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.

Too Little, Too Late

A bit late, but here is you Saturday monring fix...in the early evening!

Never Been Any Reason

Good music to kick off the show withe Head East!



The show focused exclusively on the Pittsburgh Steelers winning their SIXTH Super Bowl this past week so I'm not going to bore you with lots of links.



NEXT WEEK:



- The return of the "People I Hate" segment! I promise this time! I just couldn't build up any hate after that big win Sunday! LOL!



- My take on the stimulus bill whether it has been passed or not and why people on both sides of the aisle are acting like idiots.



- A very special announcement on how YOU the listener can help me with a special show coming up soon!



Check me out all over the web!




Talk with you next week!

Does Anybody Really Know What time It Is?

So my homepage has one of those convenient reminders on the left side where you can put doctor appointments and the like.

It even reminds me of my favorite sport team schedules and holidays.

Sometimes though I wonder if I should trust it:

If can't see that double click and it will open up for you, but since when is Ash Wednesday on a Friday?

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:
