WOW! She smoked her opponent tonight.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Now it&#8217;s time to get excited, ROLL TIDE. #2 in the AP Polls with 21 1st place votes! </p>
<p>If you are not an Alabama or SEC fan, you have no way of knowing what it&#8217;s like down here with college football. I know some places are passionate about it, but unless you&#8217;ve been here, you just don&#8217;t know how crazy it gets here in Tuscaloosa. </p>
<p>I am not your typical Alabama fan though. I love my fellow fans, but we have some of the most narrow minded fans in the world. They typically ignore facts and think that we are the best team in the country, even if we are 0-12. I see it how is for the most part. I didn&#8217;t expect a win last Saturday vs. Georgia. Sure, I was damn sure hoping, but not expecting it.</p>
<p>When we were sitting at 3-0 and the radio show Alabama fan callers were penciling Alabama into the championship game, I was holding my face in my palm. When we hit 4-0, I was saying to friends and family, &#8220;Let&#8217;s not get too excited yet&#8221;. Well, at 5-0, I am ready to relax a little. But&#8230;</p>
<p>I am very pleased with Bama at 5-0, I loved the 1st half 31-0 ass whooping. I was not pleased with the 2nd half though. I feel that we should have continued to play as tough as possible throughout the entire game. Georgia seemed to get a little better the 2nd half too, but I saw some letting up from Bama too.</p>
<p>Anyhow, I am starting to get excited about this season. It&#8217;s starting to look like I should change my expectations. Being happy with 8-4 might be too easy of a task for the TIde!</p>
<p>ROLL TIDE!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Mark likes to chime in on various subjects and here is what he has to say about the Bailout.</p>
<blockquote><p>As you can tell by the number of the posts on this subject, I think we are in a very serious financial situation in this country. It&#8217;s bad for everyone and like many others while I think the Bailout is necessary, I would prefer any solution that doesn&#8217;t involve the government. Unfortunately, I don&#8217;t think a pure market based solution is possible.</p>
<p>That said, I considered what it would take for me to part with my money to provide liquidity into the banking system.</p>
<p><strong>I will not just write a check to the Treasury. Thats like handing it to Ted Stevens. I&#8217;m not going to voluntarily give a year&#8217;s supply of crack to the junkies.</strong></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>This is the last one. I can&#8217;t take it anymore. I left early AM Sunday and I am in a Town car right now on the last 1 hour of a short trip. Why am I done? Well, I am freaking exhausted. I left Seattle at 5am this morning, United Airlines threw us in a plane from Chicago to Birmingham without air conditioning, and did I mention I am exhausted? </p>
<p>Was the info I was presented in Redmond worth the trip. Yes and no. Yes, it was great info and I appreciate the opportunity to learn and provide input, but not worth the 2 day trip. I won&#8217;t be doing it again. </p>
<p>I also won&#8217;t be traveling United Airlines ever again. They are pathetic. 45 Minutes late leaving Sunday morning without anyone telling us what was happening. I had to sprint from terminal to terminal in Chicago to make my connecting flight by 1 whole minute. Luggage issues in Seattle, not to mention $40 to check in luggage now. Topping it all off, no AC on a 1:40 min flight. </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Back in March 2007, <a href="http://chris.leckness.com/2007/03/18/twitter-smitter/" target="_blank">I resisted the urge</a> to go with the flow and try out Twitter. About 6-7 months ago, I decided to finally give it a try. It was kind of neat.  Time went on and I rarely used it. Not too long ago, I got a kick to really try it out and actually did real good keeping up with folks, communicating, and enjoying random crap that people had to say. Last month, I realized I was spending a lot of wasted time refreshing twitterific, etc&#8230; I slowed down my reading and posting. Now, a couple weeks later, I feel that my productivity has improved.</p>
<p>I don&#8217;t miss anything about Twitter really. One cool thing about Twitter is the chance to follow your favorite sites via Twitter. (Mobilitysite has a Twitter Account too) The thing is, I read RSS Feeds on/off all day. I don&#8217;t need Twitter to tell me someone posted a story.</p>
<p>As for following friends and family. They know my phone number, email address, etc&#8230; They can call, text, email, pm, or whatever me whenever they want.</p>
<p>Thanks for following me if you did. Peace. Posts to this blog WILL REMAIN as sporatic as they have been this last year. I might throw a new look at it this week though.</p>
<p>Facebook? I&#8217;ll get on there every once in a while.</p>
