8 hours of bad baseball |
Man, what a wasted day. I got up around 10, made muffins, went for a walk and watched the Pirates home opener at 11:30. Damn thing lasted over five hours and was monkey-butt ugly. Sure, I got up aroun... Posted by E on Tue, 08 Apr 2008 11:19:00 PST |
What I Learned from Ace Frehley and the Pirates |
I’ve never put my finger on it until now... but for me the "new year" starts after my birthday. Once I get over the depression of being older, balder, grayer and wrinklier every year.. things cl... Posted by E on Tue, 01 Apr 2008 11:29:00 PST |
On the road to Albuquerque (and beyond) |
So I’m leaving town tomorrow with the Old Man. This time of year, I usually go to Florida to watch some Spring Training games, but after last year’s somewhat lackluster outing, I was going... Posted by E on Sun, 23 Mar 2008 09:42:00 PST |
What I Learned from the Little Rat Dog |
Today I'm driving over to my folks' place and spot a frantic little dog running down the middle of the road. It's weaving in and out of traffic and while eveyrone's slowing down, nobody's really in a ... Posted by E on Mon, 10 Mar 2008 11:27:00 PST |

What I Learned from Bang Camaro |
Went out to the Bluebird Theatre last night to see Bang Camaro. I was hesitant, but my buddy was dying to go. He's a big video game junkie and I guess Bang Camaro is included in "Guitar Hero" and "Roc... Posted by E on Sun, 24 Feb 2008 03:57:00 PST |
What I Learned on the Frickin Light Rail |
Another storm hit Denver, overnight. Hoping to avoid last week's 1 hour and 47 minute over 14 miles commute, I decided to take the Frickin' RTD Light Rail. For once, I found parking and even though th... Posted by E on Tue, 05 Feb 2008 01:30:00 PST |
What I Learned at the Nuggets |
Went with the old man to a Nuggets game, last night. We had a good time..and I didn't curse or anything. I guess that's because, when it comes to basketball, I have no idea about the inner workings of... Posted by E on Sun, 27 Jan 2008 04:34:00 PST |
What I Learned From a Crappy Novel |
As most of you know, I'm a big baseball loon. I don't wave pom-poms or cheer mindlessly, rather I'm like one of those old codgers in the nursing home who sits in the rec room all day, playing dominoes... Posted by E on Mon, 21 Jan 2008 10:34:00 PST |
