That’s It.
I can’t take it any more. Purdue Football has done nothing since “The Fumble” in 2004 but make me angry and disappointed.
I’m done. I’m not watching another game this year. I just can’t bear it when Notre Dame’s pathetic offense nearly doubles their average yardage and scoring totals against what was supposed to be an “improved” Purdue defense. How did we let both QB Jesus Clausen and RB Armando Allen have career days against us? Oh, I know how… We didn’t blitz all day long.
Purdue will be lucky to win 3 more games this year, and I highly doubt they’ll make a bowl at all. If they somehow make it to the Rose Bowl, someone let me know. Otherwise, I just can’t bear to watch.

We’re Watching Some Football!
So, Purdue lost another heart-breaker today to the Oregon Ducks. But hey, when you have a kid like this, it’s tough to be too upset.
Wyatt won’t remember the loss, I’m sure. And by the time he’s speaking, he’s going to be singing “Hail Purdue”!

Voting — Americans Do It Like We Eat
Over here, a YouTube clip of Craig Ferguson discusses the election. Most of his rant is spot-on (and hilarious), but he talks about American’s “duty” to vote. He goes a bit off line when he says that our American Democracy is about:
free people making free choices…
…in this case, to choose which candidate will make us less free, and how.
Americans vote like we eat. I don’t think freedom’s on that menu. It’s like going into Cracker Barrel trying to find health food, and having a choice between the country breakfast with ham, eggs, hash browns, or the flapjacks and bacon, smothered in syrup. One may be marginally better for you than the other, but neither are good*. They may both make you feel good for a short time, but the long-term effects are pretty well negative.

Question Of The Day
I know I’m not the first person to ask this, but it just struck me…
Did anyone on the TV sitcom Cheers have a Boston accent?

Damn Paparazzi!
They just won’t leave me alone!
For more pictures from August and Wyatt’s first birthday, see here…
Just don’t let him grow up to be a Trojan fan. UCLA is a fine choice for a local favorite.

Well, at least Wyatt was cheering with daddy and dad will remember that.
