Haahahahahahahahahahah. Agreed. I don't get that show.

Says the man from Detroit that lives in Milwaukee. Hope you remember to put out you "Stop the Assault Against Wisconsin Workers" sign. Your life is like a commercial for the UAW and AFSCME

I had zero say in living either place. You're the one who wants to crash at my place on you're monthly visits to Madison to save a tree or protest a war etc.

Aren't you a teamster?

My neighbor has a "stop the assault against Wisconsin Families" sign in here yard. When I explained that that's exactly what was done, she got pissed and said I must be a 1% er. um hello, if I'm a 1% er and your my next door neighbor what would you be?

Ha, nice.

Awful. They mean well, but West Texas sucks, and Midland and Odessa are an entirely different planet.

Tell them I'm sorry they had to live there, its definitely not the finer side of Texas. Typically not well educated, ranch hands or roughnecks, who have nothing to do but watch the Cowboys and HS football.

Midland has a good JUCO golf team though, and apparently Midland Country Club is an OK course, but that's about it.

I'm going to Austin next week. It'll be my second visit. I had a blast there the first time. Any suggestions on places to go?

I'm trying to come up with something to do, after my football career is over. I have been dabbling a bit in poetry and would like to know what you guys think:

::Broken Limbs::

A seedling, misplaced in the fractured soil,
reaching for the warmth of the summer's sun

A sapling, turned upwards towards the breaking sky
reaching for the clouds with wings spread wide.

A tree, with the girth of a swollen nipple;
erect, with sturdy limbs.

The pass was high, almost trapped by the Moss,
which gently rides the moist backsides of my branches

The ball slips through the Moss' buttery hands
landing on the weak branches below.
I break. My limbs break. I cry. ,... I cry for Bunchen

She does not respond. I am alone. My days are alone,
I cry. I cry . I cry

Thank you for reading my poem. I know there will be a life after football, and I believe that life to be as a
Poemist. I am not just a football player.. I am a real person! Just like all of you

For parties, 6th street is awesome.

For food, my favorite places are Trudy's and Torchy's Tacos for mexican. Sullivan's is a phenomenal steak place, but it's pretty pricey, and same for Ruth Chris. It's pretty hard to go wrong though, even the taco stands in town are usually pretty good.

If the weather isn't bad, I suggest going to the Greenbelt to watch the sunset on the river. It's gorgeous, and it's always nice to go for a short hike.

For golf, I've only played UT Golf Club, which is a LONG but very good course. You should call if you want to try and swing it, but no guarantees they'll let you out there. There's some really good courses in the area though.

EDIT: For the view, Oasis is great, but the food isn't very good. Coming from my brother who went to school there until two years ago, Cain's on the river is a great spot to go. Matt's El Rancho, or Maudi's is also a good spot if you're not looking to drink.

Hope this helps

You're missing out, I'm obsessed with it.

I didn't get it until I started playing, but now that I have I can't stop. It's my drug.

Yeah, I'm awful at it. Don't mind watching it every now and then, but it's just no fun to play.

I was that way up until a year and a half ago. Once I got the basics down all I wanted to do way get back out on the course to get better. I also hate being bad at anything I try so that could have something to do with it.

Since this is off topic board.. anybody got any new funny youtube videos?
