He's no Michael Phelps but he should get a gold metal for having balls.

Hey buddy, cold enough for ya?

Let me be the first to say this to you today. I love being that guy...

I also like saying... "Thats what she said."

Snowbow?

Yesterday we had several snowbows. I'm not a weatherman so I have no idea how that works.

McBabie in the McOven

Well if you haven't heard the BIG news. Amy is pregnant with my baby.... This spring we will find out for sure when we will appear on Maury, but I think it's safe to say the baby is mine, and Amy's too.

The pic above was from the end of November @ 20 weeks. Amy was a little weirded out with how I got the camera in position but it was worth it.

Seriously, Amy has been doing great. She's only been a little tired, maybe I shouldn't have her shoveling snow, but I did promise her that when the baby comes the nanny will take over those chores.

Lucky for you I will be putting a lot of this kinda crap out there.. So hang on...

November 11: bumper sticker activism

To tell the world what they should be doing and what you think by plastering your car with bumper stickers to that effect.
Jim: That "Keep Tahoe Blue" sticker is really making me wonder how to keep Tahoe blue. Mike: Yeah, Berkeley is full of bumper sticker activism. Too bad the sticker's on a Ford Expedition, since keeping Tahoe blue involves reducing emissions.

Don't Mess with Texas

I think
Texas
was a Red State........

Obama Tax "Cut" Calculator

I found this Obama tax cut calaculator. It's put out by the Obama camp... I like the remarks if you put in $250K and up.. It doesn't say you pay more? Just you won't probably get a tax cut... Nothing about how much of an increase..

Farewell Favre

Farewell Favre.. Looks like Brett will not play in GB.. As a lifetime Packer fan I'm glad to see the organization moving forward and not allowing Brett to hold the Pack QB hostage...

I would love to see Brett come to the Viks and work his magic.. You know.. the 4qter interceptions..

That's a Latte Walk'n


This is a pretty cool little calorie calculator. It tells you how many calories you burn while walking your dog. Unfortunately, it also shows how hard you have to work just to burn of a large latte, 90 minutes!!!!!



So next time you think walking to the mail box is going to burn off the the Blatz.. Think again Wyman... Even if Blatz (Bacon, Lettuce, and Tomtoezzz)is the most nutritious beer...
