Vegas ‘07 Plans

No Comments »

Well it looks like I’ll be joining everybody in vegas. This week I’ll be purchasing my tickets from lovely DC to Las Vegas on Virgin America. I’ve been looking forward to trying this airline out and I’m even willing to sacrifice a longer trip with a layover in San Francisco to do it! As far as accomodations, they haven’t been finalized yet. I do plan on being towards the north end of the strip with the rest of the degenerates so that it won’t be far to stagger back from the Geisha Bar, et al. I’m really looking forward to the tourney at the Venetian as I enjoyed playing in their Deep Stack Extravaganza last time I was in town.Looking forward to seeing everybody there!

UPDATE: Well after taking a long look at the finances, what with a wedding to plan, Vegas is not going to happen this time around. Especially since I really should be taking some of my free time to go visit family. So that’s what I’m going to do. See you all next summer instead!

Fantasy Football Sucks

No Comments »

Well so far this year my fantasy team has been horrible. The sad thing is that I actually made my picks live and was quite happy with my team at the time. Boy was I wrong. With only a single win to my name I am in next to last place in my league. I’ve started the wrong people the wrong week, released people that were underperforming only to have them break out the next week, and have had injuries to my starting running back and tight end. Let’s just hope that I can get back on track this week and finish at least close to .500.


Golf Scoring Program

I’ve gotten a program for my Mac to track my golf progress and calculate my handicap. It’s called Scorecard and one of the lead guys involved in the project is the owner of TheSandTrap, which is a very popular golf blog / review site / forum.One nice feature is that it lets you export all of your scores to a web page. Check mine out HERE.


Running Like the Wind

Actually going to start up running again now that my back is 100% again. Stephanie and I both have decided to make an effort to start eating more healthy. We had been doing this but lately have slipped into some bad eating habits. And there’s nothing like winter to help pack on the extra pounds!
