The Usual

2008-05-13T13:50:00.002-04:00

Wait for it

Wait for it

Wait for it

... ... the same as usual!

Man! I lead an exciting life. Just slightly more exciting than the man with the big boat, Noah.

As of now, I don't see any exciting changes in the near future.

Go Cavs!! Go Magic!! Go Penguins!!

AAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH AGAIN

2008-05-06T13:21:00.002-04:00

Well. as usual, nothing excitingly out of the ordinary.

The only thing different we did this week was to go out shopping. It was more to check out the new shopping center near us. I checked out the new Best Buy, while I was there I completed my "8 Films To Die For Horrorfest". Now I have both sets completed. This Sunday I'll try to watch all of them. Mom checked out the new book store, Books-A-Million. Dad just wandered around the sports section until Mom was ready to go.

Then we went out to Cracker Barrel. I had an orange cream soda, it was OK, nothing to write home about.

Tonight the Cavs start their second round against Boston. This will be a tough series. I'm hoping Cleveland can pull it out.

That's pretty much it. I'll see ya next week.

Call it what you want!!!

Sunday was a very busy day for me. I had four sporting events going on at the same time. I had picture-in-picture on both my TV and my monitor.

I had the Cavs on the big picture and the Indians on the little one on the TV and on the monitor I had the NASCAR race on the big one and the hockey game on the little one. Not many people can watch four sports at the same time.

During this I told Mom I needed another TV (or two). LOL

I haven't watched any good movies recently. Judging by Noah's reveue I definately will not watch "Atonement".

I have nothing else. See you guys next week.

Earth Day

2008-04-22T13:47:00.002-04:00

It's Earth Day, but it's just a bunch of dirt to me.

If I had a mule that I was pulling behind a truck I would say "my ass is draggin' ", but I really am feeling much better. Not 100% , but about 99%.

(The above was an unsolicited input from Mr FA (Fat Ass, aka Noah)

Not a whole lot going on. Bowling season is almost done (Thank God!!!) I can't take much more of Mom & Dad "mailing in" the rest of the season.

I guess I should watch the news so I would have something more to talk about. I'm sure something is going on with the Primaries.

I have nothing, so I'm just gonna sign off for this week.

PS
Feel free to post comments. It would be nice to hear from y'all.

I'm Feeling Better!

2008-04-16T13:55:00.004-04:00

Monday & Tuesday I was definitely sick. I won't go into too many details, but I was a hurtin' puppy. Today I'm feeling about 90% and back on solid food. Yesterday was the first time I ever drank Vernor's Ginger Soda. It was definitely different, but it helped to settle my stomach.

I didn't watch any movies this week, I did watch the Masters. I didn't really like the outcome, but Tiger can't win every time.

My Indians are stinking these first couple weeks. Noah is trying to make me jump on the Rays bandwagon, but that'll never happen, I'm loyal to the death!

Hockey playoffs have started, and so far Pittsburgh Penguins are undefeated. The basketball playoffs start in a few days or so.

Noah says the Magic are going to EAT the Cavs, which will be hard because the Magic will be on the golf course while the Cavs are in the NBA finals again.

UUUMMMMMMMMMM! I Don't Know

2008-04-08T13:29:00.004-04:00

This week was very uneventful. I didn't do a whole lot different. I watched a couple movies, one of which I already saw and the other you need to be a genius to understand.

I didn't watch the Final Four, although I heard the title game was very exciting. On the Women's side, I wanted CT to win, but they didn't.

The NASCAR race stunk, but not as bad as the Indy Race.

I'll be watching the Masters this week, rooting for Tiger, go figure!

OK, I've babbled enough. Hope I have more to write about next week.

Cio for now

Play Ball!!

2008-04-01T13:36:00.003-04:00

One of my favorite times, Baseball Season.

Yesterday was, in my opinion, the true Opening Day! I know, technically, Opening Day was when the Red Sox & Athletics played in Japan, but it just wasn't Opening Day to me.

I watched F I V E games yesterday including my Indians who were given a victory by the umpires. I'll take it, it wasn't pretty, but I'll take it.

One of the best parts of the baseball season is Fantasy Baseball. It gives me a good reason to watch the games and to ignore all the negatives off the field problems (i.e. steroids, gambling and other stuff).

I haven't bought any movies that I can talk about. Although I still have about nine on the shelf that I haven't watched yet. I should probably watch those before I buy any more new ones.

If you guys can suggest any movies I can check out, just contact me through the comments section of this Blog or email me.

I think I've rambled on enough for this week. I'll talk to you guys next week.

Picture News

2008-03-25T13:23:00.006-04:00

The big news this week is that I am going to make my snapshots available from this BLOG. To see all my Photo Albums click here

Nothing else is going on that's exciting this week so I'll just say so long for now.

I hope you all had a Happy Easter.

Times Are Changing

2008-03-18T13:40:00.001-04:00

For several years now I've been maintaining my own site/domain name. I don't know if it was the novelty or the "in thing" to do. Lately the lustre has worn off and I just don't have the creative energy or html knowledge to really make the site the way I want it to be.

So, I have decided to jump on the new "in thing" bandwagon, BLOGGING!

I'll be able to keep all of you (?) up-to-speed on my goings on and share pictures and other things with all of you without having to use pay software and worry about losing my site if my computer goes down. Most important, I'll be able to save money by not having to pay for a host.

Eventually, You'll be able to see this page by going to my domain http://www.justinsokolowski.net/ and NOT be redirected. But no matter where you log in now, you wind up here, which is where you should be.

Now on to me. Healthwise I'm doing just great. I'm excited that all my shows are returning. I watched a couple of movies lately, three Steven Segal movies. One was "Pistol Whipped". The other two were so impressive I already forgot their titles. Don't get me wrong, they were OK if you like Steven Segal movies and don't care what they are called (LOL). He just has never done well written movies. Another movie I finally watched was "Transformers". I loved it. It was one of the most visually stunning movies I've seen in a long, long time. If you haven't seen it you should!

Baseball season is here. Yahoo!!! Hopefully my Indians can make it all the way to the World Series this year. I wish they would have made a little more of an impact in the free agent market. They didn't lose anybody too important, so hopefully they can maintain last year and maybe improve with the experience.

I think that'll be it for this week.

Hope you all have a big week and I'll see you next time.

Computers And The Web Are Frustrating

2008-03-11T15:02:00.001-04:00

Well, today was very frustrating!

I tried to redirect my domain name to this page and proceeded to mess EVERYTHING up, including my mail.
I sort of have it jerryrigged into working ... temporarily. Hopefully by next week I'll have it set up the way it should be.
Other than that, I have no real news to report.
Talk to you guys next week.

In The Beginning ....

2008-03-04T16:49:00.002-05:00

In the beginning Justin created a blog and he said it was good.

I just made all that up and none was copied or plagerised (wink, wink)

For a couple years now I wanted to make a blog, but for many reasons I didn't. Instead I maintained a website that was inspired by the blog format. Lately I've gotten more disenchanted with maintaining all that a website requires when really all I wanted to do was tell you all what I was doing and thinking.

So, here I am trying out this method.
