Less than one hour to go at work.. And in fantasy football news, I need a Tebow miracle to pull out a victory in my semifinal playoff game. Fortunately, he is my starting qb so I have a chance.
I need the Raiders to keep Stafford from scoring more than one touchdown. Then I just have to have Ray Rice have a typical game, and I should be good to go. :)
Good luck in your game!

I just asked Riley and he said you could have his jambalaya when you pry it from his cold dead hands.
Dude... I don't think you're getting any either. :/

Well Tebow did his part. I just need a defensive lineman score 18 points tomorrow night. Need a few sacks.
Hope Ray Rice has a big night for you tonight.

So, my mother's and my partner's mother's birthdays are the same day: the 21st (also Freehold's if memory serves). We were in the supermarket today and realized we needed to pick up birthday cards, so we picked them out at separate times while shopping. When we got home, we opened the grocery bag and found that they were the same. Out of all the birthday cards in the store, we picked the same one.
We're confident they won't be comparing cards, so it should be safe.

12 Days of Cajun Christmas
Day 1: Dear Boudreaux, Tanks for de bird in de Pear tree. I fix it las' night with dirty rice. I doan tink de pear tree.will grow in de swamp, so I swap it for a Satsuma.
Day 2: Dear Boudreaux, You letter say you sent two turtle doves, but all I got was two scrawny pigeons. Anyway, I mixed dem with andouille an made some gumbo out of dem.
Day 3: Dear Boudreaux, Why doan you sent some crawfish? I'm tired of eating dem darn birds. I gave two of dose prissy French chickens to Marie Trahan over at Grans Bayou an fed the tird one to my dog Phideaux. Marie needed some sparing partners for her fighting rooster.
Day 4: Dear Boudreaux, Mon Dieux! I tol you no more friggin birds. Deez four, what you call dem "calling birds" were so noisy you could hear dem all de way to Napoleonville. I used dere necks for my crab traps, an fed de rest of dem to de gators.
Day 5: Dear Boudreaux, You finally sen' somethin useful. I like dem golden rings, me. I hocked dem at da pawn shop in Thibodeaux and got enuf money to fix da shaft on my shrimp boat an buy a round for da boys at de Raisin' Cane Lounge. Merci Beaucoup!
Day 6: Dear Boudreaux, Couchon! Back to da birds, you coonass turkey! Poor egg suckin' Phideaux is scared to death at dem six gaeases. He tried to eat dems eggs and dey peck de heck out ah his snout. Dey good at eating cockroaches, though. I may stuff one of dem wit erster dressing on Christmas day.
Day 7: Dear Boudreaux, I'm gonna wring your fool neck next time I see you. Thibeau, da mailman, is ready to kill ya. The merde from all dem birds is stinkin' up his mailboat. He afraid someone will slip on dat stuff and sue him good. I let those seven swans loose to swim on de bayou and some duck hunters from Mississippi blasted dem out of de water. Talk to you tomorrow.
Day 8: Dear Boudreaux, poor ole Thibeau, he had to make tree trips on his mailboat to deliver dem 8 maids a milkin and their cows. One of dem cows got spooked by da alligators and almost tipped over da boat. I doan like dem shiftless maids, me no. I tolt dem to get to work guttin fish and sweepinq the shack but dey say it wasn't in dair contract. Dey probably think dey too good ta skin nutrias I caught las night.
Day 9: Dear Boudreaux, What you trying to do huh? Thibeau had to borrow the Lutcher ferry to carry dem jumpin twits you call Lords-a-Leaping across the bayou. As soon as dey gots here dey wanted a tea break with crumpets. I doan know what dat means but I says, Well La Di Da. You get Chicory coffee or nuttin. Mon Dieu, Emile. What I'm gonna feed all dese bozos? Dey too snooty for fried nutria, and de cows done eat my turnip greens.
Day 10: Dear Boudreaux, You got to be outs you mind! If de mailman don't kill you, I will fo sure. Today he deliver 10 half nikid floozies from Bourbon Street. Dey said dey be Ladies Dancin but dey doan act like ladies in front of dose Limey twits. Dey almos left after one of dem got bit by a water moccasin over by da out-house. I had to butcher 2 cows to feed toute le monde an had to get toilet paper. The Sears catalog wasn't good enuf fer dose hoity toity Lords' royal behin.
Day 11: Dear Boudreaux, where y'at? Cheerio an pip pip. Your 11 pipers piping arrives today from the House of Blues, second lining as dey got off de boat. We fixed snuffed goose and beef jambalaya, finished da whiskey and we having a fais-do-do. Da new mailman he drink a bottle of Jack Daniel an he having a good time yeah dancing with de floozies. Thibeau he jump off de Sunshine Bridge yesterday, screaming your name. If you get a mysterious, ticking package in de mail, doan open it.
Day 12: Dear Boudreaux, I sorry to tell ya but I not your true love anymore, no. After da fais-do-do, I spent de night with Jacque, de head piper. We decide to open a restaurant and gentleman's club on de bayou. The floozies, pardon me, Ladies dancing can make $20 for a table dance, and de Lords can be waiters an valet park de boats. Since de maids doan have no more cows ta milk, I trained dem ta set my crab traps, watch my trotlines, an run my shrimping business. We will probably gross a million clams nex year.

and in case you're curious:
Sport-Women of the year: Magdalena Neuner, Biathlon superstar (yes, Biathlon is a very,VERY big thing in germany)
Sport-Team of the Year: Borussia Dortmund (soccer of course)

2) Spanky evidently doesn't like me here, calling me a troll and such.
3) Tebow lost and ESPN doesn't know what to do with itself.
4) LPM was.....THINKING!!!! (I saw the smoke in Michigan)
I was glad the Lions won.

His line's been giving him pretty good protection this year.
I just think 2 fumbles + 1 facemask that turned a 3 and out for Brady into another 3 downs = Patriots win......
can't win them all; just ask Green Bay ;)
I didn't see the Green Bay game, but I'm guessing they were saving up their best guys for the playoffs(?)

Sport-Women of the year: Magdalena Neuner, Biathlon superstar (yes, Biathlon is a very,VERY big thing in germany)
Sport-Team of the Year: Borussia Dortmund (soccer of course)
So from this I take that A) Dirk plays Basketball. I was unaware that this was a popular sport in Europe. Which is normal American lack of knowledge of the outside world. B) Also was that Biathlon was big anywhere, let alone very, Very big in Germany. C) I already knew Soccer was big in Germany though. It seems be most places, except here where it is mainly a game played by children whose parents drive them to games in minivans, giving rise in the 90's to the moniker the minivan mom.

You on break, prof? How are the kiddos this semester? Did they shape up any after the riot act?
Yep! Long time no talk!
Oh, I'm trying to be positive. You know I was teaching the burros this semester, in hopes that some might transform into proper stallions or mares. Maybe a few did, or maybe they just learned to hustle a little better. Others...well, good luck to them. Who knows what next semester will be like. We're trying some desperate strategies to up enrollment, but I figure they are more desperate than informed, and it will probably be another sparse semester. (I'm betting, very sparse, like one class.)How are you? I hope very busy.
