March Madness Baby!!!

March Madness Baby!!!

It's that time of year, where billions of productivity are lost across the country during March Madness...I will be inviting friends and family to a bracket challenge, with the obvious requirement that everyone picks Baylor for at least a first round win. Let's say the winner gets a 6-pack of their requested brew mailed to them by all participants. Chris, you can invite your pals as well. Hopefully we can get a good showing. The only question is do we use Yahoo or ESPN? More to follow once selection Sunday comes around. Hope the good ol' bears can pull a few wins in the Big 12 tourney and increase their seeding. Don't forget that one of Notre Dame's losses this year came at the hands of the mighty bears.

Snow in Temple

Woke up to snow this am at 4:30 am...yes that's right, some of us work at early hours unlike the rest of my slacker family. Had 1-2 inches on the ground, put on my skis and skied around my yard for a few minutes before heading into work. Set a new gall bladder rcord this morning as well, 22 minutes. Awesome. Get back to work big bro slacker, quit rubbing it in about the fresh snow and excellent skiing.

Obama steals from Bob the Builder

From a CNN article today about Billary's wins in Texas ad Ohio, a blurb about Obama speaking to a crowd to maintain their fervor:

Speaking in San Antonio, Texas, Obama told supporters that he expects to hold a similar lead over Clinton after Tuesday's races to the one he held before.

"We know this -- no matter what happens tonight, we have nearly the same delegate lead we had this morning and we are on the way to winning this nomination," he said to cheers and chants of his trademark phrase, "Yes we can."

Obama's trademark phrase? Please! Bob the Builder has been using this for years! I sure hope HIT entertainment is getting some compensation for this.

Back from Vail

We had a great ski trip to Vail!

7 guys, lots of skiing and beer. 7" of fresh on the last day after spring skiing the day before made for a top notch finish. Top notch!

Cliffs on Dragon's Teeth, fresh tracks in Outer Mongolia, the trees of Blue Sky. We hit every bowl and side of the mountain(s). No bad spills, so maybe we didn't ski hard enough, except for the Bruised Plum, who took it on the chin for everyone's entertainment, performing with great skill the "Slide for Life" down Pepi's Face. We are forever in debt.

Missed the T-dog. We needed an 8th.

Happy Last VA Week!

So tell us how you feel about the final four and March Madness???

Biggest Upset of Our Time

I cannot begin to tell everyone how happy I was to watch the Patriots loses the Super Bowl. They cheated at the beginning of the year, yet every single analyst forgives them. Bill Belicheck is a complete tool, yet everyone praises his genius. Did anyone even notice how he walked off the field before the last second ran off the clock? Does anyone want to point out how sore of losers they were after the game? What poetic justice that they make it to the final game of the season after going 18-0, and they lose the game at the last second to a team no one expected to even be in the Super Bowl. I am glad someone put the Pats and arrogant Tom Brady in their rightful place. What a great game.
