Latest Survival

Well Hurricane Katrina hit Louisiana Yesterday and made its way into Nashville Late last night... obviously its not a Hurricane anymore... but wow it dropped some rain and whipped the wind around like crazy. Around my place no excitement really... The tree line stayed intact... and even the trashcan didnt blow over in the driveway... but... there was lots of "debris" blown around and the rocking chair and plants on the porch got toppled over. There was no interuption in power for me... but some 6000+ in Nashville lost power...


The pictures from NewOrleans... and Alabama/Mississippi are incredible. It seems that global warming might have taken its toll on the earths weather movements. Jenny and Travis lost power for a short time in Birmingham... but was back on quickly thereafter.

I was listening to the radio and a guy called in and said the Barometer was at ZERO. Then they said that was because the EYE OF THE HURRICANE had hit nashville... The eye is complete calm... and im sure if actually in a hurricane would so very eerie... Well so far... everything has held together here. Hope everyone else is enjoying their sunshine... :)

Survival!

Just survived a weekend with Jenny, Travis, and Dixie visiting. We went shopping most of the day on Saturday then played a few tourneys of Texas Hold-Em on Saturday night... I finished 3rd in the first and 1st in the second. Jenny got 2nd place both times... Travis thinks he knows what Jenny is doing and seems she constantly has his number. Tis quite funny to watch. They left early on Sunday morning and are back in Birmingham... That was about all the excitement that went on.

Do you Remember?


Do you Remember? Its been almost 20 years ago.... The Chicago Bears... and the hilarious Super Bowl Shuffle. "We are the Bears shufflin' crew.... shufflin' on down doing it for you!" By far the funniest thing every released! All the players dancing and singing... and even to a catchy song. I still can't belive that got the late great Walter Payton AKA Sweetness to do his song and dance too... If you haven't heard it you need to find it.

Tony Stewart


What an awesome Nascar Race... Tony Stewart finally won at Indy.... His "home track"--- It was a great celebration and awesome for the whole team to climb the fence and they even brought out a ladder. He finally won it.. and is not the leader in the Chase for the Nextel Cup.

Sunday

Well... It was nice to turn on the tube this afternoon and see the Nascar race in high definition. Wow its just an unbelievable picture. I can't wait until all stations are mandated to prodcast in high-def. If you haven't watched high def... you are so missing out. The colors are so bright and picture is so clear. Go get you a high def tv!!!!

Florida Pic Update




Here is a picture from the trip to Florida back in May. Its a shot of me and Faith. She doesn't look as red as I do. I got some good sun touring Disney and all the parks down there. Not to mention them all running me ragged, but it was a super duper blast!!!

Saturday

Well its almost the end of Saturday. Its been a very rough day. I didn't sleep much at all. I have had this killer headache all day. It finally lighted up around 9pm. Maybe, because I was watching Nascar, but I dont see how loud racecars could make a headache GO AWAY. Nothing much exciting happening today. I have done some laundry and pretty much been a couch potato besides that. That headache pretty much shot any energy I had out of me. I hope I dont start have migrain headaches.

This morning was the first NFL game of the year... all be it in Tokyo... but I did watch most of it. Its great that football season is starting up. I plan to try to go to a few HighSchool football games this year as well as Titan games. I think the Titans team is very intriguing this season. There are almost 50 players with under 2 years of experience trying to make the team right now. Hard to believe, but just 6 days til the Titans first pre-season game. Well thats it catch u later.
