Home again, Home again, Jiggitty Jig

Went down to Chicago this weekend for the Annual Cub's game, and had a ball. I had to check every seat to make sure they were well secured and in fine working order. Also hung out with some family as well. AND WATCHED THE DARK KNIGHT FOR THE SECOND TIME!!!!

Pics and video are available!

Ain't life grand?

So I'm leaving work yesterday. I've got my helmet on as I'm walking out the back door. There's my coworker Pete having a smoke. Time for some fun.

I start laughing loud and boisterous and go head first into the chain link fence, not once, but twice.
Then I go around him, and his smoking buddy, and hit the fence one more time for good measure, before heading home on the bike.

So I get in this morning. Pete had gone to the security cameras and pulled the footage!!!!!

I don't feel so good...

Today was the first (annual?) hot dog eating contest at work.
I signed up and began my training. Eating a little more than usual for a few days.
Let me repeat that, Eating a little more than usual for a few days.

I came in 3rd with 7 dogs (with buns) in 3 minutes.

Don't believe me? See it for yourself!

Sometimes I frighten myself

In an email exchange with one of my oldest friends, Professor Harrington, he sends me this picture and asks "can you name the location?"

I fire back with "Swamp castle from Monty Python and the Quest for the Holy grail?"

"You, my friend, are a winner... this angle might be better...

It is actually the castle that they used for the whole movie (different sides).

It is Doune Castle in Scotland... I just got back from 5 weeks in Europe, but I didn't want to ruin the "photo quiz."

You rock..."


So now, all I can think of is "Fetchez la vache!"
