Water Poker rules!

Who needs the casino when you can just bring your own table and play in the pool???

Titty Tuesday

*Oh wait, wrong blog.

* I don't play much online poker, but maybe I should. According to SharkScope, a website that tracks online poker, I don't do terribly.



I have positive return on investment, and I'm in the black. Not a bad thing.

* While we're doing pictures, let's just take a look at this:



How the hell do I live here? I hate snow, and I sure as hell don't like it when the high temperature is 4! 4. Four. I guess if it wasn't for the Packers, I would probably leave.

* Go Packers!!!!





BTW - it wasn't 5 degrees out that day.

The good 'ole days

As I was bringing back to life some of the old posts I had in draft from blogs-a-past, I came across some pretty good stuff. Well, you might not think so, but I think this shit's hilarious. Like this little gem from February of last year...

Old Banners

I was thinking about my old blog site that still had my banner up. I've had a lot of banners over the years... let's see if we can dig some up...

The original:

Ah memories. It's been a long and ever-changing run. Maybe some day I'll create a decent banner for this site. Maybe...

Is that a floppy disc in your pocket, or...

Hey, just can't get over using those old floppys (floppies?), but need some extra space? Uh, I guess this solves both those problems. Or just makes you look crazy...

Free live music

I've been digging this site lately. You can download tons of live music, and I love live music. It has a certain authenticity you can't get off the album. Anyways, I downloaded a great Mason Jennings show from August 5th, 2001 at the 400 Club in Minneapolis. It's never the greatest quality, but the songs played are those you don't hear much. So here are a few... (btw, I have no permission to transfer these to .mp3 or post them here. credit to unknown taper.)



Oh, and happy New Year :)
