Let’s Tailgate? Anytime.
Let’s Tailgate in Evanston will be my number one Northwestern speciality merchandise shop moving forward. Again, another Evanston shop impresses me with their customer service. As you know, it’s the start of the football season. So I decided to get a NU Wildcat flag and pole for the front of my SouthCentral home. My wife did not approve, but I […]

Still not sure what I will tweet about, but my first few tweets were aimed at getting Comcast’s attention. A few big branches fell on their line and it is still down in […]
Christmas Lights

Sled Riding
Took the kid sled riding for the first time yesterday. Good times.
South Central Holiday Cheer
Our fine neighbors at the end of the cul de sac threw one heck of a holiday party Saturday night. I enjoy getting into the Christmas spirit, and it’s parties like that which help to get me get there. I won’t go into details, but what started out as a party with Swedish meatballs and pleasant conversation, ended with the […]
