Screw Freebirds, or, Why It's Okay to Get Angry

Posted on April 04, 2008
When burritos first came out as another option for fast food, I was thrilled. The idea seemed perfect to me. A burrito with the right ingredients is way healthier than most of the other options. Plus, it tasted good. For...

A Couple of Other Shits

Posted on March 21, 2008
Every now and then I think I have an idea that is really, really good. I've had a few ideas for inventions lately that I think would be awesome. I can't write here what they are for risk of some...

Posted on March 20, 2008
So here's a few things to kill time with before the tournament starts: This is some seriously funny shit. A few things that are not cool: $3.30 a gallon gas, tramp stamps on dudes, being the golden boy governor of...

The Madness

March Madness is upon us. I have really come to enjoy the bracket contests over the last few years. I've got mine about 90% filled out. Here are my takes: General One thing I've heard repeatedly that I've taken to...

HLSR

Went to see John Fogerty at the Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo on Wednesday night. The way it's set up is the doors to the stadium open up at 6:45 and the rodeo goes on for a couple of hours....

34

Posted on March 11, 2008
I turned 34 years old on Sunday. It's weird to look at that number and think that's the number of years I've been around. 34 seems like a lot, when you're talking about years living. A lot has happened during...

Redeye Update

Posted on February 26, 2008
An important national holiday passed without a mention here. February 12th was SI Swimsuit Edition rollout. Let me just say, Johnny Damon's wife is pretty hot. And just when I thought Alessandra Ambrosio was going to be my new favorite...

Traffic Court

TTC 69

Posted on February 05, 2008
I received an email forward a few days ago from some concerned citizens regarding the Trans-Texas Corridor, and specifically about the creation of one component of the project, I-69. I haven't done a whole lot of research on the project,...

Redeye Predictions

Posted on January 30, 2008
Since I did so well with my college football nat'l championship prediction I thought I'd test out my prognostication skills on some other things: Texas will land Darrell Scott. The basic pros/cons of the decision are out there - CU...

Cursed Winter Ambition

Posted on January 16, 2008
Winter should be all about hot soup or chili, fires in the fireplace, hot chocolate, sex and cuddling under thick blankets, reading books by the fire and sleeping in. I bet that's what it was like for the Indians. Instead,...

Nat'l Championship Prediction

Posted on January 07, 2008
LSU 38, OSU 17 You heard it hear first, folks. I think LSU is the far superior team. They've got more speed, more depth, more weapons, more animals on their team that OSU. This one isn't even going to be...

Bowl Season The things I'm most happy about this bowl season (besides Texas' win over ASU) are Hawaii losing badly to Georgia in the Sugar and Illinois losing badly to USC in the Rose. Hawaii was exposed as exactly what...

Ojo Rojo on...

Roger Clemens My problem with the whole Mitchell report is that they could have said anything, anything, and who can call it into question. The sum total of its legitimacy comes solely from former Senator Mitchell's reputation. And he has...

Redeye Update 12/18/07

Posted on December 18, 2007
There are some truths about the world that I'd really like to know. The current hottest one on my list is, "Whether generic products are the same or as good as their name-brand counterparts." I was dying for a new...

Results for the San Marcos Solo Race are up here. Not shown is my previous best time of 3h6min that I achieved in a much slower boat. There were two factors: the river was flowing a lot higher and faster...
