Bye Sammy
10 Sep 2010My brother texted me this morning and let me know that they had to put our dog Sammy to sleep. Sammy had gotten up there (I don't remember when we got her, but she was at least 11 or 12 years old). She couldn't get around as well any more, had trouble making it up and down stairs, and I think age just caught up with her.
She was a really good dog.

09 Sep 2010- iSSH added agent support. Sounds mundane, but now I can do 90% of my job on my iPad. No more lugging around the laptop everywhere. #

08 Sep 2010- I'm apparently bad luck. I go off to do some work, my boys put up 14 points and close the gap to 6 points.
It's not over yet ... #
- Did I say I was out? I was just kidding. I'm still not watching (bad luck). #
- Argh. Had him in the backfield. Learn to finish the tackle. #
- One long drive. Get at least 3 pts, and take a bunch of time off the clock. #
- Well, here we go. 1:47, need to get a stop. Really, really, need a stop. A pick would be great. Or a fumble. #
- Gotta play it better than that. #
- Unreal. Get it together. #
- Man, I hate this game. #
- Time for Tyrod Taylor. If the OLine can give him time, he can get into FG range. #
- Crap. Crap. Crap. Poo. Crap. #
- @dearleader For reals? in reply to dearleader #
- @dearleader Sweet. I dug some of the stuff off of The Red Album that reminded me of old Weezer. I'm on board. in reply to dearleader #

07 Sep 2010- @truthaboutmike Nervous, but optimistic. If our OLine can keep it together, we shouldn't have a problem scoring. And our helmets are tight. in reply to truthaboutmike #
- @truthaboutmike Heh. See you in January, in AZ? in reply to truthaboutmike #
- What a horrible start to this game. We are getting out-Hokied. #
- Damn. Well, I'm out. I don't think I have the stomach. #
The Most Wonderful Time of the Year
06 Sep 2010College football is back.
That means, most Saturdays, at any time between noon and midnight, there will be two or three games on at the same time. Random games between big schools and little schools. Games between two big schools.
While I love the NFL (reallly love the NFL), aside from watching for my fantasy league, there's no reason to watch games between bad teams. If we end up with Rams/Falcons or Cardinals/Seahawks as the second game of the Sunday doubleheader, I'll probably nap through it.
But, on a college football Saturday (and, in some cases like this weekend, a Sunday), you get stuff like:
Last second hail mary pass to win a game 49-48
A team from what used to be known as Division 1-AA beating an SEC school in 2OT
And, it means you get to see the best entrance in college football 5 or 6 times a year.
Hokies/Boise State. Get it done.

- @ewalk153 Indeed. I'm already signed up. in reply to ewalk153 #
- Drafting 11th in a 12 team draft. Moss and then S.Jax. I'm ok with that so far. #
- Next two picks: Steve Smith (original flavor) and Rivers. #
- Next up: Michael Bush and CJ Spiller. Going to draft a bunch of second tier RBs and hope to hit the big one. #
