- You know what I can't wait for? This weekend. You want to know why? Because we have friends coming to visit. Sure it'll be nice to see them and hang out, but you know what the best part is? We'll actually turn the heat on!!! Normally, the temperature is between 58 and 62 in our house. The only time we turn it up any higher is when we have guests. So on behalf of my frozen fingers (they get really cold from all the typing I do) I beg of you, if you're thinking of coming up to visit, please do. Its tough constantly fighting off frostbite..
- Anyone else see this story? About the girl in the Clinton phone commercial. How she was 8 when the footage was shot, but she's 17 now and has actually been volunteering for the Obama camp for the past couple months. How great is that? Seriously, what are the chances on something like that happening. Clinton's gotta be saying, "you've gotta be effing kidding me" on this one..
- So my mother, in all her infinite kindness, got the great idea to get Celtics tickets for my father, my two brothers and myself. Great idea, seriously can't wait to go to the game in 3 weeks, I've been dying to go to one this year. They're playing the Miami Heat that game too. Although today, the Heat's announced that their star player, Dwayne Ward, will be missing the rest of the season due to injury. Now the Celtics would have rolled over the Heat anyway, but now its going to be like they're playing the freshmen, never mind the jv..
- One of my residents sat outside my office all day today making bird noises. I don't know if he was whistling or what, but it was like 3 hours of chirping. Seriously, I think I need a thicker door or some sort of tranquilizer dart gun...
- This is one of those stories that really rubs me the wrong way. This lady, a lawyer, is suing 6 casino's because she gambled away over a million dollars. She lost a cool million, and is suing for twenty million, makes sense right? She's saying that they should have stopped her and its their fault. Ummm person passing the buck and not taking responsibility for their own actions says what? Are you kidding me? So if you win a million at a casino, can they then sue you for taking their money? What if I go by 50 chain saws at home depot, can I then sue them for not stopping me? If this doesn't get tossed out of court immediately, I'll be very disappointed...
- Its good to be back in Maine. Way too many people down in Boston. For every one idiot up here, there's 20 down there. Too many people on the roads. Too many people in the stores. Speaking of stores, why is it that people feel the need to bring all six of their kids grocery shopping with them? Why not leave the kids home with dad while you go shopping or visa verse? They're yelling, they're screaming, they're running all over the place. Leave the kids at home lady!!! I never understood that, why do both parents need to go shopping together? Doesn't it make more sense for one parent to run out while the other stays home with junior? The wife and I don't even have kids and we NEVER go grocery shopping together. We're setting a precedent early! Planning ahead! But I digress...
- Good win by the Celtics tonight. They played like they were sleepwalking, but that's ok. At this point its about defining roles and getting the bench lots of playing time in order to rest the starters...
- So have you seen the show How I Met Your Mother? Funny sitcom on Monday nights on CBS. Anyway, apparently Britney Spears is taping an episode as a guest star. Why? Why would the producers/writers whomever, want her anywhere near the show. Its a funny, smart, entertaining show, why bring on this train wreck? Good job by her agents/handlers getting her on a legit show though. Might actually help restore some credibility to her wounded name.
- And finally... if you're having a bad day and really feel like punching someone in the head might make you feel better, then might I recommend you make a visit to this lady. Seriously, it's 2008 right? How does someone this incredibly stupid get elected to Congress? It's like her district gathered up their local village idiot and made her their rep. This really doesn't help the good people of Oklahoma much. Mom always said, if you can't say anything nice, don't say anything at all...

It's still cold in Maine?? This weekend I almost died of heat stroke while I was coaching. Sorry!
I wouldn't be surprised if the lady suing the casino actually wins. It's probably similar to bars being responsible for the drunks, if she can prove that she has an addiction or something like that.
I think it is brilliant to have Britney on How I Met Your Mother. That way, all sorts of people will be tuning in to see the trainwreck, like the show and continue watching, and maybe this year it won't be on the verge of being cancelled!
"It makes me feel a little disloyal and kind of," she said. "It hurts that footage of me would contribute to a candidate that I'm not necessarily supporting. Hopefully Mr. Obama would forgive me. "
I hope she enjoyed the money she got for that when she was 8. But really, this helps out Obama, since all the focus is on her as a supporter for the opponent, and not Hilary.
