Great Turkey Day!

Awesome day yesterday! Everything went off without a hitch! After a wonderful dinner, we watched a marathon of The Waltons. Never realized what a good show that is. Nephews, niece, and their parental units came later, and the beautiful insanity began. Loved yesterday! Amazing!

Happy Thanksgiving!

Happy Thanksgiving to all! Don't forget to show appreciation for all that you have, surround yourself with loved ones, and eat till you puke!

"Light The Corners Of My Mind..."

Right On The Money!

"Well, obviously, WWE creative is more worried about ratings then the integrity of their storylines. They seem to be working on a 'catch as catch can' basis for their writing, and I wouldn't expect it to stop until they start gearing up for 'Mania."

That was Tim's response to my observation that WWE doesn't allow feuds to build long enough for fans to get emotionally invested. So astute and on point. While I can't ever see going back to the days where rivalries lasted a year or more, there's got to be a happy/medium somewhere. I think business would improve all around if those in charge would start thinking long-term.

AWESOME!!!

That's right, you're looking at the face of the new WWE champion! In what I consider an absolutely brilliant move, The Miz cashed in his title shot, and took full advantage of a vulnerable Randy Orton. While I question the logic of it happening on Raw, instead of at Survivor Series the night before, I couldn't be happier. This title win proves that hard work and dedication are rewarded. Don't know how long it will last, but am going to enjoy every second!

The One And Only...

Found this while looking through my photo albums earlier. Pugsley was such a good dog. Would love to get another someday, but he'll always be the best.

Good Day!

I've got so much accomplished today! New parking permit, finally had a new key made, groomed cat, a gift I ordered arrived in perfect condition, and have a possible lead on the rest of the Evita's I need! Feels so good to get things done!

One Of The Best Of 2010!

I went into Survivor Series not expecting much. Surprisingly, it was one of the best PPV's of the year. Loved that the majority of the matches finished clean. Ziggler vs. Kaval took the spotlight for me. Was a great back-and-forth athletic contest. Hope this feud continues to build. DiBiase vs. Bryan was a very close second. I'm glad that junior stepped up his game, and showed that he can hang with superior talent. Not going to waste space on Cena, except to say that I wish the retirement angle was a shoot. Tim and I agree that it was extremely disrespectful. Can't believe there were actually people buying into that shit. Anyway, I definitely recommend catching the replay if you're even remotely interested. Was an awesome way to spend three hours.

We kept score, and, as you can see, Tim got schooled. ;)

Humiliated!

Had to have a bath, because he was smelling quite gross. He didn't take too kindly to the paparazzi chasing him with a camera. As humiliating as it was, it sure did make for a great picture.

Dixie...

My cousin's dog. For those wondering, she's named after an All My Children character. :)

Royal Rumble!

Tim and I are going to the Royal Rumble, baby! I can't believe it! Have always wanted to see a pay-per-view live with my best friend, and it's actually going to happen. Amazing! Can't wait till January 30th!

2011!

Just got an email from Gabe Sapolsky! How exciting! Was a huge fan of his booking in Ring Of Honor, and am an even bigger fan of it in Dragon Gate USA. Anyway, he wrote me to say that he hopes DGUSA will return to this area sometime in 2011. Awesome news. You can bet Tim and I will be front row! Fingers crossed!

Every Week!

Please, make it stop! I remember looking forward to Friday cliffhangers. Those days are long gone. For well over a month, Ryan and Greenlee are the last people I see before Pine Valley goes dark for the weekend. I hate them! As a matter of fact, everyone does. If it truly is a Frons mandate to play them everyday, he needs to be shown the door. What ever happened to the days of slow builds? Maybe there wouldn't be such contempt for these characters if they weren't monopolizing our television screens. How loud do we have to scream before our voices are heard?

Open The Freedom Gate

Just finished watching Open The Freedom Gate. What amazing wrestling action! Dragon Gate USA is quickly becoming my favorite wrestling promotion. BxB Hulk won the Open The Freedom Gate championship in an extraordinary contest. I could ramble on for hours, but am going to stop. Trust me, you'll be hearing plenty more about Dragon Gate USA.

Permanent Exit!

This is the best news I've heard in a while. Apparently, in the next couple of weeks, there is a plane crash, and Zach is presumed dead. So excited! I hate him! Hope Thorsten and Zach never return!

"Don't Cry For Me..."

I remember seeing a commercial for a tour of Evita during The Tony Awards, insisting to Krystal that we had to go, and getting tickets the next morning. Admittedly, I can't recall much about the performance. I'm sure I was much too enthralled to really take anything in. It must have been wonderful, because I don't remember having any complaints. When I asked Krystal what she thought of the show, she said she'd enjoyed it, but didn't understand where the dog came into play. I was confused, and assured her that there weren't any canine musical numbers. "Why did Che keep referring to a flying dog then?" I laughed. "Not High Flying, A Dog, honey, High Flying, Adored."

My First Live PPV!

What an awesome night this was! Sure, I didn't get to see much of anything once the action started, but just being at a pay-per-view was totally enough. I remember, from time to time, Krystal would stand up and describe what was happening in the ring. For some unknown reason, the Titantron was used sparingly that night. The main event was John Cena vs. Edge, and Krystal and I booed Cena out of the building. Great memories!

Never Anything Like It!


If I were to look back at all the wrestling related entries on my blog, I'd surely come across several instances where I refer to a match or event as the best I've ever been a part of. All previous mentions to that effect are officially null and void. On October 29, 2010, I saw Dragon Gate USA live for the first time. I honestly don't even know how to begin to describe what I was feeling. This was, bar none, the greatest professional wrestling action I've ever seen. No Sports-Entertainment here, just legit, kick-ass action! That Tim was there to share it with, made it the perfect experience. Don't see any other wrestling ever comparing!

Halloween!

Halloween was so much fun this year Seeing the nephews and niece all dressed up was awesome! Great food, great company, great night!









Doofus!

Only cat I've ever known that isn't really afraid of water. The sink is one of his favorite places to lay. Trying to break him of the habit, but there's no denying he's a cutie!
