31 Flavors on your birthday... just one scoop.
With great age, comes great responsibilities-- I'm not sure if I got that quote right, but I do know I'm getting old. One of the few perks of getting another year older is getting free stuff. I'm not signed up for all the free stuff and I honestly don't remember signing up for the Baskin Robbins Birthday Club. Probably something my girlfriend did for me. But tonight my daughter and I got to take advantage of one free cone.Of the 31 Flavors, Lily chose Strawberry. Which makes me smile. When I was a youngster, my ice cream preference started and ended with strawberry. Sure vanilla and chocolate are okay, but as Lily pointed out, "Strawberry comes with actual strawberries!" I opted for cookie dough. Its actually kind of a sick obsession I have with cookie dough. But its the little things in life that make life sweeter, so thanks to my girlfriend who I'm pretty sure signed me up and thanks to Baskin Robbins for my sweet treat.
Comcast purchases NBC.
So I have to wonder what Comcast's purchase of NBC is going to do to my favorite programs. As pointed out elsewhere, Comcast previously owned: G4, Versus, the Golf Channel, E Entertainment, the Style Network, and FEARnet, as well as a lot of regional sports channels. With the purchase of NBC Network, that list of channels will no include: USA, SyFy, Bravo, CNBC, MSNBC, the NBC network and Universal Studios.
Now with Comcast owning the Monday Night Football rights that air on NBC and the broadcasting the rights for the UFL on Versus, could this be the death of the UFL? We know NBC has been burned in the past with the smaller football ventures. Or does UFL become either an exclusive property for either Versus or HDNet?
I guess we'll hurry up and wait.
Did you blink-- Then you probably missed it.
According to Wikipedia:The United Football League (UFL) is an independent professional American football league that began play in October 2009. The league's premiere season consisted of four teams and is being played in October and November 2009, culminating in the championship game on November 27 in Sam Boyd Stadium in Las Vegas, Nevada, site of the league's first game on October 8. The league has confirmed a second season, and additional franchises are possible for 2010. The league's defending champions are the Las Vegas Locomotives, who defeated the Florida Tuskers, 20-17, in overtime in the November 27 title game.
Well what it do Nephew!?!
My sister gave birth to this little bundle of joy, Ezekiel. 7lbs. 2oz. 20 inches tall. Zeke doesn't have a posse yet, but this little guy is pretty awesome. I'm proud of my sister for bringing this little guy into the world. My brother-in-law and sister are going to make terrific parents. They were hoping for a Friday the 13th birthday for Zeke, but unfortunately they had to settle for a Saturday the 14th. He is has only been in our lives a short-short time, but he's already wedged himself as the new baby boy of the family. And I couldn't be a happier Uncle. I can't wait until to hear him talk or take his first steps. Zeke is a part of a huge family, 8 cousins on Mom's side, 4 cousins on Dad's side.Tropicana help saves the Rainforest

I really wish I had heard about this sooner. I have been purchasing 4 packs of Tropicana at Costco every other week for the better part of 2 years. I don't know how long this promotion has been going on, but I would have gladly entered my codes. Regardless, I'd recommend any orange juice drinker to switch to Tropicana and input those codes. With some much mystery in the Rain Forests, the world should attempt to preserve as much of whats left.
