Why Blog So Often?

Recently, I was informed that a blog should be updated at least a few days per week. Why? Even computer geeks (not that there is anything wrong with that) have more to do than gaze upon recent posts...don't you guys? I like to post maybe once every week and a half or so, to make sure all 5 of you who actually read this thing get a chance to do so before I update it again. So, I need some feedback: how often should I put up a new post? Between all I have going on, I honestly don't think about posting that often. But if more posts are requested, I suppose I'll appease the masses. Yeah, apparently I'm a sell out.

On to more important things. My Super Bowl predicition at this point is Chicago 34 - Indianapolis 30. I honestly think this could be a really good Super Bowl. I'm by no means an NFL buff; in fact, many women probably follow pro football more closely than me...

You know what, I just realized that I'm not qualified to make a prediction. If I have time, I'll think about it and post a real prediction later.

Too much to talk about...

-Grad school ignited

-Lost a quarterback (good riddance)

-Lost an offensive coordinator (in doing so regained our dignity)

-Training

-Birthday

-Learning more and more that God does exactly what He says He will do

Why I'm Currently Stoked


Who is it that sings that ridiculous song called "I'm So Excited"? I'm so not a fan. But, for the time being, I can relate to the lyrics of such a prize piece. The reason: 24 returns for its 6th season in exactly 2 days!!! I remember how depressed I was late last May when they showed a trailer for season 6, followed by the disclaimer "Coming in January 2007." Well friends, the time is here. We know Jack Bauer has been captured by underground Chinese secret agents and probably been imprisoned in northern Siberia. Sure, he'll escape or be rescued, or maybe all the guards will simultaneously acquire hyperbaric foot ulcers and be unable to chase Jack if he makes a run for it. You never know with this show, for better or worse. That is why I am currently stoked. Until then-enjoy!

My Random Opinions

If anyone is interested in knowing me deeper (yes, you) then there are some opinions I hold that make me unique.
These opinions act in such a way because my view is typically different from most on a few certain topics. The following is a random collage of thoughts held by me, the white d-mac (Darren McFadden beat me out for the title of the black d-mac).

1. Coldplay sucks because Chris Martin doesn't sing very well. Not because he can't, but he chooses not to. Don't believe me? The next time you see someone choking in a restaraunt, tell me his cries for dear life don't sound like Apple's father crooning "Nobody said it was easy"

2. Scarlet Johansson: not that hot! No, I don't think she's ugly, or even unattractive. I just don't find myself pursuing girls who look like they've been on an episode of Cops screaming for their alimony check. That's an extreme over-exaggeration, she's ok.

3. Rocky V was a pretty good movie. I don't have much to back this up, but Rocky's character is a natural choice to get into a back-ally brawl.

4. Kill Bill is possibly the worst movie made. Kill Bill vol. 2 is a close second, I'm sure, but I must confess I never finished either.

5. Jerry Seinfeld is not funny. And on that note, Elaine's character is possibly TV's most annoying feminine presence of all time.

6. The best kind of weather is very cloudy, cold, windy, and drizzly.

7. Vince Young will NOT succeed in the NFL in the long run. Oh sure, he had a great rookie season---FOR A ROOKIE WHO NO TEAM HAS SEEN BEFORE THIS SEASON!!! Trust me, he's way, way overrated.

8. David Letterman, even on his best day, will never be a better late night talk show host than Jay Leno or Conan O'Brien. Its not that he's not funny, but mainly because of his idiot band leader, Paul Whats-his-face.

9. Potato salad is better served hot. In fact, I can only eat it when served hot. If any of you are ever in the Capitol Bistro, order the "D-style" potato salad. That mean's you want it microwaved. So far, I've only gotten one other person to try it. But it will catch on. Oh yes, it will catch on.
