turns out is was my girlfriends mom. I was saying some very bad thing I never wanted a lady to hear me say. Not to my GF but to her prison bond nephew giving her folks a hard time.

I learned that in the NFL a player cannot illegally 'kick' a ball out of bounds to prevent the other team from recovering the 'fumbled' ball. Never knew that one. Illegal kick. That's what I learned today.

I learned that football has started and most likely delaying the start of The Amazing Race every Sunday, requiring me to adjust DVR settings to record an extra hour just in case, eating up twice as much drive space.

I would. To quote the great Kellen Winslow Jr., and I use that term extremely loosely, "It's war...I'm a soldier!"
