Wacky weather..

From super warm and nice on Monday to snow and cold for tomorrow… Indiana and Nebraska share similar weather patterns.

Football news!
Pro – Ricky Proehl (WR) joins the Colts. This will be a great addition as they haven’t been running their normal 3 wide set since Stokely (WR) has been injured. With Dallas Clark (TE) getting hurt it puts some additional strain on their depth in the three wide set… Clark often would line up as the third wide receiver.

College – The Big 12 championship game to produce two bowl teams. The winner is to go to the BCS game at the Fiesta Bowl and the loser is to go to the Cotton Bowl. Not a bad deal at all for the Big 12, as a few other teams are expected to get bowl invites as well.

So Stephen Colbert is having (or had) a “Green Screen Challenge”… some very funny results on his site.

Maybe some more later…

And… We’re back!

Got in before 9pm last night from Ohio… had a great trip. Colts stepped up and had a nice solid win, even if it was against a McNabb-free Eagles. Have a big meeting today so I will be a bit busy… but I did get the trip pictures up on PicasaWeb.

Peek-a-boo!

From Thanksgiving …

Hope everyone had a great holiday.

Monday blues…

So the Colts lost, :sadface:. But at 9-1 they are still the best in the conference… I hope they can fix the problems that the Cowboys exposed.

It’s a short week with Thanksgiving on Thursday! We will be traveling to visit Jenni’s grandmother in Ohio and Jenni’s mom and dad will be there too. Should be a really nice visit. Carson is already excited.

Monday already!?!?

Well, it’s Monday already… ain’t that a _____? Heather and Brett left out this morning. We had a great visit!! Got to look around downtown and do a little shopping, saw the Indianapolis Motor Speedway Hall of Fame, and looked through the Civil War Museum in Monument Circle. Sunday came and we watched the Colts trying their hardest not to lose, too bad they weren’t trying to win instead would’ve been more scoring. 😉

Cool event coordinator site, that’s free!

Tired but excited…

So I stayed up for the entire Colts-Pats game, as seen by my last entry early this morning. Which means I’m tired, but I’m excited for this week to begin because on Friday Brett & Heather will be driving in to visit us. Going to be a fun weekend, we’re going to go watch the Colts play the Bills among other things.

I picked up a new phrase today from Penny Arcade, pray I do not point it at you. LOL!

Verrrrrry tempting purchase, I fear I might go broke though.

Here’s a really good breakdown of the Colts-Pats game.

Trying to decide on a color scheme for a room? for a website? for a newsletter? Color Palette Generator to the rescue! It’s pretty neat, I messed with it for a solid 15 minutes.

Carson got his class photos back.. THEY ARE AWESOME!!

Class today

Today I’m sitting in on a co-worker’s class on Group Policy Objects. I made that sentence a link to a wikipedia article, in case you were wondering what it was. After reading the article myself it seemed boring, but it’s not and I’m super psyched to be in the class. Since I’ll be in this class I may not update this much today but I’ll try to put some stuff in here that might pop into my head.

More later.

Quick note on the “This day in history” tip… GODZILLA! was released this day in 1954 in Tokyo. If you ever listen to The Bob and Tom morning show, you will chuckle knowing this fact. I know I did.

WHOA! Louisville beat West Virginia 44-34. I thought it would be a close game but that WV would come out on top, after reading Pat Forde’s story on ESPN.com it looks like Louisville shocked more than just me. This is why I like College Football so much, the stories, the drama, the “intangibles” (*does the Brett hand motion*), and home team being able to perform ungodly feats thanks to their fans. Pro football is fun but it lacks the heart and drama of the College scene.

K.. back to class. 😉

LUNCH BREAK!! Ok, so I was talking with someone about Google’s income so far this year and it being in the billions. I FOUND THE LINK! Yes, revenue of $2.69 BILLION for the 3rd quarter. If you love Google as much as I do (which I’m hardly certain is possible), then you’ll find Download Squad’s coverage of Google very entertaining. One link I got from the Googleholic category that I found more scary than entertaining was The Church of Google. I mean wow, freak alert. 😉

Alright folks, back to class… let’s hope I don’t get the normal post lunch coma.

Coma averted… whew.

Good class overall, I learned some quality stuff.. that I will spare all of you from. 😉
