I just got back from my first yearly condo board meeting with the general populace. I use the words "general populace" and I mean it to sound like prison. Two of the guys needed to be in prison. Shouting, standing, pointing, etc. It was like a wrestling match. I wanted to taser them. Most of the people had good, or at least reasonable ideas. We're getting two new board members, and possibly two alternates. Two of the women coming in like to wear bikinis, so I welcome my new bikini wearing oppressors.

Actually, since I am on the board, I guess I have been their oppressors until now. Where are my perks I ask you? I wanted to re-enact the Jabba and Princess Leia scene where they would be chained to me in skimpy solid gold bikinis.

I pre-ordered the newest Star Wars Rogue Squadron game for GameCube and got a bonus disc that had the original 1982 Star Wars game from the arcade. I'm sure everyone remembers it... It had vector graphics and the ships looked like oragami. In other words, it was awesome, and now I can play it in my living room. Hooray for me.

This was just about the best possible sports weekend possible. Not only did the Browns manage to play in just about the most boring game ever, but they also prevented my starting fantasy QB (Manning) from doing anything at all... strike that, he did get me a whole 1.6 points. What I should do is set my starting lineup, and then on Sunday morning I should switch out everyone and put in my bench. Holcomb looked like crap, but amazingly enough I didn't hear the idiot fans booing. Hmm. Purdue blew it against Bowling Green. Notre Dame and Ohio State both lucked out AGAIN.

I wanted to believe the hype, but I never really did. Ryan tried in vain to get me to believe that Purdue had a great shot at winning the Big 10 this year. I (as I normally do) expected the worst. I even stated that I could see Purdue losing 6 games this year. Well, I hope I'm wrong, but this schedule looks much tougher now that they've lost to Bowling Green.

I'm sad to say, but the time has come for my organization and Ms. Angie Everhart to seperate. She has been a solid and productive member of my team for nearly 10 years, but with the present economic times, and our failure to come to an agreement on future compensation, we must part ways. I wish her the best in her future endeavors.
Wow! What a fantastic pre-game kickoff to the NFL season. I'm blown away.

I couldn't stand watching that piece of crap for more than 2 minutes. It should've been called the NFL Lip Sync Special.

I don't know why, but I'm not particulary excited about the upcoming NFL season. I'm much more interested in college football at this point. Maybe it's because my stupid fantasy team is about the equivalent of the Browns.

Impending doom? Only if you think 2014 is impending.

The BBC is running an article about the newest Near Earth Object in this article. They mention that it has the possibility of vaporizing a continent in 2014.

NASA has their own take on the whole situation.

Following my own theory before... I say we just bomb it. Bomb it until it can be bombed no longer. And then light it on fire.

If you've never seen the Blue Angels in person (and I don't think any of you have) then you have no idea how amazing it is to watch a jet going 500 MPH + going due West apply a high G thrust vectored turn and be due South in less than 1 second. Sure the pilots feel over 7 G's for that amount of time, but it's quite amazing to watch. The best way to desribe it is like a power slide in the sky.
