Leslie Nord's Random Thoughts on Friends, Family and Life

I never was much of a writer - more like a rambler that easily gets lost in a tangent. My blog lets me go out on those tangents any time I want to. So remember, life is like a roller coaster: sit down and hang on. Sometimes you'll want to scream, sometimes you'll puke, but give it a chance and you'll find it can be a lot of fun.

Bandwagon Texas Fan

January 5, 2006 by leslie Leave a Comment

When it’s not a Tennessee game, I’m just a fan of a good college football game. I tend to root for the underdog – I was pulling for Texas, not quite an underdog in this instance but everyone else was on the USC three-pete bandwagon. The game itself was good but the biased sportscasters Keith Jackson and Dan Fouts made me want to puke – could they have been any more obvious? What a contrast to the Orange Bowl – I was so engrossed with the announcers Mike Tirico and Kirk Herbstreit – they were excited, in to the game and NOT biased!

Vince Young played a great game – didn’t particularly like his “Heisman pose” picture – so thug looking. Then the comment by classless sore loser Matt Leinart “I still think we’re a better football team.” – well no, you lost, the better team one.

On an iPod update – I was given over 900 songs for my iPod – tons of early 70’s stuff – it’s an eclectic mix – sure won’t run out of music to listen to.

Adding to the daydream list (remember the Winning the Lottery post) – a house with a guest house – the reason are broad ranged – maybe a place for Megan to stay, more room for friends and family to visit. I’ve always felt awkward staying “in” someone else’s house. It got me thinking – wouldn’t it be nice to have a separated place for guests – kitchenette, bathroom, ect. Okay, call me weird.

Those of you who were betting that my knees would be the first "metal" replacements, you lost. I now have a bit of titanium in my cervical spine. I wonder if the doc will give me a pic of the post-op x-rays?

Those who know me, know to send lavender roses and daisies.
