8:42 - Ok, so I'm late. The warrior princess required much snuggling to nod off. So what, it's a nothing-nothing tie. Joe's in the press box peeing in a bag. The Buckeyes have no D-Line and Beanie's got 12 Nitany Lions on him at all times. This should be fun.
8:47 - It's a catch. A shitty throw, but a catch.
8:57 - By the skin our our freakin' teeth. Fuck, the two. Christ.
9:01 - Goodness. I don't think anyone saw that one coming. Please God don't let him scramble out of the endzone. Christ on a CRUTCH!
9:04 - And then he remembers he's a freshman.
9:08 - PSU's O-Line is a bit chippy. I think we might see a flag or at least a guy carried out on a stretcher before this one is over.
Non-game related post - it's blowing liike a freakin' hurricane up here! I sealed about half the windows in this house with the doublestick tape and plastic and a hair dryer. Today I fixed the front door by lowering the strikeplate (actually installing one) by cutting down an eighth of an inch so it would fit. Now that fucker is tight and the wind don't blow through!
9:12 - How the fuck is he that wide open? Do we only have 10 guys out there?
9:17 - Fuck Penn State, Fuck JoePa and fuck every lion on earth.
9:21 - I know they are keyng on him, but Jesu Christe, run some fucking play-action to Beanie for fuck's sake! Sweater Vest? You hear me? Hit the fucking meth pipe, Jimbo.
9:24 - O-Line? What O-Line?
9:26 - I freakin' LOVE Robiskie!!!
9:28 - Nice kick. All due to a freakin unbelieveable catch by #80.
Non-game related halftime rant - I want to carry a fucking gun. I would have killed two people today on the road and the world would be better for my having done so.
1) Idiot talking on his cell phone rolls his SUV out of the gas station onto the rainslicked road at dusk without even looking causing me and a driver coming from the other direction to lock up our brakes, hit our horns and slide sideways to avoid hitting him or each other. He was completely oblivious and continued on his merry way gabbing thw whole time.
2) Later on a two-lane highway with the speed limit 55 mph - again still raining cats and dogs and wind blowing my little Civic about like a cork in a jacuzzi - I'm stuck behind a woman who seems content to barel along at about 39 mph. Low and beyond the highway gods grant me a broken yellow lone and a narrow window in the oncoming trafic to pass. I crank it up and start to pull around her on the wet road - mindful of the puddles and the Civic's tendency towards hydroplaning - as I edge past her and reaize it's going to be tight amazingly enough she speeds up! With me heading into oncoming motherfucking traffic she speeds up! Clearly I won't make it, so I back off - AND SHE SLOWS DOWN!!!! She evidently wants me dead. Had I not had the girls with me, I would have driven her off the road and beaten her to death. No jury on earth would have convicted me. None.
All that for a trip that failed when we missed the turn-off for Burlington Coat Factory. Fuck. Time to use the damn GPS that Easy-E and Tom Tom Club gave us. And now for some scotch and a return to the game.
LOL! The CMA's are on my Mom's B-day. How appropos.
9:58 - Nice fucking stop, boys! And here we go from the shadow of our goal posts. Again.
10:04 - Another unreal catch from Robiskie and they're gonna take it away the fucking zebra suited Penn State alumni. Fuck! They couldn't bring themselves to fuck him. Wonders never cease.
10:08 - Everyone on earth knew it was going to Beanie. Fucking Kalahari Bushmen clicked, "It's going to Beanie." Fucking Big Ten ball. And three points.
10:24 - Jim Tressell gets excited when things are gloing well. Watch him. He gets pumped on good plays but is calm after bad ones. You could throw a pick six that lost the game and he would nod his head pat you on the butt and say, "We'll get 'em next time." Throw the TD, and he'll jum p up and down and kiss you full on the lips, but he's calm when the chips are down. That's a huge key to his success. The team takes his demeanor in that sense. They don't get freaked out when things go bad. Granted, sometimes you want a little emotion when it's going down the drain, but...it's who he is.
Pryor's gonna run this thing out.
10:30 - Or he's going to fumble the game away.
10:37 - Fuck.
10:40 - Are you fucking kidding me????? Ok, why should this possession be different than any other? Start it from the 8.
10:44 - Game Over. Jim has a confidence in the D that I do not share. It's OVAH.
11:04 - We suck and they are not much better.
Nighty night.

Things from an iPod
Romeo and Juliet by Dire Starits just came up on shuffle. It's 1991 again and I am torn between the love of my life and my hatred of myself. Happiness. Who said I deserve it and why? I can hear that laugh. Watch that crooked smile and the dark curls bouncing. I needed her like Obama needs an unprecedented turnout among the young and the black. I would have done anything for her and did do almost anything to her. But in the end I hated myself more than I loved her and destroyed it because that was what I did back then.
"How many of my friends have you slept with?"
"All of them."

A blessing and a curse
I don't really have anything to say, but felt like I should take a moment and write something here since there might be one or two people who still check this out - aside of course from the folks who find me while looking for Sunny Lane, Sunny Becca Mann, Anna Nicole or Traci Lords.
What to say? Dunno. With every word offering the enterprising internet stalker the opportunity for mayhem, it rather limits one's choices.
The warrior princess grows larger and stronger every day.
Istanbul (not Constantinople) draws closer.
Micromanagers make everyone unhappy. Especially when they are relations.
Money's tight.
The election looks to be a coronation.
A skunk scared the Mrs. last night.
At least the DBTs still rock.

