Horror Valley

Date: Sat, Nov 12, 2011

The summer after my sophomore year I stayed at Penn State to edit the summer sports section of The Daily Collegian. From May till early June there was an inter-session when the paper didn’t publish, and I lived at the Alexander Court apartments on Beaver Avenue and took a SpeechCom class. Campus was nearly deserted,...

Face Off

Date: Mon, Oct 10, 2011

Did some multi-tasking last night–I got my ironing done for the week while watching ”Face Off”, the season finale of Breaking Bad. Suffice to say the latter was more interesting that the former and since I don’t have anyone to TALK TO about it I’ll just scribble a few thoughts and observations for yinz to peruse. I...

Over Before it Begins?

Date: Fri, Aug 12, 2011

Was it really that long ago, February 16th, when Arsenal out-Barçaed Barcelona to defeat the best team in the world? Andrei Arshavin’s go-ahead goal seemed to signify great things ahead for my Gunners. An upcoming date with Birmingham in the Carling Cup final promised to land Arsenal it’s first trophy since 2005. Not an especially...

A Hunting I Will Go

Date: Mon, Jun 6, 2011

It’s been a good long time since I last looked for a job. When I got laid off five years ago I was in the middle of selling my house and barely had time to move into my apartment before I got my poker blogging break. When I got laid off two years before that...

I Didn’t Shoot a Man in Reno

Date: Wed, May 25, 2011

As you might expect I don’t follow the poker scene as closely as I once did, and it was only today that I learned that Gary DeBernardi won the Nevada State Poker Championship. And that was great news to hear, as “Debo” is as good a guy as you’ll ever meet, which I did back...

Colors

Date: Fri, Apr 15, 2011

In an effort to get back to writing on my damned blog I’m trying to write about subjects I’m either passionate about or that I can at least fake passion for. Those of you who know me that I love my sports teams–to the world I present a calm and patient exterior, but put me...

Why The Steelers Will Win Today. Or Not.

Date: Sun, Jan 23, 2011

If one looks at today’s Jets-Steelers AFC title game it would appear that, karmically speaking, this one will go to the Jets. They are this year’s Team of Destiny, the six-seed who went on the road and sent Peyton Manning and Tom Brady home early. They’ve recovered from a humiliating prime-time blowout to regain their [...]

The Best of Times, The Worst of Times

Date: Fri, Dec 17, 2010

I had a nervous breakdown the other night. Not a bad nervous breakdown, oh no. It wasn’t one of those shrieking, straitjackety, “Don’t tase me ‘bro!” meltdowns, nothing like that. Just blew a mental gasket and it had me frazzled for a couple of hours. The evening started innocuously enough–I picked up my brother- and [...]

One Week In

Date: Fri, Jul 9, 2010

Every morning in Vegas I’ve woken up at 7AM, it hasn’t mattered if I went to bed before midnight or at 3AM. Today I rolled out of bed, performed the tasks necessary to move about in society, and walked into the Amazon Room around nine. There was one other person there, a security guard all [...]

Goin’ to the Grubers and I’m/Gonna Get Married…

Date: Thu, May 6, 2010

Not a lot of time so: Last Thursday we got the OK to close on our house, and we did so on Friday. We thought it wouldn’t be until the end of May when we closed. 48 hours later we had the house. Lindsay’s mom has been fighting cancer and on Sunday we got the sad news [...]

The Roethlisberger Conundrum

Date: Fri, Apr 16, 2010

When I was in G-Vegas for the Mastodon Weekend we were sitting at the bar (natch) and ESPN had brief segment about the NFL Draft. There was talk about where Jimmy Clausen would go, if perhaps the Redskins would reach for him at #4. I turned to BG and said, “This is why having your [...]

Catchup

Date: Tue, Apr 6, 2010

I really, really need to start posting again. I tell myself this just about every day. And yet. Anyway, maybe if I break the ice here I’ll get back in the swing of things. A quick update: So the wedding date is set and the bid on the house has been accepted. The underwriters are making [...]
