Congrats to UC. I am usually very busy on Saturdays, not that Im not today. But today Im making time to watch some of the UC v Syr game. I hope the Bearcats stomp them into oblivion. 

WV v Pitt was an exciting game yesterday. In fact all the games on the major networks were great. How about Nebraska's kicker hitting the 57-yard fg? Wow. That was sweet.

The Suns without Steve Nash, look like the Bengals with out Carson Palmer. Nash is out with a thigh injury, which left the Suns without a point guard to distribute the ball. Plus, Nash is always good for a few 3 pointers, he had the most in the NBA last year. So they couldnt stop D Wade and he put up 43. Here's the boxscore.

Check out this video taken by an oil rigger 2.5 miles under the gulf of Mexico. It's frightening.

I have to give credit to my friend Amy for finding the alien. She works at the womens center on Xavier's campus. Cool girl.

Go X!

My friend Amy sent me this helpful flow chart. Ive often wondered how to make a dove cry, and this chart helps me remember.

Disclaimer: If you are under the age of 30, you may not get the following joke.

I recieved this catalog in the mail today. It's for movie memorabillia. Not only is this stuff really expensive, who would want it? You can buy a rack full of wands from Harry Potter for 200 bucks. Or how about an Indiana Jones whip? Not your thing, hows about that puzzle thing from Davinci Code? Here's the website.

Im kind of a sci-fi dork, and when I was a kid I would have pined over parts of this catalog. I had my own sword back then, but now I just think its wasteful and silly. Plus if I want a broom to fly on, I already know where to go.

I love that photo. You can see the guy telling me to put the broom back. He was pissed.

First of all. GO BEARCATS!

 How big was that game on saturday? I had to do some work, so I listened to the brodcast. Anyone else think the UC broadcasts (football and basketball) are the best, non- Reds, team on radio? Anyway, thank you to the people throwing oranges and rushing the field. I wish I could have been there with you.

Next, GO GIANTS!

My G-men are going to the Super Bowl again. I have no doubt. After that beatdown of Arizona, I almost wish more Giants would get hurt. Everytime someone does, the next man steps it up. Eli, is so clutch. And so is the whole team.

And lastly, GO XAVIER!

Finding ways to win. The 3 games they have played in San Juan have been very exciting. Very. They won one of them on a buzzer beating half-court overtime shot. Thats big league.
