Florida Trip

Fla last Thursday thru Monday, checked out a lot of places of which was Iron Maiden drummer Nicko McBrain's "Rock n Roll Ribs". Maiden flight 666 was on the dvd as me and my sister munched on fall off the bone baby backs and what has become the best pulled pork sandwich I ever had. Place had several pieces of memorabilia that were quite interesting.

Spent some time in the seminole casino for a donation amongst the dance of the dead. Mental note, don't live in fla when I'm retired.

Visited former Dolphin Bob Brudzinski's "Brus Room" grill and bar for a few. Good place to watch a game

Off to Key West on Friday morning. Finally got to see real blue water like on TV, which was cool . Then we hit Duval Street and the famous Sloppy Joes. Smelled like a mixture of puke, beer and Jaegermeister.

Had some beers and raw bar at a place called Jacks Seafood House. Off to the Marriott Key West for a night stay and dinner at the #1 rated restaurant on Key West, ToWN & Tavern...good stuff, but I could have done without the guitar player up my ass while I ate.








Headed back to the mainland saturday morning and had lunch at this outdoor fish warehouse on Islamorada Key. Pretty nice outdoor seafood bar .




All in all, good visit and adventure, ending up in a tornado warning. I live in Ohio all my life and it takes a trip to florida to be in one. We made it but it was a little scary. Touched down in pompano , close by.

A little late, but

Z returns to the Cavaliers

Overtime Changes?

OK, so the NFL owners approve overtime changes for the playoffs, 28-4. The change goes like this, keep in mind, playoffs only:

if a team wins the coin toss and then kicks a field goal, the other team gets the ball. If that next series ends with another field goal, play will continue under the current sudden-death rules.

If the team winning the toss immediately scores a touchdown, however, the game is over.
I don't mind change, but change should go for the regular season too.

For the record, the only reason they are doing this is because Favre threw that pick in January when his old ass should have ran for the 5 yards to put the Vikes in FG range.

Z is back, Duke moves on to the Sweet 16, Big Joe signs for 184 million, Nathan is done for the season.

I love betting pizza

Sunday Morning Coffee Song




Since the new season of Family Jewels starts tonight, thought this was appropriate. One of my favorite  Kiss tunes of all time.

So, catchin up, got Maiden tickets yesterday for July 15th. Mr Santarelli is in for a treat I don't think he is ready for.




Nice to see March Madness is kickin in with all the upsets. Sports is the best reality TV out there . Took a vacation day to follow the madness as the Vegas trip never materialized so I made the best of it. Word to the wise, don't go to TGIFridays if you have the slightest of buzz's on. The Fridays house mother will have her eye on you.

Monday, Bloody Monday

Heard a real good interview with WASP's Blackie Lawless tonight on Eddie Trunk Live.




Good move by Mr Potatohead keeping LB on the sideline tonight. Got a win and now he will have a week of rest on that ankle. Delonte is just fearless

If Ben did it, start the Dennis Dixon era
