You Have Been Warned...

So don't blame me if you don't get superpowers from playing in toxic waste. #justsayin'

UPDATE - Fantasy Football teams have drafted.

For all of those in the fantasy football league go and take a look at your team. The league drafted overnight and so the season can officially start now.

As far as my team is concerned I can tell already that I am going to to want to work a trade or two or my team will be in trouble...

What do you think of your team? Anyone want to trade?

A few updates...

-Last week was a really brutal week at work. In addition to just coming back from vacation I was asked to take on a whole lot of additional work. Back to the days where I had an assistant kind of work. Not sure what I'm going to do but I certainly don't really have any blog/twitter time anymore. Last week was so bad I came home from work Friday very close to a full blown anxiety attack. Thank goodness for the weekend. Hopefully this week will be better but that is yet to be seen. (and hopefully I get a chance to get caught up on reading your blogs)

-Our new roof is going on the house today. This makes me very happy. Insurance took care of the entire replacement cost including the garage that was not effected (so that the shingles will match) Yay, One less thing we need to take care of before selling this house! Now if we could just get someone to take care of paying to replace the carpet.

-If you are a member of the blog and twitter Fantasy football league please make sure that you are ready for the draft. This time next Monday I will be turning on the draft so there will be plenty of time to make trades after the draft is over.

-We found out this past week that Lil Doc will be starting soccer this coming Saturday. Nothing could make me happier. He is excited too. I don't think this 3 year old soccer is going to much resemble the World Cup but it's organized team soccer where I think he will benefit not only from the running around (and getting tired out) but also taking direction and learning rules from someone other that my wife and I. Several of his friends are on the same team so all the parents are going to hang out and watch. And it's safe to assume a few pictures will be taken.

-Summer reading quest update. I am halfway through year six in my summer quest to re-read the Harry Potter series. I am still really enjoying it. Great summer reads. I would be finished except that I took a break and read the new Daniel Silva book while on vacation last week. (The Rembrandt Affair by Silva was great and I highly recommend it as well) Should finish up the Potter Series in about 5- 7 days. Then want to try books recommended to me by The Mt. Cat by Dennis Lehane.

-Is anyone else left a little bit angry that accused Craigslist killer Philip Markoff committed suicide this weekend? This is a person who deserved to have to answer for what he was accused of doing (and apparently did) in a court of law. Suicide is the chicken way out.

Fantasy Football update!

As I am still trying to get caught up at work I wanted to remind everyone in the blog and twitter league to go in and make sure they have their pre-ranking of their players done. This is key to making sure you get players that you want and maybe more importantly NOT getting players you don't want. The draft is still over a week and a half away but it never hurts to be prepared. Drop me an email or comment with any questions and yes I promise that YJKOBT will return when I get time to make a proper post.

Back from vacation....

I'm back from vacation and at work trying to get caught up. We had a great trip that was lots of fun including my son catching his first fish, one of the highlights for sure! Let me get caught up today and hopefully I can update things tomorrow.
Until then here is a picture of Lil Doc proudly showing his first fish!

This Blog is on Vacation

I will be back next week so please don't forget about me while I'm off on the NOFO having fun. Enjoy this Picasso painting of Don Quixote while I'm gone. My parents have this painting (minus the On vacation part) in their house and I love it. (and don't forget to pre-rank your fantasy football players as the draft is not far away)
