3rd Place? At least we got a medal

Well, we didn't dominate as expected in the 2nd Official Brooklyn Shuz Tournament.  The competition was a little steeper, and they were gun'n for us.  We got knocked out in the semi's by the team that ended up taking the gold.  It was a great game for both of us, but they definitely earned the W.

Shoutout to Bobcat and Team Vodka/Redbull for blowing it in the finals 2 years straight.  We love you guys, and we feel your pain ;)

What's better: 2 silvers? or 1 gold and 1 bronze?  I don't know, but my neck is getting sore from all this precious metal.  See you next tourny.

Crikey!

It's like animal planet around here lately. A yard full of bunnies, a bear, and now a family of deer? .75 acres of animals in the wild. . . Aww wow would yi look at the sawz awf thet wann!

extreme unicycling

i rep the fact that i can ride a unicycle.  yep, the UNI can ride a unicycle.  BUT, by no means, can i do any of this.

make sure you check the picnic table sickness at 0:46 seconds.

i'm hangin my food from a tree from now on

So there i am, sittin on my porch with Wifington, eating some steak, minding my own business, when 2 cars slam on their brakes on Rt.46  right in front of my house.  They immediately reverse and start coming up my driveway. . . very slowly.   I stand up to analyze the shadiness, and what comes walking up ahead of them!?!?!?!?  a bear.   I mean, A BEAR!!!!  This thing was a monster.  I'm talking - up to my chest - big.  Up to my chest while he (she?) was on all fours big.  I almost pooped myself.  

He looked up at us, i was certain he was gonna smell the delicious meal i grilled up, but he kept on walking right up the driveway toward Russling Rd.

I ran back in and through the house and opened the other door that faces Russling.  This friggin monster was 10 feet away from me in the yard.  Luckily i had no shirt on, because i think he feared for his life and decided to turn away and disappear into the neighbor's woods.

It was definitely the biggest bear i've seen in person, especially in the wild.  I'm definitely glad to have had the experience, but it does make me a little nervous having young kids and all - ie: I'm not sure Caleb and Noah could intimidate him as easily as i did ;) 

they found me, i don't know how but they found me

i'm always jumpin around the black hole of the internet trying to find the best/easiest way to keep everyone updated on me (and my family).  in anticipation of buying an iphone, and posting on the go, i'm ditching iWeb and self-hosted blogs.  i'm sick of myspace, facebook is annoying, so i'm going here for a while.  

hopefully y'all won't get too annoyed as i plan on posting about my family, my music, and all of my other interests, like it's one big happy family of blogs.  man, i already hate that word.  blog. argh, we'll see how it goes.
