This is what was going through my head as I was leaving the Ralph around 4:30PM today


Kickoff!








After the game, these drunk ass people responded to the challenge of "Do the Hill!!!"

Now the NFL has a similar introduction like a Monday Night wrasslin' show





















My friend from D.C. Says hot dog vendors down there are not this hot by any stretch of the imagination.







The saddest part of the game was not that they lost, but the 1st and only TD of the game was scored on the Very First possession for either team, with SF going down to score after getting the ball after the coin toss. Seriously, if I could get my money back I would. Playoffs??? Ha, Ha, Ha!

Wow, currently I have about 40 more views to go until I hit 100,000 views. I'd never thought I'd ever get any where near that or anyone would find my blog interesting enough to read though the content. It's not like I'm a chick blogging about my love life, so there's pretty much zero readership for the "juicy" content reasons. But some how or another people come across thing thing for whatever reasons and for that I'm 100K reasons grateful.

The only thing that I could come up with that would draw Google hits would be my financial/trading ranting and raving.

So with 100K views in 1007 days of this (e:strip) blog that's about 99.3 views per day. Not bad where I come from I must say. For my livejournal I may get that a quarter and not in a day, that's for sure. It just goes to show what great work (e:paul) does with this site.

Tonight (e:Heidi) and I stopped by the Wine bar @ the corner of Virginia & Main. We had a pretty good time, althought the place cleared out at about 1:30am. Thanks to (e:jbeatty) for bringing it to our attention with the initial review & (e:mike) for burning the image into our minds html of what the outside of the place looked like!!! .

I have to admit just from my eyeballing the list, it does have a better selection of wine as opposed to Allen St Hardware. The feature that the guy behind the bar informed us about made me make a note in my future calender. On Sunday every glass is 50% off! Even though (e:jbeatty) initially like the concept that they did NOT have a TV, if I'm going to stop by on a Sunday afternoon, personally I would need a TV to keep me updated on the games. Especially since the time I may actually fit it in it most likely the NFL will be in the middle of playoff season.

This is such a weird feeling. I'm watching this show on some channel called TruTV on Direct TV 246., or at least that's where i saw it. It's freaking "so there" on what actually happens.

The scary part is that I did go to one Rehab Sunday during the summer in August. Now I just hope that I don't show up on some episode ;-/

It's actually good to see a nice bounce. Even though the Auto Bailout was a bit of a confusing pathetic exercise in money grubbing, Obama got the ball moving his his treasury appointment on Friday & the more money out of thing air coming from the "Bailout Funds" going towards Citigroup.

The breakout of the Long term Support was a "Fakeout" for the time being. Just for future reference if we break though and close for a long time below 7,591, then it's lights out Not the 7,842 which was the low from the "Asian Financial Crisis" in 1998.

All I can say is that I will be glad to take a break from Armageddon for a while. Although I have to stress "Happy Days are not Here Again"


On another note, I'm happy that U.B. has clinched their first bowl game in 50 years! I'd never thought I'd see the day that U.B. was playing in a Bowl Game. Plus, they're the most successful sporting team in the city if you really want to get technical about it.
