You know? Loading up my Amazon cart with crazy stuff that I have no business spending cash on, and then I close the window. I make my picks and look back later to see what I could theoretically buy if I managed to save x-amount of dollars at the grocery.<br /><br />What does get me in a snit is the fact that football season means I have to hear Rocky Top at least 438 times per day on the radio. :DYeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10249106318715869387noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8117339092748057578.post-19560500527978095392010-09-01T11:51:32.475-05:002010-09-01T11:51:32.475-05:00@Julesagain - Now that's pretty funny!

I think they just want the pool added to, because I haven't a whisper's chance of winning anything. After the story of Troy Polamalu getting his <a href="http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-us-canada-11150607" rel="nofollow">hair insured by Lloyd's</a>, I let it be known that I'd be picking my players by hair length. Another coworker said he'd be picking his by length of police record.

Wouldn't that be more along the lines of a guy fantasy thing? I am all confused now though because somewhere along the way a spirited game of Monopoly has become involved. Maybe I should go back to the beginning and try to pay more attention to the story this time. :)lizziehoophttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17549192854811356907noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8117339092748057578.post-58829339916495937282010-09-01T07:53:43.626-05:002010-09-01T07:53:43.626-05:00@Eric - 5 kids? 2 Leagues?

I'm not sure how lucky that makes me. You will have to see my latest post for the explanation of that one.<br /><br />@Missy - You are like several of my readers. I received a lot of email asking about my wife beating me. That's not even funny!<br /><br />@belindasbaubles - Loved the brain/puddle reference. And as far as Timberlake... He has served his time.

Now that you've broken it down in monopoly terms I can somewhat understand the novelty, but I'm just going to continue to let it be a guy thing in my own mind.
