Friday night capped off an extremely busy week with my first ever college football game!  In case you are wondering I was there watching it, not playing.  Freezing rain, my best buds, and an awesome Rutgers game in Army territory, we were up at West Point, made for an awesome time!  Beer and hot chocolate were used only as means to ward off the bitter frost bite that threatened to claim my limbs. 
This was what a football game should be.  Rain, mud, sleet, and a packed stadium of dedicated fans (complete with two former FIT girls who were hit on (by the three of us that were not married) and alas I was harshly turned down, because of my Rutgers allegiance.  I did pretty good that night:  Rob 0 Ladies 3).  In any event a great time was had by all (except maybe for the cute ladies w/in a mile radius).  Rutgers won big!  Pictures will follow this post.

What the Paper failed to include in my review this week was my current condition:  after listening to the album I have yet to stop bleeding from my ears whenever I tilt my head. 

Here is the link so that you can read what they did print (it is still enjoyable):

After seeing a really well done independent film Elementary My Dear Houdini -wherein my Creative Writing Professor, Ed  Stever,  did the voices for Harry Houdini and Sir Arthur Conan Doyle- I have a reinforced picture in my head for the great villain, the elusive  escapist  Franz a.k.a. Subject 361 (see me if you have yet to read any adventures of the world's greatest assassin).  The flick was an excellent portrayal into the friendship and lives of two very prominent and interesting men/artists.  Life is good.  Stories are flourishing.  Rutgers game tomorrow!!  Tune in same Bat time, same Bat channel.
