Green Bee http://www.bddev.com/blog/Chad/index.php?entry=entry110117-094125 Green Hornet was extemely AWESOME!!! Everybody wants to go see it again. I need to know if there was a reference to the Lone Ranger in it. I didn't see one, but there was credit given to The Lone Ranger in the credits...... Don't waste your time on the 3-D version....Jordan Creek definately has a 2-D version of it.

Looked good against Baylor on Saturday.....would be undefeated if it wasn't for those four loses by a total of about 14 points......


Lets hope the Jets win this weekend. As for the otherside either or has there benefits.....

Tuff loss http://www.bddev.com/blog/Chad/index.php?entry=entry110113-133028

Austin has game tonight. Monday's was canceled due to weather.

Yesterday was extremely cool. Got to hang out with Johnny Orr for most of the day....and watch ISU loss a close game to #3 Kansas. I'll get the pictures up for Johnnys and his statue up in a couple of days. Also watched the

People....are sad, conniving, deceitful. Untrustworthy people live on other peoples emotions just so they feel better about themselves. They're manipulative for their own well being. They need to take a good hard look at themselves and.....

Talk about hoops to jump through for 401K's...If I actually make to be able to withdraw later, I wonder how that will be. Damn I don't want to get that old, probably won't have anything to worry about.

0days without a deer incident!

@!#@#%$%&^#%&$!!!!! Not a happy camper today! Didn't have choice had to hit it straight on or worse things could have happened with the inch of snow on the ground!

All three of my teams lost over the weekend. Colts nad Eagles both out of playoffs. ISU lost to Nebraska in first conference game of year with 1 sec left by 1 point.

Austin game at Urbandale tonight, weather pending. Blaise is skipping practice.

Rock climbing on Saturday for Rileys B'day...definately out of shape. Elbows held up until yesterday with the left one slightly sore.

IMS arrrgggg, but finally done and $$...so I guess thats one way to look at it.

Is It Safe to Microwave Plastic? Bottom line NO ...not even with microwaveable plastic.....Just checking again, I saw this pasta boat thing and was like that would help immensely, but it's plastic. Every little thing helps prevent cancer, just as ever little thing helps cause cancer.]]>

Chemical in Women's Tears Turns Men Off, Study Finds ...that explains it.

Indians lost by 1 last night to Johnston . Austin did not look well. He played slightly above average. He had the most assists on the team, but he looked like something was wrong with him. He did not want to talk about it either. He played totally flatfooted, didn't jump once. Was not agressive at all, he really didn't look normal. Almost as if he was suffering from oxygen deprivation, nervous about something major, or high on something. After the game he got mad when I was trying to figure it out, because as he put it he was fine.....Unfortunately I acted that way when I was his age only because my parents couldn't relate and were not there when I needed good sound advice. Of course Austin has never wanted that from me, because he knows everything. Most of that started when he was 7. I guess it's time to let him do his own thing.

About an inch of snow this morning, when I left home.

It's great when the two teams that I follow(currently), besides my Cowboys are picked to lose this weekend. If that happens I'll be done with fb for the 2010 season.

Have a great weekend!

Riley hits 13 on Saturday.

Johneys gets dedicated next Wednesday at Hilton. Then we play Kansas...the outcome of that game may define our season, I hope it's close.

Tradition http://www.bddev.com/blog/Chad/index.php?entry=entry110105-095842 These Drivers 'Win The Lottery' For Driving Under The Speed Limit

Whith all the so called technology advancements(sure most are very nice, but at what cost to humanity and the envirnoment??). traditions have become a thing of the past...want it now not later, twitter this, forget what happened 5 minutes ago what is happening right now....etc, etc,etc....Remember.. Those Who Forget History Are Doomed to Repeat It" ...usually the bad stuff.....

Austin played decent last night, but they were schooled by Ankeny. Jamie played fine, I was kinda surprised by most of the 3-pointers he threw up there with absolutely no form...one of two of them were thrown up with two hands. Maybe he was just having a bad game. It will be fun to see them play in the spring together, when they actually have decent coaching.
Us parents don't know what we can do. We don't mind losing, but our coaches can't coach. Even Becky felt sorry for what she saw....and of course this is at all levels. Several of the varsity are seriously wanting to leave the team, because they can't deal with the atrocious and unintelligent coaching that Indinaola boys basketball teams are dealing with. The thing that really bothers me is this freshman team is one of the better teams Indianola has had for some time and they are not going to be able to play at their full potential.


SUPER IMPRESSIVE...This kid should easily make the pros if he doesn't have any problems.


Deep Thought of the Day: If a kid asks where rain comes from, I think a cute thing to tell him is "God is crying." And if he asks why God is crying, another cute thing to tell him is "Probably because of something you did.".

Basketball in full swing..... http://www.bddev.com/blog/Chad/index.php?entry=entry110104-112855
Indians beat Creston last night. Austin had a very nice game. He had the most; points, assists, rebounds, and fouls for his team last night. I feel so sorry for the kids, they have one of the most talented teams Indianola has had for a while and horrible coaching. What kind of coach allows kids to continuously drive through presses instead of passing the ball to the open guys? Just one problem. Won't say anything about the referee actually picking on Austin . They play Jamie and the very good Ankeny team tonight....

The boys and I played alot of basketball over the holiday at the Y.

We won, where was Christopherson?

The A-Team was pretty decent. The actors were perfect fits to the originals!

Cool video of the step-by-step process of making a football. My only question is; how boring would it be to be performing these jobs for 30 some years??

I Guess It's Politically Incorrect http://www.bddev.com/blog/Chad/index.php?entry=entry110104-100302
In a pub quiz the other day I lost by just two points. The question was where do women mostly have curly hair? Apparently, it's Africa.

One of the other questions was to name two things commonly found in cells. It appears that "Blacks" and "Hispanics" is not the correct answer.

A new Muslim clothing shop opened in Burlington, but I've been banned from it after asking to look at some bomber jackets.

You can say lots of bad things about pedophiles - but at least they drive slowly in school zones.

A biker goes to the doctor with hearing problems. "Can you describe the symptoms to me?" asked the doctor. "Yes. Homer is a fat yellow lazy bastard and Marge is a skinny bird with big blue hair."

I just put a deposit down on a brand new Porsche and mentioned it on Facebook. I said, "I can't wait for the new 911 to arrive!" Next thing I know 4,000 Muslims have asked to be my friend!

Being a righteous man, when I checked into my hotel on a recent trip I said to the lady at the registration desk, "I hope the porn channel in my room is disabled." To which she replied, "No, it's regular porn - you sick bastard!" ]]>
