IVF. The news has

continue to go well!  Seven eggs for you boys, go get ‘em!

UPDATE: Chris is undergoing the insertion as I typeGood luck, SIS!!

(10:40am)

UPDATE II: 4 fertilized eggs have been transferred!  More info in 2 weeks…

The guys in the dark green jerseys

Posted (seano) in Uncategorized on December-5-2005

I’d rather have the guys in the dark green jerseys versus the ones in black jerseys who showed up tonight… hell, I’d take the Handicapped Sisters of the Poor!
  The first half was simply unimaginable.  It was almost a
replay of the Kansas City game — only this time without half the
starting offense
— guys named “McNabb” and “Owens”.

I haven’t looked at the final score yet, but I have a funny feeling I know what happened!

After delivering his halftime speech
honoring Reggie White, a handful of Eagles trainers swarm on #12,
Randall Cunningham and whisper in his ear.  He listens for a few
moments, slowly nods his head, and begins a hasteful trot to the dark
green locker room.

In one of the most spectacular comebacks
in NFL history, the Eagles pull off a 38-35 miracle on a last-second
David Akers field goal.

I just know that’s what’s in the cards!
Going to check Philly.com for the final score now…

Just saw a reference today to the Barry Gibb Talk ShowThis is still one of my all-time favorite SNL sketches!  And one where Jimmy Fallon & Horatio Sanz don’t actually make each other giggle like idiots.

And no matter where I am in the studio-o-o-o.. I’m never more than

My computer is running so slow…

Posted (seano) in Uncategorized on December-1-2005
Everyone’s got spyware — present company included!  All it takes is one wrong click sometimes…

That’s why I’m listing the 3 antispyware programs you need to be running right now!  They’re free
and easy to download, install and use.  You should do full scans
after installing (and updating) each one.  Then schedule at least
weekly scans (Microsoft scans each night at 2am, by default).



  1. Microsoft Antispyware

    The slickest and easiest to use.  Runs in realtime to help protect against the bad guys.

  2. Ad-Aware

    The gold standard.  Hasn’t been updated in a little while, but still finds a lot of the nasty programs.

  3. Spybot Search & Destroy

    Kind of an odd interface, but is a fairly quick scanner and one you need in your toolbox.

Feed that 529!

Just wanted to holla back at all the
“sharks” on Party Poker and Bodog…  My firstborn appreciates all
you’re doing in your efforts to send him/her to college.  Keep watching that TV poker!  You could be the next (insert no-name player who made it big this year).  Snicker.

These guys are giving me the confidence to start preparing to go to the World Series of Poker 2006
(Consider this an early headsup, future sponsors!)  Don’t know if
I’ll receive enough support to participate in the Main Event (a $10,000
buyin that may have a top prize of $10 million next year, BTW!), but I plan on entering at least two of the lower-level $500-$1500 buyin events.

It’s OK if you’re pretty

Posted (seano) in Uncategorized on November-23-2005


Debra “Hot (for) Teacher” Lafave gets zero years in jail
for ‘lewd and lascivious behavior’ for seducing her teenage
student.  Her (ex-)husband was on Good Morning America, and was
pissed.  He said her lawyers argued “She’s too pretty to go to
jail”, and apparently the judge agreed — sentencing her to 3 years
house arrest and 7 years probation.


In other news, things are looking up for Pamela Turner:

Chicago Bean
Check out this very cool 360 degree panorama of Millenium Park in Chicago.  You’ll need Quicktime installed to view… it’s worth it!

Here’s a little movie I put together for our trip to Chicago this summer.
