Number of comments: 0 With both the Tar Heels and the Panthers on TV tonight, I need a home theater system with nine TVs (in case you're wondering what to get me for Christmas).
Until then, I'll just have to keep dragging myself to the sports bar.
You know we love you and would love to give you anything your little heart desires.
Within reason.
I don't quite understand why you want those stupid things. Maybe you're proud of your family? Maybe you're just in love with your name? I don't know. [...]

First of all, we're both really impressed that you've recently started reading nonfiction books. While we love hearing of the trials and tribulations of Katie Kazoo, Mrs. Piggle-Wiggle, Stink, and that wimpy little bastard, it's nice to hear you spouting off facts for a change. And no, [...]

Number of comments: 0 It's that time of year again: beginning tonight, the NFL expands its programming to three nights a week! Yeah, baby!
Unfortunately, we do not have DirecTV and my cable provider, Time Warner, is still engaging in a pissing match with the NFL Network and refuses to carry that channel. [...]
Number of comments: 0 I think I've made it abundantly clear in the past that music has always been an important aspect of my life. I run my Nameless Twitter Radio Show every week. Hell, this makes the 90th post on Cynical Dad that I've tagged Music.

Number of comments: 0 Yeah. That time again. So there's an online service that lets you rent books (like Netflix, only with books). Um... isn't this called a library? -- 10.30.09
I wish my kids were old enough to go to haunted houses. Or weren't afraid of haunted houses. -- 10.30.09 ' [...]
First of all, I've got to tell you I'm a lifelong Yankees fan. I also feel you've done a hell of a job managing the team and the different personalities this year. Hell, A-Rod alone must've caused more than a few gray hairs!
Number of comments: 0 On Tuesday night, I did another one of my Nameless Twitter Radio Shows. This week's theme was scary music. Like last year's Halloween show, I played horror movie trailers between songs. Unlike last year's Halloween show, I showed up 30 minutes late.
Anyway, here's the playlist: Mechanical Man by [...]
