I was a huge supporter of Open DNS, but with the recent outages and now the broken iCal exchange syncing issue. I don’t understand why something that used to be wonderful is now such a drag. At first I completely enjoyed Open DNS, but then there was a two day outage due to a cache issue with Bank of America. And the latest event, getting told I had an invalid email address in iCal due to a DNS error…. Come On….
Open DNS How I grew to hate you…
Welcome to Smashville 2009
Man yesterday was AWESOME!!! Having not been inside of the Sommet Center for almost 5 months, I was totally pumped before I got there. We went up a bit early to catch the last day of PredsFest 09, but the rain had cancelled the block party, so we ended up walking around downtown, honkeytonk Nashville. Highlight of that was the Zombie walk that had been scheduled for exactly the time we were walking around. The zombies were great, smearing blood on stuff, and in general having good fun. It’s always hilarious to see stuff like this. My vote for best outfit goes to the dude dressed up as Shawn of the dead complete with Cricket bat.
Okay on to the game. We got down early by two. One of which was a terrible mistake by Rinne. They pulled him and threw Ellis into the mix. And then it happened… The fight that would change the whole night. Jordon TooToo just knock Sestito out COLD, and he hit the ice with a massive thud. I like the fighting part of hockey, I think it is a great way to change the momentum of a game. Then the guy one row down from me, turned around and thanked me for my support, told me I knew nothing about hockey, and told me shut up… This dude was another “Preds fan.” (It is in quote because of something that happens in a moment.) All the people around us start giving him a hard time. Everyone was cheering the fight, but apparently only Denise and I needed to learn about the game. And the moment that Sestito got up, we cheered that he was okay. I decided that “the true fan” in front of me wasn’t going to interrupt my enjoyment.
Pow just like that we were back into it, a quick shot from Jones and the horn blasted. Ellis continued to shutdown the few shots we faced. Arnott and Weber delivered wonderful passes that lead to shots and scores. Denise and I were jumping for joy! Oh about “Mr True Fan,” he never cheered for one goal. No excitement, no nothing. So to you “True Fan Man,” Cheif, I give you a rousing get the bug out of your butt, and CHEER FOR YOUR NASHVILLLLLLEEEE PREDATORS!!!!
PS. Thanks Paul

Rainy Days
It is one of those rainy days, the kind of days that I know Marvin is not going to move all day. For some reason, he passes out the moment it rains anywhere in the state. Laney, is probably curled up next to him; however, Khloe the crazy pup is probably going nuts. She has energy for some ungodly place. You can walk her to the point where the others are tired, and she is ready to play. She was so calm the night we brought her home. Resting on Denise, but little did we know the terror below. She grew up to be quite a chunk of sweetness. So enjoy her moment of calm picture included in the post.

First Snow in TN
I love the diverse weather we get here in TN. Enjoy this picture of our first snow in TN this year. Also, I’ve embedded a video of Marvin and Laney enjoying last years snow.

Marvin is the perfect Advertiser!

Slentrol, is a dog medicine that helps with obesity. Of course Marvin is not obese at all, but they sent us the blanket as a gift. The funny thing is though Marvin is huge for a Lhasa not in weight but in size. He’s about 3 inches taller than the typical range. Anyway, enjoy this shot that is so funny because it is not setup. Just Denise running by with a camera at just the right moment.
