Reid About It

I'd like to thank all of you who voted for my NaNoWriMo project this year. It was really close, and "The Final 48, or The Five People I'm Going To Meet In Hell" won by a single vote. I've already done better in one day (2200 words) than all of last year (112 words). I'll post some of it to this site later.


Bob Seger is going to tour, but he'll be playing his new stuff. Sounds great! I love to hear a guy with a thirty-year catalog of quality songs going on tour committed to a setlist that'll leave us not worrying about taking a bathroom break. Seriously, I know you're proud of the new stuff. Just give us a few of them, and sell the album at a discount at the concert. We'll hear the classics and walk off with the new one.

I got my daughter a dog, a beagle. Her pound name was Harriet, but we decided to call her Hazel. I've decided pretty much any name that makes you think of an old lady with a Minnie Pearl hat on is a good name for a beagle.

A commercial for "The Ultimate Can Opener" came on. It claimed the product would be the best can opener I ever used. Is that something most people keep stats on? I mean, I've got a top five, but it hasn't been updated in a while. Currently, my favorite can opener ever was from a bed and breakfast in Pocatello, Idaho. Beat that!

When I see "Coach Season I On DVD: Limited Edition", I agree. It's limited for a good, common-sense reason.

I saw a guy with an orange mohawk and an "aeropostale" shirt. You normally only see that kind of identity confusion in gay black Republicans.