Death to Ignorant Straphangers
WTF is it with some people on the subway? It's the subway. No one has much personal space, but using your bags as a means to try to buy more space on a crowded train just pisses people off.
Are they completely ignorant of the way their actions effect others or do they just not care? Probably the latter.
I moved three times this morning to get some guy's briefcase out of the small of my back and it followed every time. I'm not treally one for conversing on the train, but I had to ask, "Excuse me, could you not push your briefcase into my back, please?" He smiled and shrugged and made no attempt to move it.
At the next stop when he was pushing to get out, I just could not get out of his way in time for him to exit the train.
I smiled and shrugged.

Random thoughts on the election
I can't tell if Mac's toast. The polls still have him within spitting distance, so there's a chance that he could still pull this off. Not much, but a chance. But how acurate are the polls? If they are oversampling Democrats to the extent I saw in some demographics, it's even closer. However, if the Democrats manage the kind of turnout they are promising - be it real or Chicago-style - again, Mac's toast.
Colin's endorsement means so much. It says, "He won't completely fuck us." Granted it's the same voice that said, "Saddam has WMDs here, here and here." So how much is it worth?
A Democrat in the White House, a Democrat majority in both houses of Congress and at least two Supremes set to retire. Every level of the judiciary stacked with judges who prefer Lenin to Lennon. Control of the banking industry in DC. Yeah, we're fucked.
But a part of me says, "Good." The American people get the leadership they deserve and if they are so stupid as to pick Obama, good. Let them see what 20 years of socialism (he'll only get 4 years if he's lucky, but with this kinda majority, the policies he sets up will far outlast him) is like.
Another part of me says that for the same reasons I supported and still support the Iraq war, that this is necessary: completely blow things up.
Bring on the totalitarianism that almost always follows this kind of socialist movement. Let people see what oppression really looks like. Wait until a few people on the left get a feel for the real Obama after they make one too many critical comments (i.e. one).
The MSM will do one of two things:
1) Say absolutely nothing critical at all for fear of looking like morons for having unabashedly stuffed their collective heads up Barry's ass.
2) Realize just how obvious their bias was and try to regain some small semblance of objectivity in the public eye by being hyper critical of every move by Lord Obama.
Either way, I have less and less interest in politics and more and more interest in my baby.

Pick Six Ben and the Toothless D
8:54 - What in the wide wide world of sports is a'goin' on out there? And did I
just see that Selma Blair is gonna be in a new series on NBC? Fuck football, gimme Selma!
8:59 - Awfully chippy out there tonight as Ben splits the distance between Santonio and Hines. But he redeems himself for the moment with that throw to Hines who is my wife's favorite player as he's half Korean. Must get scotch to go with the Percocet.
9:11 - A field goal? That'll put the fear of God into 'em!
9:19 - Ok. That touchdown throw was freakin beautiful. Which will make the next stupid thing he does that much more infuriating!
9:33 - No one saw that run coming. No one.
9:41 - I would pay to see the cast of House at a Steelers game just to prove Epps and Tomlin are not one.
9:53 - Another fucking field goal. Blowing them out, huh? Seems the non-recession recession is hitting even the chain restaurants. Outback's commercial has their combos starting at $9.99. I've only been to Outback once, but the Mrs. commented earlier on a comercial for Applebee's with lower prices. None of them really effect me because I won't be eating out until late 2014 or so.
10:18 - That's it, Mewelde, don't run, just juke. Maybe they'll all just run past you and you'll have a clear shot to the end zone.
10:22 - So holding is not a penalty anymore? C'mon, he fucking tackled him and no call?
10:36 - Coverage? We don't need no steenking coverage.
10:39 - Holy shit! Mr. Madonna's new movie looks so much like every single other Mr. Madonna movie to the point that watching the game with the sound off I said, "Oh look another Mr. Madonna movie."
10:42 - Way to allow them to take the lead, Ryan. Nice one there, buddy. Was it worth it? You didn't even fucking take him out of the game. You didn't even take him out for a fucking series, you pussy. All you did was allow them the opportunity to score a TD as opposed to a FG, you asshole.
10:51 - I'm seeing a failed two-point conversion in our future.
10:56 - FUCK YOU! YOU CAN'T CALL THAT!!!! The ball was still in his hand!!!
10:59 - So it's 11 vs. 16, huh? Well, fuck you and Goodell, you piece of shit striped cocksuckers. We're gonna fuck your mothers while we make you eat our shit and then shit out your shit which is made up of our shit that we made you eat!
11:04 - YOU MOTHERFUCKING PIECE OF SHIT ASSHOLE BASTERD FUCKWAD SON OF A WHORE REF!!! I hope you get hit in the head with a Farve pass later this season you cheating cocksucker!
11:07 - No roughing there, huh? Fuck you, striped bastards! Hines fucking Ward, ladies and gentlemen! Ben earns a pass tonight if he doesn't fuck up from here on out.
11:22 - What, Jack? Ref couldn't give you the whole game? Are you kidding me? They called him down??? If this game isn't looked at again and again by the front office, the NFL is a joke. Hear me Roger, the NFL is a fucking joke!
11:25 - Eat shit and die, Jacksonville and you too you fucking cheating refs! We still won.
