I have alwasy supported the 'Skins. Once I moved to Maryland, I was very much a fan. Still, I would rather watch NASCAR or the college game.
if:
Are you watching the CL? Goddamn I'm a Celtic fan today!

I haven't seen it yet. A bar where nihilist and I used to work was used for a bit and he may be in it. I really don't know anyone who's seen it except a friend who's really from Jersey so his opinion doesn't count. Nobody's talking about it, which is surprising because everyone talked about Providence and the Joe Pantoliano show about Buddy Cianci is getting buzz.

Federal Hill is a traditionally Italian neighborhood overlooking downtown. It has been the center point of RI (and at times New England) mafia activity for at least 60 years. The Sopranos had an episode which took place there; I think they were helping out the "family" that helped Tony's when they came to America.
It's a strange place because it became a bit ghetto when the city was dying in the 80's and the people who moved in haven't left since our "renaissance" so you have extremely high-end clubs and restaurants pretty much in the hood. It used to be said that there's no unauthorized crime on the hill, but these days you never know.
Sadly, this neighborhood where you're far more likely to see an Italian flag than anything else didn't have one fucking bar open for the Italy-France game, which meant everyone had to go back to my place and I was out of beer. I haven't gone drinking there since.
Federal Hill is also a great movie by local director Michael Corrente, who made Outside Providence and A Shot At Glory, the soccer movie starring Allie McCoist and Robert Duvall.

Right, so I've had some problems since I've gotten back to Indiana in terms of TV, Internet and all that which you think would have been avoided since this is my "Super Senior Victory Lap" year and since I've been in the same house for four years now that it would all be under control and functioning properly.
Well its not, and today I found...

Thank you so much. It means alot coming from someone who has gone through that awful experience.
By the way, my yahoo draft went fine last night (Alexander at the #2 pick, woohoo). I ended up starting another league so my league that got screwed last week could have a proper draft. We're going to keep the other league up so we can see if we're actually any smarter than the auto-draft. I'm also in a league with sg folks in the football group, you should check it out.

I was certainly happy to see the Bhoys add Jan.
I hope they say their five and ten pence and put together five million quid or so and pick up Anatoliy Tymoschuk, because I think this is the guy who can help the hoops put together a few nice runs in Europe. It is a lot to expect from one player, but he can help on defense, let Jiri concentrate on the attack more, and help Celtic put away close games.

Ok. I think I'm addicted to this site...
So, I was having this discussion yesterday with a few e-friends and I thought it was rather interesting:
If you could go back in time to witness one event what would it be and why?
My exact train of thought started at Agincourt (The famous scene from Henry V by Shakespeare), then went over to things like Celtic winning the European Cup and the bouts...

Oh, I would go to Zama, to see Publius Cornelius Scipio Africanus defeat hannibal Barca. Plus, I think it might be fun to sack Carthage.
akalucifer:
love the pics... that you would relive an event with your dad shows a) what a good time you had and a special bond you had with your dad, and b) what a great dad you will one day be.
Will definitely let you know!

I fly out for Amarillo Texas tomorrow from Detroit for a friend's wedding. That's how you know you are getting older. Some of your friends start getting married, although I still think 23 is a bit young to tie the knot.
Once people start having kids I'm sure I'll feel even older.
Should be a good few days. Tomorrow night...

Beer advice.
Shiner Bock is a very popular beer. a German style bock, if you like that. They also have a pretty good lager, Shiner Blonde.
Lone Star is a very light, American style lager.
You should be able to find the black stuff from Ireland, though...I hear you like that.
Those dirty London bastards! I have never heard of a bhoy or ghirl doing anything worse than sleeping in someone's doorway before a game.

Tymoschuk is not really the same kind of player SP is. It is not about replacing a player, it is about getting a an amazing player! Perhaps he is getting passed over by teams like Man U and the Gunners because they think d mids are a dime a dozen. Maybe. But not d mids like Tymoschuk.
I would rather have him than Jan. I think Riordan will provide any additional punch the Bhoys need.

Another boring weekend in store for me in Detroit.
I'm dogsitting my Aunt and Uncle's new jack russell terrier, Samurai, who is as cute as he is annoying at times.
The more I'm around him, the more I think getting a dog would be way too much work for me at this point. Then again, he's not my dog which I guess leads me to...

The real season starts tomorrow, big time friendlies with a full squad, and its about fucking time.
I cannot believe the SPL starts next week, it was just yesterday I was touring Celtic park and the season wasn't even close to starting. Man, how time flies.
A few more weeks and it will be time to start college.
Ah, by the way....
On my travels...

A Pacifico is a Mexican beer. It is brewed in Mazatlan, then across the Sea of Cortez to Baja on the ferry, then in a truck to Cabo. So it is alwasy very fresh, and, in Cabo, draught in a bottle, without the little widget that Guinness has to use. Really the best stuff you can buy down there, The case in only 20 bottles, so gf and I were polishing off about a case a night.
You can get it in the US, at least, you can in Dallas. Is is not draft, though, and very expensive, so I never buy it here.

Thanks for the congrats.
As if I neede another reason for Man City to be my team in the EPL. UEFA refs are so obviously biased. UEFA enat thier dream final, and Madrid and Man U can't make it to the final wthout the refs help.
thats why I got it tattooed on my leg
