I am the champion

So what’s been going on around here lately in Jersey? Ummmm, nothing too exciting. I just got done reading Jeff’s ANTARCTICA!!! blog and my life seems pretty dull and boring now. I must mention that I won my fantasy football league. Yes, I know you are all excited for me. I will now step off my pedestal.

Sooooo….. I’m getting pretty excited about baseball… only 3 more months till April! I’m interested to see how the Sox fill up the tremendous holes they’ve created this off-season. The only thing I ask is that they stay away from the Clemens auction. Please! This would ruin the whole season for me if they sign him. I don’t know how to handle rooting for someone that you hate. I think the two sides of my brain may duel to the death on this one.

Prediction: Superbowl XL Patriots over Bears (17-10)
…because the Colts and the Seahawks will choke… and defense wins games.

My band, “One More Round” (website pending), rocked out during my company’s “holiday party” a few weeks ago. Below was our setlist.

4. Wonderwall - Oasis
5. Jack & Diane – John Melloncamp

12. Take the Money and Run – Steve Miller Band
13. I Will Survive - Cake

We are currently thinking of new songs to play so we are accepting suggestions. Let me know if anyone has any great ideas.

I wish the ice in NJ would make up its mind. Last week we had 5 inches and this week almost none. No more of this “its-cold-enough-for-water-to-freeze-but-there-is-not-enough-ice-to-stand-on” crap. I need my ice-fishing fix.
