beneath my dignity to climb a tree

The problem. Err. One of the pitfalls of growing up is that it can make you world-weary. You see things. You learn things. And you start to think that you know it all. Not because you do but because, well you've seen a lot. You've got the gist of the way things work, and, how much more could there possibly be?

The RM likes to joke that someday Hugh Jackman will become a widower or divorcee. And then he will meet me and we will marry. Sounds great. But here's the thing, besides the utter unlikelihood of Mr. Jackman becoming single, I am a total dork around anyone remotely famous. Tongue tied and pathetic.

Closer to the realm of reality, I stumbled upon this wikipedia category:People from Brooklyn. That's right it's a list of wiki-worthy Brooklynites.

Which got me another inch closer to the realm of reality and thinking about some of the Brooklynites whom I admire, like Zefrank, OddTodd, Jonathon Coulton, and Joe Piglet of the Stockyard Stoics. Sometimes I fall into a daydream that one of these days I might run into one of them when I stop at a donut shop for a krueller on my way back from a long day at the laundromat.

In younger days, this reverie would end with in some steamy torrid love scene or a creative collaboration that brings us both fame, wealth, glory and the legendary cultural political influence that could change the world for the better. *yep*

However, now. These daydream scenarios are always interrupted by the rattle of the rocks in my head.

In reality, I would probably gape and stare a little and then slink off with my donuts. Because while I love their work, what do I really know about these people? The fact that I like their work does not mean that we have anything to talk about or that we share common interests or any of the usual things that help you make friends. It doesn't even mean that they are nice people. What would be the spark, the hook that would lead to more than an awkward hello?

Let's say I did make an attempt to interact -

Me (through a mouth full of Krueller): "Hi, I really like your work."
Famous Dude: "Gee thanks, so do I."
Me: *smiling like I have rigor mortis*
Famous Dude: "Soooooo ... do you want something or are you just going to blush and sweat and smile at me with donut all over your face?"
Me: "Uh, that one time, when you, like, played that song? And you were all dancing at stuff? Oh, Man! That was the best."
Famous Dude slowly backing away: "Yeah. Right. Uh, look it was nice running into you. Glad you like my work. Maybe I'll see you around."

And *zoop* he is gone.

Especially since my limited social skills have greatly atrophied. The best I could hope for is to remember the manners my mother tried to teach me and offer Famous Dude a donut.

Brought to you by the letter "N"

Ten things that I like that start with the letter "N"

1. New York - It's the walking down the street that I really like. Best thing for a bad mood is to step outside on a crisp day and walk somewhere.

2. Nectarines - slightly underripe, chilled in the fridge on a hot summer day. Sun speckled, crisp, and delicious.

3. Nissan Sentra - My favorite car is the 1999 Red Nissan that I inherited from my father. It had this feature where the driver's side door would fly open while one drove down the road. For a while it would stay shut when I locked it. The day it stopped doing that my father urged me to retire it. Only to start driving it himself again, the sneak!

4. Noodles - I like carbs of all kind. I have yet to meet a carb I don't like. But noodles in particular are divine.

5. Nocturnal - I am. I am up way too late all the time wishing that I knew if anyone else out there was still awake and wanted to discuss theories of the universe, life epiphanies, or neuroses at 3am over milkshakes and potato skins.

6. Nap - after a night like that a nap is clearly the best thing.

8. Nanowrimo - A special activity for the month of November. The one that makes November the second coolest month of the year. On my honor I will try: to complete Nanowrimo, eat more fiber, and live by the girl scout laws.

9. What's a goat raised to the negative nine? A Nano-goat.

10. nerdcore - I am a nerd. I have never liked the word nerd. But this practice of putting -core as a suffix to indicate excessiveness to the max, I can approve of that. Makes being a nerd seem that much closer to being a geek. Unlike the nerd, the geek is not to be pitied. The carnival geek bites the heads off of live chickens. The geek elicits a response of horror, revulsion, and fascination. It is a confrontational form of freakiness having to do with what you do as much as who you are.

Apparently, it is also a subgenre of hiphop. One of its practitioners is MC Frontalot. Is this guy for real?

In case you were wondering numbers 11-20 are:

the norm from which we deviate
navy blue
ne'er do well
navel gazing
nilla wafer
not half bad

molly: thanx. My friend CK has found someone to hook her up with nectarines out of season. I admit to being a little jealous.

BBFK: I did not know that! hee!
I think you've seen all the cars I drove in CU.

Remember when we tried to drive JE to the airport in the Jetta?

The race was a massive challenge, but I survived and did well. Praise be to God (who gave me the strength to persevere)!

