These are always the most difficult 3 days of my year: when the Rangers travel to Boston to take on my beloved Red Sox at Fenway. My allegiances are put to the test: do I honor family tradition and my roots? or do I swear allegiance to my Texas, the place where I have built… Continue reading An Unlikely Hero

AI Predictions: A Perfect 10!
LOST has completely messed with my universe. First, we have the mysteries of the island. Then we have alternate timelines and realities and smoke monsters taking the form of formerly dead characters. As if that weren’t enough, now we have the whole mythos of the “list” and the “candidates” and the balance between light and… Continue reading AI Predictions: A Perfect 10!
AI Predictions: The Final 11
Really, I should just take a mulligan on this because: 1) I haven’t watched the show yet and 2) I don’t really have time to blog about a show I haven’t even watched. But I’m not going to do that. I’m going to live on the edge and make a prediction based solely on the… Continue reading AI Predictions: The Final 11

Take it! Take it! Take it!
This seems to be the summer of death. First it was Farrah and Michael. Then Billy “Mr. Sham-WOW” Mays. Followed shortly thereafter by Walter Cronkite. And now we have…Alexis Cohen. Who? You ask. Let this video remind you. [youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LimOXvLszwU[/youtube] According to the news, she was struck by a car as she attempted to cross a… Continue reading Take it! Take it! Take it!
AI Predictions: The Final Four
I honestly don’t know what all the hubbub is about the final 4. It’s not like the Miss America contest where third runner-up still gets a terrific bouquet and an awesome sash and a “scholarship” or anything. You get in the final four on American Idol, and you get the same thing as the final… Continue reading AI Predictions: The Final Four
AI Predictions: 7 + 1 – 1 -1 = 6
It’s Disco Night…and you know what that means. It’s hit or miss for our contestants. The hits: Danny, Kris (WOW), and Adam. Allison had a strong showing but it definitely wasn’t her best performance. She seemed to be trying too hard and a little over the top. I think she’ll be safe, but she needs… Continue reading AI Predictions: 7 + 1 – 1 -1 = 6
