Tuesday

Long weekends are good.

I watched US vs. Eng on Sat, the US needs work to say the least. Watched FC Dallas travel to RFK to take on the defending champs. FC was without Eddie and Greg Vanney who were off on National team duty. One brilliant Ruiz goal (currently holding 80% of the goal of the week vote) and just like that Dallas wins a tough road game 2-0. This team may truly be special, and you should get on the bandwagon now. The championship game is going to be held in Frisco this year, let's try and make it a home game! Who's with me?

Please stop by either fcdallas.net or MLsnet.com and check out the goal by Mr. Ruiz...it's pretty cool. It will give you a hint as to why I'm so into it.

On Sunday I had soccer practice for 3 hours. It rained on us for about fifteen minutes, but otherwise it was all good. I did feel my age again. Huge blisters, strained groin, and bruised heel (and that's just the left leg) The good news is you can ride a bike with a strained groin, so my Monday fitness was still on.

I also have practice at least two night this week...sigh.


Sunday night brought a rare appearance of me in public, as I paid a visit to the pub quiz. We had a large group, and yet there were still strangely a few answers I was the only one who knew. This is nice because it outweighs the appalling lack of answers I had overall.

I was the only one who could definitively identify an old pic of Eric Clapton, or that about Schmidt drove an RV, and that the Stones first hit was a cover of what Buddy Holly song...not fade away of course. I tend to leave the Shakespeare questions to others. Anyway we won by two answers so I felt like the effing x-factor.

Shout out to all veterans! We appreciate all you've done, and continue to do. Too many people I care about feel this country is a lost cause and leaving is the answer. I really hope they stick around, this country is at it's best when we debate issues and welcome all voices.

Yes I will buy the new Oasis today, and no I don't expect it to be any good.

Gorillas on the other hand is kind of genius.

New Gorillaz is definately kind of genius. I'm not sure I could spend any money on Oasis though. Tell me how that one is, although I'm afraid I already know.

Oasis can't be good. Gorillas is a great band name.
