Scientists are predicting that MSH will blow sometime very soon. The forrest service's servers have been overloaded with all the activity this is generating on the internet.

What's the next best thing to being able to go to Ted Drewes for some custard? Being able to go to the Grocery store that is two minutes away to buy prepackaged Ted Drewes! I don't know why I didn't think about that before, but in the past week I think I've had Drewes 3 times, all from the Schnuck's right up the...
I let pylon out a few minutes ago, next thing I know I hear something weird squeeking outside. Looks like we got Rabbit number 2 tonight. He got one back in February I think, but it was still alive and kicking, and as far as I can tell once I put it outside the fence it left, or something else came and got it. The rabbit tonight didn't fare near as lucky.
I went out there and it sounded like pylon had a toy in his mouth, I heard a clicking, well, that was bones....
Finally got him to drop the rabbit, which at first seemed to still be alive, though not moving. I sat him over the fence, went in and grabbed a flash light and some paper towels. As far as I could tell upon return he was dead :( poor little guy. I was afraid I was going to have to kill him myself, which I didn't want to...
I love non-alcoholic egg nog. And now I love the McDonald's Egg Nog milk shakes!!!! I grabbed one yesterday, and had to stop by there on the way back from lunch today to get another one! Darn good stuff they have going on...
Why in search results is this web page dropping?????

CNN has an article about earthquakes along the New Madrid fault. It's an interesting read, though not likely. I guess I can say I'm just glad to not work downtown anymore! and I'll keep parking the Tbird in the carport and the Z in the...
So you're wondering how to get yourself an Xbox360 before Christmas? Here's a few tips.
Take 1:
On November 21st, head to your local Best Buy, Wal Mart or Circuit City, Target, Kmart.
Take warm clothes, some food, and a comfortable folding chair, you're going to be there a while.
Wait, wait, wait, until 8am on November 22nd.
Go in the store and buy one! If you're lucky enough to be one of the few in line that will get one.
Take 2.
Bid on one on Ebay.
Take 3.
Try finding one on Black Friday. (yeah good luck with that.)
Take 4.
Wait till after Christmas!

If you want to live life on the edge, choose to live in St. Louis!

St. Louis was rated as the 3rd most dangerous city to live in for the United States. That's great. I'm glad Missouri has a Conceal and Carry law nowadays!
I've seen this crime first hand, I had my Camaro broken into while I worked downtown a few years ago. Car theft in the city is horrible, kids do it for fun, and then they don't get punished for getting caught, which doesn't really help to deter them from doing it...
Christmas was good this year! Natalie and I both spoiled each other rotten!
I just installer her new car stereo into the F350. The stock stereo was hurting! It only had AM/FM, no CD or Tape! I got her a nice Sony CD Player for the dash, two new kicker speakers for the front doors, and an XM Roady2 for the must have Satellite radio. There's no Sirius in this household, down with Howard Stern and Sirius Radio! I installed the CD player this evening and made sure everything worked. It's a very clean install, you have to love Crutchfield for including everything you could need to install a radio ordered from them. The new CD player went right in the old unit's place courtesy of the Crutchfield mounting hardware.
I also picked up some fine jewelery from Krekeler Jewelers for Natalie's Christmas gifts. Thanks to Jeff for all the help picking a few nice things out!
Natalie spoiled me with some new Oakleys, a cool North Face Jacket, and the Klipsch floor speakers I'd been asking for! The new speakers sound amazing in front of the 50" plasma! I've ordered the Klipsh C-3 center channel speaker from Best Buy using some great gift cards I received. Sometime later this year I'll get the new receiver and 4 surround sound speakers to complete my new and improved home theater setup.
My parents sent me money to purchase an aircompressor and some tools for the garage, so I was out looking at Sears today. I did realize however, I'm going to need to take the truck next time I go, as the air compressors won't fit in the 350Z!
Thanks to everyone for the great Christmas. Natalie and I spent our first of many Christmas' together, hopefully next year we'll be able to see our parents though, it was my first Xmas away from my family :(
More to come in...

If you're looking for some good Mexican food, DON'T go to Zapatas on Manchester Road!
We, the office, went there the day they opened, for lunch, to give them a shot. The food was horrible, no one enjoyed their meals. I figured, maybe, just maybe, that was just a bad day to go, the first day a place is open.
So, a month later, I tried it again last night. We went there for dinner. It was STILL HORRIBLE. The food is just very low quality, high prices and the chips both times tasted burnt.
So, if you are looking for a restaurant on Manchester road for some good Mexican, I suggest trying one of the other places. Senor Pique's (sp?) down near Sulpher Springs Road is a good start, I've eaten there twice in the past two weeks and it's been great food and service both times.
Don't eat at Zapata's, trust...
I haven't woot'd in quite a while. Darn impulse buys.
I just woot'd. Picked up a new Vacuum! It's robotic, and self charging, so hopefully it'll work well to keep the dog hair down around here. The thing we'll have to watch out for is how Pylon will react to it.
I'm predicting he'll try to eat...
Google even tells me so!
