Woo Hoo

So here I am, at the house on my brand new little laptop. No more feeling guilty about blogging at work, and, since I've been so busy at work, hopefully no more skipping months at a time. Yay me!

UGGGGGH! I didn't realize how long it had been since I'd blogged. I think I did the same thing last year. Oh well. Maybe in another year I'll have the consistency thing down.

Doesn't matter anyway - not too much I've been happy with lately to talk about. The 'boys are out, The Aggies got caught eating boogers on live TV and the GOP is not going my way. blah, blah, blah.

I guess I'll work on a Superbowl post and then figure out how to get through off-football season.

I mean there is NASCAR and the Yankees, right?

I've run across several things in the blogosphere this morning that I wanted to link over here, so why not just do a quick roundup?

Ace at Ace of Spades has a post up about how asinine Cosmo is with their new list entitled "Seven New Rules for Keeping Your Man"

He's right. Old Rule was ghey and New Rule is obvious.

What's making me laugh out loud are the comments. Yes, they are foul. But it seems that men really are all exactly the same. And in the "romantic" area - they all want the same three things:
1) B.J.
2) A Threesome
3) Your Backdoor

I guess some things never change.

Rachel Lucas is one of my daily reads as well cuz she is sooooo funny, and this link from her site this morning had me laughing my ass off and snorting Coke out of my nose. Funnily enough, I was reading the Cracked site earlier this morning, but not this particular list. So for your entertainment, the Ten Most Terrifyingly Inspirational 80's Songs!

It's "A series of songs that inspired us to kick ass in every way possible."

Here are some new phrases from the authors of this list. Try to use them in a sentence today:

Boob menacing

Rocking faces (as in, "I've seen a million faces, and I've rocked them all)

Knee deep in blood or poontang


On a more serious note (or not), this one left my mouth hanging open. From the Jawa Report:

All in all, converting to Islam would be a small price to pay for an end to
the killing and maiming of our sons and daughters, not to mention the billions
of dollars we could put to better use than fighting this perpetual war.

WTF? Words fail me on this one.

And of course, since it's a bye week for the 'boys and I won't be seeing Tony Romo on the big screen, a pretty picture of my future husband:

Well, overall it was a better week for me on the gridiron. Texas A&M triumphed gloriously, Texas Tech was taken down even more gloriously and my 'boys had a great showing yesterday.

That being said there were a few personal blips for me:

1) We've lost a recruit due to the mess at A&M.

2) I am a fan of OU, since we both dislike Texas, and although I always root for the Cowboys, I was secretly hoping that Adrian Peterson would have a great showing, because I like the Sooners and he's from Texas. I always root for Texans to do well. Even though Minnesota lost, I think Peterson has already shown time and again that he's a force to be reckoned with, but I felt bad since his WHOLE family was at the game.

3) The Pittsburgh game. The boyfriend and I bet on Pittsburgh in the pool. Big disappointment! I hope Indy wins tonight - so at least we'll be a wash again - but we're losing serious ground in the pool!

So here it is: My lamenting of last weekend's football nightmare.

The 12th Manchild says it better than I do, so I'll let him tell it.

I actually had to turn off the TV with 9 minutes left to go in the 4th quarter of the A&M game. It was sooooo depressing. However, the silver lining from my sister: Fact: we are not going to go undefeated this season and she would rather lose to someone like Tech and get our boys pumped up to not let it happen again so that they have the intense drive to beat teams like OU, and Texas.

Problem: OSU put the hurt on Nebraska this last weekend, and we play them this Saturday. Both teams are going to want to prove that the previous loss was a fluke, but Nebraska has the advantage since the game is in Lincoln and possibly a more intense need since they lost in Lincoln.

Texas beat Iowa State handily, I didn't even bother watching. bleh.

And my Cowboys, oh my Cowboys. Tony, my love, how you hurt me! It was a valiant effort, and I salute the Patriots.

As far as our pool goes - Chicago lost and Philly won, so we were a wash on our bets, but I don't know whether we moved up or down in the list, since the boyfriend has not bothered to send me this week's lines and standings. As of last week we were 14th out of 75 participants. Cross your fingers that we move up!

So, now that I had such a depressing weekend, my football freakiness has waned. I guess I'll go back to blogging about other stuff - at least until Friday.

I will write about the horrible headache and hangover inducing football weekend tomorrow after Monday Night Football, since I don't yet know where we are in the pool, but while you anxiously await my whining, bitching, and moaning of the hell that was my weekend, I present for you:

My Personal Confession Session. I just have a few things to get off my chest. Secrets, if you will.

I watch the movie Sister Act 2 almost every time it comes on.

I eat Fritos Scoops and Hot Bean Dip almost every day. alone.

