Happy birthday Katie

No more Palin

For those of you who missed it, Conan O'Brien had a special guest on to interpret Sarah Palin's speech, explaining why she resigned (quit) as governor of Alaska.


Due to the copyright nazis over at NBC, I had to pull the video. I am sure you could find it on your own on youtube or NBC.com. William Shatner was hilarious both nights---you should see it.

Papas got a brand new shed

Breakfast

Wii

I know it isn't the newest thing on the market, but I got a Wii. I
figured you would care.

Winner.

Tiger should make the cut at the next major. I won again. Considering
the way I dropped the hammer, the PGA is probably in the bag.

Major Sports News

I lost in a best of three cut throat cricket match to my dad. Tiger
fails to make the cut at The Open. It had only been 38 times since
Tiger last missed the cut. At least twice as long for me.

First political post

Big suprise, Sarah Palin has announced she will resign as governor of
Alaska at the end of July. Big suprise. One can only hope--too easy
to crush in 2012. Want to read about it? Refer to any electronic
news source.
