Okay Cervantes is off the hook
After staring deep into Matt’s eyes on Saturday (if you haven’t tried it, I highly recommend it), I’ve come to the conclusion that he has not stolen my American Beer DVD. Please accept my most sincere apology, Matt. I hope you can forgive me.
Therefore, since Matt is no longer a person of interest in the abduction of this movie, my investigation must continue on. Any persons with information regarding this missing DVD please contact me immediately. A 1-million dollhair reward goes to the first person that provides information that leads to the recovery of said movie.

We made it…barely
Thanks to everyone that helped us this weekend, we’re all moved in to our new house. We’re a littele beat up and bruised, and we’ll probably be in bed by 9pm every night this week, but we’re moved. Yay. You’d think we had moving down to a science, and I’m pretty sure we’re not too far off, but its amazing how much energy, physical and mental, moving takes.
Jackie and I both really love this house, so hopefully we won’t be moving any time soon (though I think we said the same thing about the house we just moved out of). The owners of the house are really nice and are planning on moving into this house in a couple of years, and from what Jackie’s told me, they want us to live there until they do. I have no problems with that. This place is plenty big for the two of us and when the time comes (it hasn’t yet) there’s enough room for us to have a kid.
We’ll be having a housewarming party in the next month or so, but the plan is to have poker night in a few weeks (sorry Ben). So keep your eyes peeled and your phone ready, because you may just get the call. And just so everybody knows, Dilby, you’re first on the list of invitees. Can you make it?
PS: I’m going to see if Ryan Stotts can make it. I haven’t seen him for a while and I’d like to know who he’s dating now.
PPS: Happy Birthday Glenn & Brenna!

Best Nicknames Ever
I can’t believe I didn’t know this before, but apparently “Champ” Bailey, the cornerback for the Denver Bronco’s, has a brother named “Boss” (who also plays for the Bronco’s). Can I become the next Bailey brother, “Chief” or “Sport” or how about “Hoss” – I’d be a dope “Hoss” ? I know I’m not gifted (well, athletically at least 
) enough to be a pro football player, but I could be a half-brother from the suburbs or something.
[Editors Note] So I was originally going to write about how the mother of “Champ” and “Boss” Bailey – both pro football players – was a freaking genius for naming her kids, “Champ” and “Boss” But being the diligent journalist that I am, I checked on Wikipedia to see if they had any other siblings with kick-ass names and as it turns out, these are just nicknames. At which point I said to myself, eff that.

Ugh: Food Labeling
<begin rant>
This kind of shit just makes me sick (not the I-just-drank-a-bunch-of-puss-covered-utter-rBST-laden-milk sick, more the I-can’t-believe-this-is-happening sick). Basically its a post about how the “agricultural company,” Monsanto, is trying to push through some state legislation so that dairies can’t label their food “hormone-free.” From the Consumerist post, the reason being “[b]ecause milk can’t be tested for the presence of growth hormone, dairies like Shatto’s couldn’t represent their products as hormone-free in Kansas, even if they had mountains of proof that their cows weren’t injected with growth hormone.”
I’m going to sound like an grumpy old man right here, but has the whole world gone to pot? Why shouldn’t dairies be allowed to label their milk as “hormone-free” or “rBST-free” if its true? What harm comes from that? If they have “mountains of proof” that their cows don’t have hormones or steroids, or whatever crap they inject into cows, why can’t they label it as such? And this is probably a bit naïveté on my part, but why is Monsanto allowed to try and get this passed?
I don’t get it.

I hate all of you
Okay.. not really. I just wanted to let all of you peeps that have text message me in the past few days/weeks, that the reason I didn’t reply is not because I hate you. For most of you, that’s not the case (you know who you are). The reason is because I can use all of 4 buttons on my phone. I can’t even hang up when I leave a voicemail. It took me two weeks to figure out what buttons to push to have the voicemail system hang up for me (luckily my “1″ button still works).
So yeah, I don’t hate (most of) you. So please don’t get mad. I’m hopefully getting a phone next week and then we’ll all be friends again (mostly).

Interweb Provider
So we’re moving in a few weeks and I was thinking about our “cursed internet provider who shall not be named” (CIPWSNBN). I’m completely sick of them and was thinking of changing over to AT&T DSL. So here is my question to you loyal readers (hello? anyone?) ( Read more )

Seriously folks, I must apologize for my lack of posts. I’d like to say that I’ve been totally busy with work and all that, but I really haven’t. I’ve just been in an odd mood and haven’t felt like posting. It’s nothing you said or did, it’s all me. Don’t be mad. Look! I’m posting now! Rejoice! Okay on to the nitty-gritty. I’ve got lots of stuff to get through so get to it.

The latest incarnation of Dackie focuses on cooking and the (hopefully) delicious food we make at home. Jackie is the real chef and I'm the real eater. A match made in heaven, really.
