Same kind of sweat pants (my soccer ones from high school), same college on the shirt (WVU baby, it was game day), and almost the same style of laptop!
What can I say we were made for one another! 🙂

Turkey Day has come and passed and so has another milestone: the 5 year anniversary of epp6.com!
Crazy to think that I have owned this domain (website) for 5 years now. I have moved it around from time to time when service providers get lame or crappy but it has stuck through and lasted longer than I had really thought when I first bought it.
Five years ago on a Thanksgiving night I was bored and wanting something fun to do, so I did what I had always wanted to do and that was buy a website to call my own. Not have some site at the end of a long chain at geocities (remember the geocities.com/something/whatever/yournamehere pages?)…I also didn’t want a website full of pop-up ads and random junk that those providers put on their pages (ever noticed the lack of ads here?).
As time passed some things on this site have gone too. My updating and rambling had been hit or miss but this website has toughed through it. I still hope that it continues to do so through the next 5 years.
Thank you to those who read this and check up on it. Its another home for me to go to (so to speak) when I am bored. Again, thank you.
Hard to believe the holidays are already here. Its all good though, means lots of good things. I have already started my annual holiday movie watching. I went out and bought a few holiday classics and even got to go see Fred Claus today (very good I think for a holiday flick).
Turkey day is this week, which also means some shorten weeks for some. Not really for me, the nature of my job and of my field really in journalism means I don’t get holidays off all the time. I do get Thanksgiving off but unlike most people I don’t get the day after off or really even the day before. Its all good though since we shouldn’t be busy at all right now at work. An auto show just ended so we might even be slow until next year (weird to say that already) when the Detroit show hits.
Another cool thing about this week is this website. I won’t be unrolling any new design or anything special but this site will be celebrating its 5th birthday on Thanksgiving. Yup, just five short years ago I decided to open this site on a Thanksgiving night, things were a lot different back then but not a whole lot has really changed over the years.
That’s a bit of what is going on in my neck of the woods this week. Hopefully I will be able to look back at the last few years of this website this week too. Kinda weird to think that I have owned this site for that long already. Not a bad investment I will say. Something I definitely plan on keeping open for years to come if I can help it.
Just thought of another couple potential Christmas items that I wouldn’t mind having.
- 30 Rock (season 1)
- new WVU hoodie
- a new WVU soccer shirt (if they have made any recently)
- a new WVU football shirt
That is all for now…I know it is only a couple things but ideas are ideas. The more the better I guess for everyone to have options.
I know its a little more than a month away but I felt like posting some items that I know I am wanting for Christmas this year.
- Nintendo Wii
- Extra game remote
- Play (group of games)
- FIFA 08
- External Hard Drive (either 750 GB or 1 TB)
- (Maybe) Bluetooth for iPhone….either Jawbreak or Apple Bluetooth
- The Office (Season 3)
Seinfeld (Season 9…I think it is 9, either way its the last season)- My Name Is Earl (Season 2)
This is my list for now…things will change, probably because I will get/download some of the shows I want on DVD.
The Wii will probably come from Becca, we both know what we are getting each other this year (she’s getting a iPod).
UPDATE: Do not worry about the latest season of Seinfeld, I had a very nice coupon to Barnes and Noble and I picked up that copy.
Enough said huh? Kinda funny but kinda stupid at the same time.
I will admit, I kind of wanted to see it happen. A comedian, someone who pokes-fun of the political process, to run and win a presidential campaign. Not because of the state we are in but because it would be interesting to see someone with a staff of witty writers go to the White House and help a President deal with whatever it is he deals with on a daily basis.
Yes, Comedy Central’s Stephen Colbert won’t be the next President of the United States but it does make me wonder what would be worse these days? A lady that most hate? A black man that no one really knows? A guy that helped out in the 9/11 craziness? I don’t really know.
I am still waiting on the day that we vote for a guy (or gal) that isn’t associated with either Republican or Democrats. That will be the day I think that really shows that enough people have woken up in American to show that they really care about the government and what goes on in Washington. We get screwed more times than not by our leaders but we never seem to do enough about it though.
The dream for Colbert was fun, his shows were more interesting during his time of ‘campaigning’. My vote is still very much undecided at the moment for 2008, and that isn’t a bad thing at all I guess right now.
