Going Back To Cali

Ok, I made it to California. What a trip, dude!!! I'm still in flux and I want to tell all of you about our trip, but I need to get some things together. I expect to be back posting once a week or more in a week or two, but you know me! Ryan and I had a blast! Brian Brian Fox is doing well. His lovely wife Jen and their adorable daughter Anderson seem to put up with him very well. We hit many states and took a crap-load of pictures, but Ryan hasn't gotten off his rear-end yet, so my picture show is, as of now, incomplete. That's my fault. His camera was better, so he took more picturess than I did. Stay tuned for the complete trip collage (that's french, so you know) and I will recap all the places and people that we visited. I won't leave anyone out, except for the dealer in Vegas who made fun of my drunk-ass and took all my chips.

Hope you all are well and I will be in touch soon. Hope the weather back East is better than here. Its 68, partly cloudy and no humidity. How is it there?

And now for Sports:

I went to San Jose with my brother Billy last Sunday to see the Sharks against the Avalanche and I learned one thing: The hottest women in any sport's-market go to hockey games. Holy Moly! Not to mention that the place was packed and Joe Thornton is the Man! Even though the Rink is one and a half hours from my house, it was well worth the trip...even if you include the parking ticket I got for parking illegally. It was for $51.00 dollars. Not $50.00, but $51.00. 'Cause that dollar makes a huge difference, right?

Anyway, the Sharks won, I saw Joe Sakic and Alex Tanguay, Joe Thornton and Jonathon Cheechoo play (Cheech, to the locals) and we had a blast. Hockey does exist here, in its distinctive form, so I'm pretty happy. I miss my Caps, but once I get the Direct TV package, I'll be able to over-load on Hockey more than ever! That's my heroin, people...just less harmful.

How 'Bout Them Cowboys?!

So, the Cowboys cut Keyshawn Johnson so they could sign Terrell Owens? Talk about cutting off your johnson to get another dick... I can't say I'm surprised. Jerry Jones has usually signed the biggest assholes in the league since he bought the team: Jimmie Johnson, Barry Switzer, Michael Irvin, Deion Sanders... All the more reason to hate the Cowboys, I say. This a match made in heaven. Did you all know that T.O. stands for "Totally Obnoxious"? Seems to me that the only place better for T.O. to play other than Philly, would be Dallas. Although, he could have probably made it in New York. Go Skins!

The "No's":

I had a whole thing planned out to write about the Washington Nationals on my trip across the continent. How they didn't have a stadium; how they didn't have an owner; how even their name was tied up in court over copyright infringement! Hell, throw in Alfonso Soriano's refusal to play left field instead of second base--where he is only the worst fielding second baseman in the past 50 years--and I thought I had a case to rename the team the "No's"; No owner, no stadium, no name. Unfortunately, the stadium deal got done, the team name-dispute got settled out of court, and Soriano has a greed to play left field all season. I had a joke 9 days ago, but I'm to late to get the laughs. Story of my life. Baseball should name an owner so this Kangeroo B.S. finally ends, right Nat Fans'!?

As always, I love you all. Keep it real, but not too real. My story of the trip is coming soon. Peace out, dawgs!
