Best Buy

So I got a Best Buy credit card like three years ago, I've never put anything on it. I don't know why I never put anything on it but that is a good thing. I also don't know why I haven't tried to close the account sooner. Nonetheless, I tried to close it today and when I called to close it I found out that my account has been removed from their system and my account is inactive. So I told the lady, "well I just want to close it because I've never put anything on it". So she says to me, "I can't close it, the only way to close it is to write a letter stating that I want to close the account". Then I asked her if she meant like a hand written letter. She replied "YES, let me give you the address you can send it to". I quickly cut her off and said, " no thanks I don't need the address because I will not be writing a letter to close this account". Then I told her that it was ridiculous. She replied "yeah, I'm sorry". Oh yeah, everything she said was in broken English might I add. Anyway, I quickly told her thanks and hung up. I'll put a Snickers bar on that card to reactivate it before I write a letter to close my account.

So I'f you get a Best Buy card either keep a balance on it or cancel it. Or you can just do like me and give your buisness to someone else.

UNC

Just to re-cap......I hate UNC with an almighty burning passion that will probably never end!!!!

Tiger

So Tiger Woods wins again today, not that he is on a winning streak though. This is his first win since his knee surgery. It wasn't just a normal win though, he was 5 shots down going into the final round today. Saun O'hair was sitting pretty with a 5 shot lead over Tiger. The worst thing O'hair did was get out of the bed, he shot a 73 and Tiger shot a 67. Oh yeah and Tiger sinks like a 25 foot putt on the 18th hole to win, I mean really. I didn't get to see the likes of Sam Snead, Ben Hogan, Jack Nicklaus, and Arnold Palmer. But I think it's safe to say he is the greatest golfer to walk the face of this earth and I can't wait to tell my kids and grand kids about him.

NBA

Well Duke lost, excuse me....Duke got BLOWN out by Villanova who will now play Pitt.

They couldn't have beat Gaffney high Thursday night. They shot 25% from the field, you can't expect to win when you shoot that bad. I'm still going with Oklahoma winning it all.

So with that said, college basketball is over for me and now I'll really get into the rest of the NBA season. I'm a Laker, and anything lest than a NBA championship is a disappointment. Hopefully they will do better than they did last year.

Top 5 NBA players EVER:

1. Kobe Bryant
2. Lebron James (Lebron will be the best ever but I can't put him up there until he wins a Championship)
3. Michael Jordan
4. Wilt Chamberlain
5. Oscar Robertson

Random Thought #11

Well I could see the extra 15 or so bucks on my check this week, thanks to Osamabama.

I have a lot to say about the stimulus package and who is going to take advantage of it the most.
But i'm not going to get in to it, all I want to say is......Bail out, bail out, bail out.......Who's gonna bail me out????

Random Thought #10

THE 4 WAY STOP:

It's not difficult, whoever gets there first has the right of way. I know in drivers ed. there was a question that was something like...If 4 cars get to a 4 way stop at the same time, who has the right of way?? THAT NEVER HAPPENS!!!! So please if you know how to go through a 4 way stop kudos to you. If you are one of those drivers who gets to a 4 way stop and sits there, then make your decision on when to go based on movement.....GET OFF THE ROAD.

Most likely if you did not agree with the above statement, you should probably GET OFF THE ROAD

Did someone say snow?


Grassy Pond Rd. looking toward Twin Bridge Rd., that car just turned off of Twin Bridge
About 4 hours after this picture was taken there were 3 trucks that got stuck about 400 yards behind and to the left of that basketball goal.....One of them was mine.
If did this year round I'd love it, OK maybe not year round but I could deal with 10 months a year.....really


Snow dayz




Looking up our street and up the driveway, bright and early Monday morning.

Random Thought #9

So the first Chamber Address (or whatever it's called) to both the Republican and Democratic parties was last night.........
Osamabama said some good things and some bad things, and that's all I've gotta say about that!!

What I want say is about the applause and standing ovations that he got ever 7.4 seconds. He could have said that he saved a bunch of money by switching to "Geico" and he would have gotten a 3 minute standing ovation. Which is RIDICULOUS!!! The only time you should give a standing ovation is when you see a miracle happen or a U.S. soldier walks into the room. Not to be confused, I'm talking about a soldier that has put his life on the line to keep our American flag flying high and is willing to die just so me and you can walk the streets of our country free and proud.

but what do I know

THE MAN !!


"Duke" testing out the water.


Yeah that's right I named my dog "Duke"
And.........

DUKE

I don't know, I mean when they were ranked 1st they were playing like the best team in the country. Now......I have no idea how they are still in the top ten. I was planning on a Final Four appearance, who knows maybe better. I just hope they beat UNC the last game of the season and make it past the second round. Don't get me wrong though a nat'l championship would be awesome. It doesn't matter if you win every game, then lose the nat'l championship game.