I've got a homemade gospel cd of country gospel and liturgical hymns that I listen to almost daily as I drive around. And I sing along like I'm in a church choir or something.

I really like that Dallas Cowboys Cheerleader show.

I wear flip flops to work, and I try to pretend that I do it only on Fridays, which is still totally unprofessional.

I always cry at the end of Rocky when he's all beat to hell and yelling for Adrian.

It's Friday! And as I'm still not really in the mood to blog about VERY IMPORTANT issues of our time such as:

The Goracle winning the Nobel Pissing Contest Prize
or
More Bullshit from the Open Borders Crowd
or even
Britney Spears

I will continue on with my football freakiness and talk about that! So there.

I cannot wait for the smackdown tomorrow at 2:30 on ABC (but only if you're in a redstate... booyah!)

A&M will be visiting the Classless Clowns at Tortilla Tech to try and hold on to our first place spot in the Big 12 South, not to mention get our FIRST win in Lubbock since 1993. Do you realize I was a student at A&M the last time we won in Lubbock? Sad.

t.u. will be up against the 1-5 Iowa State Cyclones. Although it goes without saying that I want Iowa State to win, I won't be holding my breath. I didn't even remember that Iowa State was in the Big 12.

As for our AP top 5 undefeated teams: meh. I only care about A&M getting into the top 25 again. I will say this, though. I hope they all lose, just because I'm going for whatever underdog is up against these teams. Well, that's not totally true. Since A&M has no chance whatsoever, I'm rooting for LSU to make it to the Big One. I have some nostalgia for them left over from college. Back when we were the SWC, we used to open against LSU every year. I don't dislike them at all. So I root for LSU over the others.

As for the NFL, just for shits and giggles, here are my picks for our football pool:

Cinncinnati
Houston
Miami
Chicago
Philly
St. Louis
Tampa Bay
Washington
Carolina
Dallas
San Diego
New Orleans
Atlanta

You see, many of these teams are 0-5 and I think this is a week of upsets. The boyfriend, not so much. Here are his picks:

KC
Houston
Chicago
Philly
St. Louis
Tennessee
Green Bay
Carolina
New England (what a douchebag!)
Oakland
Seattle
New York

We actually only bet on Chicago and Philly in our pool (I cannot beging to describe the shame that I feel betting on Philly, since they are the anti-Christ, but people, this is for real money. So anti-Christ be dammed!)

However, as reported before, the boyfriend and I have money on the Dreamboat Quarterback Contest featuring the Oh-S0 Hot and Future Father of my Children, Tony Romo, and the Supermodel Sperm Bank, Tom Brady. My money is on Romo and America's Team.

Just for the record, I am a Patriot's fan, and any other time, I would be rooting for them. But you know, Any Given Sunday and all that.

I will be eating the Hot Beef Dip from Ladies... - looks pretty yummy!!

See you all next week when we'll all be acting like Monday Morning Quarterbacks!

There is so much going on in the news and the blogosphere, that I don't even know what to write about!

Should I write about my righteous indignation stemming from the war over NASCAR cooties? (I love the title "NASCAR cooties!")

Or about the complete and total douchebag who is suing a family over a puddle on the floor?

I tried to get pissed off about the Texas Tech Vick 'em T-shirts, given that the Red Raider fans have zero class and I am an Aggie, but both my Aggie sister and Aggie boyfriend thought it was funny. Does that mean that I'm over-reacting, or are they devoid of feeling? And besides, I read that the Texas Tech administration had banned the t-shirts.

I could write about Ann Coulter's idiotic rant about how Christians want to perfect the Jews, but I didn't totally get where she was coming from... so I'd sound like an idiot myself.

Update: Just reported on Fox News that the Douchebag cop is dropping her lawsuit. So, one less thing to worry about...

So instead, I will write about the thing most on my mind these days: Tony Romo.

My love for Tony Romo knows no bounds.

Unless he loses to New England on Sunday. I have a serious monetary bet on this game with the boyfriend. I will never hear the end of it if the 'boys sustain their first loss of the season.

So for my love of Tony Romo, here is a link to always wonderful Ladies... with yesterday's Hump Day Hottie... none other than Tony Romo!!!

Just a taste of him rockin' that football jersey...

I love this picture because I like his haircut. I love the really short hair on men. I'm weird that way.

And Even More From the World of the NFL...

Love, Love, Love those Cowboys!!



Love, Love, Love Tony Romo!!



I've even got a little love left over for Terrell Owens!

And I'll give some love to Brett Favre, the Man!

A big Congratulations on the 421st touchdown - hoping for many more!!

Football Roundup

The Aggies have started conference play with a win over Baylor. Baylor isn't great, but the last couple of years we've struggled with our wins against them. But for this year, the big Battle of the Brazos winner was once again, the Ags.

