Drove to Galveston Island to spend a few days cooling off at the beach. The storm has created a lot of waves which is fun! The weather is really nice and I ate some good Mexican food tonight. Also there was a man bitten by a shark (he's ok, just had to get 60 stitches) about 100 yards from where we were swimming. The thing that sucks is that he was supposed to try out for the Cincinnati (sp?) Reds tomorrow. Too bad. Man Bitten By Shark In Galveston - Houston News Story - KPRC Houston

Very cool Nate!

Haha.

My condolences, Mike.

Greg, you are going to have to start eating 10 double bacon cheeseburgers a day before you can be Norm.

Damn Al, you will soon need to get your own bar to have a place to keep it all!

Damn, sorry to hear about all the heat in the NE. Hope you guys have some air conditioned buildings to stay in. Steve, that doesn't sound fun at all: stay hydrated!

Very cool. I bet this could help you out. http://www.whisky-distilleries.info/Laphroaig_EN.shtml

That really sucks Steve. Good thing you are good friends with Mr. AKG.

I was recently in the same situation. I like the Apple case but couldn't find one in stock. I almost bought a temporary case while waiting for the Apple one. I decided it was better to just pay the extra $10 and get the Apple case from ebay.

Ate at Five Guys Burgers and Fries for the first time - yum! I didn't know we had one until a few days ago. Made hotel reservations for two nights at the beach for later this week and did some "beach shopping" (cheap sunglasses, flip flops, sunscreen, etc.).

Happy Birthday Birgir!! Hope you enjoy many Viking-like activities.

Happy 50th Birthday Mike!!!!! Have a great one.

Quite addictive, just watched the first two episodes of the second season. It's a good thing I'm back to work tomorrow.

Just finished the first season of Dexter on Netflix streaming.

Looks fun Mike, JP, and Vicki! Watched some soccer (the Germany game was fun - too bad Mueller will miss the next game because of the bad call), went to the gym and did some wine and grocery shopping. Pretty good day overall.

Oh yeah, Team Chili Chese Fritos!

The last time I had the Harvest I liked it a lot better. Not sure what was going on this time. Perhaps it didn't pair well with the ultra fine quality Chili Cheese Fritos.

Good luck with the beer and gin tasting Greg. I guess you have moved on past Pilsners.

Gave in and bought an "authentic" Apple ipad case off of ebay (only about $10 more than the Apple online store when you factor in tax) - I really should have ordered the case with my ipad pre-order.

Congrat Ric!

Watched Brazil lose!
