The Bears shocked everyone with their BIG win over the Colts. So I just thought I’d post a Dennis Green clip. “They are who we thought they were!”

Wii Fit

August 13th, 2008

We got Wii Fit and once again Nintendo put out another fun game for the Wii. The Wii Fit makes exercising fun! I was surprised that I broke a sweat on some of the exercises. I guess I knew that since the Wii told me I am fat. Here’s a video of Owen playing the soccer game.

White Sox Game vs. Tigers

August 12th, 2008

Terri and I took her nephew’s to the White Sox game. They lost so it was lame, but we did get to see Ken Griffey Jr. I had two tickets on the 1st base line row 19. They were pretty close to Griffey. Since we had the boys and didn’t plan in advance we didn’t have four seats together so when people came we just kept moving up a row. Pretty soon we were in the 12th row or somewhere around there. I got some good pics and then we decided to walk around a bit. My uncle Jerry was there so we talked to him for awhile. Then we went to the top row and sat in the nose bleeds. Well, here are some pictures.

Lollapalooza 2008

August 11th, 2008

I posted pictures of Lollapalooza on flickr. It was a lot of fun. Some of my Highlights were Nine Inch Nails, Flogging Molly and G. Love. One of the shocking bad performances was Perry Farrel. He started out playing a half hour late and then it went downhill from there.

I also took a little video of the NIN concert and decided to test out the video feature of Flickr.

Here’s the lineup as we saw it:
Friday: The Black Keys, Cat Power, The Raconteurs (partial), CSS (partial) and Radiohead.
Saturday: The Gutter Twins, Perry (partial), DeVonchKa (partial), Brand New, Jamie Lidell, Lupe Fiasco, Toadies, Rage Against the Machine and Wilco.
Sunday: What Made Milwaukee Famouse, The Whigs, Brazilian Girls, John Butler Trio, Chromeo, Black Kids, G. Love & Special Sauce, Flogging Molly, Love and Rockets, The National, and Nine Inch Nails.

We had a lot of fun and saw a lot of bands.

Elk Grove High School Baseball

July 25th, 2008

Elk Grove H.S. Varsity Baseball was part of the final four! They played this morning and the winner was going down state for the championship. Here is a picture from the Sun Times of my cousin, Justin Kaczynski. He’s getting tagged out here :( but they won that game.

I just heard that they lost this morning. Oh well, good job EG for getting this far!
