the game

being a guy who has lived in the state of Ohio his entire life, today is one of those days that takes me back to when i was a child. the importance of it was made very simply to me. you root for Ohio State or you can find somewhere else to live. now, part of that is a hindsight discussion for another day, but i learned very early that Ohio State vs. the team up north is a matter of life and death, love and hate. and now that i'm 40 and hate nearly everything in that state up north, i understand. this is a day that either brings immense joy or ruins part of your whole god damn life. and i wouldn't have it any other way.

the New York Rangers bounced back yesterday and defeated the Flyers 3-2. The King had 40 saves and looked like he had put the Pittsburgh debacle behind him. they play again on Sunday against Ottawa.

the Dayton Flyers started off much better last night and found a rhythm. now, the defense still has miles to go before they can get to where they need to be, but i'll gladly take a team than can shoot the 3. Dayton defeated Portland last night 84-74. they play tomorrow afternoon against New Mexico in the 5th place game.

i wrote 6 poems last night. i typed them up right after i wrote them. always nice to get that all done in under 60 minutes. i really liked some of the poems. i think i'm going to try to get another round of submissions out before the end of the month.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be ROH.

the rest of today basically depends on what Ohio State does. a win, and i'll be a happy motherfucker for the rest of the day. a loss, and i will be your worst nightmare version of me.

i'm going to try to be on here in the morning tomorrow. Sunday is a bit of a clusterfuck seeing that Manchester United, the New Orleans Saints and Dayton Flyers are all playing right around the same time tomorrow. though i am looking forward to the possibility of drinking the rest of the day away after the games.

i hope everyone has a wonderful Saturday. go support your favorite small business. and remember to only fuck the ones that cough.

be well. be creative. be cool. be quick to send me CASH, panties, hate mail, love letters, broken promises and dirty pennies from heaven.

peace and chicken grease...
