Reminder for Future Self -

Start bringing a flask of whiskey for these long nights reading literature in this warm little library cubby.

 
Who is the resident blogger here? A friend had some blog questions.
I have one and so does TRE. But I think Zooks should probably start one.
What site do you use?Which would you recommend for shorter, mini-blogs with more than one author?Which has the easiest ease of interface for live-blogging?
I use blogger. I don't know. I don't know.
Blogger is great for all of this imo. My blog is a two author deal until we finally end up joining forces with Frosty.
Offer is on the table to cover football.
Did you see my dominant national signing day blog?
Someone other than you guys follows Gopher football? That's adorable.

I don't. That's why I need a football guy. And a hockey one. And really anything other than Gopher Basketball or the Twins.

SUCK IT
 
so more detail:

I'm leaving for mexico with the two 20-somethings on sunday for 5 days. the other day I bought a new truck. not just any truck--leather seats, enough electronics to launch the space shuttle--basically a giant luxury car with a truck bed. my paralegal loves it. she's going to drive me and the 20-somethings to the airport at 5 in the morning and come pick us up at midnight in exchange for driving this thing for 5 days.

this will end so well.

 
more: 20-somethings are on the way to my house to watch movies and drink wine. paralegal is at home with her for-now husband, texting me.

no way I'm going to screw this up.

 
Greetings from my HOA meeting. :bye:
Sucks to be you. After six years on the HOA board, including four as President, I'm retired from that ####. My advice is to run as far away as quickly as possible.
my primary practice is representing HOAs. Dont ever, ever, serve on a board. I wouldn't even go to a meeting.
I remember discussing that. I agreed to serve on our board because the developer ran out and left us with a budget that was 40% more than our income. We begged, pleaded, stole, borrowed and bounced checks to keep the lights on. By the time we got to last year, most of our time was spent dealing with neighbors whose pets were ####ting/pissing on each others' lawns. At that point, I decided it was time to retire.
 
Hey Frosty> Bennett just called me. The voice mail gave some interesting insight into the Frostillicus' household.
What!? Oh crap. What'd we say?
Update?
Bennett breathed heavily into the phone a lot (I'm guessing it was him, sounded more like a toddler breathing than an adult). I think I heard you mention something about bubbles. Other than that, it was your wife and daughter.Your wife sounds very Minnesotan.

:ph34r: And that was my mom. She was over tonight and I know it was her because of the "sounds very Minnesotan" crack. My wife doesn't thank god (neitehr do I, for the record).

Redmond Longhorn got into it pretty good with his HOA. Serious serious bidness.

Explain this HOA thing?
Imagine that, in your house, there were a lot of stupid rules. Now imagine there was an ornery retired people whose job it was to enforce the rules and make new rules. Now imagine him being a self-important jerk who thinks he is the king of the world. Multiply by about 20. Then you've got a HOA.

Homeowners Association. It's like a microgovernent in many neighborhoods. It's really too boring of a topic to include here. My time largely involved getting ####faced drunk with my neighbor while conducting "official neighborhood business." We did manage to see guns pulled in our general direction twice. Once while cruising past a park just outside our neighborhood that was known for drug transactions and once when the county sheriffs were cracking down on dealers in said park.

And, of course, you'd have to imagine that you moved into said neighborhood with a full understanding of the contractual obligations placed on your property as a condition of purchase and generally #####ed about any rule you didn't want to follow while simultaneously complaining about any rules that you thought your neighbors should follow.

sweet. So there's a (very) small chance I will be in the netherlands for work around that time. I typically have to go there once a year, and I'm trying to push it around the PJ tour. I doubt it will happen, but nevertheless, I'm shooting for it.
