All I Do is Win
Well, tonight is an amazing and historic night. The Texas Rangers baseball team has clinched the ALCS title to go to the World Series. I am ecstatic, being a fan of any sports team from Texas, but especially from Dallas. I am so excited, the World Series, the last dance. Going to that old stadium as a kid and then going to the new one as an adult and being denied the chance to see one of the greatest series of American history. Finally, to get to see that happen, to see the excitement in the air and the fans that you don't even know coming up to you and saying, "The Rangers in the World Series, can you believe it?" Oh, yes I can. I knew it would take a dedicated man like Nolan Ryan to get the Rangers to a spot after the initial first round, but this is more than I imagined someone could pull off in one season. So, here is to the Rangers, my team. WE WILL WIN, WE WILL PREVAIL!

Let the Bodies Hit the Floor
OK, I am back! If anyone is under a rock out there, something big is happening, game 3 of the MLB Playoffs with Texas and New York was a SHUTOUT by the Rangers. 8-0 Rangers tore into the Yankees with 6 runs in the 9th inning. Awesome job guys, finally the Rangers name will mean something, not just that team that can't win. I have been a fan of all my local teams since I can remember. Will never go against the Cowboys, Mavericks, Stars, and Rangers.
So, I have been mainly playing on Modern Warfare 2, I love killing my pix-elated friends, it is fun. I can shoot them and stab them with no worries of jail time. I am all about sneaking and finding that one guy that I can just run up behind and kill. Ahhhh, satisfaction.
Well, getting tired, so this is good night.

Ahhhh, New fun!
OK, some things that are coming up and are fun and interesting. A few notes, some of these links or references are for adult audiences I have warned you. First off, I am a video gamer, one of the best games in its genre is releasing its third installment Assassins Creed: Brotherhood. This should be interesting and fun, it seems like they have expanded on the last installment and took it a step further. You now recruit for the Assassins, this looks fun. Also, if you are near a Gamestop you can preorder and if you do this before 9/27/10 and register online, you can be part of the beta. I know I am, multiplayer, even more interesting.
Secondly, one new sow that caught my eye is the new HBO series Boardwalk Empire. One of my favorite actors is in there Steve Buscemi. Always impressed by his performances. If you are not familiar with his name, he was in movies like Armageddon, The Big Lebowski, Reservoir Dogs as Mr. Pink, and Pulp Fiction. Anyway, if you like a little bit of gangster and historical, this is a good show. It is about the prohibition era, very interesting and a fictitious back story.
SO, I hope this will keep some of you interested and entertained for a little while. Will be back with more suggestions later. OH, and the beard has changed.
Have fun,

Apology to my Bartender
The prior post was a bit harsh, I would like to take this time and apologize to my bartender. Here goes, I know that I was a bit too open about my opinions the other night, I hope that you can forgive me and will not keep me from my beer.
There, but in all seriousness, the bartender in question is a good guy, I realize now that I, being the long time bar-goer, was the better option to deal with at that time. I was leaving anyways, and I respect them enough to stop myself and back down on their request. Any of you who tend to get a bit fussy at times need to learn this, you will be the better person by leaving and preventing a serious situation for those people, they have to deal with some dumb asses at times, adding to that does not help.
Hope everyone has a good time next time they go out, just remember this.

What Happened?????
So, I had an awesome weekend. I got to spend time with someone that cares for me. I enjoyed that immensely. I also got to spend time in her arms, which is better than anything in the world.
Yet tonight I had a woman actually confront me, which was interesting, she was a bit harsh and somewhat of a bitch. I advised her that she was possibly drunk and should just stop talking. Her date decided this would be the time to make his impressive move. What a dumb ass. I as a gentleman advised that I was going home, yet he still advanced. I was then led out by the bartender. I felt that I was unjustly led out, I had been a customer for a while and have NEVER had any issues, yet now, I was the one that was told to leave. This upsets me due to the fact that I had a relationship with the bar and now I was the one in the wrong, because of the fact that one woman decided that was the night she was being a bitch, telling me I was not a man and had no one that cared for me (in her words). So, I say, who is right? I was willing to just forgive and forget, yet she kept on.

Love Today
Well, here we are again, but, this time had to restrain myself and get someone to go home. I know, odd, but so wish I had the chance this week to spend more time with her. Now, on to the more important. I had the best night I have had in a LONG time, my good friend was there and my new friend. We had a blast, my new friend actually got up and sang karaoke for the first time, I was ecstatic that I was there and was able to be a part of it. It is a serious moment. If anyone out there has not done karaoke, you need to. It is the best stress relief ever. But I am glad that my new friend came, she was fun, had a great time. Now I am not expecting her to go all out, but, might be able to bribe her to get up and sing. Well, getting tired here, hope everyone has a good night or day depending on when you read this.
