Observations, rants, and musings by Joe Siegler.
Well, last night was the Pat Benatar concert in Ft. Worth. Going there, I was stressed out for two reasons. One, I didn’t know where exactly I was going, since I’d never actually been to Billy Bob’s before. Two, we were running late, and since we were on the backstage list to meet Pat, I […]
One of my wife’s bosses at work was going out of town for some training, and he has a 5 month old kitten. He didn’t know what he was oging to do with the cat, so we offered to keep him here. As I write this, he’s been here for about four hours, and he’s […]
One of the more annoying TV decisions in awhile comes to a head this Sunday when Fox airs the final new episode of Futurama. This show started off weak for me, but it got wickedly funny, and while it was frequently bizarre, it was almost always entertaining. It’s probably more funny than the Simpsons is […]
This weekend, my wife and I are NOT taking a step into the past, as we’re going to see Pat Benatar in Ft. Worth on Saturday night. We’re going to see a current modern musician perform. Not seeing an 80’s flashback, DAMMIT! I’ve always listened to Pat Benatar, and probably would have stopped listening after […]
No thank you. I want to keep #3 right where he belongs, in Texas. Is he overpaid? Of course he is. But he’s the best player in baseball, and I fail to see how that can be considered a liability like a lot of the national media is doing right now because he expressed a […]
Good news and bad news. One of my favorite restaurants is Chipotle. They have burritos to die for. Unfortunately, they’re not the greatest things for you. I’m on Weight Watchers and the points that the Chipotle Burrito takes up is about 75% of my entire food intake for the day. :eek: Still, it can be […]
The two latest CD’s I have picked up are Anthrax’s “We’re Coming for You All”, and Queensryche’s “Tribe”. I’ve been a big fan of both of these bands for some time. Queensryche is a band I’ve liked longer – as I’ve been listening to them since the mid 80’s. Anthrax not as long, and I […]
One of my two Tonkinese cats just had a birthday yesterday. Kira Nerys Siegler turned 3 yesterday. She was the first of our two Tonkinese cats, and is a wonderful cat. She’s a great lap cat, a cat who loves to climb up on you and sit on your chest if you’re in the right […]
Over the weekend, my brother and I attended the Austin Gaming Expo which took place in Round Rock, Texas. Most of it was related to classic gaming, with a big emphasis on the Atari 2600, but there was more modern stuff there (in fact, there were two seperate Halo tournaments going on). It was nice […]
I went to see Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines over the weekend. I, like most folks hold Terminator 2: Judgement Day up as one of the greatest action movies ever. That still holds up today, as I watched T2 the night before going to see T3. T2 is still great. I was surprised at […]