Over the past two days I ran in a 5K, a 10K, a half-marathon, a 2.8 mile beach run, and a one mile "fun run." These races add up to 26.2 miles - exactly marathon distance. I love the format of the Critz-Tybee Run Fest, which takes place on Tybee Island (Savannah's beach).

The photo to the left is of my wife Alice and me. She, along with a couple of our kids, accompanied me to Tybee for last night's 5K. I figured that I would finish the race in about 22 minutes. As I approached the finish line I was shocked to see the clock say 19:26. That's the fastest 5K I've run in almost fifteen years.

While I'm thrilled about my 5K performance, I must admit that I "robbed Peter to pay Paul." The exertion from last night made today somewhat of a struggle (that combined with a wicked wind that never let up at Tybee). Despite these factors, I was able to complete all four races today. I finished the 10K in 47:19, the half-marathon in 1:48:18, the 2.8 mile beach run in 24:19, and the one mile run in 7:32. Those times were about what I expected when considering gradual fatigue and wind conditions.

I realize that physical fitness in general and racing in particular are not exceedingly important in the big scheme of things. However, God has given us bodies for which we are to be stewards. Racing motivates me to run, which in turn keeps me in good shape. That's ultimately why I do it. I hope you take part in some sort of physical exercise. You won't regret it!

The three photos below are the beginning of the 10K (I'm number 531 in the bright yellow hat), the middle of the 10K where I'm dying, and the finish of the 10K where the blessed end is in sight.

Hopefully we'll have a house soon. We found out on Friday that we should be able to close on the house next week. I'll believe it when it actually happens.

On another note. I took some pictures of the race car this weekend. Here's a couple. Click on the picture to make it bigger.

Loved the pictures of the race car but Bob looks a little pastey. Did he embalm himself?

home improvement loans world

Refinancing is when you apply for a secured loan in order to pay off another different loan secured against the same assets, property etc. If this original loan had a fixed interest rate mortgage which has now declined considerably, then you would like to avail of a new loan at a more favorable interest rate.
When is Refinancing an Option
Typically home refinancing is done when you have a mortgage on your home and apply for a second loan to pay off the first one. While taking the decision to go for the home refinancing option, it is important to first determine whether the amount you save on interests balances the amount of fees payable during refinancing.
Benefits of Home Refinancing
Imagine a scenario where you can have access to extra cash, while simultaneously lowering your monthly mortgage payment. This dream can become a reality through mortgage refinancing.
A house is the largest asset you may ever own. Likewise, your mortgage payment may be the largest expense you'll have in your monthly budget. Wouldn't it be great to use this asset to reduce your monthly payment and put extra cash in your pocket? When you refinance your mortgage, you can take advantage of the equity in your home and enable this to take place.
Lower Refinance Rate, Lower Payments
When you purchased your dream home, the financial environment dictated interest rates. While certain factors, like your credit rating and the amount of the down payment that you were able to afford, influenced your interest rate, the single most important factor was the prevailing rates at that moment. However, interest rates fluctuate. When the Federal Reserve enters a rate-cutting period, the prevailing rates may become significantly lower than when you originally purchased your home.
By refinancing your mortgage when interest rates are lower, you can exchange a higher interest rate for a lower one, which, in turn, will lower your monthly payment.
Shorten the Length of Your Mortgage when Refinancing
Another advantage of home refinancing is that you can shorten the term of your mortgage. Let's say, for example, that you originally had a 30-year mortgage and have been paying it for eight years. Thanks to mortgage refinancing, you can switch to a shorter term of either 10, 15 or 20 years. This can save you thousands of dollars of interest. Also, if the refinance rate is lower, but you maintain the same monthly payment, you will build up equity in your home more quickly, because more of your payment will be going towards principal.
Exchange an Adjustable Rate for a Fixed Refinance Rate
When interest rates are low, adjustable rate mortgages (ARMs) are the housing market's darlings. However, as interest rates increase, that adjustable rate may not look as sweet. It's also possible that you opted for an ARM because your financial future was less secure, or you weren't sure how long you'd stay in your home. If, however, you've become financially stable and know that you'll be staying in your home for several years, it may be beneficial to swap that fluctuating adjustable rate for a fixed one. You'll have more security knowing that your monthly payment will remain steady, regardless of the current market environment.
Access to Extra Cash - Cash-out refinancing
One way to put more money in your pocket is to tap into the equity you've built in your home and do a "cash-out" refinancing. In this scenario, you can refinance for an amount higher than your current principal balance and take the extra funds as cash. This can provide money for remodeling your home, paying off high-interest rate bills, or sending your kids to college.
Bye, Bye PMI
If you were unable to make a down payment of 20 percent when you purchased your home, you may have been required to purchase Private Mortgage Insurance (PMI). If your house has appreciated since then, and you've steadily paid down your mortgage, your equity may now be more than 20 percent. If you refinance, you will no longer need PMI.
In many ways, your house is like a cash cow. If you have discipline and knowledge of the benefits of refinancing, you can tap into its milk for years to come.

