2007 Fantasy Football

SoCal Bloody OJs are back!!!!!!!!!!!!




My team is back for another year of murder and mayhem on the girdiron. Check out the league's progress on ESPN.com. My good buddy Rich came up with this year's league name which is oddly titled ... 'Hot Fresh Trouser Chili'. Not sure what that means, but here is the team homepage...

A great time in San Diego!





I had a great time during my parents' visit this August in San Diego. Mike and Patti sure had a great time and so did I. We saw a San Diego Padre game, got to Pacific Beach to see the surfers, visited the USS Midway, toured through the newly updated Hotel Del Coronado, and took in the views from the top of the Manchester Grand Hyatt.

Videos and pictures are available on my Picasa page. Click the slideshow to view the vids and pics. For highest quality, download the entire set but make sure you have enough disk space...

and here is a bonus slideshow from the Red Bull Air Race over San Diego Bay a couple weeks later. This folder has lots of video, pictures from the week, and images from the official website and fan websites.

Yacht inside a ?? Mega-Yacht

CHECK THIS OUT~!!!

I was biking on the Embaracdero in downtown San Diego this past April, when I came upon this sight. The striking part is that the yacht inside is a large Viking, probably 32 foot. I mean, a large boat in its own right. To see it actually moored INSIDE a larger boat was kinda cool. That's why I had to stop my bike ride and take a couple quick snaps.
