Baseball is upon us. Major League Baseball opened their regular season on Sunday night. I'm actually one of the few people I know that enjoy watching baseball. My Texas Rangers lost a close game to the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim (or whatever they're going by) last night and are currently in extra innings as I write this. The surprising thing is that these are low scoring games. At least through 2+ games, the Rangers pitching is holding up. Now if they can just keep it up for 160 more games...
Still haven't been able to mess with my quasi-functional Linux box. May not be able to until after taxes, which probably means not until after April 14th.

I hate taxes.
I've had a chance to play around with a Sony PSP and, I must say, they are impressive. I couldn't believe how good Spiderman 2 looked on it's color screen. I can't wait until someone figures out how to run Linux on it.
I hate taxes.
Can't wait for the start of Major League Baseball tomorrow. My Texas Rangers should make a strong run for the playoffs. Can't wait for the Final Four this weekend. Should be 3 very good games.
Mac OS X 10.4 Tiger should be here in a few weeks-a year ahead of Longhorn. Wish I had the money right now. It's really nice to see some companies still innovating.

I love March Madness. This is almost as good as college football bowl week(s). So much unpredictability. Even if you're not a basketball fan, you've got to love it.
I'm very lucky to have had a great group of friends growing up. I still talk to all of them today and a couple of them I see almost everyday. Most people can't say that.
If you don't have an iPod, get one...now; you won't regret it. I wish I would have purchased some Apple stock when it was hovering around $14. The sad thing is, I knew they were going to do what they're doing now. I just hate spending money.
Three day weekends are awesome.

One of my favorite times of the year is upon us. The NCAA basketball tournament is one of the greatest happenings in the world of sports. Even casual and non-sports fans participate in office pools, etc. Even though I consider myself somewhat knowledgeable, I usually do terrible in these pools. There are also great games taking place over the next three weeks. Can't wait.
