Last night was the last night of the regular kickball season. The playoff tournament is going to take place while I am in Denmark, so I am done. I will miss kickball. I will definately have to play again next season. I mean, I'm bad, but it's a blast!

Also, for the second time in my life, I engaged in kareoke. Same result as last time: people laughed and looked embarrassed for me, while I had fun. I did a stunning rendition of "Bad Medicine" by New Jersey's own Bon Jovi. All hail me! :D

The song of the day, of course, must be "Bad Medicine"! Imagine it being sung wildly off key, and you'll get the effect. ;)

12 days. I'm starting to feel the pressure in my chest. Good thing I got all of the wild oats out last night! ;)

My throat still hurts. What I lack in skill, I make up for in volume and enthusiasm.

Do I have anything to talk about other than kareoke? Nothing that comes to mind easily.

I just heard about the passing of Maynard Ferguson. I'm not all that big into jazz or trumpets, but I did happen to see a show of his, and he was great. He lived a pretty full life, though, I think, and that's as much as anyone can hope for in this crazy world.

Moving on to the weekend!!!

13-VII-2014 or What The Hell Am I Doing With My Life

Title refers to a line from the Lonely Island song "After Party" as I have no questions about what I am doing with my life. I feel like I have three or so on-line communities that I post to, apologizing for the long absence, and claiming I'm going to start coming back and not ignoring the valuable friends I haven't spoken to in ages. And, typically, this lasts a few weeks to a month, and then I am doing other things, or getting busy, or just feeling blah, and there I go dropping off the face of the Earth for another extended absence.

Just seeing if I can get a picture of Malachi to show up here... If this works, this is Malachi's "Get that camera out of my %^&*ing face!" look! Go »

12-II-2009 or Say What Now?

I got my little Ticketmaster e-mail, about upcoming shows in my area, and I got really excited, because I looked it over quick, and I saw "An Evening With Dio"! So as I dance around the office, with "Holy Diver" running through my head and a joyous smile blossoming on my face, I look a little closer... An Evening With Il Divo. Go »

2-VIII-2007 or I Don't Have an Aunt Flo...

but I had issues! Unfortunately, last week went to Hades, thanks to an unscheduled visit from Uncle Intestinal Discomfort. I was pinned to my bathroom from Wednesday night into Saturday morning, with no internet access, so I was unable to even try to make a showing in the GOO finals. Go »
