weekend work sucks, especially after you spend most of the night watching your favorite football team defeat an arch rival and top ten in the nation on their home turf.  It took me until about 12:30 to get the adrenaline down and stop murmuring “we beat Florida State….at Florida State” like a zombie and finally [...]

Last night Clemson defeated #9 FSU on their home field for the first time since 1989.  The wife and I had some friends over after figuring out that the local wing hut was packed with shamecocks.  Watching that victory on 48″ HD glory was much better anyways as we couldn’t have got that rowdy in [...]

Holy cow, I started looking up emulator machines, which I found out are called MAME (mulitple arcade machine emulator), and found that these are being made pretty much by anyone and everyone.  I googled creating a MAME machine and found some great pages!  THIS ONE seems to have the best descriptions and such.  Now all [...]

Work my 12 hours while listening to 104.9 the drive all day in pregame and during the Boston College/Clemson game.  Hope that production can keep quiet long enough for me to actually enjoy the show.  Simple enough.
 GO TIGERS!!!

Heaven forbid that someone in the media makes a documentary on 9/11 that actually looks past that day into the possible causes and measures of prevention that could have been made.  Now wittle Billy and his fwends are all upset that America will have the opportunity to be informed that he MAY have had the [...]

The Sporting Gnomes have the updated 2006 football schedule available for those of you who keep it as your desktop background.  Or am I the only one?!

My Google News feed has informed me that Steve Irwin has passed away.  After years of entertaining and pretty much pioneering the “are you insane!” animal documentaries, Irwin met his match when he took a stingray barb to the heart.  Surprisingly he had survived years of facing down crocodiles and much more vicious animals with [...]
