An ISU victory this past Saturday. That would make us an UNDEFEATED 2-0 when playing on the Versus Channel! They should broadcast every game for us. Even the announcers said that the Cyclones seem to play better when on the Vs. network. Turnovers actually went in favor of the Cyclones, and we weren't killed with penalties for the first time in a while. My favorite moment, bringing in Austen Arnaud, the freshman QB and future of ISU football, who had a great day passing. Let's get him some more snaps against Colorado!!! Another plus is the 2nd win helps get the Cyclones off of the ESPN bottom 10 list. Rising to the top on that list? NOTRE DAME!!!
Vikings game was also fun to watch - 2 records set in that game.... you can tell your grandchildren that you saw the absolute longest play in NFL history. Nobody can go longer than 109.75 yards and 300 yards rushing is also hard to beat. For those interested, I did win my Fantasy Football matchup 122-47!! Last place is no longer reachable for me! I do think the award for ugliest uniforms goes to Pittsburgh for last night's crappy outfits. They won easily so maybe the opposition was distracted so bad they didn't play right.
Sarah arrives tomorrow evening! Just in time for the snow.... yes, we had snow flurries last night as I was leaving the RAC. Sad, but it's the truth - welcome to Minnesota in November!
Random links for you to enjoy today:
- Corn Maze that might take you more than 10 minutes to get through. More like 3 hours! Reminds me of the gigantic maze in The Shining.... Still something weird about a corn maze in California though!
- A typing test to gauge your speed with a basic minute long test. I scored 77 WPM on the "zebra" test. And if anyone was wondering, Mr. Fink scored 99 WPM (not surprisingly).
- A fun daily read... "Overheard in Minneapolis" (also links on this page to other major cities in the US). Interesting things overheard around town and documented for all to enjoy!
- And a fun game of baseball to keep you entertained if you're having a slow day... not that it ever happens
Haiku of the Day
Yes, Snow is Falling
Not much of a surprise though
It's Minnesota!!!
Entertainment of the Day - I watched the "other" part of Grindhouse but this was the Robert Rodriguez one, Planet Terror which got much more publicity than the Tarantino one. I honestly thought it sucked!! Was not very entertaining and I was glad when it was over. Very disappointed.
Weblink of the Day - I've been sitting on this one for a little while, but it's a cool picture of some coffee beans with a guy's head in there somewhere. Can you find it?????
