What game are you best at? If your life depended on it and you didn’t know the other person’s abilities, what game would you choose to play?

Mine would be pool. Brent Koster’s—I assume—would be spinning a pillow on his finger. What would yours be?

I know that the Saints are regular readers of elbuzzard, so here goes. We wasted another great performance by Drew Brees and Marques Colston yesterday with all the stupid fumbling and dropped passes. Terrance Copper had a real nice fumble as we were driving to tie the game at the end of the fourth.

On Thursday I tried to put out two of my knick-knacks in our new apartment. The two pieces (which I am pretty sure are a set) were a Ricky Jackson action figure, and a Jack-a-lope bank. (A jackalope is the product of a jackrabbit and an antelope having sex. It looks like a jackrabbit with horns). Here is a picture.

Also, here is a painting of Ricky Jackson

These two additions to our dining room lasted until Saturday, when my wifeypoo took them down, and hid them from me. Now she wont tell me where they are, and I’m pretty sure that’s why the Saints lost yesterday. How can they be expected to win when my personal totem is in a drawer or box or something?

Also I was watching a hunting show on Sunday morning and they killed a bunch of deer, which I assume has something to do with the missing Jackalope. Darn it.

Please help convince my wife that these two items have a significant value in the overall consmos, as well as tying our dining room together. My other option is to take back all her birthday presents.

 

The search for a place/places to stay has begun, but pickings are slim. Two-bedroom, two-bath, sleeps six for $500 a night is the best we’ve found. We certainly expect more to become available, but those planning on attending need to officially commit and let either Kent or David P. know their financial limits for housing ASAP.

Thank you for your time.

 

I’ve added a new post rating system to elbuzzard.com. It’s anonymous, so let us know what you think. For example, I think Paul’s post about Borat stinks, so I gave it 2 stars. I also think that my happy birthday post to Brent stunk even worse, so I gave it one star.

I’ve been hearing that people want new features on elbuzzard. I’m going to set aside some time in the next couple weeks to update and redesign the site. I know everyone wants the photo gallery back up. So do I. That’s top priority.

Some people have mentioned a calendar, which I am investigating. It may or may not happen though. I don’t want to have too much personal information about people who don’t want/don’t know that it is up online. In the meantime, I suggest Google Calendar if you’re looking for an online calendar. Leslie and I both use it to coordinate our schedules and keep track of birthdays, anniversaries, etc. It’s super handy. It lets you do things like share calendars between users. We share a calendar that lists everyone’s birthdays. If you need an invite to Google Mail in order to use it, let me know.
I also would like to upgrade the look of the site to make it look a little sharper and more polished. It needs a fleur de lis, for sure.

What else would you like to see?

 

I wasn’t all that enthused to go and see this movie. I’ve never watched Ali G, never cared much for that sense of humor that picks on innocent people who don’t know they’re getting duped. Well kids, it wasn’t like that at all. A wonderful portrayal of our country of America, and the people in it who are truly kind and the rotten eggs who make it stink (and who we vote for, etc..). I laughed thoughout, and I learned some good lessons in etiquette to boot! For the pure of heart, there is some crass stuff in the movie…but don’t worry, it’s quite necessary. So all you elbuzzard folks…if this movie is in your town, GET OUT AND BUY A TICKET!
