This is an ode to one of my bro's. As long as I can remeber two things have been a constant in the world of Football. The Indianapolis Colts have gotten no love, and my bro (I use that term in the white friend vain) has been a Colt fan. It goes back way to the days of Freshman year at SJSU taking the light rail to school. EVERY DAY I'd hear about the Colts. Well, after a while you start feel for the guy, and this year...well, giddyup.
SO... pics of Super Bowl Sunday with the gang. BTW, Domenic is the crazy Colt fan. Congrats!

Floating Steve
It's been way to long since I posted the doings of Steve to the Nation.
Stevie G's defintely been busy with a kitchen remodel and such. Anyhow, thought I'd post a shot of torso Steve. No photoshop, just MAGIC!. Well, actually you can figure it out from the pics. BUT, did finaly get our new kitchen counters installed. However the new kitchen counters still don't clean themselves. bummer.

The World Famous Nation
This is posting is part musing and part gloating...
While I was in New York on my honeymoon, I visited a very understated pizza joint called "Orignal Ray's". Now regardless if you've heard of this pizza place before, plastered on virtually ever sign was "World Famous!". After that, I notice many other "World Famous" rankings of various sorts which I've never heard of before. This brings me to my musing at hand: How does Ray know he is world famous?
Seems there's a lot of World Famous floating around, and no governing body to properly distribute these rankings. Am I supposed to assume there is a flyer posted some where on a Bangladesh bulletin board for New York Ray's Pizzeria? Joe Bangladesh walking by the flyer every morning with his Starbucks thinks "some day..."
Is it expected that people burst through the doors of said understated pizzeria taking pictures exclaiming... I made it to Rays! Didn't happen while I was ordering my slice of flat and old pepperoni. And, what exactly is Ray famous for? His oversized cockroaches actually know how to spin the pizza dough? Seems something amiss in these rakings which the Nation cries afoul.
So, this story brings me to about an hour ago, when Steve Nation when to check his site usage stat's. See that little "site meter" icon on the right side of this page, down a bit? It's a little guy that tracks who visits my site. (rest assured, your identity is safe. It only tracks general info.)The Nation figured it'd be a cool little tool. Low and behold, check out the map of computers that visited the Steve Nation over the last month.
Observe all the dots? That represents people; people who live on planet earth. What da ya know. Steve Nation is World Famous!! And that my friends, is the rest of the story :)
And to that I say Thanks! Cheers! Gracias! Salamat! (in Filipino) and for that guy way there in Canada.. dude, you gotta move.

Back from Germany
Alissa and I are back from our German adventure. A couple observations about our trip:
1. The Autobahn's are a crazy place... say out of the fast lane.
2. Germans love their street entertainers. Anybody doing something on the curb had huge crowds around them.
3. Beer is the same price as soda. Now that's clever!
4. The only TV stations in English were German MTV and CNN. As such I watched more music videos than ever before. I've got some wicked Justin Timberlake moves I'm itchin' to try out.
5. Through the German "mass-marketing music engine", I did got hooked on this German band. Their hit song (which plays on the link provide) was everywhere, and sadly I fell for it. Get out of my head song!!!
Anyhow, enjoy the pics as you get wisped away to a magical place; a Germany only the Steve Nation can provide! :)

Another Trip for Steve Nation!
Just a heads up that steve nation is headed to Germany again for another week starting this Friday. This time thought I'll be bringing my lovely wife, and we should have some time on the weekends to catch some sites. I'll try to post any fun tidbits I find along the way. Make sure to keep the lights on for us when we get back! Cheers!

Rant for the Day
It may just be me, but what's up with people who walk around with Bluetooth Headsets on all the time 24/7? Using them while you have to talk on the phone is OK I guess, but to leave them there ALL the time? Are they supposed to be half man, half robotic communication device? Is the future now?
I just don't get it. This guy at the gym last night had a headset on and was talking on it while he worked out. He was gabbing away for like 30 minutes in between grunts and groans. Would've loved to be on the other end of that conversation.
Of course I don't currently own a Bluetooth headset, but don't expect me to rush out anytime soon. Perhaps it's the whole cell phone reaction of years past. Like when cell phones first came out, and people are all "Who's this joker walking around in public talking on a phone... thinkin' he's all cool and popular".
Perhaps that's the feeling I'm getting right now with Bluetooth headsets, but I just don't think I'm ready for half men half cyborg yet.
