TC the Terrible

Random thoughts time.

A couple of weeks ago I went to the Food Court for lunch with one of the guys from the office.  We noticed a lot of people wearing cheap backpacks with funny logos.  Upon closer inspection, the logo read “Community-Based Abstinence Program”.  Which made us wonder if the entire community had to pledge to not get laid?  Turns out that it is a bona-fide government program to keep kids from having sex.  Great idea, but isn’t that what parents and church youth league volleyball are supposed to do?
TaB is back.  Yippee.  One of the neighborhood moms drank this stuff when I was a kid.  If memory serves, gasoline out of a lawnmower tasted better.  At least the new version is pink and comes in a cool looking can.  I guess we can consider that progress.

Labor negotiations aside, the Redskins are still screwed at quarterback.  Brunell is about to fall apart so he knows this is the last real money contract he’s going to get.  How can you blame the guy for not wanting to re-negotiate?  Ramsey is a done deal for Coach Gibbs, (really this was old news two years ago), but the ‘Skins are still crapping on him.  Sure, they are letting him shop around for a new team, but they won’t commit to trading him.  It’s time Gibbs did the right thing by this kid and takes whatever the Jets/Dolphins offer for him.

If CBS really was pissed (as they should have been) about Stern pimping his gig on Sirius on their network why didn’t they just take him off the air then?  Granted, they did for a day or two, but that was it.  If they wanted to hit him where he lives, they could have suspended Stern, with pay, for the entire time causing the buzz over his move to satellite radio to cool off tremendously.  Watching how this lawsuit plays out is going to be fun.

And I don’t really care where the profits are going, some one is going to burn in hell over this one.

Back with more later.

It’s THE BOY’s birthday today.  He’s a full hand plus a finger.  Of course he’s pumped about the gi-normous amount of gifts he’s getting, but THE WOMAN does not share his joy.  In Mommy-Land it is a sad day when it takes more than one hand to show the age of your baby.  Personally, I think it’s upsetting to her because his getting older is a reflection of her own progress in that direction.

The party is this Friday night at the local Chucky Cheese.  RSVP by COB today if you haven’t already.  At least one of the dad’s attending is bound to get liquored up and try to take out the big rat.  Should be fun.

Back with more later.
