Monday: September 11, 2006 - Busy Bee
First off all, barb is now a proud member of the Guilt Links. Over the weekend I plan to make a significant change to them so they load faster. You see, I'm scraping a full page's worth of data and since most of the sites have an RSS feed it will take much less time to parse through that instead. Now that I'm an XML master I can do such things.
Secondly, I am the leader of College Pick 'Em going into a hellish Week 3. As you can see I do not have a commanding lead and I anticipate holding firmly to last place after getting only two games right this week. I have FSU picked to win with only two confidence points after last week's "effort" against Troy; all but one of my upsets I have more riding on.
Over the weekend I started reading Running with Scissors by Augusten Burroughs. Matt told me I'd probably like him since I like David Sedaris so much but while the book was good he's no David Sedaris. I figured I'd give Augusten another chance and last night I finished Dry. Again, a solid B book. If you're not a sarcastic person or have not read David Sedaris you'd probably find it funny and give it an A. Auguesten is more pity-me self-depricating and David is more laugh-at-me self-depricating so it looks like no one will be replacing David off the top of my list.

I took the day off blogging but only because I was thinking of you.05-11-2006: I ditched karate last night even though there's an upcoming belt test because of a severe stomach ache. While I did have BW3's for lunch I didn't go hog-wild and deserve to have what felt like a full Keep Reading...

I mean seriously, it was ok to suck before this year because you didn't have more than two good players but now? Your payroll is something around $90,000,000. I fel Keep Reading...