How to Pass Aptitude Tests

Potential employers, educators and other organizations provide aptitude tests for potential candidates. These tests gauge the intelligence and skills of the taker during a specific amount of time. Most aptitude tests are not completed in the allotted amount of time, but participants are expected to complete as much of them as possible. The tests are on general or employment-related topics and include multiple-choice answers. Participants take these tests on a computer most of the time, but some take it on paper using a pencil.

Discover what will be included on the aptitude test you will be taking. You can do so by simply asking the administrator what is on the aptitude test. Do research to determine sample questions for the type of industry you are taking the test for. You can also find sample aptitude tests that you can take to determine your strong and weak points. Do this daily until it is time to take the aptitude test.

Study sentence structure and basic English writing formatting for paragraphs, essays and speaking. Pay attention to how each sentence flows and the correct way of speaking without using slang or uncommon words. Verbal ability questions determine the participant’s grammar, understanding of analogies and ability to follow instructions. These tests help employers determine how proficient you are in communication. Data checking tests require participants to search for errors specifically for clerical-type jobs, and this study method is common for this section.

Practice basic and advanced math that includes charts for the numeric ability tests. These tests are generally basic, but they may include some advanced math and charts. Brush up on things you learned in high school and take time to learn new things that may have been confusing to you in the past.

Read instruction manuals for basic appliances around your home and search online for manuals for products you do not own. Following recipe instructions can also be beneficial to studying for this test. Abstract reasoning portions of the test have questions to determine your logic and solutions to questions. These questions determine your intelligence and ability to learn new things.

Reassess your personal knowledge concerning physics for the mechanical reasoning test. These tests assess your mechanical knowledge concerning topics including inertia, force, energy and friction. Study books about the movement of the human body and books about how magnets work. Utilize the time until your test to study and understand physics terms and how they apply to everyday life.

Study electronic diagrams concerning your chosen field of work if you plan to become an electrician or enter a mechanical field. Fault diagnosis questions determine how participants find issues and fix problems concerning electronics or mechanics.

Research the field you plan to enter and the company you wish to work for. Break the job title down and determine your expected duties. Work sample tests include scenarios of work situations and conflicts and how well the user can handle it. Knowing and understanding your potential job responsibilities will prepare you for this portion of the test.

  • Kevin James

More Info

Kevin James: James broke into the film world in 2005 in Columbia Pictures’ Hitch starring opposite Will Smith, but his comedy career started well before that as a stand-up on the Long Island comedy scene. After being discovered at the 1996 Montreal Comedy Festival, he signed a network development deal to create his own sitcom. The King of Queens, which premiered in 1998, ran for nine seasons on CBS with James starring and executive producing, and it garnered him an Emmy nomination in 2006 for Outstanding Lead Actor in a Comedy Series. The show concluded its run in 2007 but continues to air daily in syndication across the country and around the world. In 2001, James brought his stand-up act to TV with Sweat the Small Stuff, a one-hour special for Comedy Central. In 2005 Kevin James and Ray Romano executive produced and starred in the HBO Sports Special Making the Cut: The Road to Pebble Beach; a documentary about the Pebble Beach Pro Am Golf Tournament that was nominated for a Sports Emmy.

In 2009, Kevin James starred in, produced, and co-wrote the box office hit Paul Blart: Mall Cop. Two years later, audiences saw James headlining the MGM feature Zookeeper which he also co-wrote and produced, and starring in Columbia Pictures’ Grown Ups along with Adam Sandler, Chris Rock, David Spade, and Rob Schneider; previously James and Sandler worked together on I Now Pronounce You Chuck and Larry (2007).

in 2012, James wrote, produced, and starred in Here Comes the Boom a passion project that tackled his love of UFC fighting and training, and featured his friend and ex-MMA fighter Bas Rutten. That same year, James re-teamed with Sandler and Spade in the animated Hotel Transylvania, shortly before the release of Grown Ups 2. While fans of his stand-up wait for any hint of his return to the stage, Kevin James can look forward to sequels to both Paul Blart: Mall Cop and Hotel Transylvania as well as an appearance with Sandler in the upcoming video game movie, Pixels.

temple square

With the help of my Mom, we went to temple square to see the Christmas lights. She encouraged us to go and she would watch Gracie so we didn't have to take her out in the cold. My Mom had this great plan for us to go up early, see the lights and go out to eat after. When she has these ideas she should have called temple square to tell them. We showed up at dark which is 5:30pm but the lights don't come on until 6pm. We had to wait out in the cold and in the dark. I made us stand by the red pine (my favorite) to see them all come on. You can't tell but Nick and Brittany came with us. I'm glad she came she had never been inside temple square to see the lights or the nativity. We ran through it really fast because Paul wasn't too thrilled about being there in the first place. After we all went for a burger and cheese fries. it was fun...

