The 411 From 406
From the monthly archives: January 2010
A couple of days before Christmas our dog Ralphie had some pretty serious back surgery. His entire back had to be shaved and he had an incision about 6 inches long running down his spine. Luckily he’s recovering nicely but it’s been a long road back for sure. We’ve got to carry him up and [...]
WrestleMania XXVI will take place on March 28th in Arizona. I’m happy to say that after working through some logistical issues, Pip and I will once again renew our Beeramid tradition! As with years past, we have created these “rules of engagement” which will help us to construct that glorious structure.
It’s been a while since I’ve said a whole lot about the boys so I figured today was as good a day as any. A couple of weeks back we took our yearly trip to Naples, Florida. The wife went down about 10 days before I did and then I went down, spent a [...]
For those of you that are facebook users you’re probably familiar with the “friend suggestions” that they give you on a regular basis.

A couple of weeks back I tuned in to a Monday night show of TNA Wrestling and was pleasantly surprised with the show that they put on (from a wrestling perspective). I was however kind of shocked when I looked at the roster to see just how many old WWE and WCW guys [...]
I’ve been enthralled for years by the story of the Zodiac killer so I was very much looking forward to seeing this flick – not sure why it took me so long but I’m happy that I’ve finally gotten around to seeing it. For those that don’t know, Zodiac tells the story of a serial [...]
So last week we got about 30 inches of snow in a two day period. This of course means snowblowing… and lots of it. I’m a tad bit anal when it comes to keeping my driveway clean so I’m the neighbor that’s out there multiple times per day keeping it clear.
