You tell him, Dave!

Teach him to have time off while the rest of us working stiffs are struggling to get up early after the game!

You're going to think I'm a nerd, but oh well...

That’s actually a big part of what I’m “very excited” about, staying up late as the post-game “blogger in residence” and really doing the F-D-L well before crashing and sleeping in.

It's gonna be a great year.

Made a gumbo for 20-25 people at my wife's workplace yesterday

(Lafayette, LA)
while getting things set up a man from her office walks in with Steelers gear on from head to toe. I had on my Saints cap. We stared at each other for about 30 seconds, when I could see he felt a bit awkward he cleared his throat and said:
Steelers Fan: “Hi, sir, how are you?”
Me: “Good. Did you lose a BET?”
Steelers Fan: “Haha, no…. I’ve always been a Steelers Fan.”
Me: “Oh, I see. Have a good day.”
Steelers Fan: “You too, pal.”

Yeah, no gumbo for dat guy!

just saw on your profile page that you are a juggler…!

I am a very amateur juggler myself! Can juggle three items for about 30-45 seconds or so before I lose it. But I appreciate the craft of juggling very much as well as magic and general clown act behavior, too!

hoo-wah – beer brewing and juggling SWEET!

It's gonna be a great year.