Let’s Recall How Conway, South Carolina Eventually Became Loaded With College Students

Did you know that the Cotton Belt has an top-tier past for history buffs? Walking around this Shangri-la for chow, you can imagine the auras of antique generations. There are seemingly plenty of picture-perfect stories to be told.

The original citizens came to South Carolina to finally find some delight for themselves and their families. It was always a onerous move but at least land was often cheaper than Savannah. Because of the state of affairs back then, the stale meals were hardly ever exciting. South Carolinians had to live on seasonal vegetation and domesticated animals that were budget-friendly to maintain from the farmlands around Lexington, Richland and Cherokee counties. Much of the broilers or oats was destined for ugly bowls of cuisine to feed the booming towns. Perhaps you could understand why Burger King felt wallet-busting at one time.

In the new period, grub in Conway, South Carolina is surprisingly baller even if there are antique undertones. The demographic mix of Conway, South Carolina is also changing rapidly. Fortuitously, that has meant more Cuban and American options than one could ever imagine 50 years ago.

Be appreciative about the significant number of world-class culinary institutions all over South Carolina. Especially, keep in mind all the advantages of this place. Sandlappers have become obsessed with the sheer volume of new American and German eateries all around the town.

South Carolina should be known for its pubs and saloons and not its association with Jeremiah Langhorne. There can be an overwhelming yet true sense of belonging here for anyone who claims to be a gourmand. And that is most evident at the favorite cafeterias.

Wherever our readers may reside these days, they can experience the yummy vegan and French fare of Conway, South Carolina by gawking at these representative images. Savor the cheeseburgers, biscuits and gravy or kale salads of South Carolina with each and every nosh.

Shopping in Miami

I am exhausted! My sister Laura is in town. She can enter a shopping competition and win hands down!......that sort of rhymes...... mmmmmmm!!! but it is an absolute truth and she is very good at it. Never one to pay full price if she can avoid it, she will go the distance looking for what she wants and always finds it. Not only that, but she'll get the best quality and the best price.

Early yesterday, well early for me!, I picked her up at our sister Ana's place and off we went. Of course, Florida weather had to play tricks on us rained! What is with this weather pattern this year? Laura was very organized and had everything written down. A girl after my own heart, I still do longhand lists for everything. Give me the chance to cross out what I did...and the opportunity to feel I have accomplished something because I see it in black and white! Here I go again, digressing....

We drove towards the NW and did some shopping at a vintage store. The things people give away! absolutely, someone's trash is someone else's treasure... It was already getting to be time for lunch, but there was no time to stop now, or in that neighborhood! So we drove down 27th Ave and on to Old Cuttler Road, one of the most beautiful roads in South Florida; pass Coconut Grove, into the Gables and finally out near The Falls Shopping Mall. True to her form, she wanted to continue, but I was starving. I treated her to a light lunch, of course it was already raining and the wind was blowing. Maybe not a bad day to be inside a store, I thought.

With lunch out of the way, we crossed the parking lot to the car.....getting wet in the process never mind the umbrella. On to TJMax.....another place where you can find everything like in a department store. We browse and talked, laughed and tried clothes on and waited for the sun to shine again. Did you know that you can find things from all over the world at this store? It's fabulous, especially for me that try very hard NOT to buy anything Made in China. My sister got linen blouses made in India and The Philippines, coffee mugs from England, four wooden spoons and a mortar from Italy, sandals made in Spain, silver bracelets from Thailand and cotton bedding made in the USA (didn't know that was still happening!)

Out into the sunny afternoon, we headed for.......more shopping! Laura is an exercise fanatic since she was a child. She used to walk around the table and the house several times after each meal. My mother thought her crazy! but time has proven my sister right, you need to exercise your calories away. Exercise clothes were next on the list and after that we did kitchen stuff. The sun hung in there and we finally started our way back home, again through Old Cuttler Road. The traffic going out of the city was unbelievable, I couldn't do this commuter thing in Miami.....or anywhere else for that matter!

The rain started again and we were still not finished. There were things to get at the drugstore, so that was our next stop. Fortunately we didn't stay too long, I was getting a tired and wanted to get home. I drove to my sister's home and helped her getting all the packages out and we said goodbye......not so soon.. I tried to start the car...and it didn't!!! The battery was dead and I had to call a special service we have, then wait for someone to come and start the car..... I was so mad! What a way to end the day! I can tell you, shopping is not my thing. One day like this and I have enough of shopping for a long while.....or until my sister comes back to visit. She always is so much fun, I can go out shopping again!!

