Police Blotter Power Rannkings

Found this article from espn.com amusing. The most amazing part of it is that Stephen Jackson did not take home the number one spot after kicking a cripple, firing his gun into the air, and getting hit by a car, who are these people?

This Just in

This just in apparently my little bro, timmmay won the 2006 harkins family holiday MVP. This is a huge turn of events as he is the first relative under the age of 21 to take home such an award. I must say that even though I have been gone for most of the events this year I know that it was a hard fought and closely contested battle. One can only assume that the drunken breakdancing at MR and MRS gadgets wedding was enough to carry him through the entire competition, really nobody can disagree with such a decision.
Congratulations to timbo as I am sure this signifies the start of an amazing career, and should probably be included on college applications

BNS

As I am sure you are all painfully aware of a painful pandemic of BNS (blog neglect syndrome) has been going around. I think I have finally recovered from the virus so I will do my best to provide a brief update of the last three weeks or so. Lets see....
-at one point we had a holiday party where I got nice and drunk, went to bed at a reasonable hour then was awoken due to a first aid emergency at 3:30 in the morning, once the house stopped spinning around me it was ok.
-the day after the holiday party gave an AmeriCorps presentation at a universal unitarian church, turns out the presentation was actually there sunday service, I am not even going to try and explain this.
-Spent christmas in Boston, mad props to the Richmond family for welcoming me into their home for the holidays
-I am now certified by the red cross to train people in first aid and cpr, seriously how is this a good idea?
-Missing the Gonzaga Duke game because Oklahoma State Pitt went into double overtime and ESPN2 refused to switch over, effing east coast
-Did a scavenger hunt with a puppet named franklin (you may know him from arrested development) pics may or may not come later
-Being the only AmeriCorps staff in the office today, not good or bad just worth mentioning
-Oh yeah at one point I did about five hours of karaoke while dressed up like an elf, Im not even going to try and explain this one.
-Eighteen year old scotch is delicious
-last but certainly not least making the meal from elf )spaghetti noodles with chocolate sauce, m&ms, snow caps, and pop tarts crunched on top of it, and seriously eating it for dinner, yes it is every six year olds dream and I pulled it off with help from a few friends

I am sure plenty more has happened in the last three weeks and much of it was probably blogworthy but I am tired so I am calling it quits there. Happy Holidays to all.

Welcome to a New England Winter

Attack of the little people






Several comments;
1. the sheer ridiculousness of trying to take pictures that makes people look miniature pretty much sums up my house.
2. Look at Katie in the bottom picture(she is front middle) the scowl on the face mostly sums up her life, mostly
3. We built those sweet ass stairs out of fallen trees, booyah
