Coldness abounds on the plains..

well the wonderful austin weather has finally turned for the worse. days of drizzle, a hard freeze, and cloudiness have us hunkered down. mindy has been out of town for a week and comes back tomorrow. thank god, the dogs are wondering why i am trying to carry on conversations with them. since its been so bad out, i haven't gotten to any of the outdoor projects I wanted to knock off.

i saw a story on the CBS sunday morning news show about how popular "ping-pong" has become and clubs and bars are popping up all over to cash in. well first let me say that its called "table tennis" and it is an olympic sport. AND that we have been rocking a table for years now. i even introduced it to mindy's work when i got a table for free and gave it to her warehouse. they had a nice room for a while where the table was the only thing in the room and from what i hear there was a lot of playing going on- after hours i'm sure. once again i am a head of the times.

christmas is looming on the calendar. it never seems to amaze me in this season of "giving and hope for all mankind", that people act as shitty as they do in their cars looking for a parking space, or running through an intersection because they are late or in line for fast food. most people i'm sure never even notice other drivers or what's even going on around them, but for those of us that keep the pulse on society by how many people actually use a blinker for its intended use or don't block traffic at a parking lot intersection so they can wait for the lady with three kids to pull out of the parking space at the front row- we see it everyday. am i right fraz?

texas squeaked it out in the last second to beat NE which was just one of a great weekend full of great football games. but now all the bowl crap starts and we have to wait a month to see who the champ will be. of course after the wedontcare.com bowl or the other made up bowl game brought you by somecompanythatisrapingthecountryweliveinforbiggerprofits.com. thank god it won't be florida. tebow, put your helmet on when you are crying on the sidelines! and you should probably get used to losing (ask matt stafford) because when your headed to the worse team next year, in a cold, wintery environment where it snows instead of sunshines, around fans that won't like you- its going to suck. good luck!
