sometimes the pills stop working

so today is the second day in a row my neck feels like shit. i was hoping the pill i take for the pinched nerve in my neck 3 times a day would work last night when i added a little heat on my neck. no luck. i basically had to drink alcohol last night to sleep at all. less than 5 measly hours. needless to say, i'm not going to the basketball game today.

the New York Rangers won last night in Buffalo, 6-2.

NJPW was pretty good last night.

WOW was good last night.

Real Time with Bill Maher was excellent last night.

2 Dope Queens was really good last night.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be Saturday Night Live and ROH. i'll probably watch the NBA All-Star Saturday Night events for most of the night (3 point contest, dunk contest, etc.)

the Dayton Flyers play today at home against VCU. Dayton is going to be missing Trey Landers, who hurt his shoulder in practice this week. i'll watch the game from home, but i figure VCU will probably win.

i hope everyone has a great Saturday. i'm going to go take a hot ass shower, see if that helps my neck at all.

until tomorrow kids...

Dos copas y recuerdo todos los horrores de mi infancia.

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:

should i go out and shovel?

i believe we got a good 3 to 4 inches of snow last night. i don't really feel like going out and shoveling this morning or afternoon for that matter. so, i'm really hoping one of the neighbors and his kids feel like doing a good deed today.

when the USA got down 2-0 to Canada yesterday at the World Juniors, i was not happy. when they were down 3-1 after two periods, i was not happy. but midway through the third period, the USA finally started to play their way. they got the score even at 3 by the end of regulation. nothing happened in OT, so it was off to the shootout. when the first two guys scored for the USA, i felt like i could finally breathe. no one from Canada scored in the shootout so the USA won the game 4-3. it's a pretty big win, but they will need to defeat Finland tomorrow to get the easier draw in the quarterfinals.

Ohio State smothered USC on defense last night, causing 4 turnovers and 8 sacks. that's a good way to win. USC had nearly 200 more yards than Ohio State but could only score 7 points. that's as many points as Ohio State's defense scored. Ohio State won the Cotton Bowl 24-7. it was the final game of J.T. Barrett's Ohio State career. i believe he has every damn record for a QB in Big Ten history now.

NJPW last night was the 60 minute draw between Okada and Omega. i believe i now have all 3 matches of their epic trilogy on the DVR.

the New York Rangers lost in a shootout last night at Detroit, 3-2. at least they got a damn point out of the game. every single fucking point matters now in the season. their next game will be outdoors on New Year's Day against Buffalo.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be ROH.

Manchester United plays in a little bit at home against Southampton. i'm really hoping the boys can get back to winning.

the Dayton Flyers start their A-10 season on the road today at Duquesne. i have no idea what to expect. Dayton should win today, but i wouldn't be surprised if they lost either.

i'm sure i'll probably watch some other football and basketball games today as well.

i ended up typing up 5 poems yesterday. that puts the number at 40 for this month. that's a nice round number to end on. i'll probably send out some poems the first week of January.

that's all for me kids. i hope everyone enjoys their Saturday. hopefully you're not buried in snow.

por supuesto, podrías tomar otra bebida

hello November

the drive to my sister's new house was much better than the drive home. they had 70 West down to one lane for a good 7 or 8 miles i think. nothing like being on the highway and crawling along at 10 mph.

my sister's Halloween party was pretty good. she lives across the street from her close friends from college, so it was a pretty laid back affair. she didn't have many kids come to the door, which i think she liked. she's in her cord cutting mode, so i hooked up some ESPN on her television for free. it was funny, when the old men of the group got back from helping the kids around, i think they appreciated that i had some sports on. i really like my sister's new home. i figure it won't be too long until she has it the way she wants it. i think we'll be back up there for Christmas. here's some photos from yesterday:

Manchester United won yesterday over Benfica, 2-0. i didn't see any of the game, but i did enjoy the alcohol. i believe they need just 1 point over their next 2 games to advance in the Champions League.

the New York Rangers scored 4 goals in the 3rd period last night to come from behind to beat Las Vegas, 6-4. of course, i don't watch and they score goals. figures.

Smackdown was pretty good last night.

205 Live was pretty good as well.

The Jim Jefferies Show was fucking hilarious last night.

Drop the Mic was pretty damn good last night.

The Voice was basically just a recap of the season so far last night. the knockouts start back up next week.

American Horror Story was fucking brilliant last night. i think there's just two episodes left for this season. i can't wait.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be Vice News Tonight, You're the Worst and Total Divas. i'll watch NXT sometime tonight on WWE Network.

i knew nothing about the terrorist attack yesterday in NYC until i got to my sister's house. i don't think many people understand that people do become radicalized while they are here. they don't always come here with the intent to do this shit. perhaps, if the police and federal officials did a better job of eliminating hate in this country, there wouldn't be as much of this shit. i'm happy they didn't kill the fucker though. perhaps they will actually get some information out of him.

i have absolutely no clue when i'll be on here tomorrow. mom has her next round of injections into her back in the morning.

i hope everyone had a fun Halloween. enjoy the candy and the future diagnosis of diabetes.
