Rock the...

Casbeers! Not quite the Casbahh, but it is the name of the joint I ate lunch at today. It was a free lunch so I couldn't complain too much, and they went there knowing full well that the rowdy "coaches" were going to be there. Let me tell you something there were there in full force, I figured I would see a bunch of old, overweight men, with gray balding heads talking about high school football from the past week.

This was not the case however, they were loud and obnoxious with the most irritating laughs I ever heard. Charlie (head of the IT department) made fun of their laughs by making a half assed pirate laugh, strangely it was pretty close to the mark only a little lower on volume. The old men made it difficult for anyone else in there to hold a conversation and the entire restaurant was about to break into song and rejoice when they left. So word to the wise...avoid Casbeers on Tuesdays at lunchtime or you will suffer the wrath of the "coach posse" as I did today.

Oh, and get this - my flight back to town was delayed about 25 minutes yesterday. Reliable Southwest Airlines let me down as the ones who pride themselves as being on time as much as possible. They even go to such lengths as to avoid the busier airports to maintain this record; IE L.A., Chicago, New York (JKF or LaGuardia). Then my streak of seeing people from high school continued, this chica Natalie B. was on the flight. As I was boarding the plane I saw her, and I recognized her (or I thought I did so of course I did a double take). She saw me, but I don’t know if she recognized me, but she caught me looking at her. I didn't say anything to her, I was more interested in getting a seat on the crowded plane and keeping the other passengers behind me calm by not holding up the show any longer than absolutely necessary.

Luckily for me I had my brand new MP3 player in my pocket, I went with the Samsung Yepp 256 Mb. It has worked like a champ thus far and even passed the gym test today. So far I am pleased with the purchase. It isn't an iPod, but like I said I was interested in something with flash memory, not hard disk, and compact. So say "yepp" to Samsung's Yepp!

Ciao!
