That facebook thingy

I have missed my friends and family for a long time now and I would call various people when I first got here and complain and they would listen and comment on how bad it was there. The last person I talked to before moving to Ohio was Yameah and he said good luck, Godspeed and do what you gotta do. Well I did. Now I have found facebook and it is like stepping back to the past. I feel like it is a class reunion with people you actually liked. One friend married a girl I knew at another school 2 years before. I would have never put them together. I found my best friend from kindergarten, dudes from high school and friends from old jobs. Now if I could get them all together for a BBq, I would be set. Heck, I even found my Great aunt in Miami and she still talks to me. I like it alot better than myspace because it is more mature and less porno. So if'n you wanna check out the master of the Casa de loco, go to facebook and look up lackoftaste and see who we both know.
I keeps it real.

Football & no more A/C

Just a short note to tell you about the weather. It is perfect, what I would call Indian Summer. 55 degrees last night, windows open, odd critters making freaky sounds outside my window and no humidity. That means it is almost time for football. I am ready for High School, College and pro ball. If you know of a pee-wee game I'll go to that too. I just really like football. Yes, I played in high school and yes, I have a fantasy league, two infact. I am one of those guys.
I had one leagues draft at work last Sunday and my other league is this weekend. The work draft was kinda business like. There weren't any drinkers there and only one bowl of chips and some really good buffalo chicken dip. It took 2 1/2 hours. The other draft will start at 6:30 ish in the morning with polish breakfast, move on to golf at 7am, poker at noon and the draft starts at 4 in the afternoon. There will be lots of food and some poor decisions made due to the amount of polish breakfast beveradges, golf beverages and poker beverages.
I will be BBqing pork shoulder until about 3 pm. I think it will be an advantage in my favor to make a grand entrance and not talk too much to anyone prior to the draft. You see, I have the first pick and I do not want to let anyone know who I am picking. It is not a huge surprise as there are only 2 or 3 people that are worthy of a first pick. I am thinking about trading because of the pressure of drafting someone who might get hurt or retire mid season. Ohhhhh the fake pressure of drafting my fake players to go on my fake team to play fake game and possibly go to the fake Super Bowl to win real money. The draft is one of the highlights of my year.
I told you I was one of those guys.