Trumpeter Swans: Montana’s Phoenix

A few weeks ago I stopped by a pond near the Jefferson River and took some pictures of trumpeter swans. It was an incredible experience, watching those massive birds lift from the water, beating the air with magnificent wings. When I got into the office the next Monday, I started researching trumpeter swans. For me, the most difficult part of any blog post is the pictures, and, having the pictures, I figured I ought to write a post. I soon discovered that the pictures are not nearly as good as I thought, which happens every time a camera finds its way into my hands. I also discovered that while I had accumulated an encyclopedia entry’s worth of information, I had no narrative to use to frame a blog post, also a far too frequent occurrence.

Trumpeter Swan, wings spread, standing tall.

A desperate email to Tempest’s videographer fixed one of those problems. Mike was in Wyoming, taking some truly spectacular video of Teton National Park, and had some great stills of trumpeter swans. The narrative framework problem? Well I still haven’t quite addressed that, because every time I try I just start thinking of E.B. White’s The Trumpet of the Swan, and I get distracted.

After my most recent spate of research, trumpeter swans may have entered the list of my top five favorite birds. Over 5 feet tall, between 20 and 30 pounds and with wingspans sometimes exceeding 7 feet, trumpeters are massive—among the heaviest flying birds in the world, and the largest species of waterfowl. All this and they survive almost entirely on the squiggly green plants in ponds. You know the stuff, the plants that brush against your legs in lakes and rivers and freak you out because you think they might be some sort of water monster. Pondweed and waterweed. Damp salad, essentially. That’s what trumpeters eat. You probably already know that trumpeters usually mate for life, can live up to 20+ plus years, are excellent jazz musicians, and communicate by writing on a slate hung around their necks. (Ok, so E.B. White got some of his facts wrong, but what do you expect from someone who tried to make a sympathetic hero out of a spider?)

Trumpeters once ranged across the Rocky Mountain west, but were thought to be extinct in the lower 48 by the early 1900s. However, a flock of some 30 birds was discovered in Montana’s remote Centennial Valley (on the Montana-Idaho border) in the 1930s. Red Rock Lakes National Wildlife Refuge at the foot of the Centennial Mountains was established soon after to protect these incredible birds. Today, 70 pairs reside in the western U.S. year-round; 56 pairs live in the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem, while other flocks live as far afield as Northern California and Southern Oregon. An additional 5,700 birds winter in the Greater Yellowstone area. In addition to Red Rock Lakes, you see swans in Montana in the Madison River complex, the Jefferson River complex, Yellowstone, the Bitterroot River area, and (seasonally) around the Seeley-Swan Valley.

In my research, I discovered these two episodes from Mutual of Omaha’s Wild Kingdom about Red Rocks Lake NWR (Part I and Part II). This are fantastic, not just because they are informative, but for the awesome 1970s music and cinematography.

Oh, and one more picture to round off the post: in addition to being beautiful, graceful, and magnificent, trumpeters can also apparently be territorial bullies:

Italy | Italian activists are preparing a new Antifascist Caravan to Donbas

David Cacchione, Italian activist: We are preparing a new Antifascist Caravan in support of Donbass

From the very beginning of the Maidan and the tragedy at the House of Trade Unions in Odessa, we have tried in every way to support the antifascists of Donbass.

 Theaters, concerts, interviews, debates: Everywhere, we talk about the mass killings of civilians, bombs that fall every day and violate the Minsk agreement. We declare the OSCE observers as “deliberately ignorant” as the governments which pay them. Europe disregards the facts, European governments finance the Nazi government in Kiev, and the war continues.
Along with many of our comrades and together with the USB (Unione Sindacale di Base) we are preparing an Antifascist Caravan which is scheduled to arrive in Donbass on May 1, 2017, to help, to show once again who are the antifascists of Europe, the union workers who will never abandon the people of Donbass.
No pasaran!

“NOT New York. NOT Philadelphia. Proud to be New Jersey’s 101.5!!!!”

It’s a familiar call sign to anyone who grew up answering “what exit?” New Jersey 101.5 was the Garden State’s flagship station, and its call sign blaring between traffic updates was practically white noise growing up.

I always hated it.

I mean, what does it say about the character of a state when this slogan—meant to inspire civic  pride in who we are—defines us by who we are not? But it’s impossible to understand New Jersey without acknowledging the twin shadows it lives in. The top half of New Jersey is swallowed up by New York media, and the bottom by Philadelphia—and we are embraced by neither.

