Football season is finally here

August 11, 2004 at 09:37 AM

It's been a long time since the Horns played their last game at the beginning of January, and it ended on a sour note with a loss to Washington State in the Holiday Bowl. So it's great to finally have a new season underway. The first practice of the season was yesterday evening and there's tons of information all over the place about it. The Statesman has news but not near as in-depth or... Continue reading

Good news, bad news for Chris Simms

August 11, 2004 at 08:48 AM

First the bad news... Chris and Danielle Puleo were married last Sunday. Danielle and Chris went to high school together in NJ. He is currently a quarterback with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and she works at Fazoli's. Nice job Chris. (Okay, okay. She was the manager of her father's two NYC restaurants, which I'm pretty sure is a much bigger deal.) Congrats Chris. And for the good news... There is some buzz about second-year veteran...

I must have this TV

August 10, 2004 at 03:31 PM

For the longest time I've been wanting a nice, moderately large LCD rear project HDTV. I admired the Sony Grand Wega but lately the more I read/shop the more I've been looking at DLP sets. Well me and Christina were at Fry's Saturday trying to replace a laptop power cable the damn dog chewed through and we stumbled upon the Samsung HL-P5085W. Even Christina was awed, and she's not nearly as easily aroused by... Continue reading

Short Ryan Perrilloux article

August 05, 2004 at 11:46 AM

Orangebloods.com has a short article on Texas commit Ryan Perrilloux that's viewable without a subscription. Pretty much says he's still very firm in his commitment to UT and that LSU was going to continue to recruit him. Not too much new, but everytime he reiterates his commit it makes me feel a little more confident.... Continue reading

I've already mentioned before that the Motorola MPx is going to someday be my new best friend, and now more information/images are coming to light. Mobinaute has the world's longest review accompanied by hundreds of pictures. Unfortunately the whole damn thing is in French, so I've got no freaking idea what it says. Who cares, it sure looks pretty.... Continue reading
