Packers Season Graph

If you're into Packer stats, here's a good graphic of Green Bay's road to the playoffs. I found this in an article by Tom Silverstein of the Journal Sentinel. Click to enlarge.

The first 8 games (4-4)


The last 8 games (7-1)


2 hours 'til game time! Go Pack!


7:27pm Edit: I'm disappointed. The Packers got off to a terrible start, came back and sent it into overtime, then lost ugly. I'm not terribly upset, though. This was a major improvement over last season and I expect them to continue making strides with this core group of players and coaches. We'll get 'em next year!
(Now I'm gonna go mourn this loss privately...@#$%^&*!)

Pic Dump 7

Here we go again, with a supersize dump this time! Some you may have seen, some you may not. These are just some pics that caught my fancy for one reason or another. As always, discretion may be advised after the break. Remember to click on the pic to see original size!


Pizza made with McDonald's food. I've had something similar before, actually. It had chicken strips, french fries, and mozzarella sticks on it. And it was GOOD!

24 more after the break, including some holiday ones that I will not save for a year.

Holiday, Health, and Packers

Every time I say here that I'll post tomorrow, inevitably it ends up being a day later. This has happened at least 5 or 6 times now. I must stop doing that. I know I haven't posted as much as normal recently. I'll get back in the groove soon I'm sure.

Anyway, I hope all had a well and safe holiday season. Seems a little far removed for a full holiday recap from me now. Suffice it to say that it was pretty much as expected and the same as it has been for the last few years. It's definitely not my favorite time of year. I did get to see my nieces and nephews, which is always the highlight.

As I mentioned I have had a pretty severe cold that kept me pretty lazy and miserable. It started almost 2 weeks ago and although I'm pretty much over it now I'm still going through alot of tissues.

I just watched the Badgers beat #4 Purdue. And of course it is Wildcard Weekend! All sorts of sports on TV! My wife hates it, so I do try to limit my watching or I would have it on probably all 48 hours this weekend. The Packers will demolish Arizona again tomorrow afternoon. Actually, I'm sure it will be much closer than the last game, but I have no doubt Green Bay will win! Go Pack Go!

Space: Frontiers and Beyond

I'll take the time for a 'proper' post tomorrow evening. So, while I procrastinate one more day, please enjoy this!



Also, here's a pic of all the space missions.  Click to enlarge. I hope blogger uploads original size.

Classic Pizza Pit Commercial

I'm still feeling less than 100% and I have been super lazy. Yet, I am still alive and must get my act together for the work week. Until I have more gumption, enjoy this classic commercial from right here in Madison. This commercial has run every year since I think the late 70's.

Happy New Year 2010

I hope all out there have a happy and healthy new year!


Fortunately I am feeling better. Sorry about the lack of posts. I made it through work today, but I'm still trying to fight off the last of my (rather nasty) cold. My wife just left to go out with our friends- and I'll be asleep by midnight. Oh well. I'm still having a few drinks and pretending I'm well, for now! I haven't even unloaded our christmas photos yet. Three more days to get back on track, though. Happy New Year!

Edit: Did you know it is a 'Blue Moon' tonight? It's the second full moon this month.

Funny Father Xmas Apology

This is funny - as long as he did all that for his kids when they were young. Mine didn't, but I'm sure he justifies it to himself.


I've become ill. I'll recap the holidays later. Maybe if I'm home sick tomorrow, or maybe not.

My New Favorite Xmas Song

I've purposely been avoiding the topic lately, but I'm not big on holidays. The most I like is the extra time off from work. There is no major reason that I could name, unlike others (condolences DG!).

I found a new favorite song for the season! Only because I have no favorite song for this season. Have a wonderful day!



(My first link to hulu, I don't think it will fit. Here's a direct link to Eat Me Daily, where I found it.)

Pic Dump 6 - Doubled

Here we go again! Some you may have seen, some you may not. These are just some pics that caught my fancy for one reason or another. I have an abundance this time so twice as many as usual. As always, discretion may be advised after the break. Remember to click on the pic to see original size!


Doesn't this look like the bestest most delicious cupcake ever!!!

Simon's Cat

If you have not come across Simon's Cat yet, then you probably should check to see what you're missing.  This is alot more entertaining for cat people, I'm sure, but all could enjoy it.  Here is the first one that I saw.  It's probably still my favorite!
