The Countdown Begins




The countdown to the Second Annual Farm Party has begun. We are only 11 days out and I am getting excited. For those of you unfamiliar with the First Annual Farm Party, I’ll tell you a little about it. It was a gathering of 12 friends and one stepbrother. My grandparents were gracious enough to lend me their land and house for one special evening. We bought one keg and finished it in 6 hours. We built a bonfire that “required” 10 gallons of diesel fuel and burned for three days. We played yard games and cards till the early morning hours. This year’s party is set to be even better. We have double the friends, food and booze all on the docket. If you have not received your invite, please email me, if you have not responded to your invite, please do so.

Day 11 and Counting



Day 11 refers to how long my family has gone without power in Houston. Can you imagine 11 days without power? Here is a good article that talks about the number of people still without power and the situation surrounding the restoration. And the worst part of it all, they still have no idea when it will be turned back on. I feel for you guys. Hang in there, or come to KC and you can enjoy TV and AC at my place.

New Movie



I saw the previews for this as I was ironing my shirt this morning. Looks pretty entertaining.

I've Been Preoccupied



I'm getting ready for a good week of blogging. Reading up on current events and coming up with new ideas. It should be a good week for my reader(s).

Hunker Down


For all my readers and family in the Houston area, my prayers are with you. It's time to "hunker down". I hope the power doesn't go out for more than a few days. For everyone else, have a nice, safe weekend.

Fast Fact



I came across this bit of information in my 2008 Kansas City Chiefs Fan Guide. Thank you T-nova for hooking me up.

DECIBEL LEVEL
Arrowhead is known to be the “Loudest Stadium in the NFL,” which gives us a great home-field advantage. According to the Acoustical Design Group, Inc. of Mission, Kansas, the following is how the Chiefs rank in maximum sound levels, dBA:

- Threshold of pain – 130
- Arrowhead Stadium – 116
- 727 landing overhead – 106

We are some loud fans here in KC. Go Chiefs.
