April 30, 2010I don't remember what this meal was, but it was evidently good.
I see parts of our Ronco rotisserie there, an ice cream scoop, and the cake batter bowl. We must have been feeling it that night.![]()

Football coaches - gotta love 'em. Clemson running backs coach Andre Powell talking about fullback Chad Diehl:
The topic was raised with Powell that many of the better backs say it takes them 10-15 touches to get into the flow of a game, and he was asked if he felt like that could be an issue with a two-back system, and Powell said that was not an issue: it was an excuse.
"I think that's a good excuse. That's mental, too,” he said. “You need to get your 10 or 15 snaps in pregame. Once we get it on offense, the first time we turn around and give it to you, you need to be ready to go. I don't hear [Chad] Diehl saying, 'I've got to make 10 or 15 blocks before I really get the feel of a game.' When we say 'hut,' and Diehl takes off, somebody's fixing to get splattered."
"I had Madison Hedgecock, who plays for the Giants and won a Super Bowl and played with the Rams before that,” Powell said. “He didn't do what Chad does. When Chad hits people, he hurts them. When we played Nebraska in the Gator Bowl a couple of years ago, he hit a guy in the chest and the kid collapsed. The kid has broke several helmets on his head. He's a freak.

I was a welder for about five years. From the first day of my first job (I worked at Mathews Mill for three years in high school), I always wanted a sit-down job.
In 2006, I got my wish. My back and I don't miss standing all day, that's for sure.


I'm glad these guys are starting new phases in their lives, making some major jack and everything, but those busts are just ridiculous.
Come on, Subway.
What's up with Suh's eyes? Is his bust going to be in a new Thriller video?

For a long time, I thought four-leaf clovers were just a legend. Then, I developed patience and found joy in being outdoors...

A conference table on Elvis Presley's private jet. Lisa Marie celebrated one of her early birthdays at this table.
I wonder if Joe Mann, like this father in California, is making a statement by flying the U.S. flag in this condition.
A California man who promised to fly the American flag until his son comes home from Iraq is getting a little heat—along with sympathy—for the tattered condition of Old Glory, reports Fox News. Louis Haros’ son, Paul, will be home this week after a tour—his second—that started in September. “I made a promise to him that it won't come down until he's home,” Haros says. “I feel if I bring it down and something happens to him. ... I don't know.”

Man, the mid-thirties are hurtling toward me at what I can only describe as an alarming rate.
Where's the time going?
