Thanksgiving Update

Hung out with the guys as Jesse & Shnu were in town, and went to see For Your Consideration -- which I think was quite funny, albeit a little short for my tastes. "Home for Purim" comes in there as one of my favorite Fake Movie-within-a-Movie concepts ever, because how funny is that idea. WIth the accents and the dialogue... (Ironically, the Haman I was protecting you from was me!) just priceless.

Am thankful for pain medication. Thursday morning, we played football. Initially it was going to be flag, but we wound up playing 10-on-10 and it's really hard to grab flags in muddy & raining conditions - you eventually have to tackle just to get flags off... so we went to playing standard tackle with offensive & defensive lines. And me playing mostly fullback. The hits and such weren't too much of a problem and I'm not really bruised or beat up, but my back... oy - that was aching fierce this morning.

Also, thankful to Miami which went out and beat Boston College... As a result, tonight's Maryland-Wake Forest matchup (On ESPN at 7:45 PM EST, live from College Park, MD) becomes meaningful. The winner plays Georgia Tech next saturday for the Atlantic Coast Conference championship and a berth in the Orange Bowl.

GO TERPS!!! I'll be there in my Vernon Davis Jersey (#18) ...
