Imagine my surprise this weekend when I stumbled across the NFL Network’s replay of the Falcons 23 – 28 defeat at the hands of the Dolphins third, fourth, and umpteenth reserves. NFL Network in my living room? I say Christmas just came early. Charter and NFL Network have announced a new, long-term agreement for carriage [...]
As they say in the Old Country, I shall not be posting for a few days, hopefully lifting up a few pints of new previously undiscovered deliciousness during my travels. I don’t think there is anything worse than international travel. Arrive at the ATL airport super early because the kiosk either will not read my [...]
I guess it was bound to happen; our 3.5+ year old laptop met a cruel fate, as the HDD suffered a catastrophic failure. What a mess; one of these days I will learn to do a better job of backups. I do at work, but not so much at home, as my most recent full [...]
Hope everyone has a great holiday weekend – baseball, cold blue cans of wonderment, and of course eye candy. Glod bless America! I have had a great long weekend – plenty of gaming action, two cookouts, and family movie night with the third Pirates Blu-ray. Today we are doing an extended family lunch at our [...]
To all you gaming dads out there; this day is for you. Line up some of your favorite activities, make sure the fridge is stocked with your favorite cold beverage, and of course make sure you spend some quality time on your videogame console with your kids. What better way to pass along your gift [...]
I have not offered up a T&A post in a while, and the ‘eye candy’ tag is short of short on excitement these days, so without further ado, from the ‘what’s next from those crazy kids in Japan’ category – Dancing Eyes. Undress with success? For what it is worth, I found both of these [...]
OK, I admit it. I am a Junior fan; really wanted Earnhardt Jr. to win the Coca-Cola 600 last night. With that said, Earnhardt’s last win (104 or so races back) at Michigan (June 15, 2008) was a fuel mileage win. Not that those should not count; they should and of course do. I just [...]
Could you ask for a better day of racing? Monaco was fantastic; would Alonso have managed a pass on Vettel if the red flag didn’t come out? Can you imagine how long JR Hilderbrand is going to think about doing things differently in turn 4 at Indy? As the hotter than heck day turns to [...]
Has the great question finally been answered? According to a NASA scientist, we are not alone; there is life out there, at least it fossil form via meteorite. “Given the controversial nature of his discovery, we have invited 100 experts and have issued a general invitation to over 5,000 scientists from the scientific community to [...]
As I sit on my screen porch, writing this article, waiting for the Dawgs Liberty Bowl match-up with UCF, it is 72F, which makes this winter “Now Drinking” edition rather strange. I wanted to get in one last beer special before 2011, so without further ado, here are some current choices. Young’s Double Chocolate Stout [...]
I fondly remember a time and place were one could say Merry Christmas without offending every Tom, Dick, or Harry, but that bygone era is … well … gone. Christmas Cheer has been replaced with generic “… Wishing you and yours a joyous Holiday Season …” I suppose from a “we should not exclude or [...]
Before I put the bird in the oven, wanted to wish you and yours a great Thanksgiving! May the Grace of the Lord continue to Bless this great country, family, and friends.
It is hard to believe that Calvert Games posted its first content September 27, 2001. That would be nine years ago for those of you mathematically challenged. Color me pleased with this mighty fine run.
Who knew September was Bourbon Heritage Month? While none of these sit on the top of my shelf, I am always up for a good sipping Bourbon. My favorites? Knobb Creek, Markers Mark, Wild Turkey 101, and Jim Beam Black. What’s in the fridge right now, for my football drinking pleasure? Miller Lite Home Draft [...]
Cold ones. Adult Beverages. Nectar of the gods. You, know, beer. I am not sure where this tailgating beer article is coming from, but as is often the case, the comments are f’ing hilarious. Certainly more entertaining that reading about the beers that are not available in these parts. I have not decided on my [...]
