Hoo Dat? Me... Do you remember O.P.P.? [Apr. 14th, 2006|06:44 pm]

Well, it has been a hectic 2006 for those of you who I have miserably failed to put up to speed. So (in no particular order), here goes what the Heck has been going on with the Notorious One:

First and foremost, I no longer work at the Cosmodome. After being at the Reservation Desk for just over a year, I was hired by Vidéotron who have been doing massive recruting for their Customer Service department. I left my former job on March 1st and on March 2nd, I was starting my new job. The salary is much better even if I have to work (eventually) evenings and Saturdays. My two days off will be Tuesdays and Sundays until better schedules are available as they keep on hiring new staff. I have been thru an extensive month (23 Business Days) of Training, two days on the job with a Regular and today was Day 8 on the Floor. (Two more days with our personal Coach and then... they will unleash us for good.)

Meanwhle, my LARP got revamped (what a bad pun!) with a Second Reset. This time, it was because Life has been taking away player after player and we are pretty much down to a dozen to fifteen really committed players. So I started things back off with a Historical Twist, we are taking it from the top with the History of Quebec.

In addition, I am still running my Forgotten Realms game (it is almost three years old) and I am trying to get my new DragonLance game off the ground. I play in my girlfriend's Return to the Temple of Elemental Evil campaign and in a Second Edition (Old School) Ravenloft campaign.

[Fortunately, none of those really run more than once a month or so...]

I still live in an appartment in the City with my girlfriend.
I still need to lose weight.
I got to see my Mom yesterday who is in town for Easter.
I still am that wonderful guy you all miss so much. [NOT NEARLY AS MUCH AS I MISS YOU ALL.]
I still wonder who I grew up so much, so fast... and became (oh yucky...) an adult! :o)

I follow The Apprentice, The Amazing Race and Survivor in addition to Wrestling. I am looking forward to pester some people about the Habs making the playoffs and some other bunch of chumps and old men (who will not be mentionned in this entry) selling tickets off even though their Franchise are headed to the PGA rather than to the Stanley Cup! :o)

I miss the NFL but the Draft is in two weeks... and I am not so sure Reggie Bush is going to pick First. As a matter of fact, if I was the Texans... I would go for Defense with Mario Williams.

I remember O.P.P. ... unfortunately!

Glad to see you back around!

However, I think the Texans *will* pick Reggie Bush first, not because it's the best move (I think it almost never is best to take an RB as first pick because of their short careers) but because if they don't do it, then there will be riots in Houston. Then, everything that goes wrong in the season will be blamed on the fact that they took someone else.

Picking Reggie Bush

(Link)

You make a great point about what happens to the Texans if they don't pick Reggie Bush.

What I don't understand is that even if Reggie Bush doesn't need an Offensive Line to score TD for the Texans (Wishful Thinking...), how is he going to stop any decent NFL Team from holding on to the ball long enough to ice him cold on the bench and rack up as many points and more than he can dish out?

I find that Offensive and Defensive Linemen are very underestimated as First Round Draft Picks... They have long careers and when you have a good one, you can make a good line look A WHOLE LOT BETTER.
