Save the Peeps!!!!

Welcome back Drew!!! My cousin is home for a couple of weeks from Iraq and we're all glad he's back in the US. Unfortunately he goes back but hopefully this is his final stint over there. I admire him for volunteering to go back after already doing a tour in Bosnia, and already was in Iraq for a full shift. This is second trip to Iraq. While I think he's nuts, I admire him for doing so. I'm just jealous how fit he is every time I see him when he comes back. I'm too fat to be in the Army. I'd be good for motivational purposes though just like I am around here. I wonder how many Army guys (or gals) can eat 100 peeps while folks all over the world are watching him!!!

Speaking of Peep Cam and Easter on the way - how many people remember this?????

That's all that is left of the infamous Peeps Cam that broadcast me on the internal IBM web for a day. As you can see, I finished but the statistics of how many people watched me were ridiculous. This is just a snap shot, but perhaps someday I can do another one but this time do it worldwide!!! And with The Just Born Company sponsoring me! We could all get free shirts and FREE PEEPS!!!!! And for those that are wondering, yes - Britney is still on the IBM Rochester Property. She was more popular that day than I was! With the IBM lawyers too! ahhhh... memories....

I was finally able to see the Detroit Red Wings at their best last night as OLN (Only Lame stuff Network) actually had the Red Wings at St. Louis. Detroit looked ready for the playoffs as they won 4-1. Legace looks awesome and I'm hoping to be able to see all of their playoff games this year. Stanley Cup playoffs - nothing like it in the world!!

Any predictions for American Idol tonight? I'm guessing Bucky is gone but who knows. I'm also guessing Paula will be in just as rare of form as usual tonight.

I'm donating plasma tomorrow morning so the Blog might be a little late. Depends if I can get it all typed up tonight or not. Plus I'm still singing at church tomorrow night for anyone that's interested. I will try to get some video of it. I think I can get a 4 minute song off of one of my digital cameras.

Song of the Day - I found Tommy Roe's Hooray For Hazel yesterday and thought that was pretty funny till I listened closely to the lyrics....

Hazel's been in love with many a guy
She tells them that she loves 'em and then says goodbye
Hooray for Hazel, I'm now on her list
I'm just another fool that couldn't resist

Maybe not.... I just like the HOORAY FOR HAZEL part.

Video of the Day - Thanks to my friend Shary, we have a bunch of classic Alfred Hitchcock movies. Hazel and I watched The Man Who Knew Too Much which was slow at points, but typical Hitchcock. It's wonderfully done for 1956 (we watched the color version with James Stewart - who I don't really enjoy as an actor... the way he talks annoys me). We started Vertigo which is much more suspenseful and I should finish sometime. Any other recommendations of favorite Hitchcock movies???

Webpage of the Day - This is worth a quick laugh - mainly for the old school NES fans! But it's a different version - read the instructions first:) The theme music is the best part!! I need that for my ringer on my cell phone!
