I'm getting married! ·

Last week I proposed to my wonderful fiancé Colleen. It was a great time! Since we met at our local bowling alley almost 6 years ago, I figured what better place to propose than at the bowling alley :)
I didn’t think she would be expecting it, and it ended up being such a cool surprise! I brought a change of clothes for each of us and after we both had a chance to let the feelings sink in, we changed and headed out to our favorite fancy downtown restaurant, where champagne and a wonderful dinner were waiting for us.

flossmoor's pumpkin 3.14 ·

Last week the miss and I went to the annual Brewmaster’s Dinner at Rock Bottom Brewery here in the city. It was just about the best idea for a dinner party… 6 finely crafted beers, eac paired with a great meal course. The crowd was really cool, all the brewers were there taling about their beers and the chef introduce each course and talked about why she chose the food to pair with the beer.
While all the beer was excellent, the intro beer, Pumpkin 3.14 [3.14 == Pi; get it :) ] by Floosmoor Station blew me away. This by far the best seasonal beer I have ever had, and possibly the best overall beer i have ever had.

Granderson and Willie Mays ·

A few days ago, my favorite player Curtis Granderson entered the record books rightnest to Willie Mays. He has become the 2nd player in MLB history (aside from Mays) to ever have at least 30 triples, 20 doubles, 20 homers and 20 stolen bases in a single season. Curtis continues to amaze!
It is worth mentioning that 8 teams this season do not even have 30 triples as indivual teams.

THIS IS AMAZING: Human Echolocation - Seeing with sound ·

This pod came up on current.tv the other night and I was blown away. It talks with the 3 people in the world who have mastered the art of seeing with sound. These people are completely blind, but have taught themselves to use self-generated sounds to take a sonic snapshot of their environment.
