Mountaineers are always free! But not always free to leave the program right before a bowl game! Coach Rod has decided to leave to head to Michigan, a great program up where it is ass cold. Money talks as we all know, with a 500k increase in salary per year, how can you say no?

But I am still a bitter mountaineer fan, backing my team through it all. I just wish that coach would have stayed through the season instead of being such an ass clown and kicking us while we are down.

Here's to you Rich! Now your paycheck will be as large as your ego but not near as big as the pride of the WV faithful!

The people who bought our house in Seattle are Bloggin!

Drew sent me some snail mail today that had his blog link in it. They are currently working on the kitchen right now. Complete GUT!





that is how it was when we bought it. The only thing that we did was to put in the appliances. Drew has taken the next step.

By the numbers

Organic Sheets from Target- 250 thread count - $40
Lindt 70% and 85% chocolate bars- 2 for $4.00
Superbad DVD - rented for $1.00
Dog Fish Head - Old School Barley Wine 2007- $13

In first place- you got it! The beer. A nice 15% or so Barley WIne with nice sweetness to it without the over powering dark thickness. I am going to stash 2 of the 4 away in the basement and pull them out next Christmas ( that is what the directions on the bottle tell you to do btw)

2nd - The sheets. For $40 we might be on to something. They are a little hard right now but after a few washings I have high hopes for these.

3rd- 70% cocoa bar. Nice flavor, not too sweet but sweet enough to count as candy. I don't know why I bought the 85% I don't like that stuff. Must have been the 2 for $4.00 tag!

Finally - Superbad coming in 9th place. 9th place you ask? Yeah 9th. I had to put the 5 times I stabbed myself with a spoon last night before superbad. Honestly- Just say the F word 100 times in a row, think about the geeks in your highschool that were true geeks, and pour bleach into your eyes and nose and you will have the same feeling as if you just watched superbad.

Today (Sunday) it is warm and sunny here in NC. I climbed up the Magnolia as high as I could to get some of our nice red LED lights up. I guess tonight we will see how they look.

Nothing beats a Grady

Things around here have been rather slow for the DIY. Sure we have plenty of things to do, and no it isn't summer paddling season. We really have no excuse other than we keep finding things to do. Things like---Fishing!

It was a great weekend to get out again with Brian on the Grady. Sure it's december and it was cold as a witches #^& but we had the desire to catch some fish. The water was a bit rough, while they called for 2-4 it was more like 4-6 with the occasional 8 footer just for giggles.

We were able to catch a good mess of black bass (good fried up southern style!) and I was fortunate enough to land a 22lb grouper and a 16in black bass at the same time!

But now it's tuesday, the tree is half decorated, and the leaves from the worlds largest oak tree are 1/2 fallen. It won't be a 'chill' weekend at all. Shopping, painting, and maybe some plumbing if I am lucky.
