Everlasting Love

Another Thursday, another episode of Jeff and Glenn @ 10!

This weeks topic was on-line dating horror stories so we kicked it off with Natalie Cole and Everlasting Love.

Jeff was kind enough to share some stories about his experiences with computer dating before we went to the Top 9 Worst lines on dating profiles!

Later a new feature was started as Icepick called in with his Entertainment Report.

Icepick stayed on line as we had a couple callers, including one of the worst online dating stories any of us had ever heard!

After the show stopped streaming Jeff and I wrapped things up (you can hear that part by downloading the podcast or listening on the site) and called it a week!

Tune in every Thursday at 10 at www.blogtalkradio.com/My_World!

Every picture tells a story

So I've slacked and not updated in a couple days...I have an excuse! (signed: Epstein's mom)

Michelle and I are fortunate enough to have some wonderful friends and neighbors. One in particular is gracious enough to invite us for an over night stay at a cabin owned by the company he works for.

This past Saturday we went with four other couples and spent the day riding quads, and drinking and playing cards, and eating!

Here are some pictures of the adventure!

From Cabin 022109
First thing we found out was the water line tot he cabin had frozen! The guys there spent all morning working on it and got everything up and running by 1pm!

From Cabin 022109
No, they are not playing hide and seek! LOL! Lisa (our neighbor) and Michelle are watching Lisa's dog dig for moles and are scared to death that she might actually pull one out of the ground!

From Cabin 022109
It was more than a little chilly riding of the quads but most people dressed appropriately! As shown here by my sister-in-law Michelle.

From Cabin 022109
And my brother-in-law Jim.

From Cabin 022109
The rides might be a lot quicker if everyone did stop for beverage breaks so often!

See what I mean? LOL

From Cabin 022109
This is one of the beautiful sights along the quad trails. Oh, and the Spark can was the drink of choice this past weekend. 7% alcohol with ginseng AND caffeine!

From Cabin 022109
I TOLD you it was cold!

From Cabin 022109
Now SOMETIMES people don't do the smartest things! Mark, our neighbor, told us not to run through the puddle because it was too deep. Then drove into it because someone else said they were going to!

From Cabin 022109
He kicked up a little mud trying to get out...which he did with some help from a couple of the guys.

From Cabin 022109
Another wonderful sight. A natural pond that you can actually see bubbling up from an underground spring!

From Cabin 022109
From Cabin 022109
It was also my brother-in-law's birthday so there was some celebrating going on!

From Cabin 022109
Then there were card games too!

From Cabin 022109
The next day we woke up to a few inches of freshly fallen snow! It was great riding around in that!

Even if it was COLDER than the day before!

So like I said...I had a good excuse to not be blogging! LOL!

Again, we had a wonderful relaxing time and I hope to do it again sometime.

Headline News

My World is dead...long live My World.

After 49 shows dating back to last March I will no longer be hosting my Internet radio show.

But that is because I am launching a brand new show!

Back in the day I worked in "real" radio with a good friend and we are going to reunite to bring you something a little different on blog talk radio!

Beginning Thursday March 5th at 10pm it will be "Jeff and Glenn @ 10!"

Thirty minutes of talk and all kinds of stuff.

There will still be the "People I Hate" segments, weird news and a lot of the things from My World, but there will also be more interviews, contests, and new features like "Dial a Date" and "Facebook Profile of the week"!

I want to thank the ones who listened and supported my little folly for the past year and I also want to encourage you to listen to the new show starting in March!

One of the very first contests we are running was announced last night:

The Limerick Show!

For the next month we want YOU dear reader to send us your favorite limericks. Actually we want you to read them for us! Send an audio file, post it to YouTube, brings us a copy personally...we don't care!

Over the next few days I will post links to YouTube and Daily Motion where you can post your videos and emails where you can send the audio files.

If you need some technical support just drop one of us a line and we'll do what we can.

The best ones will be compiled for the show on April 2nd (one day past April Fools Day) and played back!

So, as they say, stay tuned!

Birthday



Another one! LOL!

Today my one and only Godchild turns seven years old!

Alex is the first born of my only sister.

Really, when you think about it being a Godparent is quite the accomplishment.

It means that someone ELSE thinks you are going to be good enough to raise THEIR kid if anything ever happens to them! LOL!



When my grandmother passed away a few years ago I met my mother's Godfather at the funeral home. I told him that my mother (then in her 50's) was now his responsibility. I mean does your responsibility ever end? Am I going to be responsible for Alex when he's older?



That's a lot of pressure!


Still all of my nieces and nephews are a treasure to me. Each has their own unique personality and bring something different into my life as I am sure they do for their own parents.

Friends in Low Places

The last time the Steelers were in the Super Bowl I made a little video from all the games we had watched during the season.


So this year I did the same only I used pictures from all of our various gatherings over the year.


Set to the tune of "I Love This Bar" by Toby Keith.


Enjoy!

Super Bowl Shuffle

Six-burgh!

The six-pack!

One for the other thumb!

Call it what you want it was a finish for the ages and a game that no Steeler fan will forget!

First things first...the Cardinals played one heck of a game and if they had won it would have been fair and square. Their history may not be much (no championships since 1947) but they have some classy players and a good coaching staff.

Now on to celebrating!

First (again) the records:


Mike Tomiln becomes the youngest coach in a Super Bowl and the youngest coach to WIN a Super Bowl!


The Steelers (who were the first team to win four super bowls) become the only team to win SIX Super Bowls. For perspective here: The Steelers have one 6 of the 43 games played...13%. Fifteen teams in the league have NEVER won a Super Bowl.


James Harrison set a record with the longest play in the history of the Super Bowl. A rumbling 100 YARD INTERCEPTION RETURN FOR A TOUCHDOWN!!!!


Now the fun stuff:


What a game! For the last Super Bowl the Steelers were in I was so nervous I couldn't even drink!


This time I was more relaxed and with a 17-7 half time lead and the Cardinals looks unworthy it was a fun time!


Then things got out of hand...quickly.


My main thought as the Cardinals scored the go ahead touchdown? Man the Larry Fitzerald is fast!!!


So with just over two minutes left I was hanging head and ready to give up. Something I have never done during the playoffs.


I went to the bathroom and as I was looking the mirror I could not process the thought that the Steelers might lose! It couldn't happen!


I started asking for some sort of miracle.


I started talking to people I knew were on the other side to pull some strings!


Anything!


And they did it! The Steelers drove down the field and won the game!


Of course I though it might have cost me my soul...until I realized that there were probably a lot of other people doing the same thing!


I just hope there was someone else they wanted more than me!


So the celebration went long in to the night and we Steeler fans will bask in it for quite some time!


How long, you ask?


As a Steeler fan I can say that we will believe in our team until they eliminated next season...when and IF that happens!


Congratulations Steelers and thank you for ANOTHER great season!


Oh...and one more thing:

My son Josh, 6 years old, reading the classic Christmas poem "Twas The Night Before Christmas".

Merry Christmas everyone!

Family Tradition

Whew!

Last Christmas party of the year is over!

Now we still have to get together with family on Christmas Eve and then the other side of the family on Christmas Day...but no more parties!

I love getting together with everyone and the more the merrier...but I'm worn out!

We didn't have Christmas "parties" growing up. All the relatives would come to my Grandmother's house on Christmas Eve and then Christmas morning after all the gifts were opened we would ride from relative to relative visiting (in the back of a car with no seat belts by the way)!

Now we have one for work, one for the neighborhood, one for the extended family on one side...I love them but I'm glad its over.

Until New Year's Eve.

I wonder who decided that we need to ring in the next second in the continuous flow of time with a big party?!?!
