B is for Beer

B is for Beer.



*That's me in the #40 Pat Tillman Arizona Cardinals jersey*

Yesterday I ventured out to ONeal's in Clarksville, TN - a pretty decent place to watch a football game via NFL Sunday ticket when my favorite game of the week isn't broadcast on either the local FOX or CBS networks.

But I digress.

I was there to see the Dallas Cowboys at Arizona Cardinals game.

And drink some beer.

After being in AZ for almost 25 years, I wasn't surprised and nearly expected that I would be the only Cardinal fan in the building--but low and behold there was one other guy! After that I was rather underwhelmed by the lack of support for the Cowboys (aka America's Team).

Anyway, after numerous beers and an OT, the Cardinals won 19-13. Yay!

I know there was more to this story, but after numerous beers this is all that mattered.

OSFA. One. Size. Fits. All.

Somehow that 'universal' tag seemed so appropriate at the time I created this blog.

It was right then at the creation of my blog that I made up my mind that I wanted to write about anything and everything--frankly because tackling many subjects seemed easier than mastering just one, if that makes any sense.

Curiously I still struggle with this concept. What should be easy, I make difficult. Do I still believe that each entry should be something about which I can write at length? Seriously, this is supposed to be fun!

This is my personal challenge: Write. Period.

Ultimately the point is that writing is better than not writing.

And I haven't been writing.

Damn it~!

However--it is now time to look forward, not back.

A is for Acronyms.

You'd be surprised at the number of people that can't figure out LOL. Or LMAO. Don't even get me started on LMFAO or ROFLMFAO.

That said, there are a few acronyms that float around the Internet that are not all that recognizable at first, but once explained produce that knowing 'ah-ha!' look.

(thanks Rachel!)

I saw that today and realized that at the very least I should acknowledge it because quite possibly this was created just for me. I don't know exactly how other people's minds work, but there seems to be no end to the inappropriateness that shuttles in and out of my mind at work. If one day I write a book, I'm sure the title should be NSFW.
