snowflakes in the air

when i went to the post office today, there was some snowflakes in the air. it definitely feels like December now.

everyone should check their mailboxes in the next few days. either a card or a mysterious envelope could be in there. if you didn't get one and feel you should have, send me an email with your mailing address. it's always possible i missed someone.

i listened to the latest Jim Norton & Sam Roberts podcast today. i highly recommend it. you can find it by going here: https://soundcloud.com/jimandsamshow/episode-003-laura-jane-grace-gary-busey

Total Divas was pretty funny last night.

NXT was pretty good last night. i could always watch Nakamura and Samoa Joe wrestle.

Lucha Underground was really good last night. i really enjoyed the chaos.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be Vice News Tonight and Life in Pieces.

the first half of the Manchester United game today put me to sleep. thankfully, the second half was better. i always felt like whenever Henrikh Mkhitaryan was going to score his first goal for United, it was going to be spectacular. today, i was finally right. it was a beauty. Zlatan Ibrahimovic scored late to make it 2-0. the win was enough to get United through to the knockout round in the Europa League. plus, it was their first win on the road in Europe in ages it seems like. they have a tough one this weekend in the Premier League against Tottenham, so i will definitely enjoy this one tonight.

the New York Rangers play tonight in Winnipeg. i will probably watch a little of that.

i'll probably also check out the NFL game tonight between Oakland and Kansas City.

i got myself a Christmas gift today. i wasn't going to turn down an autographed Ben Harper poster at 50% off.

i still haven't got that fucking poem out of my head yet. i'll try to make the drinks a little stronger tonight. that tends to get the engine going these days.

took mom out for a ride today. she needed to get some cash out of the ATM. on our way back, we saw the guy who farmed our land raking some leaves. i pulled over and put down mom's window. thankfully, it wasn't too fucking cold. he's doing well. mom always wanted to be able to sell the farm to him and his family, but it never worked out. we drove past the old farm on the way back home. i'm surprised there are any trees left.

that's all for me today kids. enjoy the little poem in the music titles.

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...

and your whatever the fuck i wanted you to see video of the day:

i should have just kept sleeping

so the Ohio State game ended late last night and i knew it would be just 5 or so hours before Manchester United played in the morning. i tried to get a quick nap in, but really only got portions of sleep that added up to around 2 1/2 hours. judging from the game, i should have just kept sleeping and not even bothered. more on that later.

i'll start with the only good thing that happened yesterday, Ohio State going to Oklahoma and beating the shit out of them. the final score was 45-24, though if the officials weren't blind, it would have been 45-17. how the fuck does someone drop the ball before crossing the goal line and none of the officials on or in the replay booth fucking see it? oh, that's right, Big 12 officials. enough said. Ohio State ran for nearly 300 yards last night. as i told my mother, that's how you emasculate a team. plus, Noah Brown had his coming out party with probably the catch of the year.

all in all, even with the long ass weather delay, it was an excellent win. maybe Oklahoma's backup QB will think twice before he calls another team's defense basic ever again.

always fun to watch a young white kid learn a hard lesson.

the New York Yankees pissed away another lead yesterday and lost again to Boston, 6-5. they basically have given up all the ground they made during the 7 game winning streak. they will try to avoid the sweep tonight, but i won't be watching.

team USA came out flat as fuck to start the World Cup of Hockey yesterday. they lost to Europe 3-0. i didn't bother to watch the third period at all. they next play Canada, who beat the Czech Republic 6-0 last night. i suppose Tuesday is going to be either the game that changes the fortunes of team USA or show everyone why they should have never hired Torts to be the damn coach.

ROH was excellent last night.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be Power, Ballers, Vice Principals, Ray Donovan, Masters of Sex and The Strain.

so i got up this morning hoping that Manchester United could get me off to a good day. knowing that they hadn't lost at Watford for 3 decades, i had high hopes. fuck me. once again, some shitty officiating played a role today, but also did just a horrible mix of players. Manchester United lost 3-1. honestly, there's a handful of fuckers that i wish would never play for the club again, but i know that's not going to happen. that's 3 losses in a row for The Special One. that hasn't happened to him since 2002. hopefully this fucking slump ends soon.

the New Orleans Saints play at the New York Giants today. i figure it's going to take a fucking miracle for the Saints to win. i wish i knew prayer actually worked.

my fantasy football teams are both projected to lose. i don't think i have started off a fantasy football season 0-2 in a long damn time.

hopefully all the damn rain is out of the area now. i could use a day where i'm not in constant pain.

i hope everyone had a good Saturday. hopefully your Sunday will be even better.

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...
