Beware Staring Fish

I saw my cardiac specialist today. He said that everything sounded good and I should just stay cool, quite and calm. It has been over six weeks since I have been in the E.R. with a racing heart.
I am sure that the heat has been causing me problems.
I do have a test next Friday for a PFT repertory test.
At least it at 9:30 in the morning so I don’t have to dread the thing all day.
All in all I feel good.
I am thinking about ordering on of those scooters so I can go to the mall and zip around.
I am dreading Christmas. I don’t think I have the strength to set up the vampire Christmas tree. It is called that because it managers to get someone’s blood every time we unpack it.
It is slowly getting cooler here. It was just in the 90’s today instead of the 100+ as usably.
Hurry up winter.

I also got into a staring contest with one of the fish in the aquarium. The fish won.

Of Blogs And Men

I just tried Live Journal. It's OK if you want something that is easy to use. I have also tried the Yahoo journal called Yahoo360. There is also the AOL Journal. Both of these are easy to use.
I would like to recommend a neat little program called "ieSpell."
It is a spell check system that sits int he tool bar of Internet Explorer. I really like it.

I thought so.

Smackdown VS Raw 2006

From the press release
"WWE SmackDown! vs. RAW 2006 expands on THQ's popular multi-million unit-selling franchise with a number of key new features. The Buried Alive Casket match, two new wrestler attributes (Stamina and Hardcore), and a realistic momentum system all combine to turn the series away from its arcade roots and towards that of a simulation. Further additions to the game include a more robust online mode, improved character models and facial animations, a streamlined character creation mode, and more interactive backgrounds. Developed exclusively for the PlayStation 2, with USB link features to its PSP counterpart."

Well it sounds to me they are pairing down the best part of the game naely the CAWS system.
We shall see.

Home Again

We are home from San Antonio. It was almost a vacation except for the cause and the crappy heat.
I pulled something in my chest unpacking the car.
Other than that I'm OK.
The hotel we stayed at had only four rooms booked when we got there Wednesday afternoon but by Thursday morning they where filled to booked solid.
I met one couple that had been evacuating from Houston and they spent 26 hours on the road.
The other heart breaking story was the bus full of elderly people who oxygen bottles exploded after the buses brakes caught fire.
Hurricane season ends November 30.
I can't wait.

The Taker And The Legand Killer

Well if you didn't watched WWE Smackdown Friday you missed a great match between "The Legend Killer" and The Undertaker.
Part of the match was the plot device that Randy "The Legand Killer" Orton father "Cowboy" Bob Orton brought a rent a truck to ringside.
In the rent a truck was two coffins. "Cowboy" Bob rolled out one as a distraction to cause the Taker to lose that match. Halfway through the match The Undertaker opened the coffin see himself.
Himself being an obvious pre recording of Taker laying in the coffin. Taker was taken aback but only for a moment and went on to win the match and get a few good punches on "Cowboy" Bob as well.
Now I saw TWO coffins. So I guess will lead up to a I'll bury both of you match. Hopefully Taker will win that match and be the one that got away from "The Legend Killer."
Most of the rest of the show was forgettable except for Eddie Guerrero prize over acting. Eddie has always been a scene stealer. Eddie is not only talented in the ring but shines outside of it as well. If only my man "Glacier" could do the same. Out of the ring he sounded like Eddie Haskel of Leave It To Beaver fame.

Vultures

I have been watching to coverage of the post hurricane landscape. It looks like some sort of apocalyptic painting.
We have taken a lot of these poor refugees in to the lone star state.
Being Texans we can only treat these people as well as we hope they would treat us. It could have very easily been Corpus Christi that was flattened. We could have been the people suddenly finding ourselves homeless and jobless.
What angers me is the needless deaths. These people that where abandoned in the old folks home. The people that could not afford to leave and no transport out was supplied.
As far as I am concerned the people who operate that retirement home and the mayor and the governor are guilty of murder. They abandoned those people to die.
Those that willingly stayed behind played a game in which they where way over matched. They gambled and they lost.
Now we will watch the insurance companies nit pick their way out of much as possible.
And the scumbags of roofers and builders that will flood in like roaches to take as much money as possible.
I personally love to be able to visit that level of destruction on the snot nosed and smug reporters that get to home after bragging about having rode out the storm.
Lets see how cocky they are when their home is gone their neighborhood scooped off the face of the earth and find friends and loved ones killed.
I know one of these days one of these smart asses will be killed on camera. And justly so