There's a chip on your shoulder that comes from growing up in New Jersey. We're a place between places—constantly reminded that important things are happening somewhere else.

It’s hard to imagine a young Martin Brodeur knew of this little brother's complex when he was first drafted by the Devils. Or maybe a kid from French speaking Montreal already had an affinity with the second class citizenship of the Garden State. I don’t know.

All I know was he joined a team whose history was one memorable run in the late 80s, an infamous shouting match between their head coach and a fat referee, and a sick burn by Wayne Gretzky. No matter how you shook it, it was the third team in the area's fourth sport—and playing for them was no one's dream come true.

But right away, he made the most of it. After all, his rookie year they went all the way to game 7 of the Eastern Conference finals—ending famously with the call of “Mattaue, Mattaue!”

And, of course, that was the call that ushered the hated New York Rangers into the Stanley Cup Final—serving to be a memorable moment along their "historic" run. In typical New York fashion, that Stanley Cup was celebrated like it ended the war—literally.

Messier, newly named “Messiah,” hoisted the cup in front of a crowd of a million people as they paraded down the “Canyon of Heroes”—just as Eisenhower did after winning World War II, and as Neil Armstrong did after landing on the Moon.

Same difference.

Same difference.

That’s where, I believe, Brodeur learned what it means to be New York.

A year later, the Devils hoisted their Stanley Cup parade in a parking lot.

This was the largest image I could find—because it was that well documented.

This was the largest image I could find—because it was that well documented.

That’s when, I believe, Brodeur learned what it means to be New Jersey.

The infamous parking lot parade had a weird vibe. The dominant run through the playoffs and a remarkable sweep of the vastly favorited Detroit Red Wings should have been a validating moment—but instead it was undercut by headlines of the NHL “not standing in the way” of the teams rumored sale to Nashville. Furthermore, there was already chatter of this cup not counting because of the lock-out shortened season.

And the celebration itself was low-rent in that typical New Jersey way. I mean, Joe Piscopo was the grand marshal, because of course he was. In a strange way, the Devil's success seemed to confirmed our second class status—as the world met our first championship with a dismissive shrug.

But something was brewing in the Garden State. The 95' team wasn't a blip on the radar, but the start of something special. Bit by bit, Marty Brodeur backstopped a team that kept racking up wins. And while the media typically made sure New Jersey's success went uncelebrated, they couldn't ignore three Stanley Cups and the regular season dominance.

But the attention was the exact kind of attention you’d expect New Jersey to get.

The style of play was boring, and bad for hockey. Broduer was just a product of his system who didn’t face enough shots. Even rules were changed because he was too good at parts of his game. He became the only great player in profession sports to be criticized for being the backbone of a good team.

Despite winning, he couldn't win. And there is nothing more New Jersey than that.

He’s a Jersey guy. But unique among us, he’s one who chose to be.

After all, he could have gone anywhere else. He could have seen what the Rangers were paying to poach our second and third line centers and crossed the Hudson himself. Or he could have "gone back home" like the latest wave of “franchise” players that followed in Newark, and returned to Montreal with a hero's welcome.

But he didn’t. Instead he chose to stay in New Jersey, and made it his home. And while he was there, he kept winning. And winning. And winning. Until he had more wins than anyone else. Until he was a 40-year old man, defying aging and dragging his team that no longer had the legendary defense in front of him past Philadelphia and past New York and into the Stanley cup finals one last time.

Yeah...that happened.

Yeah...that happened.

And all of the official NHL records he’s broken—well they say New Jersey right next to his name. He gave us something special that is uniquely belongs to New Jersey. His legacy.

But part of that legacy is New Jersey now has an expectation to win. They have to plan for the future, and as heartbreaking as it is, that no longer includes Marty Broduer. The Devils have moved on.

Brodeur still wants to play—and he should. But it’s undeniably strange to approach the season unsure of where he’ll end up. Here's a guy who could have gone anywhere, and now he's twisting in the wind—holding out for the right opportunity to keep winning.

It's all so uncertain, except for one thing—if Marty Broduer is going to keep playing, he’ll be doing in another team’s sweater. And when he steps onto New Jersey ice, we will cheer for him, regardless of the team he plays for.

...Just so long as it’s not New York. And not Philadelphia.

