Has anyone seen this movie yet? I’m thinking of taking my team to go see it. There are a few events throughout my childhood that I vividly remember and that hockey game is one of them. I just remember the joy of our team winning, against the Russians even, but what I remember most is the reactions of the grown-ups around me. And I didn’t realize at the time how important this win was to the American Spirit with so many other bad things going on.

Jackson style…everyone else is talking about it, so why not.
And I’ll be darned if I didn’t miss it.
So was it offensive? I’m curious to hear others opinions about Janet’s “exposee” sort to speak…

We rely on technology more and more every day. Is that a good thing?
Right now, looks like my TiVo may be down for the count and I’m scared! How will I survive? I’ve come to rely so much on that damn thing. And my wife, who wasn’t too sure about it in the first place, is more scared than me, I think.
What piece of technology have you become maybe a little too reliant on?

I love to read. And that’s going to be a topic of a future post, but I simply crave information.
One topic that I could alway use help in is finances. Anyone have any good sources of financial information?
I have read a couple of the Motley Fool books…those guys are great and their web site is a good source of info too.
Also, one of my high school buddies has been running his financial portal web site for some time now. Check out InvestmentSeek.com

Happy New Year everyone! A little late, I know but things have been busy lately. Sorry for the sparse postings through the holidays but hopefully things will quiet down a bit now.

Hope everyone had a safe and happy holiday season!!
Now we’re looking forward to 2004…the start of a new year!
What do you want to see happen in 2004? On a personal or global scale.
I’d like to keep in better touch with my friends and family. Sending out Christmas cards I realized there are some very dear friends that I basically only “talk” to once a year.

So I changed the poll and added this entry as a place to discuss the poll.
I, personally, am undecided. I feel there are too many things here to warrant a clear cut answer.
I don’t think the situation was handled well from the get-go, but once we were there, the operation was a huge success. Oh, except for not finding the weapons of mass destruction we were told were there. Then, Saddam was out of power, but what do we do now? A lot of US lives were lost after Saddam was removed.
Now, Saddam is captured…where do we go from here? Iraq is going to have to stand on their own two feet sometime so should we bring our men and women home now? I say yes.
Osama must be found for me to consider this thing a “success”.

This time of year is also a time for travel…lots of travel. Thankfully, we aren’t traveling much this holiday season. It just worked out that everyone has come or is coming to see us for both Thanksgiving and Christmas.
So what I want to know…how’s the traveling going? Any good stories or horror stories to share?

So you know from the site name I’m a Letterman fan…
What about the “new” Dave? The kinder, gentler Dave now that he’s a father.
Anyone notice he is still wearing the hospital bracelet from the birth? It’s coming up on 1 month now…cut it off and put it in the scrapbook.
