today i want to see how faithful my 3-5 followers are by turning over this post to u to fill in the blanks about me. if u would please fill in the blank that bests answers the question about this anchor from ur opinion:

i think the anchor would be best suited for this line of work ___________________! any takers will make this anchor feel extra special (and it's needed now more than ever).

i got some tunes 4 u

honestly i am really bored tonight, and instead of going to bed and getting the much needed rest my body and mind really need right now i am going to see what will my mind think of to write for my loyal readers (all 5 of ya). the thought that keeps coming to my mind is to tell the masses of the historic event of finally getting my p.c. fixed after some evil doer sent an incredibly horrible virus to my p.c. that ended its life or so they thought. lucky this anchor is very blessed with some incredible friends that have some incredible talents (i am sure as i am writing this post there are several of my followers (around 5) that have some incredible talents as well). so i spent the day at some friends house playing rock band and getting my p.c. rid of the horrid virus which had plagued and worked on it's demise. after we (my friend doing all the work & me watching) got the old baby up and running again. after the o.s. there was 1 thing that had to go on first and that being the most important of any pc....... ITUNES! after being without itunes for several months my taste in music had started to wane and my ears needed a pick me up from all the garbage i was forced to listen i needed it and in a big way. i kept thinking about becoming a terrorist just so i could go over to guantanamo and listen to some better music. it was a very sad and dark time in my life not being with my tunes. so now i have my tunes back and my depression (although somewhat still there) is almost gone and the grey skies are clearing up for now. on that note, i am listening to some new tunes and u can't wipe the smile off this anchor (at least for now).

i want my time back!

the title of my post today is the best way i can describe how this past men's ncaa (no one watches the women, especially if its notre dame and tx a&m) basketball tournament went. i'm not saying that cause none of the teams i picked made it to the big dance, but because almost every game i watched was either a blowout or a close game but played really poorly. there was some great moments as there always is, but overall it was really one bad team advancing over a decent to mediocre team. my final four picks where ohio state vs. duke and kansas vs. ucla with ohio state and kansas playing for the championship and kansas taking it all. to my credit i think any combination of those teams tonight would have been better than what i witnessed tonight with butler vs. uconn. come to think of it i would have rather watched a youth center game with 10 years old trying to learn the sport than the game tonight. if i was brad stevens i would have my team (and possibly even staff) put on a suicide watch for at least tonight possibly longer, and tomorrow morning i would have the team go back to a youth center and relearn how to make a bucket,block out for rebounds, and make free throws. start them off with the basics (appears to be much needed after what i witnessed) and then have them do lay up drills. the only highlight for me tonight when i was watching the game (and not doing chores to keep myself awake) was listening to the announcers and commentators try to say and do anything to keep people wanting to keep watching the game cause of how bad it was. i know now that thanks to tonight's championship game that in a little less than a year when march madness kicks off again there is going to be some majors changes to ncaa basketball to make sure a game like tonight's doesn't happen again. good night and good luck to those guards posted outside the butler mens team hotel rooms.

a response to my previous post

as i stated in my previous post that i would give my 5 readers a quick update before i move out of my house. so before i move out today (for my own security now) i would like to say (as if my 5 readers didn't already know) happy april fools day. yes this anchor is happily hunkered down with his wife who in a couple months we will be celebrating 10 year of marital bliss (and some not so martial blissful moments). i want to apologize to the chetman for shaking up his march 31 evening with the post. i do appreciate the concern, and sorry that my last post cut into his nice evening with his folks. hope they enjoy there stay with you (and hopefully no muggings will occur on ur watch). i must admit my wife and father n law almost got me on april fool day by using my post against. luckily for me, my wife can't keep a straight face when she's trying to prank me, but like i told her there is always next year. so i hope this clears the air on yet another april fools day come and gone.

p.s. - steph - luckily for me our couch is really comfortable right now, but i think the payback will be when the kids are running around waking me up before dawn.
