2008 sucks

Thank god its over.  Hurrah!!!  I've mentally checked back in and I'm ready to celebrate the new year.  Now all I need is stock recovery and 6 months of the gym and I'm good to go.  Oh, this is the year of overpriced cigars and cognac btw.

Silver lining

Olympics are over. Thank god. But I have to say that I'm sad to see them go.

All in all, Olympic accomplishments include... 36 gold, 38 silver, 36 bronze, about 3 cases of beer, around 3.6 liters of Jamison, .63 bottles of Plymouth and about 6.3 extra lbs.

At the Updyke-Halstenrud house, the gold went to Micho for his 0 flip, 0 spin dive into the pool (ok, he slipped), silver to Ulysses for his WR and OR 2 scorpions killed & disected (wrestling is the category, I guess) and Mangy got the bronze for doing jack shit for 3 weeks.

Time to start working out for the next Olympics. See ya in 4 years.

Clearly the solution to this is the spork. Americans 1, Brits 0. Booyah!

2008 sucks

If the software I'm responsible for broke as often as this shitty economy, I would've lost my job a long time ago. Actually, that's a lie.
