The Tax Man Cometh!

Its that time of year again... im waiting for turbo tax to download updates so i can see how much the 'man' is keeping me down. Last year was the first year weve ever had to pay, thanks to a clerical error by my ex-employer. The bastards. But this year with the addition of our beautiful daugther i should hit the proverbial jackpot and get some money back... woo hoo! I realize this shouldnt be excited about getting my money back, but hey, its unexpected. Lets hope it works out.

Ill let you all know later if im taking up the ass again this year!
By the tax man of course.

Its snowing again

Oh yea... did i mention that it is freaking cold... this is like the 3rd day in a row of negative temps and now its snowing... I cant bitch too much, we havent had that much snow, but it is getting to the time of year when i start thinking about golf. This really sucks. You might ask why... well i have had a rather interesting winter... you take a small family reunion (my wifes) add some booze and some guys that think they could play football in the NFL, and you will get someone hurt. This would be alright except when its me. It was a great play... I knocked down the pass the would have been the game winning touchdown... but then I fell. For those of you that know me, you can guess that im not the most agile guy. 6'6" 300lbs. Im a big boy!
Well 300 lbs falling directly onto the should blade makes for a sweet separated shoulder... a type IV. According to the literature on the internet those are usually casued by motor vehicle accidents, or in my case a whole of weight smashing me into the ground. Needless to say it hurt. I swore. A lot.
I ended up having to have surgery to repair some things in the aforementioned shoulder right before Christmas. I got drugs. They made me tired. I having been going to physical therapy and started hitting the weights... I can lift 3 pounds with my bad shoulder... I rule.

Anyway I want to golf... now, but i cant. So i sit on sundays and watch golf (im a loser) and hope that i will be better by april or may so i can once again hit the links and drink beer.

But for now its freaking cold, and snowing again.
At least i can drink beer.

New Shit

As you can see if you have been here before, I am slowly getting shit put together on figureing it all out... that means I should have more time for posting... but for those that know me can attest to I dont have a life. Very little changes in my small niche of the world. I watch my kid grow up too fast and myself old too fast... but that is the life of a guy like myself.

Dont get me wrong. Im happy were Im at... i have a great job, a beautiful wife, and a wonderful daughter. We have a house, a dog and a couple of cars. We are living the American dream. Oh yeah... i also own part of a party bus... that is my attempt to hold onto my youth. As time goes on you will learn more of me and my screwed up views on the world and whatever pops into my head. As for now... i need to work or i will probably lose all the cool shit i just mentioned because im gonna get fired...

Super Bowl

As anyone witha pulse knows it is the time of year for the greatese sporting event of the all.... The Super Bowl.

This year is a little different, I just can barely get myself excited for it. The 2 teams playing this year really dont interest me at all, I dont like the Pats, and the Panthers, well, who cares... Yes, its football, that is the only saving grace. After this I will be reduced to watching Arena league games every now and then so I can fend off the shakes of withdrawl. I cant wait.

After the close of the boring game that I will sit and watch and cheer for what else is there. I have college basketball, that is my only saving grace until the start of football once again in august. What do you do after march madness subsides... I know some people are huge baseball fans, but the only good time watching baseball is when your at the game, sweating your ass off and chugging down $5 beers like your an alcoholic that fell off the wagon. Thats it.

Oh well... go Panthers.

Oh yea... its snowing again.. not a lot but 3-5 inches... just enough to let you know its still winter and golf is at least 2 months away.. this blows.

Freaking Asinine!

Ok... this is my first real post of anything that matters... I still am working... adding content is easy... I just dont have the time to go and starting working on the aesthetics of the site yet... I will... really.

Im sitting here listening to sports talk raido (im a dork), and there is a blurb about how during the Kobe rape trial his lawyer brings up in open court that he may have been falsely accused of rape because he's black. Let me say this... I dont think that he raped her... but he did put himself into a comprimising position... For Christ's sake hes married... he banged another chick... and hes a superstar. Way to think this through. Its not a race issue... its an issue of smart vs. stupid. Regardless of whether he is guilty, black or white, there is a good chance that would happen to any superstar just because of the fact that the accuser could make out with a quick buck....

Keep your dick in your pants and dont starting banging stray if you are married... it will keep you from getting in trouble...

Plus dont play the race card if its not racism... racism is bad enough without people crying wolf trying to make it work for them.

HTML

Ok, here is the deal... i have no clue what I am doing, so this may take awhile. It is all trial and error with me as far as getting this damn thing set up. I mean I know how to do quite a bit on the computer but as far as programming im an idiot, really. I would appreciate it if anyone who checks out my site would give a chance and come back again... because now its pretty plain, but I will do better.

Thank you for your support.

First

This is it... I have finally gotten my lazy ass to do this... hopefully I can keep up with some new postings and learn how to make this thing look good.

I have to thank my boy Robby for getting me motivated to try and get this going... and to Gooseneck for the inspiration to try and make a blog that could be as cool as his. Anyway I hope to try and get some things changed and get more posts up soon.

Thanks for checking it out!
