Beer count: I'm gonna say it's up to about 48. I had 4 the other night in the city while attneding a fund-raiser (they got no funds out of me, though) and had about 8-9 at the Big St. Paddy's Day party on Saturday.
Either I'm getting older, or I'm just a drunk or I have no life (or all of the above), but that damn party is one of my favorite days of the year. The dude who runs it has a great party house if you have kids. He has this downstairs room where they pretty much entertain themselves for hours while the parents stay upstairs, drinking, eating, golfing and watching hoops.
Now, I did get ripped by a guest at the party and the dude was absolutely right. I arrived wearing my Guiness pants and a Guiness hooded sweatshirt. However, I wasn't in the mood to drink the stuff, so I was pretty much drinking Miller Lite all night. Some dude called me on it, pretty much saying how could a walking Guinness ad drink Miller Lite. I realized he was right, so I had 1 Guinness and then stopped drinking. Awful job by me.
SPeaking of hooded sweatshirts, I have a piece of advice for anyone out there. If you spend a lot of time at work on the phone, don't wear a hooded sweatshirt. It becomes a real pain in the ass, especially if you have one of those neck things on your phone that prevents Frezzaitis. Of course, on Sundays, I usually bust out the hoody and get easily frustrated.
Now, picking up my homeowners rant from the last post, I just spent $150 today on lawn care stuff and can estimate at least another $150 to go before I can spend 8 hours Saturday and 8 hours Sunday trying to make my grass look good. Of course, no matter how hard I work and how much I spend, it will look good until about mid-July, when New Jersey becomes a dry, barren wasteland and all grass turns to hay. I'm thinking of having the cement dude just pave over the whole yard and can build a hoop court in the backyard.
Anyway, Opening Day just 7 days away, but as long as the Rangers are in the hunt for the Cup, I'm not too fired up for baseball, yet.

Gimmee one.....HEEEEEEEEEE!!!!
Whadaya doin' mang?
Frezzaitis. Very nice.
"...as the Rangers are in the hunt for the Cup, I'm not too fired up for baseball, yet" Not nice.
I love the Rangers as much as the next guy, but baseball trumps all.
Take me out to the ballgame....la la la la...
About that realtor I called last week... never mind.
No, renting blows, too. I'm just saying when you buy a hut be ready to shell out bags of cash for shit you never thought of before.
I gotta pay like $35 a month for dudes to take the garbage twice a week.
I just keep telling myself when I'm 70 years old, I can sell the hut and purchase a nice colostomy bag or something.
Y'know. I was all fired up when Cablevision finally came to an agreement to carry the new Mets network, SNY. Thank God, I didn't have to move.
And it's not just the Mets programming I was excited about. Year-round coverage of the Jets, an alternative to YES and MSG or New York sports coverage and even an interesting show called Daily News Live.
When I tuned into that show for the first time, Wednesday evening, I was very disappointed with the shows standards for panalists, which included our very own Joe P, looking very serious and doing NO shtick in his suit and tie. He looked absolutely tortured with his leg crossed throughout the first 10-15 minutes of the broadcast. His mood definitely brightened, however, when some blonde, Swedish supermodle joined the boys on stage.
I hope Mrs. Pendelton wasn't tuned in.
By the way, when did Joe P become a "baseball writer" as the graphic said when he was introduced?
C'mon cat, I ripped Vic Zambrano just for you.
Supermodel was very attractive. And very nice, too.
Perhaps next time you can expose Loopey as a hypocrite...
On Sports Reporters last week, he ripped baseball and its partners who profited from a product beefed up on steroids.
This, coming from the same guy who gushed about McGwire and Sosa in his book "Summer of '98."`
Schill: You can say Apple keeps the show moving. I think they need to get on there as a SHU expert. I'll see what I can do.
Pete: I value my gig, but good point.
