do, nothing seems to go right.  Even if you do half-a-dozen things right, the one thing you screw up gets magnified to the point where it takes over your whole day.  Most of the time, that one error is minor in the grand scheme of things, but it gets blown out of proportion by you or whomever was erred.  So, I'm in a slump.  I need a slump-buster.  Or a beer.  The way my luck has turned lately, that beer will be warm, however.http://www.929thebigcheese.com/blog/driver/blogentry.aspx?BlogEntryID=10402392driver@929thebigcheese.com

nothing but fli-flops all last week, my toes and feet are killing me.  There has to be a sandal out there that offers the correct amount of comfort and arch support one needs while enjoying a hot summer day. http://www.929thebigcheese.com/blog/driver/blogentry.aspx?BlogEntryID=10401904driver@929thebigcheese.com

goal is to make my office look like my dorm room.  To make it match, I just have to find that Jenny McCarthy swimsuit poster from 15 years ago.  (15 years ago!  Egads!)http://www.929thebigcheese.com/blog/driver/blogentry.aspx?BlogEntryID=10401415driver@929thebigcheese.com

things, Rockfest related and otherwise.  But that's not the important thing.  What is important:  should I place a year's worth of mortgage payments on red, or black?  Perhaps even or odd.  Tough choices, man.http://www.929thebigcheese.com/blog/driver/blogentry.aspx?BlogEntryID=10400991driver@929thebigcheese.com

wife has "Twilight: Breaking Dawn" blaring on the TV.  From what I gathered, the stoner-looking chick got married to the sparkly vampire.  The werewolf guy who has a crush on stoner chick didn't want her to have sex with sparkly vampire because of the possible dangers of giving birth to demon vampire spawn...something to the effect that it could kill her.  Then there was sex...but it was Christian book/movie sex, so there was nowhere close to enough nudity.  This was fine, because I don't think anyone wants to see the stoner chick naked, anyhow.  Then there was a fight scene, and a car crash, and that's it.  End scene.  There needed to be more explosions, car chase scenes, dramatic camera movements, and random nudity that didn't propel the plot.  And a meteor strike.  Yeah, meteors.http://www.929thebigcheese.com/blog/driver/blogentry.aspx?BlogEntryID=10400277driver@929thebigcheese.com (Driver)http://www.929thebigcheese.com/blog/driver/blogentry.aspx?BlogEntryID=10400277Tue, 03 Jul 2012 12:04:36 GMTYesterday, I saw a woman who looked like Jim Furyk.  A quick Google search will show you who Jim Furyk is (I don't own any images of him...and I'm not about to be that guy who breaks some photographer's copyright restrictions).  Anyhow, I don't know what was scarier:  her, or the fact that I instantly thought of Jim Furyk when I saw her. http://www.929thebigcheese.com/blog/driver/blogentry.aspx?BlogEntryID=10399982driver@929thebigcheese.com

it to the radio.  Much of what you hear on the air are songs that "test well" with a certain audience of a certain demographic that a radio station tries to reach.  In other words, songs that tend not to illicit negative feelings, but at the same time don't turn a listener into a raving lunatic filled with joy and excitement.  Somewhere in the middle, that's where you get a good radio song.  Being too vanilla is never a problem.  A song that has "something different", however, never makes it to the air.  It also helps if you're attractive.  Physical looks should have no say on whether or not a song becomes a hit, but that's not how it goes.  So, Meatloaf is a fantastic artist.  Most of his best songs don't fit the stereotypical

Some people are forever sad.  Some people want to do good things in the world.  Some people  just want to watch the world burn.  Did I just write a country song?http://www.929thebigcheese.com/blog/driver/blogentry.aspx?BlogEntryID=10399130driver@929thebigcheese.com (Driver)http://www.929thebigcheese.com/blog/driver/blogentry.aspx?BlogEntryID=10399130Thu, 28 Jun 2012 12:52:45 GMTOpening Day for Major League Baseball is Thursday.  Yes, two games that count have already been played in Japan.  Yes, there is an opening game Wednesday night in Miami.  But the "real" Opening Day is Thursday.  Here is a quick prediction of how three teams of note in this area are going to fare. Minnesota Twins:  Lucky to get to 70 wins this year Milwaukee Brewers:  85 wins, which just might win them the division Chicago Cubs:  Lucky that the Astros are still in the National League Central.  Otherwise, they'd finish last in the division. Of note, I am a Cubs fan.  They will win.  And it will be soon.  Just not this year.  The Brewers will win more games than one would think after losing the 2nd best first baseman in the game.  And the Twins...well, they have a nice stadium. As for me, I'll be sitting in the ...http://www.929thebigcheese.com/blog/driver/blogentry.aspx?BlogEntryID=10367084driver@929thebigcheese.com (Driver)http://www.929thebigcheese.com/blog/driver/blogentry.aspx?BlogEntryID=10367084Tue, 03 Apr 2012 14:55:54 GMT
