Happy Monday. How was everyone’s holiday weekend? Mine was just dandy, thanks for asking. I had an exceptionally good weekend, not only because it was Christmas, but because I had a couple friends in town that I rarely see, and the further out of high school I get, the more I start to miss some [...]

“Dealer, Beer Me A Seven!”
December 29, 2008Even More Favorites
December 22, 2008Sorry for taking the week off, but don’t say I didn’t warn you. Work is just ballistic right now. One more week of pure chaos and then it will return to some sort of semblance of normalcy, at least I hope. Anyone who says the failing economy is having an effect on consumerism needs to [...]
2008 Year-End Awards
December 14, 2008Hello all and welcome to El Casa de Ten! (For all of you who don’t know, that was Spanish for “The Casa de Ten”). Anyway, welcome to the 2008 Tennies. As we bid adieu (you didn’t know I was multi-lingual did you?) to 2008, I’ll be handing out my year-end awards to any and all [...]
More Random Thoughts
December 12, 2008Just a few random thoughts I have tumbling around in my melon as we head into the weekend …

Between the 34 bowl games, Christmas, and New Year’s, the only thing that could make the next four weeks better is if March Madness was bumped up two months. I have been amped since Sunday when the bowl schedule was released [...]
Kanye Stays True To His Word
December 5, 2008It’s official. Mark it. Time of death: 12:01 AM, November 24th, 2008.
Who died? Well it’s not “who” so much as it is “what.” What the hell am I talking about? Kanye West’s run of good albums. It’s done. His latest, 808s & Heartbreak, is a total stinker. It’s difficult for me to type this out [...]
No Need Towels, Need Sleepy!
December 4, 2008If memory serves me correctly, we’ve talked briefly about my weird sleep patterns a time or two. Now since I know I am far from the only person who can get a little weird during a good snooze, I feel slightly better telling you what I am about to tell you.
I’ve done some interesting sleep-related [...]
