  • Artifical Intellegence, Fantasy Football Style

    Lacking the knowledge, and desire, to be a professional football analyst yet still wanting to engage in justified trash talking, I need a competitive edge for the fantasy football. This year my edge is in the form of League Master 2007, a fantasy football drafting tool. Everyone knows that a strong draft day is the…

  • Graduation Day

    TigerMan graduated tonight. He was on his best behavior during the evening’s ceremony, so needless to say we were pretty sure he wasn’t going to graduate. The exam was a tough one. He had to: sit, stay, lay down, “watch me”, come and walk nicely on his leash. The last one was the toughest for…

That first impression of a great deal, lasted through out our visit, even as we passed more expensively…
