So I’m now moving to Chicago in less than a week. I went apartment searching last Friday and Saturday, and we ended up finding a place. I’m planning on posting pictures of everything later, but before I do that, I need to be a little more sentimental. I was having this conversation with my friend …
New Car’d
So I bought a new car. My last two cars now have both had transmissions die, so let’s keep our fingers crossed for this one. It’s a Hyundai Elantra 2005. And as always, with the dawn of one age comes the death of another (and I tend to be sentimental about this kind of stuff, …
Horror Movies
So since we’re getting close to Halloween, I’m going through my annual “want to watch horror movies all the time” phase, so I tivo’d a bunch of random horror movies, and just in case any of you were maybe expecting otherwise, Tremors 4 is really really bad.
NFL First Guessing – Week 6
Bear down, Chicago Bears! So hey, beat the Packers and over-dramatically saved the season? I don’t know if we saved the season, but we DESPERATELY needed that game, and our defense came up big when they needed to, despite the fact that they played the worst first half of the season. And thank GOD we …
Monster Channel?!
Am I seeing this correctly? I was just scanning tivo.com (Online Scheduling) to see what good horror movies I could Tivo in the next few weeks to Halloween, and I noticed that Dish apparently has a “Monster” channel. I’m looking online, so I’m actually not entirely sure if I get that channel or not, but …
NFL First Guessing – Week 5
What did I tell you about last week? I knew I was picking way too many favorites, and because of that my picks were 6-8 (I suppose it could have been a lot worse). I should have known better. And the Bears piss me off, but I posted my thoughts on that earlier in the …
Mail-in Rebates Suck
And we all know it. I’ve grown fed up with them. Now granted I’ve had my share of decent mail in rebates. The time there was a buy 1 get 3 free (via email rebate) on computer games, in which I almost collected the entire “Tycoon” series. And there’s been the occasional $40 rebate that …
Baseball Playoffs!
So hey, I actually have a reason to care about the Baseball playoffs this year! So that’s fun (it’s also really nice to have, since the Bears blow). So if you look at this post, you’ll see I actually wasn’t too far off in a lot of my picks. The Brewers were my surprise team …
Damn Bears
That was the subject line of the email from my dad this morning (just to give you the idea of where I get my Bears feelings). Here was my response to him, and I figured it was worth putting up here, instead of trying to write it again: Yeah, the Bears are making me like …
NFL First Guessing – Week 4
So since I’m not sure what’s going to happen with the Bears Talk podcast, at least until I’m less busy, I’ll post my Bears thoughts. First off, we may be in a lot of trouble. We’re getting hit with the “superbowl loser” curse, at least in regards to injuries. Dvoracek and Mike Brown gone on …
