A touch of bad luck -- Saturday's fun looks like a one-time deal. The little jingle in the "this is not an active number" song did nothing to raise my spirits. Not quite sure what level that falls in on the "punch to the stomach" rankings. I suppose this will be forgotten by next week. But too bad, she was a keeper...
Here's a question -- if you were going to give someone a fake number, why would you put your first AND last name on there along with it? Baffling.
My friend Neal Boling at work has invested in a
PlayStation2. A smart move if you ask me. It allows him and his wife Meg to watch DVD's in their bedroom, not to mention the gameplay capabilities it brings. I need to give him a few tips on
Madden 2003 though -- he told me Meg has been beating him in it. That just can't happen.
How long before Hollywood and TV execs realize that the "reality" TV craze peaked about two years ago? Enough's enough already.
The NFL conference finals for this Sunday should be exciting. I'm pulling for the road teams in both games (Tampa and Nashville). I have a "Double Trouble" poster hanging on my desk at work at Channel 10 of Andre Dyson & Kevin Dyson. I joked at work this morning that if it is the Titans and Bucs in the Super Bowl, I'll come in and find Andre Dyson ripped into five pieces on my desk. If that happens, I might have to take the Chick-Fil-A cow hostage as retribution. Just as long as they leave the Aflac duck alone. That was passed down to me by Amy Barnett -- she got it as a promotional deal from her station in Macon, GA. You squeeze the duck and it goes AFLAC! Funny stuff. And I suppose my Peyton Manning Starting Lineup figure is safe, with the Colts out of the playoffs and all...
