Recapping Recaps

Hectic. That is what I have been all this week with my sister going in tomorrow for a planned C-Section and with my wife now being under 5 weeks out from Girl #2. From nurseries to new things I am swamped and work has been adding a whole new dimension of FUBAR as well. However, I need to get back on track for my own sanity so let me review last Friday's List point by point so I can move on--


  1. Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest--Watched it, loved it, reviewed it, done.
  2. Painting--Rocking chair done. Working on a night stand which is turning out brilliantly so far. Much, much more enjoyable than I ever would have thought. I might be bold enough to start re-painting the basement as well but I am not sure. Painting was never my thing.
  3. Weber Cleaning--33% done. Not too motivated on this on but maybe I will give it another go this week. Any suggestions from the 2-3 people who read this fucking thing?
  4. Mosley vs. Vargas II--Watched it, surprisingly liked it, reviewed it, done.
  5. Dusty Baker Watch--Still going nowhere. Is a conspiracy at work in regards to Chris Speier's arrest and subsequent leave of absence. This whole thing is shit this year. Go Bears and good bye Qasim Mitchell.
  6. Outfoxed: Rupert Murdoch's War on Journalism--Watched it, slightly enjoyed it, not surprised by it, reviewed it. Fuck O'Reilly. Done.
  7. Garden Blogging--Dropped the ball on this one but I am enjoying some fantastic vegetables right now and so are my co-workers and neighbors. Eggplants and Tomatoes are right around the corner. This will get done this weekend.
  8. Reading Material--My grade here is incomplete. Too much of everything else to catch up here. This weekend will be a push.
  9. Hook Up--Closer but not yet done. This weekend should conclude it all.
  10. Uncrate--Skimmed but not digested.

A lot more things to do of course this weekend regarding the nursery and general house stuff but highlights include--

  • Clerks II--Hell Yes.
  • Carlos Baldomir vs. Arturo Gatti Welterweight Title Fight--This is on HBO this Saturday at 9pm (Not PPV). This is my pick for fight of the year as this is going to a crazy brawl with Gatti going balls out as normal in his backyard (AC) against this crazy fucking Argentinean. People please watch this one.

I, too, own and operate a Weber grill. Man, do they cook the best or what?!

Sadly, mine is filthy. I just call that "extra flavor".

I am going with that as well but mine is getting nasty. I will admit now though that I did switch to a Weber gas grill 2 years ago and my charcoal one is only used for camping now.

That is a good one. I might try that out for the major pieces. Thanks mat.
