Mother Said There Would be Days Like These

- I had about 1000 words written on health insurance this morning that ended up in /dev/null thanks to an unfortunate click of the Back button.
- Is TO a shithead or what?
- However, it was good to see Deion Sanders call him out for spitting in DeAngelo Hall’s face.
- Our dog has a mass near her spleen. Hard to tell if it’s cancerous or not, and at her age (14), exploratory surgery is iffy.
- Thursday Night Football still stinks. On Ice.
- We like Helena. We miss Candy Cane Lane, The Island of Misfit Toys, Christmas Wreath Lane and the Zoo lights in Billings.
- Went to Berkeley East on Friday. Didn’t have any leisure time there, but the town has certainly grown since ‘99.
- My good friend, Jim kicked some ass and took some names in the Weblog Awards.
- If it’s going to be a White Christmas, it better get going.
- Congratulations to Appalachian State on back-to-back National Championships. Maybe we’ll see you in Chatty in ‘07.
- For my money, Pam Oliver is the best sideline reporter broadcasting today. She could replace just about anyone in the booth.
- Two Words: Robot Sharks. Three more words: Deep Blue Sea.
- Finally, this one is for JP.
Out!

Hey man, have a better tomorrow

Same to you.
That is to say, have a good tomorrow if today was acceptable; otherwise if today was lousy may tomorrow be better.
Erm. Yeah.

Berkeley? Please, they couldn’t produce the Griz if they tried.
We’re more like the Boulder of the North.
That’s how I explain it to out-of-state liberals anyways. Although, I typically add that even the liberals in Missoula tend to be hunters and that it’s colder.
Gotta keep ‘em nervous — otherwise, they’d move in.

Sad when you are yearning for three wins in a season. *sigh*
Millen… give us something to root for.

You think you’ve got it bad? The team in my town — the Arizona Cardinals — have been mismanaged since before Matt Millen first had an accident in his diapers (and has been run out of two cities — Chicago and St. Louis). We’ve lost to the Broncos, the Chiefs, and the Raiders. (We play the Chargers in San Diego on New Year’s Eve. The over/under for TD’s by Ladian Tomlinson is 5; take my advice — go with the over.)
Matt Leinert may be a very good NFL QB — if he lives. (I said the same thing about Jake Plummer. We’ve given a nickname to the Cards’ O-Line: The Five Blocks of Jell-o.)

I don’t know if it makes you feel any better, Kirk, but my Steelers put one in the “W” column for the raiders, too. (Yes, that is a small ‘r’.)
The Cards are having a tough time of it, for sure. At some point, though, with free agency and salary caps, it will come around.
Soon.
I think.
I’d forgotten that the Cards were in Chi-town. I was talking to someone who is somewhat younger than I and I had to laugh, since he didn’t remember a time when there were 2 — count ‘em, 2 — pro football teams in Los Angeles, the Colts were in Baltimore, the Cards were in St. Louis, the SeaChickens were in the AFC, the Oilers were in Houston and Tampa Bay and Seattle were the new expansion teams.
