holidays in the midwest were nice this year. white christmas, jack frost nipping at your nose and all that other good stuff. now where is the button i push to melt all this crap?
i still think ice fishing is just another excuse to drink.
remember the warped sense of excitement & panic you would get as a kid when you walked slowly across the ice and heard some cracking? kind of like pushing a loose tooth with your tongue. continue? stop? just one more step. just one more push. memories.
the only ice i hear cracking today is when my warm amaretto goes over the rocks in my glass.
ok, WHO still has old metal ice cube trays with the pull handle to release the cubes?
you know it's cold outside when you don't see a squirrel. those little bastards are everywhere most of the time.
i also have a show to offer to rod blagojevich. it's the morning dj at WDOC, the department of corrections radio station.
i'm constantly amused by cub fans and their eternal optimism. they have very little knowledge of baseball but you can't question their loyalty, blind as it may be. if you think i'm kidding, try and get a ticket to the cub convention which is held every january in sub-zero chicago.
the oscar for best actor will be either jeff bridges or george clooney. tough choice.
i wish they posted the vote totals for the academy awards.
want a sure thing? bet the mortgage on CHRISTOPHER WALTZ for best supporting actor for his exciting performance as the evil nazi colonel hans landa in 'inglorius basterds."
think you might be getting a little older? try looking at the list of nominees for this year's grammys and see how many names you recognize. ouch.
both of my nephews are currently hiding from the locals down in florida. they relocated from chicago a couple of weeks ago and the sunshine state promptly had their coldest weather in 55 years. the grove owners are still throwing black oranges at nephew john's car.
i get a little more nauseous each time brett favre wins a playoff game.
why is online poker against the law but poker machines in taverns is soon to be ok?
do they still call them taverns?
where i grew up, one of the most popular taverns was called 'ding & fuzz.' i kid you not.
the most exciting 'club' was the american legion because you could climb all over the tank in the parking lot until an adult yelled, "do you want to break a leg?" sure i do.....right after i say 'yes' to the famous question asked by every parent as they raised their hand, "do you want something to really cry about?"
59 days until spring. stay warm.

I saw on one of the news stations how one of the previous owners of an online poker company ripped of millions of dollars from people. He had a code that could let him see everyone elses hand . If that is just one site , I bet the other sites have this option also.
Is the White Sox convention sold out ?
The two most exciting hockey teams to watch , the Blackhawks and the Capitals. I am still a big Hawk fan living in DC . The sold out their convention in the middle of summer 90 degrees and talking hockey.
greg---the poker cheat was one company but i always wondered about that too. who knows what program they've written? tough to lose when you can see the down cards!
