cant believe i got the stomach flu this weekend, you know the kind where you throw up three or four times. it was the worst, and i havent had a painful sickness like this in a while. got to miss two days of work, which was some kind of consoloation. better now, and thankful that it has passed.

not really much of a hockey fan, but i have been caught up in it for the olympics.  i guess on paper canada should whip the usa, but they said the same thing for the first game as well. great way to finish off the olympics, and it should be a classic. looking forward to watching the closing ceremonies as well.

can not believe the usa hockey team, very excicting for sure. i was bummed to miss the canada game, i thought the game was on three hours later than it really was, and ended up missing it.  i am pretty sure they beat the swiss and have a shot at a medal, and it reminds me of the 80 team. anyway, looking forward to watching a few games and seeing if they can get the gold.

i just learned about the new windows phone today, they are calling it the windows phone 7 series, kind of an odd name and i keep wanting to call it the windows 7 phone.  anyway, they claim this phone is THE smart phone of the future, and is going to completely slay the iPhone.  now that wold be someting, i dont really know much about it, but if it does anything near what they say it can do it will be amazing.  thats all for today!

i am sad because a close family we know had the dad die suddenly, leaving a wife and two daughters behind.  he didnt feel well thursday, went to the icu on friday, and died on sunday morning, with the doctors not knowing what happened.  they think he has internal bleeding and they couldnt stop it, anyway a really sad situation for the girls who are late teens, hard to understand situations like these.

Been getting into american idol this season, as this is the last year we will see simon cowell, and he seems a little more gentle this time than in past years. Maybe he knows it is his last so he wants to leave on a good impression. I like ellen degenerest, she ads some humor to the show, and she has some good insights on the singing. Seems like this year is better than ever, i just can’t believe there are ordinary people out there that are this talented just waiting for their chance to be discovered.

crazy, crazy, crazy, I just cant believe that guy flew his plane into that building, leaves a note ranting about the ex, the irs, and feds. it looks like he was the only person hurt, and fortunatley nobody else was injured unless i hear it wrong on the news, what a messed up sitation

cant believe what i was reading today when BO is codoning two more nuke power plant to be built, i think this a good idea as many european countries us nuclear power, and they have shown how they can do it safely.  i think BO is right in doing this, as our energy crisis is far from over, and nuclear power has a pretty good track record in responsible countries that use it, imo.

Been watching some of the winter Olympics, I always look forward to it when it comes on every four years. I am totally shocked that that guy died during his luge run, seems like they didn’t really plan for safety all that well if they guy can fly off the course and hit a steel pole, a really sad tragedy for him and his family.  Can’t wait to watch the downhill ski finals, and the ski jumping, those are my favorite events.
