Saturday Night is Live from New York

Thank goddness. As Stephen so kindly pointed out on Down with the Tubes, the writters strike is over. It costed Los Angeles hundreds of millions without any new television, but, the pain is over. The writers are done whining, and this Saturday, February 23rd is the first new SNL since the strike. Tina Fey is hosting with musical guest Carrie Underwood. (ugh) Make sure you all tune in so the ratings go up that much more! Yeah!!!!!

King of Pong

I love Ping Pong. I love slam shots, curve shots, and low serves. I love playing it with my family and friends and I like testing their abilities.

It was especially interesting when I went to Maine. Since Mainers (or Mainahs) are snowed in for the winter, they have to find things to do inside that are fun, entertaining, and get you moving. Seemingly every house I was at had a Ping Pong table. I had to learn fast. But eventually I could beat my dad (still not a huge accomplishment). So, my awesome uncle got onto http://craigslist.com and got me a ping pong table for forty bucks! I was going to build one since that is a fraction of the cost to buy a new one, but since my uncle would be thoroughly involved in that process, he wanted a few weeks to get one for me on craigslist.

Now, I am going to my basement to play a round against my mom, but I have to try easy.

Here are some links to some awesome Ping Pong videos. The pros are crazy good!

Super Bummer

Dang! My favorite team, the New England Patriots lost in a close game to the New York Giants on Sunday. I am kind of tied to the Patriots because my parents are from NE. I am sad, but the Giants were the better team in the end. There's always next year...
Anyways, g2g, I need to do some homework...