Duke vs. UNC

So Duke loses another game this time to UNC at home, I just really want to throw something through a window!!! I HATE that school, that name, those colors, that town, and everything about them.

The first half of that game Duke was the best team in the country. The second half Duke would've lost to 18 and under church team. You can't go cold against anybody in D-1 like they did last night. Yes, defense wins ball games but offense wins championships!!

The ACC

I'm not surprised one bit, nope.

It doesn't surprise me at all that Clemson beats the brakes off of Duke (by 27) then lose to Florida State the very next game. That's not just it though, Clemson blew a 19 point lead!!! The ACC was the Tigers to win, they've already played UNC and Duke. All they had left to play is Wake Forest at Clemson. All you can say to explain is......it's the ACC.

2 Teams I hate the most:

1. UNC, I hate everything about those initials. If I come in contact with anything colored baby blue I literally feel like I have to wash my hands.
2. South Carolina Gamecocks (football), every year Carolina fans talk about all the recruits they got, and holler SEC title. Then they proceed to win 6 or 7 games and brag about going to a bowl game.

BlueDevils

Ok, Ok.....So Duke gets BLOWN out by 27 by a football school!!!
They're still tied for first place in the ACC and still in the top 10 in the country. But all that doesn't matter right now, the only rankings that I look at come out in April.

Where credit is due ------> Like the legendary Coach K said, "We didn't play bad, they MADE us play bad!"

Still a lot of season left!!!!!.........(please, don't run the "press" though)

UNC

Wooooooops, the Tar-wimps lost again haha. I love it!! And no i'm not getting cocky I expect UNC to beat Duke one time. Only once though then Duke will win the other of course, but still UNC is in last place in the ACC. Instead of everyone thinking they might go undefeated, they should probably start out with baby steps like just trying to make the NCAA tournament.

Tebow

Florida proved what we've known for most of the year. Don't get me wrong, I don't like Florida but Tim Tebow is the greatest COLLEGE QB I've ever seen. How's this for a resume.......

Freshman year: National title (Chris Leak was the starter but Tebow did play)
Sophomore year: No title but a Heisman Trophy will be fine
Junior year: No Heisman but another ring will be great
Senior year: ???????? What else is there?

College Basketball

Switching over to college basketball real quick with the recent happenings of last night.
How bout them Tarheels...hahahaha I love it. The all world beaters that will run the table this year and not lose a game slipped up. No surprise to me because they're not really that good they just have 2 really good players, take one away and they're nothing. I plan on seeing UNC lose 3 maybe 4 more games (Clemson, Duke, Maryland, and maybe another no name). Pitt is the new #1 and Duke moves up to the #2 spot which means absolutely nothing to me. The only ranking that matters is the final one that come out in April. UNC drops to 3 in one poll and 4 in another which is understandable. http://sports.espn.go.com/ncb/rankings They shouldn't remain #1 just about everyone has lost one game, Duke has lost one game. Although it wasn't to the team that was picked to finish 11th in the ACC like UNC AT HOME might i add. I MEAN REALLY

Tyler Hans-BUM: College level....I HATE him, he's awesome and he plays for the other team. Possible back to back player of the year and a night in, night out dominant player at that position. Pro level (NBA).....Garbage, trash, worthless. In the NBA he wouldn't play center he would play PF and would have to guard the likes of Tim Duncan, Kevin Garnett, Amare Stoudemire, Dirk Nowitzki, Kenyon Martin, and several other WAAAAAY better players.

Roy Williams : Coaches at Kansas for like 73 years wins nothing but final four t-shirts and hats that I can also get a Sagesport around May every year. Then he leaves KU, inherits a UNC team that I could've coached to a nat'l championship (he deserves no credit for that nat'l champ.)
KU has never won a nat'l championship UNTIL, ooops Roy Williams leaves KU, thanks coach. Looks like KU has finally figured out what the problem was when they kept going to the final four and no further.

I have no worries as long as Roy Williams is at UNC, I fear Davidson more!!!!

College football

Yeah so Duke was the only ACC team that wasn't bowl eligible, surprise surprise. SC and Clemson on the other hand were bowl eligible and both lost yesterday so the way I see it they did just as much as Duke....NOTHIN

The USC Trojans showed up yesterday making a statement that they should be considered for a half of the national championship which I disagree with. Oklahoma and Florida are the best 2 teams in the country and which ever wins that game deserves the nat'l champ. USC is good but OU and Florida are way better. I think that this years nat'l champ game will be an instant classic, with OU winning in a very tight high scoring game. Thats right OU wins the nat'l champ this year......final score.......Oklahoma 97
Florida 94

And lastly, they need to get rid of every bowl game except for the BCS games!!!!
There are way to many bowl games for .500 ball teams. So you go 6-6 and limp into a rinky dink, roody-poo, 99 cent and under Dollar General bowl. Just because you make it to a bowl game doesn't mean you are a good football team.
