That’s right, our fearless leader is one more long, lonely step closer to the grave (though by technicality of date, I’m still closer by almost two months). Congrats, big guy.

I am, of course, referring to the Tennessee Volunteers, who were beaten for the first time today by the South Carolina Gamecocks at home, 16-15.
Honestly, I just wanted to be able to write that title. That’s all.

Woman fired from job after taking leave of absense to see her man off to war. What gives??
CALEDONIA, Mich. (AP) - A woman who took an unpaid leave of absence from work to see her husband off to war has been fired after failing to show up for her part-time receptionist job the day following his departure.
“It was a shock,” said Suzette Boler, a 40-year-old mother of three and grandmother of three. “I was hurt. I felt abandoned by people I thought cared for me. I sat down on the floor and cried for probably two hours.”
Officials at her former workplace, Benefit Management Administrators Inc., confirmed that Boler was dismissed when she didn’t report to work the day after she said goodbye to her husband of 22 years.
“We gave her sufficient time to get back to work,” Clark Galloway, vice president of operations for Benefit Management, told The Grand Rapids Press for a story published Wednesday.
He added that other factors were involved in the decision but he declined to elaborate.
On Oct. 16, Boler went with her husband, Army Spc. Jerry Boler, 45, to an Indianapolis-area airfield, where he and others in his National Guard unit gathered to be transported to Fort Dix, N.J. The unit soon will be deployed to Iraq, where he will help guard convoys from insurgent attacks.
Suzette Boler had received permission to take off work the week leading up to her husband’s departure. As a part-time employee at Benefit Management, she did not receive vacation pay and was not compensated for her time off.
When Boler returned home from Indiana on the night of Oct. 16, a few hours after leaving her husband at the airfield, she said she felt drained by the emotional ordeal.
She said she had told her bosses that she would try to return on Oct. 17 but if she could not, she would definitely be back Oct. 18, she said.
But on the afternoon of Oct. 17, she received a call from work telling her to come in the following day and get her things because she was being fired. Her pink slip said the reason was she failed to show up for work Oct. 17, a Monday, she said.
“If I had even an inkling that I would be fired for not coming in Monday, I would have been there,” she said.
Astros loose… joke for the day:
If Morgan Ensberg and his wife Christi ever have a daughter, I’d be worried for her when she’d start dating. Especially in October.
Just take a moment to imagine it:, he’s standing on the porch with a shotgun, yelling “Get your hands off of my daughter!”
But he knows there’s now way he’d ever hit anything with men in scoring position during the playoffs.
Being that I work in the IT industry I get regular emails from all of the virus companies about new viruses. I figured I’d pass them on to you. Some of these new ones are pretty bad, so remeber always backup your work.

The resignation letter can be seen here. I suppose it’s pretty bad for the nominee when even Bush’s supporters were critical of this nomination.
Personally, I’m pretty much okay with this. I’m a Republican and all but Miers has never been a judge, and I would want a Supreme Court Justice to have- oh, I dunno- SOME experience on the bench before moving up to the highest court in the land. The nomination never sat easy with me, and I’d argue there are several qualified candidates for nomination.

Just as the Iraq Constitution’s first draft has passed the US reached 2000 Casualties. But as others in the miliary have stated this number is so that people like Cindy Sheheen, and the rest of the complete nut cases can use it for their own purposes. She cares little for those 2000 people that have died, she only cares about the limelight.
Lt. Col. Steven Boylan, chief spokesman for the U.S. military in Iraq, blasted media coverage for focusing on the 2,000 figure, saying that “the true milestones of this war are rarely covered or discussed.”
“The 2,000 service members killed in Iraq supporting Operation Iraqi Freedom is not a milestone,” he said. “It is an artificial mark on the wall set by individuals or groups with specific agendas and ulterior motives.”
Its a shame that people are touting this around like a badge of honor, a “milestone”. It actually makes me sick.
Four games. That’s all it took.
In four games, Chicago managed to reveal just how utterly defenseless Houston actually was this season. The 15-30 start wasn’t a fluke, after all. In all honesty, Houston never seemed to be in this series at any point. Batting collapsed, and pitching eventually wore out. Garner seemed to lose it as manager as the series wore on, and it made you wonder just where was the team that went 18 innings that day.
This is not to denigrate the performance of the White Sox, mind you. Chicago’s second team managed to do something my beloved Cubs seem totally incapable of doing- win the big games. The city of Chicago has bragging rights once more, as the White Sox are the champions of baseball.
Four fricking games.

