Viruses!

I had a bad cold or something last week. My computer also fell victim to the Virtumonde virus. So on a beautiful Saturday I spent over 8 hours restoring my machine to normal. That's why I back up every week.

In other news, I am still doing the workout thing. The six pack is still eluding me, but I seem to be getting a 2 pack and I don't mean the late rapper.

One six pack that did not elude me was Schlitz, the 60's formula. I think it should have stayed in the 60's. I walked into a liquor store last week and saw a big display of them. A couple of days later I picked up some up after a haircut.

I am making a sandwich sign that I will wear in case the economy collapses that says "Will work for beer. "

Coming soon:

My celebrity encounters, MikePod update.

It's not my new york, it's my new jersey!

So we were bored this weekend and were thinking of things to do. We decided to go to the mall. Economic engine that I am, I tried to think of things I needed. I thought how about getting a new Bears jersey. It might be nice to actually go to work on a Saturday and not get razzed over the 14 year old Erik Kramer jersey I have. (Spilled a lot of beer in it.) I got an orange Devin Hester jersey.

Happy Fall

First post of the Fall. On Friday I was working out in the gym and the one TV not tuned to that awful "What I Like About You" show had the local news and it told me that there was a hostage situation in Wheaton that had all trains stopped. So I was making plans to go elsewhere. Luckily the perp did me a favor and took himself out. Ain't I sweet? This meant my train was only delayed 10 minutes. See shot of scene.

On the MikePod:

1) Ozzy Osbourne: The Ultimate Sin: Spilled a lot of beer listening to this in college.

2) U2: How To Dismantle An Atomic Bomb: Very good album, even better iPod commercial

3) The Cult: Manor Sessions/Rain & Revolution/White EPs: I loved these guys in the 80's.
