Moons over whatevah
It\’s looking like today might be a little bit slower than it has been in a long while, so why don\’t I crank out a tedious update of what has been going on over the past moon or so? HUH?! WHY DON\’T I?!?! Let\’s see … the trial Gia was working on, which gained intensity [...]

And now, a photo montage from Sunday morning called: OMG YOU WISH YOU MARRIED ME LOL!!1!

- I put some freakin\’ pictures of chili ingredients, Chomp & Stomp, and Auburn up on freakin\’ flickr for your freakin\’ reference and enjoyment. – I moved all of the fallen leaves around in my yard last weekend and took some pictures of the process, but those pics are still on the camera. I\’m like [...]
Read More...Shoes!
Yesterday I said I would tell you about buying new shoes. First, a short story. After graduating High School in 1994, I wrestled control of my life by quitting the shit out of my job as a morning line cook at IHOP on Johnson Ferry ($4.70/hr.), and making the seemingly career-savvy leap to the receiving [...]

Stuff that has happened recentishly: – Chomp and/or Stomp. I was reminded of this because a nice girl named Amy left the following comment on this entry: Hi, I was at the Chomp and Stomp, and I thought the Mother Puncher was the best!! It will be the kind of chili I aspire to make, [...]
Read More...Ready. Set. Chili.
Another Gerogia / Florida weekend. Another chili cookoff on the books. This year was the largest yet. 13 chili entries. 35 or so attendees with 25 completing at least part of a scoresheet. As has already been blogged / bragged, Alison took first with her Timberlake-inspired I\’m Bringing Chiliback. This is a double kick in [...]

Phil and Heather are in town this week, which is awesome, but it causes major shifts in our normal behavior patterns, which is … also awesome. For instance, last night after fajitas and margaritas at the lovely home of some other Pope \’94 alums, Phil and I stayed up until 2:00am playing Madden. Let me [...]

When we last checked, our hero was in Austin, Texas. He never got to venture outside of the rental car / hotel / meeting location bubble, so, as it stands, all of Texas still sucks. Hopefully Austin will get a chance to redeem Texas soon. Also, maybe it\’s getting chilly in Atlanta early this year, [...]
Read More...Tagged. I\’m it.
No, not like the hip Web 2.0 tagging that has helped reframe the concept of user defined content. No, not even like when bloggers tag each other because … actually I have no idea why bloggers tag each other. Knock it off. No, I\’m talking about Tuesday morning, when I was heading to work in [...]
Read More...Watch out, other shoe coming through
The Bulldogs\’ loss to Vandy (at home) feels less like a gut-wrenching tragedy in a campaign of innocence and more like the other shoe finally dropping. This team is lacking in a lot of areas, from coaching to kicking. No longer can we just pour some more Pepto on the problem and win another Colorado [...]
