Zero hour, Michael. It's the end of the line. I'm the firstborn. I'm sick of playing second fiddle. I'm always third in line for everything. I'm tired of finishing fourth. Being the fifth wheel. There are six things I'm mad about, and I'm taking over.

The drawback to marital longevity is your wife always knows when you're really interested in her and when you're just trying to bury it.

Just got back from playing in a flag football game.  Played alright.  First time I've played organized football in a while so my wind wasn't where it should have been... but one thing is perfectly clear... without a shadow of a doubt. 


I'm not fast anymore.


I'm just not.  In HS and college, I used to pride myself on my speed.  Never the biggest guy around, but through football and running track... my speed was something I could be proud of.  But one play out there told me that I have definitely lost a step or five.

End of the 1st half, they had just scored and were going for the extra point.  I'm sitting at OLB, and they throw to a receiver in my zone.  The ball's a little high so the guy has to jump for it and basically can only tip it.  The ball's in the air... and I'm right there to pick it off and I'm going the other way.  Believe me when I tell you that mentally, I got into "Lito Sheppard mode" and had visions of taking it all the way back.  The QB was the only one I had to beat.  Looking at this guy, I'm pretty confident I can outrun him.  He's a bigger guy... got some weight on him.  He has a good angle on me so I give him a little stutter step to throw him off.  I saw him go for it and slow down.  That's my cue to throw it into the next gear and leave him behind, right?

Wrong.

There was no next gear.  Just the same ol' speed which I thought was about 3/4 my full speed.  As he's getting closer and closer to me, I'm thinking, "WTF?" so I just try to run towards the pilon to create some space.  That got me a few more yards, but he ended up getting to me before I could get to the end zone so no points for the good guys.

Now I'm about 7 years removed from college, but if this was even 3 years ago... I would have blown by that guy.  Instead, I got "tackled" and my hammy and feet hurt like hell.  Since the athletic ability isn't what it used to be... I guess I have to rely on "savvy" to get it done.  Which means that I'm pretty much farged from here on out.  Depressing as hell.

Cut wood? A cabin with 15 guys? Did you invite hbionic to this homo retreat?

You must be bored out of you found a typo so hilarious that you felt the need to share it with us.  Putz.



P.S.  I like the commericals you make for beef jerky.  Especially the one where those guys make you pee on yourself when you're sleeping.  That's funny.