I guess you could say every major life change begins at birth. Mine is no different, I was born on my mothers birthday - Halloween. Unfortunately, my memory of this birthday is missing and I only vaguely remember my childhood and the major life changes that occurred early on.
What defines a major life change? A major life change is a turning point in your life. Where you are going along just fine and then suddenly at this “X-marks-the-spot,” you start doing something completely different.
My first turning point was on my 10th birthday. Previously my birthdays had been parties and friends and cakes and pumpkin ice cream. Then we’d always always break out to go trick-or-treating in the neighborhood. It was a yearly thing that I grew to enjoy. I saw some of the kids I went trick-or-treating with only once a year. But this birthday was different. There were no friends, there were no cakes, there were no trick-or-treats. There was “a limited time only” Arby’s Polor Swirl in a plastic mug, a Large Big Roast Beef Sandwich and a small fry.
My mom was trying to hold everything together as we had just come from the hospital where her father was. You see, I spent most of my 5th grade year in California where my grandfather was slowly going into alzheimers and congestive heart failure, among other things. This time he was in the hospital for the doctors to stick a 12″ needle into his chest and drain out the fluid that was building up in his lungs. No sedative. We were both amazed that he just looked at us with no pain whatsoever. A trait in our family apparently.
“I don’t know what to do,” she said. As she sipped her Pumpkin Polar Swirl. “I’m sorry that we didn’t have a real birthday for you or I this Halloween.”
“It’s okay,” I said, “It’s just a day in time. We chose to come out here and take care of him.”
My mom held back her tears.
It was at that point that I realized I was no longer going to have the same life, the same types of things happening. I had to grow up and see the world no longer as a child, but as an adult. See things like, “life will kick you when you are down.”
Days later, on November 9th, 1989 the Berlin Wall came down and marked the ending of the Cold War. A war that myself and my friends had grown up and known . We had grown up knowing only one true enemy. We played American and Russian spy games with plastic guns and walkie talkies in our back yards. Those dastardly Russians. Now the US had no other Super Power to butt heads with. Things would forever be different.
Not too much longer after that, we moved my grandfather back to Louisiana with us and I finished out the rest of my school year there. My summer was marked with a fun-filled trip with my other grandparents and cousins to New Mexico, where I tried to forget that I had grown up; I tried to go back to just being a kid. I almost succeeded, but something had changed. Something always changes when you watch your loved ones slowly wither away in front of you. My grandfather forgot who I am, where he was. etc. Over the course of the next 3 1/2 years, my grandfather lived with us until his death in my freshman year of high school.
His death marked another small turning point in my life and in my mom’s life as well. The next four years I managed to make a ton of friends, enjoy high school, learn about getting a job and getting a driver’s lisence, and take road trips with my best buds: Magik, Jeff, Justin, Cheesemoo, and Freeloader. And finally graduate into the real world, where another major turning point awaited me. And that one, I’ll save for another day.
I have officially started a comeback to posting on the main page of wetwired. Thank you pylorns for allowing me to post on this humble website I’ve been hosted to for years. So a few minutes of my time write a little bit won’t hurt to be followed by your comments.
I plan on writing about anything interesting that’s going on in the news, sports, music, gaming, and the Internet world.
Please comment suggestions below and stay in tune until I post my first article since wetwired has moved to MT.
Go here. Oh yeah.. thats rich.. What would you do?
Y’know, there’s something about driving 1100 miles in four days that really takes it out of a person.
I’ve been on a trip back to Baton Rouge this past weekend. Left Thursday, came back Monday. In that time I’ve tailgated, seen an LSU football game (and subsequently lost my voice within 3 minutes of the game starting- that’s depressing), froze my butt off wearing shorts in 40 degree weather, got stuck in three traffic jams YESTERDAY, and spent almost the entire day on Monday trying to get back home.
Still, it was… fun. Plus, I may be taking another trip down before Christmas for the Arkansas game. So, I’ve got that going for me. Which is nice.
