Hey, it’s Friday. Been one of those weird short/long weeks for me because I was out of town in the middle of the week experiencing a train ride gone bad and a flight back to Dallas involving a 3 year old and a 5 year old who sat right in front of me.

Yea! The words, “My ears still hurt” continue to echo in my head. (that’s what the cute little 3 year old girl kept repeating.)   As a parent, I have sympathy for those with kids- I have been there. But seriously “Lady Who Thinks It’s Funny”, get your kid to stop kicking the seat in front of her, give her some gum and tell her to be quiet and stop repeating the same phrase over and over again. I’ma  grumpy old man! Grady Niblo!

Oh and the train ride? A one hour ride from Wash DC to Baltimore ended up taking about 2 1/2 hours because of something?  Track humping? Huh? Sounds dirty to me.  I kid you not, for about half the ride, I could have jumped off the train and ran faster. And it wasn’t even a nice train like DART or the TRE. It was called MARC. Must Always Ride Congested.  Hah- I just made that up. Genius! Maybe not.  On with the random thoughts!

• I wish we had a Legal Seafood Restaurant in DFW. Awesome crab cake.  Just wow.
• Heroes on NBC is fun to watch but I don’t really get into it like I used to.
• I went to an acting class last weekend and I really had a good time.
• I am afraid to look at my 401(k) from my last job. I have yet to transfer it to my new job.
• Somebody advised me 2 years ago that I should buy gold. Wish I had listened.
• I really really love Tina Fey’s impression of Sara Palin.
• I don’t want my blog to get political.  So there you go again, Joe! You betcha!
• I have watched every Scrubs episode at least 4 times.
• Who had Pacman Jones would get in trouble by the 4th game? I missed it by two games. Dang!
• I grew my goatee back. If I fill in for Chip again, I am not going to shave unless somebody at Fox asks me to.  That’s right, I am sticking it to the MAN! Take that establishment!
• One of the big VPs at my company has a goatee so I don’t have to worry about them saying anything.
• There is a chance I might be in LA, Chicago, Baltimre and Miami in the next 2 months.
• I need to buy one of those cool little “I’m a “business traveller” rolling suitcase thingie that fits in the overhead bin.
• My 2 year old iPod can’t hold a charge if I watch videos. It only lasts about an hour. I know, life is rough.
