Some Randomness

Hokie Football starts this Saturday...1:30. They will beat up on this 1-AA foe (Northeastern), but in 13 months when the next 1-AA opponent rolls into Lane Stadium, that team (the mighty Tribe of William and Mary) will leave victorious!

Cletus is 13 weeks, 5 days old :-)

Looks like gas prices are coming down...

If you are a Skins fan, or not a Skins fan...and understand Danny Boy Snyder, these are hilarious!

Impregnito

Well, after having a ton of fun over the last 4+ years, Chrissy and I have decided to let someone else in on all the fun we are having.

Chrissy is pregnant! And she is due on March 2. We are terribly excited about this blessing in our lives.

We went and heard Cletus' (as in Cletus the Fetus) heartbeat on Tuesday for the very first time. The nurse found it right away, and it was beating strong! 160 beats per minute, which both the nurse and doctor said was excellent for 12.5 weeks.

We have decided to be surprised about the sex of the baby. My initial instinct is it will be a girl. Chrissy thinks it'll be a boy. What do you think?

Stay tuned for updates and maybe pictures.

Talladega Nights: The Ballad of Ricky Bobby

This may be good...from an article on yahoo.com...

Ferrell plays Ricky Bobby, a dimwit who grows up following the edict his absentee father once told him — "If you ain't first, you're last."
Ricky Bobby lives by the motto as he climbs his way from NASCAR crew member to champion driver, and parlays his success into newfound riches, a hot blonde wife and a pair of horrible children named Walker and Texas Ranger. He's such a star, Powerade has commissioned him to thank its sports drink during a lengthy grace before dinner each night.

But Jeff didn't want to participate...interesting take there...
Still, not everyone was comfortable with the idea. Although Dale Earnhardt Jr. has a cameo in the film and proudly walked the black-asphalt carpet at last week's Hollywood premiere, Jeff Gordon passed on participating in the movie.
For Gordon, the four-time series champion who runs a close second to Earnhardt in popularity, the industrywide inside jokes were a little too close to comfort for the driver and his sponsors.
"I think it prevented me from being a part of the movie," Gordon said. "We presented it to DuPont and our other sponsors talked about it, and although I think the movie is going to be hilarious — and I don't mind laughing at things within our sport — it wasn't the type of movie that I could have been part of.
"I would have liked to, but after seeing the script, there were some moments in there that I questioned because of the type of image I like to put out for myself and DuPont and our sponsors."
