Art Rooney > Me

I've told y'all a million times, I classify my PSaMP writing as "stream of consciousness sportsblogging." I don't have a schedule, I rarely know what I'm gonna post about when I wake up each morning and I write as I'm thinking. The only editing is to correct typos and blatant lies.

Correction. I do have set posts, in the MPotD and football season's MMCNY. But its the other posts I'm talking about. Like this one, for example. I always try to get you something interesting by mid-day, but I'm struggling right now. So enjoy this ancient interview with Art Rooney until I find something that sparks my interest.

Email me something and I'll post about it today. At some point.

Legos Rule

I gotta show love for the Lego for a quick minute. Today is the 50th birthday of the coolest toy on the block (you like that?).

These little bastards cultivated my love for auto/home repair with simple blocks. I mean, I could make you a cubed car in like a couple seconds with a flat piece (green one in the pic), a few blocks, a steering wheel and some tires.

I grew outta Legos when they started making those massive sets where you could build like a castle or interactive building of some sort. I was used to the simple sets where your imagination dictated what you built. I could build a ridiculous stick/tower.

The above picture was found here. Lego blogs rule. Lego cakes rule as well.

UPDATE: I found a site where you can create yourself as a Lego dude/dudette. I modeled my guy after my ZZ Top-bearded self in my Questions Answered post. I didn't use a blue t-shirt because the Lego-creation site had a Pittsburgh Penguins shirt for some reason.

What's In A Name?

In case you haven't noticed, I've shortened my name at the end of each post. So long tecmo_bowl_bo_jackson. Hello, Tecmo.

This is just for streamlined purposes. I loved (and will continue to love) Bo Jackson (see here, when I used to write sans caps). Tecmo is much easier to say. And it is without underscores.

I'm still the same person you've grown to love (I hope). You can call me whatever you like, though. Tec, Tecmo, TBBJ, tecmo_bowl_bo_jackson, etc. Those of you who are kind enough to email know me as Nicholas. Nick works, too.

So many names.

Just figured I'd keep you in the loop.
