of today!!!



I've commited to doing the 24hrs of Big Bear - but I'm not so sure if there is even a team, we'll keep you posted as that goes.



I did manage yesterday to get out and ride offroad for the first time in the new year. Heck probably several months if you go back to the Old year.



The ride was just at the local Boy Scout Camp, started at my place rode down Howells Mill and did a little connector trail over to Big Cabelll creek. Normally this trail sucks in my opinion, but today it was frozen and solid, and they've actually done . Only the latter portion was in bad shape due to some horseback riding.


Then over to the scout camp for a small loop and back to my place. Lot of walkin' uphills, chicken shit ridin' down hills. Feet got cold near the end. Of course back home to sit in the tub...





Cold beer and a Hot Tub
well I'm missing the game have to run...

Almost 2008 OU approaching and NO COACH!


Really there's probably more important things to worry about than your favorite College Football Team... Anyhow... we still have no coach...


It's Official - I've lost the playlist for the 2007 CD - I know you're devastated. Get Over it. Drink a Beer.


here's one...
I'm drinking one now.. Straight from my Holiday pack of beers from Krogers. Yummy. I grabbed this image from a neat site....
RateBeer.Com Seems you can go there and get beer ratings... Something to do if you're bored...
This one scored a 2.8 out of 5.
And after swigging it... I see why....
I just don't like this type of stuff... That's ok.. I got a few more to go.. Maybe it'll grow on me.
So what else???
Basically been out of town running here and there...
Wed eve - To Buckville to visit Susan's parents... then Thursday to visit my family in Grafton, then home.
Skully managed her bladder well!
Today got up and ran for about 15 minutes at Susans, then came home and did some spinups on the trainer.
Other than that busy busy busy.
Well I won't bore anyone with senseless dribble.

The CD part II - not today....

well somehow I deleted that playlist.... the iPhone is in the car......

I'll continue my great commentary at a later date...

However I'd like to comment on the complete ineptitude of WVU to hire a coach..

Eddie Pastilong needs fired... Mike Parsons Needs Fired.. Mike Garrison is in over his head... AND GOVERNOR JOE (I need my face in the press) Manchin needs to stay out of the search..

According to the PITT Post Gazzette - we renigged on the deal to get Jimbo Fisher!!!!! Fire them all...

What the hell does a governor have to do with searching for a college football coach.

Should he not focus on making us 48th in something instead of 49th????


merry christmas!!!!!!!

Merry Christmas.... Still No Coach!!!! pt 1













Oh crap.. we still have no coach.. But that's a story for another day...

This morning, had a great brunch with Susan's parents.... The Queen B even dropped by.... breakfast casserole, macadamia nut french toast, pomegranate mimosa's, pumpkin pancakes... Delicious...
I'm stuffed and am having to go eat Mexican later this eve.....
Mexican's good though.
But anyway, many of you (or the few the proud and the bored) may have gotten your Christmas cards and wondering what that crappy CD is... Well I'm here to tell ya...
2007 The Mellow Years....
I Give it that name as I'm gettin' old... my tastes in music either default to 1980 or I pick up something new and just don't like it... But this is a taste of what I picked up this year....
The CD starts of with these men who've been residing in the "Where Are They Now File" the scorps... This is "HOUR I" off of "Humanity Hour I". This CD is actually pretty good... I wouldn't be too scared to pick it up if you like the scorps... It's not Cheesy other than their pictures of 50year old men trying to look cool. Reminds me when I take off my shirt.....


The Next song is DEATHSTAR by Sevendust... This song is one of the few that will satisfy the Hard and Heavy crowd... Comes off the album Alpha, released back in the spring I think. It's good, but typical Sevendust, as the shit just runs together. (Remember I'm an old codger reviewing new music).


Velvet Revolver and "GET OUT THE DOOR" - brings you to the days of when you picked up that ugly chick and wanted her out of the room before your roommate buddies woke up. This as a good rocker - sounds like you should enjoy this band as it looks like Scott Wieland is facing about a year in jail after his last encounter.


FAR CRY - RUSH - is there a drummer out there that doesn't like Neil Peart (spelling) This is the best Rush Album I've listened to in years.... If your a Rush fan and have given up on them pick this disc up - It rocks. "Snakes & Arrows".


TESLA - "I've Got A Feeling" - Disc: "Reel to Real" - pretty good from another band from yesteryear. Cover's disc seems to be what everyone want's to put out these days. I'm not even going to bother looking up the cover for it.
That's followed by Hillary Clinton's wet dream - Terrible Ted Nugent - the man the myth the legend - and by all accounts he'll be glad to tell you how great he is. I don't know what to say about this disc... it mostly sucks.. songs like "Funk U", "Spirit of the Buffalo", "Bridge over troubled Daughters"..... "Love Grenade" is by far the best song, the album is way better than craveman, but it won't be album of the year by any means. If you're a Ted fan, check it out. it's fun, nothing more.

Ok well on that note I have to run..... I'm late for dinner.... I'll finish this tomorrow or the next day...
so long....
PITT Sucks, but Rich Rod swallows...
