Looking back, this is my second or third post concerning those folks who feel it's necessary to get wasted to enjoy any type of sporting event. After attending the Alabama/Southern Miss game Saturday (27-3 Roll Tide!!), I have come up with the following observations about our inebriated brothers...
1. To drunk folks...clothing is optional. Apparently when you're drunk, your body becomes better looking than it did before partaking in the fermented beverage, and man are they proud of those bodies! Nothing I like better than a bare sweaty beer gut glistening in the noonday sun.
2. To drunk folks...what they have to say is important and should be heard by everyone around. Please don't try to ignore them. This only causes them to raise the decibel level and repeat themselves over and over and over and over...you get the point.
3. To drunk folks...everything must be said as loudly as possible...regardless of the situation. There's nothing like a drunk Junior fan screaming "Crank 'em up!" in the middle of the "opening prayer".
4. To drunk folks...you're never too drunk to take on a flight of stairs. This is a challenge that can really be fun to watch. Unless, of course, the spill on the stairs turns into a spill in your lap. Yikes! (This also applies to climbing over a row of seats or walking down an aisle to your seat)
Unfortunantly, times up (i.e. break time's over). I hope this has been an educational post for all to enjoy. Feel free to leave your own observations in the comment section.
Peace.

Wow! What a Ride!
Is it October already? Wow! That's hard to believe...now how to fill you in on the past month or so. Hmmmm....ok, here goes.
First off, the wedding did happen and everything went great! We had a blast. Surrounded by 16 of our closest friends, Laura and I tied the knot. She was gorgeous! I hadn't seen her all day, so as soon as she appeared at the back door of the auditorium I almost lost it. Seriously, the tears almost started to flow, but I got it together and met her and her dad at the front. I couldn't take my eyes off of her. Wow!
Anyway, the ceremony went off without a hitch (except for the time our ring bearer, Cameron Thompson, rolled down the steps during the first prayer. He was ok. Didn't cry a bit. Just a quick call for daddy. He's a tough little dude), and we headed back down the aisle as husband and wife to the sounds of "Celebration" by Kool and the Gang. :-)
The honeymoon was a Disney World extravaganza. Limoed from the Orlando Airport to The Grand Floridian for 5 days/nights of Disney fun. We saw the Cirque du Soleil, Fantasmic, Downtown Disney, MGM, Magic Kingdom, Epcot, Typhoon Lagoon (where we swam with sharks!), and the Animal Kingdom (pics to follow in later posts). Everything was perfect until...
We were supposed to fly out of Orlando at 2:00 Friday afternoon...then Hurricane Frances came a calling. 2 hours before our flight was to leave they closed the Orlando Airport and we were stuck at Disney World. I know what you're thinking...oh boy, stuck at Disney, how harsh, how did u ever survive? And you're partially right...if I was gonna get stuck anywhere, Disney World and our honeymoon would be the place to be stuck. But Disney doesn't stop charging you if you're stuck either. Luckily, thanks to Dave Ramsey, we had an emergency fund to fall back on. Money wasn't a problem, it would just have to be replaced when we got back. We did, however, move over to the Wilderness Lodge for the hurricane portion of our stay. So, one additional day turned into 4 and after rescheduling our flight 2 times, we flew from Orlando to Huntsville to Atlanta to Montgomery, finally getting home at 1:00 a.m. Wednesday morning. Whew!!!
