Sprained Ankle = Suck
Saturday afternoon I seriously sprained my ankle. Thought it was broken (made a crunching/popping sound) at first and it was basically the single most painful thing I can remember. =) Iced and elevated it for the rest of the day/night, then went to doctor Sunday morning, walking with the help of a big walking stick […]
20th High School Reunion Videos
Hard to believe it’s been 20 years since high school, but it has. Had our reunion this past weekend and it was a great time! Back in 1988, during the last few days of school I brought a video camera and shot the old school (it’s since been rebuilt). Check out the videos here: http://youtube.com/user/Bradaroonie […]

Battlestar Galactica Final Episode
I know some of you follow BSG, some don’t. And those that do/did may not be caught up on episodes, so just a comment about the last episode before the return in Jan 2009: Another near-mouthdropping “did NOT see this coming” moment. http://www.scifi.com/battlestar/
The Strangers
We were talking about that creepy trailer for The Strangers the other night and how some of us had no interest in seeing it. I wanted to see it, but with the likelihood of that approaching zero I broke down and read the Wiki page here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_strangers Reading this will pretty ruin […]
