Fave Five Friday - Wedding Party Gift Ideas

Friday, September 12th, 2008

OK, so this somewhat of a self-serving post, but what the h*ll, let's give it a shot. :P We're getting down to the wire for this whole wedding thang, and I'm trying hard to think of an awesomely unique gift idea for my boyz/groomsmen/wedding party. I've been on a few parties ...

Bye Bye Brady

Tuesday, September 9th, 2008

As many of you probably already know, Tom Brady, the New England Patriots' dreamy quarterback, is done for the year. In the first quarter of the first game of the year, he injured his knee (ACL/MCL) when Kansas City's Bernard Pollard hit it from an odd angle as he was throwing. ...

EATS! - Poke Monday

Monday, September 8th, 2008

Last Monday, I was lucky enough to buy fresh ahi from a friend's fishing expedition. Since it was sold to me at such a good price, I thought I'd spoil myself (and others) by making poke out of the entire 2-3 pounds; something I'd never even consider doing at regular ...

In my never ending attempt to lure the lurkers out of hiding, I am inviting y'all to participate in this modern day debate: Your list of Sizzlin' Hotties. Post your list below and teach me a thing or two about today's eye candy. Since I've been out of the game ...

Are You Ready for Some Football!?

Thursday, September 4th, 2008

This afternoon, the defending Superbowl Champ New York Giants host (Colt Brennan and) the Washington Redskins, a game that will kick off the 2008 NFL Football Season. Seventeen plus weeks of beer drinking, score checking, and overall lazy unproductive Sundays are on the horizon. Caaaaaaan yoooooouuuuu dig it? I can almost ...

What’s In a Name?

Tuesday, September 2nd, 2008

Recently, two professional athletes did the unthinkable and legally changed their names to their nicknames. MMA fighter Jon "War Machine" Koppenhaver, to get around a WWE wrestler's trademarked name, changed his legal name to War Machine. That showed 'em. Not to be outdone, NFL wide receiver Chad Johnson added "Ocho Cinco" ...

Wedding Stamps

Friday, August 29th, 2008

So yesterday I was assigned the task of picking up the femme-looking stamps from the Post Office. Our envelope was a bit heavier than the $0.42 standard, so I had to think on my feet and decide which $0.59 stamp (or combination) to get. A yellow heart, a sunflower or ...

Fantasy Football Draft Results

Tuesday, August 26th, 2008

So we're 4 picks away from completing our Fantasy Football Draft for this year. Hallelujah! There are 10 of us and it's taking painfully loooong. Since we couldn't find a good time when all of us could meet up for a live, draft party, we decided to do the ol' standy, the convenient ...

Nose Hairs

Tuesday, August 12th, 2008

Continuing with yesterday's delightful conversation, let's talk nose hair. As we get older, we not only lose the hair on our heads, but father time slaps us in the face two times and puts it back in places you'd never guess or prefer. The ear, the nose, the neck, the back... ...

Let’s Talk Hair

Monday, August 11th, 2008

Continuing the trend of learning a little too much about me (why stop now right? :P ), let's talk about the mystery of hair. As we get older, we lose it where we're supposed to have it and we gain it where it's not supposed to be. Anybody every wonder ...

Brett to Jet Set

Thursday, August 7th, 2008

Dammit! I had this quirky lil' blog post about Brett Favre set to publish tonight at midnight, and then he had to go and get traded. Ruin my whole post why don't you B Fav? Now I gotta pretty much re-write the whole thing in the present tense so I don't ...

Portuguese Bean Soup Weekend

Monday, August 4th, 2008

After watching an episode of Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives, I got inspired to give this cooking thing a try. Cooking, like real estate, is one of those things I feel I would be good at if I gave it a go. You know how you just have that feeling? Anyway... After ...

Mario Kart Me!

Sunday, August 3rd, 2008

You've seen 'em errwhere. From lil' kids to full-blown adults. Staring mightily and intently into the little Nintendo DS screen. Depending on your age and level of pop culture expertise, some of the questions you may've asked yourself were: * "What is that... a cell phone?" (old as dirt) * "What are they ...