Aggies 34 - Baylor 10

But the even better news is that we are now in first in the South Division after the Longhorns got upset by the Kansas State Wildcats (yea!!!) and OU got upset by the Colorado Buffalos. So tu and OU both have conference losses, and even better, this week, at least one of those teams will have another loss on the books as the Red River Shootout hits the Cotton Bowl on Saturday night. For my money, I'm certainly rooting for OU to put the big hurt on tu and that nancy boy Colt McCoy.

However, this Saturday is a must win for the Aggies. We've got OSU on board and they are also 1-0 in conference play.

samuel L jackson beer

Since I'm still boycotting Miller products (and I have for a couple of years), I've decided the time is ripe to start looking at some of the other beers in the marketplace. Too bad I can't really buy Samuel Jackson beer. It'll get ya druck, bitch!

Another Reason I Boycott Miller Brewing Company

Homosexuals Mock 'Last Supper' With Sex-Toys Twist

And it's sponsored by none other than our favorite open-borders, La Raza lovin' beer company. If you look at the bottom of the picture, you'll see the Miller Logo right there on the left. Lovely.

Update:

As of Thursday, Miller has removed their logo from this ad due to public outcry, but the money is still being given to various S&M groups. Not good enough in my opinion. I'm still boycotting.

Now He's a Homo Denier, Too

A direct quote:

"In Iran we don't have homosexuals like in your country. In Iran we do not have this phenomenon. I don't know who's told you that we have this."

Methinks thou dost protest too much. (translation: He is sooo ghey)

I'm watching baby Achmed give his speech at Columbia and I am disgusted. He is a truly horrible man. Columbia should ashamed.

Update:
He is invoking the Almighty and Allah, and telling Islamic Bible Stories. Do you think that if the speaker was a non-Islamic leader of a nation, that the University and the press would allow it to go unmentioned? Bush is a devout Christian and get blasted for invoking God in his speeches. If any Western leader spoke about faith this much they would get booed off the stage, instead of the rapt silence in Lerner Hall.

I'm Such a Romo-sexual!!!!

Just to Get You Really Pissed Off on a Monday...

There's this:

Mexican Kids Daily Cross Texas Border for Free U.S. Paid Education

and this, from the comments section that just makes my blood boil:

Prior to coming to Iraq I worked US Customs at the US/Mex border in Nogales AZ.
Every morning on a school day I would watch 100's of mexican student pour into
the US and walk to school. Several new Customs Officers that transfered to the
area were forced to pay for their children to attend private school because the
public schools in Nogales were full. There is a cap on enrollment here. Several
years ago a new principal was hired at the local high school. He stood at the
downtown border crossing and wrote down the name of every student he watched
cross into the US. He then, later that day expelled those students. You can
guess what's coming next..... He was fired by the school board and those
expelled student were allowed to return to school.
On a side note, most
classes in Nogales AZ public schools are taught in spanish.

When will the madness end?

Some Extra Snark To Go With Your Morning Coffee

via Ace of Spades:

The new iteration has an age cap, allowing only those under the age of 30 to lie about sneaking into the U.S. before the age of 16.

Ouch!

The Hurricanes put the hurt on A&M last night! It was so painful to watch. Starting from the first play where McGee got sacked to the very bitter end. The only highlight was the kick-ass hail mary from the second string QB. Oh the pain!

Miami 34, A&M 17

(well, at least it wasn't a blowout)

This Makes Me Sick

via Drudge

When is the pandering and the entitling and the nannying going to stop? My guess? Never. How in the world did immigrants (legal ones at that) somehow manage to come to America from places like Italy, China, Poland - places where English is not the language, and survive? How did they do it? They did not get (and still don't) bi-lingual government documents or bi-lingual lessons. They had to go to school with the English speaking kids and, heaven forbid, learn or get left behind. What a notion.

Of course, thinking that today makes me a racist, a xenophobe and cold-hearted to boot.

The state of public schools in this country is abhorrent, but somehow, I do not believe that using Mexican-approved curricula is going to make it better. Or help the kids it's supposed to. It's only going to reinforce the notion that one need not learn English to be successful in the U.S. Sheer stupidity!

More Sports Related Stuff That I Command You To Care About

So The Boyfriend and I are in the big football pool again, and guess what???

We're in 5th place!! Yay us!

I'm not feeling particularly warm and fuzzy about the matchups this week, so I told him to keep the bets small just in case...

Our picks for this week are:

St. Louis
Seattle
New York Giants

We bet 2k on each. I feel moderately confident about our chances. My goal this week is to not lose our #5 slot, but watch how the four above us bet so we can overtake them later.

Did you know I'm smarter than the average bear??
