Let’s start with the “good” of bad movies – The Love Guru. Yes, this was one of the silliest, stupidest, most poorly written pieces of garbage I have seen in some time… but you know what? It was funny. Of course, it had all the same shticks as every Mike Myers film. Of course, it [...]

The football craziness continues
August 30th, 2008 
Chris Doelle The gridiron marathon is just about half over as I sit in the Alamodome in San Antonio, Texas. We are midway through the second game of three and it has been great so far. Not only is the football great, but catching up with the Houston portion of the LSG crew is always a treat. [...]
LSG Report
August 30th, 2008 Chris Doelle Week Zero is almost over. As we head to Texas Stadium for the final stanza of opening weekend, I thought it would be a good time to recap some of the highlights. As I mentioned earlier, it started for us Thursday in Abilene for the Odessa Permian win over Duncanville. The play of the Permian [...]

August 29th, 2008 Chris Doelle Wow – what an action packed opening week. Things started off with a trip to Shotwell Stadium in Abilene, Texas for the game between the Odessa Permian Panthers and the Duncanville Panthers. The game looked to be a one-sided blowout in Permian’s favor, but the wheels fell off late and it ended up going down [...]

August 28th, 2008 Chris Doelle That’s right, I am surfing again – couchsurfing that is. After an excellent first game of the season for Lone Star Gridiron, Eric and I are crashing with our hosts in Abilene. They are a really cool group of people sharing a pretty big house. I would go into more detail now, but its bed [...]
Wow “tall boy” Dr. Peppers
August 27th, 2008 Chris Doelle I caught a six pack of 16 oz. “tall boy” Dr. Pepper at H.E.B. tonight and had to grab one. Sure, it’s not the real cane sugar Dr. Pepper – but it is cool. It was the “Sabrosura” and “33% Mas” that caught my attention as much as the extra large cans. Hey, it doesn’t [...]
I wish I was earning frequent ‘driver’ miles
August 27th, 2008 Chris Doelle You know I keep a pretty harried schedule, but it is about to get seriously crazy over the next few days. Even if you discount all the driving I have been making in the last few weeks, the stretch between now and Tuesday is brutal. Thursday – drive from San Marcos to Abilene for the [...]

The war continues in NW Houston
August 26th, 2008 Chris Doelle For years, the cheapest gasoline in the state has been within blocks of the house I own in Houston. I was there earlier in the week on a video production job and wasn’t surprised to see the prices nearly 40 cents below San Marcos gas. What shocked me was this: Nice. You see the Chevron [...]
Can you believe this? A new PMC Top10!
August 24th, 2008 Chris Doelle I had to exclaim “Holy Macaroni!” when I looked down at my iTunes directory and spied a PMC Top10 episode downloading! Yes, thanks to my good friend and fellow music enthusiast, the PMC is NOT dead. That is indeed a brand new show you see coming down the pipe! The delay has been painful for [...]