5 Places in Auburn for Outdoor Adventures

Posted on March 27, 2017 at 2:00pm 0 Comments

In this day in age with phones, computers, video games and other technological devices, staying cooped up in the house mesmerized by a screen is becoming a more common activity than going outside and enjoying the great outdoors. Instead of following today's society's fascination with electronics and social media, gather your friends and enjoy all of the natural beauty Auburn has to offer. Auburn is a beautiful place with endless outdoor locations to explore, so I've…

Spring Cleaning

After an exciting game of flag football we spent the whole weekend cleaning, organizing, and getting rid of "crap" that has built up over the year! We had a huge trash can bin that we filled and emptied 3 times. We went to Goodwill twice, sold old clothes at Plato's closet (garments made a lot of clothes useless for Alison!), and we now have 3 hall shelves empty for us to use for whatever. It feels so good to have a nice clean home. We are not done yet but got the organizing done. We now have the bathroom and kitchen to organize and clean. We figure we got one more year left here so let's try to make it nice and clean. 26 years later I finally understand about having a clean house. Better enjoy it now before I have kids who make a mess.
Today I got free lunch at MOE'S again...thank you Birthday coupons! Also After selling Clothes to "Plato's closet" we got back $16.50....I know it's nothing near what we spend on clothes but it was better than just getting rid of them and getting nothing!

Summer time

This summer I will only have work and one class. I need to find something to occupy my time. I love learning about German soldiers on the eastern front so if anyone knows some good books or movies then let me know. I know we will get our moneys worth out of NetFlix but reading a good book is always nice.
If I do not get any good suggestions then I will be playing ALOT...I mean ALOT of video games. So many video games Alison will take a bat to the XBOX 360. So give me some summer ideas on facebook or through my email. Summer is finally here!!!!

New Phone

Last night we saw Marley and Me....really cute movie. If you even have a hint of wanting a dog or having a baby then don't watch this movie. It is a great movie about the family. We enjoyed it and we are afraid we will lose the privilege of living next to grandpa since we will have a dog! If you have not seen it put it on your netflix list.

The time has come. I have a new phone! After tinkering with my mom's phone I decided to go with the one she has. So far I have not picked out my own cell phone. I just go with what other's have around me. The only person jealous of the new phone is Alison. Her phone looks like a fossil with my phone in the room. When i figure out my new phone number I will let you know. I think Andrew and my dad have the new phone number so ask them! ;)

The Orange and Blue Spring Football game was this past weekend and WOW! We had an attendance record of 65,000. It was a full house! Parking was also CRAZY! Usually we start at $20 a spot and go down but instead we went up since parking was getting full every where! It was a great day and atmosphere. Brantley is the backup QB to Tebow and he did awesome. We will be okay when Tebow is gone! Football season is a religion down here in the south.

For Easter we spent it down with family in Orlando. What a weekend it was. Every time we get together with the "cousins" they put on a crazy show! The real highlight of the weekend was when Max put a stuffed animal near grandpa and he thought it was a real mouse and flipped. I really thought grandpa was going to die right then and there of  a heart attack. It was really funny. We got our ORANGE and BLUE Easter basket and it was an overall great weekend! Good seeing everyone! Grandpa said we can not live near him in Orlando if we have a no pets for us right now! Next weekend is the ORANGE and BLUE spring football game! We will see if we can break the attendance record of 40,000+....!

We are loving NETFLIX. So far 2 movies down and a lot more to go. This movie last night was awesome. Since I am going to be taken German I left the German language on and had English subtitles. The movie had some great parts when it came time to show factory to factory fighting and also a great scene of a thousand  soldiers trying to leave on a plane made for 50. Great movie and it makes me hate the Russian winters even more. Next up on the list....
Alison is watching NETFLIX online right now. So life is good. We can send the movie out on Monday and by Wednesday have a new one. We are enjoying it and suggest it to everyone. It saves a fortune in renting fees and we have gotten our moneys worth with in a week!

Yesterday was Alison's birthday. For the most part she thought she was going to spend her birthday alone since she had class all day and I was playing basketball. (I was only playing basketball to help with her surprise party). At around 8:30pm she gave me a call when I was on my way home saying "I am lonely come home, it's my birthday I want you to be here." Little did she know I had a little something planned for her. At around 9pm I knocked on the door and she came to open it. There was Her friends and me yelling happy birthday. Britani got her an ice cream cake made of her favorite ice cream "Phish food", her friend Tricia brought some flowers for her, and I got her.....

A new Perfume she had been wanting. I also got her some lotion and NETFLIX. Most people feel I will be the benefactor of her presents.....movies and good smells! GOOD TIMES! So Alison got to have ice cream cake with her friends here and we spent the rest of the night goofing around. I love you Alison and thank you for being a great wife! Happy Birthday!

Conference....good times. Alison and me stayed home and watched both Sunday sessions. What a good time. I am always curious about what other people think of conference and what they got out of it. From my understanding it was "HEY, STOP WASTING TIME, STUDY MORE, LIFE IS ONLY WHAT YOU MAKE IT SO DON'T TAKE ANYTHING FOR GRANTED!" Alison and I have a goal now to go to the temple at least once a month! Once we graduate we are going to try and live close to the temple. If we live in Orlando we will try and go once a week followed by PHASE 10 with Grandma and Grandpa.

