Pretty good week

Feelin pretty good. Played in a poker tourney at my buddys last Sat and came in first. 190 pay out, not too bad. Fair week at work, nothing too crazy happened.

Was supposed to go to Athens for Halloween this freekend but I think im gonna bail on my friend, hope he dosnt mind. This just in, goin to the Bengals game on Sunday vs Greenbay, I hope we whoop em. Shouldnt have lost last week, that was crap. Anyway, im outta here, later yall...

Ups and Downs

Well, another week is here and soon to be gone. It was kind of an up and down weekend. An old friend/acquaintance from high school passed away unexpectedly on Saturday. He was a huge influence on the community and an all around great guy. You may have heard of Jason before as he played in the NBA; and was also named Ohio's Mr. Basketball in 1996. He left behind a wife and young baby. Very unfortunate. I was going to talk about some other sports teams but I think that will wait for another post... Very sad.

UPDATE:
Here is a video of Jason played at his memorial at Catholic Central where we attended high school.

New Feed.

Sweet. I added a new RSS / XML feed link on the side bar. Works very well with all your average feed readers. Just add the pointer and you are all set. I like and use RSS Bandit for all my stuff. Very straight forward, easy to use, highly customizable, and supports a ton of sync utilities etc. Check out the feature list.
Also, I must give super props to FeedBurner.com! This site rocks the house. Not only do they convert your blog to XML for you, they also host, hit count, reader / aggrator / bot count it, and give you about a thousand other free tools at your disposal. I am still fingering through all the stuff myself, so there may be additional posts later concerning the amount of sweetness that seeps from the depths of the FeedBurner domain.

So. What do I need to do this on my own blog you quietly mutter?
First, go to FeedBurner.com, enter your blog link, and hit next, next, activate (obviously signing up, taking note of url, etc). Then go to 'My Feeds' > Publicize > Chicklet Chooser to get your html code. Copy that..
Second, go to your blog and paste the code wherever you want it to display and republish. BAM, there it is with the new link on your page.
Third, download and install RSS Bandit from download.com (i couldn't seem to get it from SourceForge). Then add your new Feedburner URI to 'New Feed..'. Thats it, your done. Also be sure to change the properties of the link to display 'Older then' whatever you want, you know, to see all your posts...

Happy XMLing...

Disappointing weekend.

Well this weekend sucked for all the sports teams I follow. First off, OSU lost at Penn State. It was really a disappointing display of football all together. I know in some previous posts I was knocking Zwick a little, but Smith needs to understand that he can not do it all either. I will say no more.

Now im not a big golf fan either, but the Woods / Daly showdown was pretty intense. If you watched the event you know Daly chocked on the 2nd green (i think it was the 16th hole). He had, more or less, a tap-in to take it to another hole and lipped it out. He was so pissed that he could hardly shake anyone's hand. I felt soo bad for him, i wanted him to take it.

Now to the Bungals. I love seeing Natti doing well. That was their game to win, though a valiant effort considering they were up against one of the best defensive lines in the league. HooDey bitches...

My Wife...?

Wellp, if I ever find this woman I will do everything in my power to assist her in falling deeply in love with me.... raaaaaaarrrr


Beautiful, I mean look at those eyes and that smile...My gosh

I will try to make it better...

In an attempt to make this blog a bit more interesting I am going to try and add some decent content. I promise I will post some pics cuzz I know thats what ppl want, but in the meantime here are a few files I found entertaining:

This is an SWF file called end of the world (sound required). I am sure many of you have seen it b4, though nonetheless very funny. Props to the author whom I do not know.

And here is a DOC named Technical Support Fees. As you may know I am a computer guy and found it to be quite entertaining...

And like I said, I will get some pics up as soon as I can, for now, have fun with whats here... ;-)
