Who put a lake in the middle of the Mohavi

I apologize for the interuption of the Browns/Indians blog for the following rant:

1. Last night I was running late at work and wanted to place a wager on the Eagles. I called Eric, but he was at the airport. I called Lee and he was driving, so I was a little pissed I couldn't get my bet in. Lee asked who I liked and I told him the Eagles were a layup. He started to laugh since he also thought that the Eagles were a layup and its best that I didn't get the bet in. Well as you all know, the Eagles lost and I saved some money thanks to Lee. From here on out my wagering protocol will involve a quick call to Lee on Saturdays to see who he likes and then go the opposite.

2. I'm not usually the type of person to make this statement, but it is odd that Godell doesn't suspend a white coach for cheating and blatantly ignoring his orders to stop video taping, but yet he suspends the black players like Vick, Pacman, and Tank. If Jesse Jackson comes in and says that this is a racial thing, how can you say it is not? Keep up the bad work Godell.

3. Was at Lake Havesau this weekend with Carol and her friends. Excellent time. When I told my mom I was heading out there, her first words were "Wasn't that where they film Girls Gone Wild?" Umm..yes it is mom, but how the hell do you know this? Some highlights from the trip:
  • One of Carol's friends made an excellent comment that was dead on about the people at the bars and the lake. "This is where fat men come to get laid." It was so bad that I think I was one of the skinnier people at the lake.
  • Fucking HOT!!! Why was I surprised that it was 105 degrees?
  • We played Drinking Jenga. Wow, I missed that game. It was pretty funny that out of the 6 of us that were playing, only myself and one other guy knew how to properly complete a "Waterfall". Its not a good waterfall unless the last couple of guys are bitching and complaining that they had to drink too much.
  • Had to pay an extra $110 for a new engine prop since we anchored the boat in a sandbar by using the engine. This is what happens when everyone is on their 11th-12th beer.
  • Its funny hanging out with a bunch of Charger fans. Their hatred for the Pats is real and too bad its only one sided. Is there anything worse that having a one sided rivalry because the other team is too good or they just don't car. It used to happen to the Terps and the NC schools until we became decent. And they also hate Norv. They all called that they would get killed against the Pats because Norv wouldn't have the team ready.
  • Once again, is there anything better than a late morning/early afternoon buzz? My body is still trying to recover from being drunk on Friday night, all day Saturday, and at 10:00am on Sunday.
  • Made a terrible decision on the way home from the lake on Sunday. Carol and I saw a sign for Laughlin (Nevada town just a little smaller than Reno that has some nice casinos), but it didn't have any mileage. Carol and I were up for some gambling, but I was worried that it would of been too far. Check the distance this morning and it was only 20 miles off the highway. FUCK! Would of made it a perfect weekend.
  • Never let two women plan meeting places for road trips. On the way back I had to drop Carol off to get her car down in San Diego. Now why would they do this as I had to pass the house on the way down to get her car. Didn't either of the two women figure that this would be an issue on Sunday? I guess not. Nothing like adding on an additional 2 hours and 120 miles to the car.
