Super Tecmo Bowl is real

I've been playing a season of Tecmo Bowl lately with Da Raida's. The programmers of Tecmo Bowl realy knew what they were doing when they made this game. It is so realistic! For example, I just finished the regular season, and look at the Sack leaderboard:
Now that is Brown Bag special! I have heard of ways to update the rosters to get todays players on Tecmo. If I had Haynesworth, the number would probably be 200 or more.

If that wasn't enough, check out the NFL leader in rushing: (as if there was any doubt)Now, I know I'm not the best of Tecmo players and all, but couldn't they have done a little bit better?

Most Amazing Video I've Ever Seen on Youtube

At the risk of post rampaging, I have to put this up because it is the most awesome thing I've ever seen on youtube. This is why I love the internet.

Forget the EdnaFund

I'm just going to get one of these creepy piggy banks.

Holter Monitor Time Again


I hate wearing these things. The pads that they stick the electrodes to draw blood when you take them off. Aaron, at your next meeting of doctors suggest a weaker adhesive. What they use now is overkill.

Humyo.com

I have become more cautious of hard drives (internal and external) for backing up data. That's why I love Humyo. You can get a free account with them, and back up all your media to their servers, and get to it from anywhere with an internet connection. I am in the process of backing up all my movies and music to there, and if you sign up you can access it all too. You can stream it to your computer from Humyo.

Some of the tunes: (UPDATED for everyone on the Internet)

Jimmy Lafave - Never Is A Moment

I also have some Nintendo files uploaded there, so you can play Tecmo Bowl, Punch Out, or Excitebike on your computer to your hearts content. And we would all look much cooler in these:

Thanks for pointing this video out J-Fo. I've never heard John Piper before this, but I like him. He's so calm, he makes my dad look like he's hopped up on Red Bull.

Fine, I'll post something about last night


Did anyone else notice Obama kind of changed the way he spoke last night to sound more pastor-like? He's no Martin Luther the King. All the "yes we can" stuff seemed a little weird.

Like it or not, he's going to be president for the next 4 years. Hopefully it won't be too bad. We made it through Clinton's term.

The Celebration of Facial Hair

I hope you all have realized that it is November and thus National Beard Month.  Just because we are not all together does not mean that we can't celebrate in unison.  I hope to see some nice swaths of facial hair by the end of the month.  I have decided that there is nothing like going home to see the folks with a thick beard at Thanksgiving.
Here is a look at some of us the past few years...

A beard increases your desire for hot chocolate, fires and all things warm

Putting the cool in Rock Band
"Speak softly and carry a big stick and have a sweet beard."
Sorry Landon, Ross and Seth - I don't have any nice beard shots of you guys.  Send me one and I will add it.