The Free Food Way

Just got another email for my birthday. Alison and I went to Applebee's and had a nice sit down dinner with all the old folks who eat dinner at 5:30. When ever we go out now it is for free or a major discount! Love those food coupons I get in my email! Anyone else got any more fast food places or restaurants that I can sign up for? Alison got a coupon for a free entree from Moe's that is good for a more free MOE'S...WELCOME TO MOE'S!

Since Spanish class was not going so well I decided to pick up a new language class. Any guesses? yep, German. You think learning German would be hard and I am sure it would be but I am not taking a language only class. It will be a class that teaches BASIC German language and culture. So instead of being bombarded with language learning we will also have a break to learn about other things the German culture has to offer. So wish me luck and I know it will be great. We are hoping learning this helps for when we move over to Germany for awhile. Living in Europe would be great so that I could see the sites of WW II and other historical things that most people would never get a chance to see.

We're the Millers (2013)
November 19, 2015 8:49 PM - Subscribe

A small pot dealer is robbed of his money and stash, some of which he owes to his wealthy drug lord supplier. Brad Gurdlinger, the drug lord, forces him to smuggle marijuana from Mexico as a solution to clear his debt. Realizing that one man attempting to get through customs is too suspicious, he hires a stripper neighbor, a runaway and petty thief named Casey, and his 18-year-old neighbor Kenny , to pose as a bogus family called the "Millers".

Funniest movie I have seen the last few years, know what I'm sayin?

This movie was a lot of fun. 'Twas nice to see Ed Helms as a villain. And Emma Roberts was unexpectedly great.

No movie in recent memory has surprised me more. That spit-take in the airplane scene is perfect (and I respect a well-done spit-take)! Kathryn Hahn is excellent as usual.

I'd like to hear why this movie is so enjoyable: Obviously it's for stoners and obviously it's very funny... The use of background music is superb... The acting is nuanced and spot on, etc.

Many of the small joys re-watching it is how well they use the bit players, the folks who has a few seconds of screen time, maybe a line or two, whose main function is to support the main characters or advance the plot. The truth is that more often than not, you absorb their faces, their ticks, and their hand movement without noticing how much they add to the story.

I'd like to start making making space for some of those actors. Like it is said before, some of them actors have small rolls in hundreds of movies, and it's fun to search for them, if you have nothing better to do.

So here are a few:

"Rick Nathanson"
"The TSA Agent"
Man at the barber - "Here"
Ben Folds as the piano teacher
and of course Luis Guzmán as the gay Mexican cop

This was surprisingly okay, I mean for a kind of guilty pleasure comedy, like Wanderlust*. I keep trying to get people to watch Your Highness, and Hell Baby, I'm not even sure if I'm kidding.

I liked this movie far more than I expected to, and not just because I could lift the clip of Sudeikis saying "Don's a badass" to send all my friends.

One thing I remember noticing was that they managed to have really batshit behavior - Aniston flinging the "pot baby" into traffic, for example - and excuse it to others in a way that was at least marginally believable. Add to that the fact that they seem to have some actual affection for some of the characters that are butts of jokes for their personalities. Offerman's Don is held up as laughable but still has worth beyond what he can do for the protagonists.

I also enjoyed this movie way more than I was expecting. Laughed my fool head off.

William Morris Books

William Morris is considered to be the father of modern epic fantasy. He first put together the formula of a young man tossed into a grand adventure in a magical world. It is the classic epic fantasy quest story and Tolkien himself pays homage to Morris as one of his inspirations.

The Well at World's End Learn more

If you are a fan of epic fantasy and you have never heard of William Morris then you are in for a real treat. It all started with the publication in 1892 of his novel The Well at the World's End. This is an outstanding piece of Epic Fantasy and it is considered to be the first epic fantasy work of the modern era.

Here is a quick synopsis of the novel : The youngest son of a king (Ralph of Upmeads) runs away from home and kingdom, but before he goes his godmother gives him a necklace with a bead on it. He overcomes many obstacles and challenges on the way to his destiny at the well at the world's end.

Does this sound familiar. It is a template that many have further expanded on and some of the more familiar modern day masters such as C.S. Lewis and J.R.R. Tolkien have openly proclaimed homage to Morris.

The Wood Beyond the World (Considering purchasing this novel? Learn More here)

Another classic epic fantasy tale by William is The Wood Beyond The World This one is a tale of a hero named Walter and his epic sea voyage. This novel and The Well at the World's End are works that absolutely have to be in the collection of any fan of epic fantasy.
