I'm sure this has already been mentioned somewhere on the board, but.... I really, really hope Justice gets added to the lineup. That would be incredibly amazing.

Woo, my brother is hopefully on his way to cruising to states in wrestling, won his sectionals tonight and should be the second seed at districts! Pretty cool stuff, its been a while since i've attended states, only thing that sucks is its the same weekend as the Arnold Expo.

I just called work to tell them I wasn't coming in today... or ever again... it was much more liberating when it played out in my head. Now I just feel kinda crappy.

Ziggy, how did he do.
My son's friend lost in the quarterfinals this year in 171. Really the first time in a couple years that he had not made it to final 4 guys. Feel so bad for him.

He won his class pretty easily at sectionals, districts is this weekend. They release a report before the postseason every year ranking the 25 best wrestlers in that division per weight class and there will be four at his districts, including him. He is ranked the second highest, but all those guys are gonna be tough. He wrestles 125. Its pretty amazing how much more intense wrestling is in Ohio than pretty much any other state. 71 is usually a tough weightclass since you have so many upperclassmen.
Boo to Ledger winning the Oscar... good movie, great performance, but everyone else in that category deserved it more than him.
Anyone who's seen Doubt knows PSH should have won.
I'm glad Sean Penn won for Milk...and the writer who also won made me tear up during his speech!
I'm going to go make my own white knot! For anybody who is interested, the white knots they were wearing are in support of marriage equality...it's a nationwide campaign. www.whiteknot.org

So, Drove 268 miles home from class last night. I am amazed how many people have cars with poorly adjusted headlights. Maybe people don't realize that if they have a messed up front of their car that they might need to adjust the lights. There are ways to check these things.
I know that since I am over 40, I'm a grumpy old man and night vision gets worse with age, but holy cow! It is no fun to be on a narrow section of mountain road (near the edge, not by the mountain) and be blinded by some ones head lights that are shooting off out of alignment.
Maybe I also believe that spending 7-20 bucks per bulb and being able to see the road is a benefit when driving on mountain roads at night. I would like a moment to see the deer or elk on the road BEFORE it is too late. An elk into the windshield is not a good idea.
Maybe this is a GRRR subject. Too bad, I did not relax this weekend, so I am back to work.

I second this. Also people who cannot properly operate their high-beams pisses me off. I was riding my fixie last night and had to stare into the retinal burning beams of xenon light from a BMW. I almost rode into a ditch going 22 mph on a dark back road. The car flipped their lights off after they passed me....

Trying to get my weekly local paper, the small one with mostly local stories. Told them I would be at Roo anyway, what a big deal it was etc. I minored in writing in college and wanted an opportunity to share my wonderful experience with as many people as possible, so I'd like to write a story if they'd be willing to publish it (Basically I want them to sponosr me for a press pass so I can go backstage ) Hope it works out.
