Click the Ads

Some of you may have noticed, while others may not have.  If you look up a couple of inches on your screen, you’ll notice that I’ve got ads on the page.  These are generally supposed to be related to things I post on here (compliments of Google Adsense).  OK, I know this is going to sound pathetic, but it actually does help me out when y’all click on one periodically.  Trust me, they’re not paying much, but it’s better than a swift kick in the butt.  I’m not begging (yet), but if you see one that seems remotely interesting, go ahead and click through.  Or, if you have visions of me getting wealthy and hiring you to be part of my entourage, you may want click on a lot of them.  Just a suggestion.

In other news, I’ve actually found my desk.  This is big progress, as I’ve felt just absolutely buried the last few weeks.  I actually started cleaning it on Sunday night, and finished up this morning after a couple of meetings.  I had to rearrange a couple of things, but the space and additional organization feels pretty nice.  I think this is a carry over from my days at TNG, where it seemed like I never had time to try to find my desk.  I would start cleaning, and I’d either find a crisis, or one would find me.

Anyway, that’s it for this one.  I need to update the sports one with some random thoughts.

So the inquiring minds really want to know how the business is working out. I remember an earlier post, after the first quarter or so, that it was all abysmal, so I am wondering if anything is better.

Ann, I'll address your question in an upcoming post.

Karol, all the ads are selected by Google. I couldn't tell you how it works, but they seem to be at least related.

DB--I know that you hav enot seen a movie in years--if you do go to a movie wouldn't it be a posrt s movie or some history piece versus some "fairy tale" like Brokeback Mountain. What do you think about this?

Oh, I would love to know that Derek went to see Brokeback Mountain. Please, THAT would make my WEEK.

Derek hasn't gone to a theater to see a movie since "Independence Day", and I'm not sure how long ago that came out. No, I haven not seent a movie about gay cowboys eating pudding (which actually came from Matt Stone & Trey Parker, the creators of South Park), nor do I have any plans to do so. I have no idea what I'd want to see, since most sports movies get dumbed down by some sort of useless relationship thing in them. Maybe another Naked Gun movie might be able to do the trick.

Karol, if I remember correctly, you fled to the row in front of Greg & me at the last Naked Gun film you attended with us. And as far as the chick flick, well, I survived a week with a pink cube a few years back. I ought to be able to survive two hours of fake people sharing their scripted feelings. That said, I'd much rather watch some college basketball.

We did do OK against the kids, though I still can't believe we lost to Chad, Kim, Jen, Marc, and Mike Colin. I'm particularly surprised because the first 5 minutes went EXACTLY like Greg and I had planned for them to go (Control Colin, guard Kim or Chad, and let Marc drive the ball and miss his layups).
