Fly 'til I die...

I watched yet another risque episode of Nip/Tuck last night and I could not believe what they are allowing on cable TV. Did anyone else see this last night? Patient/doctor gay sex and a woman so ugly but so desperate for sex that her plastic surgeon would only have sex with her if she had a paper grocery sack over her head. This episode was over the top for me. I felt a little dirtier for having watched it, but I feel like I can't stop watching it until they reveal who "The Carver" is...my money's on it being Dr. Quentin Costa, the bisexual and former assistant surgeon to McNamara/Troy. He's got Kimber now, fooling Christian into thinking she left him at the altar. Next week's episode looks tamer, but who knows what they'll throw in...

I posted a new link on the sidebar for some interesting reading about the rapture for all believers and unbelievers out there. It caught my eye because our generation will see the end...believer or not, if that doesn't put a knot in your throat, then I don't know what will! So scary but exciting! Humans naturally fear things we don't understand.

I should be working, but it's almost lunch time and I can't get motivated again until after lunch. Cozy Corner today, baby! Anyway, the link may serve a huge purpose in case people start disappearing one day and it turns catastrophically chaotic...might wanna refer to my link for guidance. :) Of course, Googling "Rapture" may help, too. Enjoy! Can't wait for the comments I'll get on this one!

After a nice, long Thanksgiving break, it's back to reality tomorrow. Thanksgiving was pretty uneventful with much food consumed and a few naps in between. My grandmother had a touch of pneumonia while we were there but seemed ok as long as the hydrocodone and antibiotics were working. Yesterday, she was put in ICU for complications. Keep her in your prayers for all you praying people out there...thanks!

UT decided they would actually win a football game this weekend, defeating KY 27-8. No bowl bid this year, but with David Cutcliffe returning as offensive coordinator, hopefully Erik Ainge can learn how to run an offense next year. Who knows, we might even see a "www.firephil.com" site go up after this year's piss-poor performance! Next week, LSU will play Georgia for the SEC championship title...should be a goody!

Congratulations to the University of Memphis on a fine basketball performance this week in the NIT tournament at Madison Square Garden in NYC. They nearly defeated #1 Duke on Friday. The Tigers led most of the game, narrowly losing by 3 points. This year's team looks very promising.

Through a little persuasion, a mindful of stuff to type, and being able to write as a creative outlet again, I have decided to open up a blog site for all to see. I don't have the kind of time my buddy, Jason, has to do this kinda thing, but with the upcoming holidays, I should have a little free time to spout about. It's the day before Thanksgiving and fortunately my work day is kinda slow. My friend and fellow O.C. watcher, Brent, called this morning to discuss our plans for our church's Christmas philanthropy to the Memphis neighborhood of Binghampton. Our church's community groups adopt a family to give them a nice Christmas where they would normally have nothing. This will be my first time to be a leader in this effort. Last year, one of the guys took our money and bought everything. This year, we want to all do it together and light up their faces! It truly is better to give than to receive!

I'm heading to my grandparents this weekend for Thanksgiving and a little hunting with my dad. I will enjoy being away from work for a while. I know I have a chaotic week ahead of me when I go back on Monday so I'll try to make the most of it. Happy Thanksgiving...I'm out!
