Re-wording that Works.

"Why do you think U.S. troops aren't professional enough to serve with gays and lesbians?" as asked last night via a Youtube video question at the Republican Debate.

NY Players in DC

So now that the long weekend is well over and Wednesday has come I am finding the time to sit and post about the things that have been going on since Thanksgiving.

I just posted a few pictures from Thanksgiving Parade but after the parade was packing for a volleyball tournament in Washington DC.

Went down with a team of my friends who play in both Gotham and Urban here in NYC.

We were playing in a new division, BB+. It is equal mix of rated A and BB players and I was looking forward to it.

Kind of funny how the last few tournaments I have been to I have ended up playing with a setter who I had never met before we stepped on the court. But let me see both times have been very enjoyable; the first was a great setter who led our team through some great games and the second from the past weekend was just as good but he made me laugh and be silly throughout the weekend. I look forward to hanging out with him again really soon even though he is up in Toronto.

We finished our first day 2wins and 6 losses leaving us at the bottom of the pack, but come the second day and re-jiggering some things in our line up led us to a third place medal. I was very happy with it. I don't think I played as well as I have been this season but I had my serves, blocks and I was passing some good balls when need be.

The ride home with my friends teammate Philton and his husband Thomas was great as I never get to spend that much time with them on a personal basis. Love them both.

Now I am back home for two days and still trying to find the time to empty the DVR.

More Pics from the Parade.

Just thought I would keep it simple and show those select few pictures that I really liked and the street corner we were on for reference sake.
Was my first time in my 13 years of being in the city of actually being there for the beginning of the parade and dealing with the crowds.
Was fun and of course hanging with my buddy Vilmar made it great. I will miss him when he leaves to go back to UTA in less than two weeks.

Thanksgiving Look.

Just sitting here in DC waiting for my friend to get himself together and I thought I would post a pic from Thursdays parade.

Keeping It Simple:

Happy Thanksgiving to One and All.

I Swear....

Editors of Project Runway:
Please, please edit out any more of Ricky crying.
It is only the second episode and he has cried at least twice.
Bitch can't take it.
Just edit him out of the show.
I don't care if he ends up winning; which I highly doubt.

I swear is he cries one more time for no reason in his little hysterical manner I will stop watching until he gets his "auf wiedersehen" from Heidi.

Oh Project Runway..

I am just about to watch tonights episode on the DVR so I can skip through the commercials and all of Tim's "Words of Wisdom". I swear that man is now working my last nerve.
I would think Parson's would lock him out.

I have no favorites since the hottie Raimi gave, in my opinion, one of the most boring creations last week. Especially if that is the basic stuff he does in his store. Is he another Chloe? I really liked Chloe though.

Hope you dig that MadTV skit. They really can make u crack on a show.
