Where does the time go

Ok, lets catch up on some things as its been over a month since my last post, which is sad.  My last post was about Top Chef: LV so we’ll start there.

Since the last post, we’ve added two more people to our Pick ‘Em List, Steve and Katie; both of which didn’t go with the clear favorite (Beardie).  We’ve also had a few people lose a choice or two.  The competition is finally almost clear of all the unTop Chef chefs and it will start to get a little interesting here on out.  How long can Robin really keep Carla-ing?

  • Brandon:  Kevin Gillespie, Michael Voltaggio and Jen Carroll
  • Kim:  Kevin Gillespie, Michael Voltaggio and Jen Carroll
  • Bob:  Kevin Gillespie, Michael Isabella and Jen Carroll
  • Kate:  Kevin Gillespie, Ash Fulk, Mattin Noblia
  • Jen:  Kevin Gillespie, Eli Kirschstein and Jen Carroll
  • Steve:  Jen Carroll, Bryan Voltaggio, Ron Duprat
  • Katie:  Jen Carroll, Bryan Voltaggio, Michael Voltaggio
My money is still on Beardie

What else is going on besides TC: LV?  Lets see, bowling has started.  I am only torturing myself this year with one league instead of 2, which appears to be working as I’m about ten pins over my average for last season.  Of course, its only been six weeks or so and I’m already ready to be done with it, only 26 more weeks.

V0lleyball is over for the year, thank god.  We decided to hang it up for the year and not play the fall league after going an abysmal 1 and 29 during the summer session.  That’s awful.

The Cardinals decided not to show up for the playoffs.  The Blues are back and playing decently, if we could only stave off the injuries, we’d have a shot at a good season.

We’re coming up on that time of the year again when the best rock show of all time returns to the Pageant.  If anybody would like to join us for El Monstero, we’ll be going on the 19th this year.  General admission again, which means we’ll be lining up by noon, maybe earlier this year.

Farmaid was fun and marked the 3rd time in as many years that I was able to see Dave twice during the summer.  This time it was just Dave and Tim and they had an amazing set.

This past weekend, Sarah and I drove to Columbia for the Mizzou homecoming.  No we didn’t go to the game, just to tailgate.  We started around 10am and wrapped it shortly after 7pm.  There was plenty of food, booze, and beer pong and we a pretty good time.  I got to meet a lot of Sarah’s Phi Mu sisters and by the end of the day, I was pretty chicked out.  Made it home in time to catch the end of Bob’s Testicle Festival and recharged my man batteries, as Sarah likes to say.

Ok well thats a start.  I’ll see about updating this more.  I lead a busy life these days.  At least I’m not the most outdated blogger of the group and my posts dont just consist of my twitter updates.

Top Chef: Las Vegas

Yeah I know, I don’t ever post anything anymore.  I’m sorry.  Life is busy.  Get over it.  However, now that Top Chef has returned, we have something to talk about.  As we did with last season, we will follow the cheftestants through the contest.  Now that all the slackers have watched the first episdoe and reported their top 3 choices for Top Chef, I present to you, the Season 6 Cheftestants.

Jen Eliminated Week 1

Jen Eliminated Week 1

And your winners are:

  • Brandon:  Kevin Gillespie, Michael Voltaggio and Jen Carroll
  • Kim: Kevin Gillespie, Michael Voltaggio and Jen Carroll
  • Bob: Kevin Gillespie, Michael Isabella and Jen Carroll
  • Kate: Kevin Gillespie, Ash Fulk, Mattin Noblia
  • Jen: Kevin Gillespie, Eli Kirschstein and Jen Carroll

Obviously there are some clear favorites and some wild cards (Ash).  Isabella is my dark horse that may suprise us all if he stops coasting on Michael V’s steam.  There are clearly a few chefs who are way behind some of the talented chefs, Jen Z being one of those who lag behind as she was eliminated in week one.  Normally, I would list who I think the week chefs are but some get eliminated in the following weeks, which haven’t seen by all yet.  I do think though that the cast this season is light years above season 5’s cast.  Carla, with her weird eyes and uncanny ability to coast to the end.

My WTF issue today…

Julio Castillo was sentence to 30 days in jail for throwing a baseball into a minor league ball game crowd and injuring a fan.

Dante Stallworth was sentenced to 30 days in jail but only served 24 days for KILLING someone in a drunk driving accident.

WTF?!?  Seriously, how does our legal system allow this to happen?  24 days for taking someone’s life?  24 fucking days.  24 days compared to the two years that Vick served for dogfighting/killing.  While both crimes are disgusting, the measure of punishment seems a bit off.  WTF.
