Some INFO

Those of you still reading this, I will be home Dec 20th to January 2nd.

come stop by the domicile, we'll have some laughs some food and hopefully I won't make you cry. I'm going to spend as much time with the family as possible, so please forgive if I do not venture out and visit. I try to do the visits way too much when I've been home in the past and don't spend enough time with the fam. Not cool.

I will be at the football field on Saturday, so people show up. it's been a whilea nd I don't know how much longer I can play tackle football. I give myself 3 more years. which means about 6 more total times. that's scary.

Talk to ME with don cheadle is excellent, Flock with richard gere and claire danes, who is an okay actress but she is good to over act at least 1 scene ina movie and make you stop enjoying her character, is a terrible movie unless you are into that 8MM type scene. Just not my cup o tea, and if it's yours, well let's not discuss that topic.

check out the Yes I meant literally, http://www.newyorker.com/reporting/2007/12/17/071217fa_fact_lizza
This one I have more respect for McCain and Senator Graham..wise men trying not to be reactionary
also Dave Sedaris and Gladwell articles are pretty good and I enjoyed the one about Huckabee, especially his points on Education and the whole bomb bunker back in the 50s vs. shampoo in small bottles now analogy. ah read the articles time well spent. at least you'll be informed on some issues.
The new york magazine article on Giuliani is pretty good and the whole decrease in crime during Rudy's time in NYC and the reasons behind it has been discussed in Freakonomics and this article. interesting stuff. However, you need to read some pro Giuliani articles before you make a decision. Informed decisions, don't just say Giuliani cleaned up Nw York, tell me how his tactics cleaned up New York, what directives did he push through or his advisors, was it him or was it other reasons like the demographic change argued in Freakonmics? anyways i'm out enough of this.
