In the near future...

Discovery SpaceHow many of you here are Star Trek fans?
How many of you know the series really well? Well if you're still reading this you either a true fan or someone wanting to waste time and continue reading. Either way I came across an article this morning referencing the possibility of traveling in warp speed - that's right I said warp. With the way our technology jumps ahead each new year I can easily say that warp travel is n the near future. The possibiliets would be endless especially when it comes to space exploration. Could there be Star Fleet organization be forming right now behind closed doors? Who knows maybe there is or maybe the only step that has been takien in that direction is simply the theory of such an accomplishment. Given the way this world started and where we are today this future feels more possible then anything else.

One more trip...

With the summer months just around the corner I can't wait to inform my kids that we are going to Disney World in Florida. Yes I know my kids aren't really kids anymore but to me they will always be little and adorable. On our last trip to the great world of fun we encountered a local business owner that had some discount Disney tickets available if we would simply try out one of his company's time share seminars. Well after we got a complete two hour explanation on how time share works we were given four passes to the grand land of them all - Walt Disney World. The kids had their excitement meter tilting past awesome, with the repeated mention of the many rides that they will be going on. I have to admit that even my wife and I had a bit of our childhood come out knowing that we would be seeing a lot of the famous characters at the park. If you were to ask the kids what ride was their favorite you will get about an hours worth of talk and not on ride missed but if you were to ask me I would have to say that the Hall of Presidents and the Haunted Mansion were my favorites. There's nothing cooler then seeing our earlier presidents presented in such a manner. I truly enjoyed every moment of that day. The kids would love to go back but I'm going to wait just a little bit longer before saying anything. I got the inside word that Orlandofuntickets.com can get me a great deal on family packages that won't include any seminars or any hidden surprises. If you're reading this and are looking to visit the Grand Park please go to orlandofuntickets.com and get yourself a great deal for yourself or for the family.
Have Fun!

Vikings might get a Favre...

With today's opening lines displaying that Brett Farve might return to the spotlight of the NFL with quite possibly the Minnesota Vikings simply brought one thing to mind - Brett, would you please pick a team and stick to it. You are a great athlete no questions asked but this hopscotch endeavour that you have started doesn't look good for you and whatever image you have left. If in fact you do fill that spot with the Vikings then congrats but if you are already planning on jumping to the next square before your first foot settles in then please stay retired. The last thing the fans in Minnesota want is someone that came and went without trying it out a bit longer. Stay healthy bro and please follow through with what ever decision you present.

Just for you...

Okay - the following post will be totally dedicated to my cousin in Florida that couldn't leave me alone this past weekend. I spent at least three hours with her on the phone trying to explain to her that she needed to do an in depth search on what doctor she will need when going for that "special" surgery. I told her that she might have to do some traveling if she is too find skilled surgeons that can perform what she needs. I found out that San Diego Plastic Surgeons can do the job for a reasonable price so I shuffled that info over to her. I even told her that she can stay with my step-daughter in California while she was there for her surgery. Please, if your reading this and you're looking into some plastic surgery do yourself a huge favor and find the right doctor that can do just that and not charge you an arm and a leg (figuratively speaking that is).

Laimbeer seeking job in the NBA...

I found this to be a bit of a shocker (no pun intended) when I heard that Bill Laimbeer resigned as head coach of the Detroit Shocks. Bill has gained three titles in a period of six seasons so to hear him talking about entering the NBA sector was surprising especially given the fact that the last time he tried this it didn't work out so good between himself and Isiah Thomas of the Knicks. I hope he finds a good nest to chill in - it would even be nice to see him sign up with the Baby Bulls and see what chemistry he can add to those you guys.

The gear that works...

This month is definitely the month - especially if you are into paintballing. I haven't paintballed in about a year or so, I am looking into getting back into shape and signing up to the local club and begin my retraining in having some good ole fashion fun. Now in order to do this I would have to supply myself with the right gear that both protects me as well as gives me that sweet look of coolness. BDU pants would be a great start especially if you get yourself some black ones like I am. The one feature that I believe is the one that stands out the most is the reinforced seat and knee patches. These two sections are the ones to go first especially if you are a true baller. Check these out today and don't wait too long you might be a bit late if you wait.

Not a done deal yet...

This past weekend was a bit of a stir in the world of sports especially when it comes to basketball. With the Lakers taking in a fourth title the NBA world had rumors that Shaq might be heading out to Ohio to join King James' court. That would be a great thought especially if these two powerhouses get together and get the job done. If the Cavaliers were able to get as far as they did this past season with their current squad you know that next year will be an awesome one to watch. Well that dream might have to be placed on the top shelf of the locker room because from what I read in this [article] it looks like there might be some hurdles to go over first before Shaq can even think about jumping to the midwest. Let me know what you think.

Anything is possible...

With the remodeling of our new home underway we could use some rustic furniture to with the 1902 home. The image you see to the left is that of an Eastern Red Cedar Sofa Table, as you can see it truly does look rustic and would definitely bring out the charm of any home. I can easily see myself checking out the rest of their product line and finding the perfect sofa and couch match to with the table. I'm going to let you go now so that I can do just that - so if you are done visiting here please follow me to ScenicFurniture.com and see what might end up in your home.

Congrats to Phil...

You read the title just right. I want to send a big CONGRATS to Phil Jackson for accomplishing one of the most wanted achievements in the world of basketball. What's that you ask? - Well, before Phil received his fourth Lakers Championship Trophy he had himself about six others from the great city of Chicago where the Bulls rule of course and the fact that they're my favorite team. My hat goes off to his crew that made who the Lakers are today. I knew that as soon as Kobe got his fourth title people would start to compare him to other players that have four titles as well. The following article is of course what I predicted [Article Link] brought to you by CBSsports.com. Now the good man Jackson can walk around with each of his fingers and two thumbs extended out to show all his great achievement. Once again congrats to you and the Laker franchise.

I'm really trying, seriously...

The past few months have been brutal for me because I see my wife making some remarkable dinners and all I can assist with is "Can I open the can of corn?". I have been looking throughout the web searching for that one site that can bring me up to a respectable standard, especially in the kitchen area. Okay I have to confess, this site was recommended by a friend of mine but I will not reveal her name even if you think it's my sister. Cooks.com is the place to go to try out new recipes and to share ones of your own as well. Give them a try and you just might be as cool as my wife or maybe a little average like myself.
