Creed - "Torn" (from My Own Prison, 1997)

Creed - "What If" (from Human Clay, 1999)

I know they get a bad rap, but I really loved them in their prime. The first two albums were pretty incredible, and they were also VERY good live when I saw them in '99 in San Antonio. It was the Joe & Harry Freeman Coliseum, and it was up close & personal - very well done.
Although their 3rd album, Weathered, seemed significantly less creative -and much more commercial- I really enjoyed their 4th release, and most recent album Full Circle.. released 10 years after Human Clay in 2009.
These two are without a doubt my two favorite Creed tunes. There are many more, though. Mark Tremonti, currently with Alter Bridge is an amazing song writer, and wizard on the axe.

Separated Mop Water Bucket
~another entry from the "Why didn't I think of that" file.

It is for this reason that I usually rinse off the mop in hot water in the sink before putting it back into the mop water. I'd love to have a bucket like this. You know, I have dogs, and stuff.

The Rattlesnake We Found a Few Nights Ago (OC)
Before:
After:
Mine (Click 'em to enlarge!)
It was about 2 feet long, and as big around as my thumb.. 4 little rattles. I was watering at 11pm, with a little flashlight (NEVER AGAIN), and one of those little green lizards caught my eye on the plant just nearer to me than the one I was watering. Down on the ground I saw the snake slither by, back next to the outside of the garage door, and I almost had a heart attack. It took us about 45 minutes, but we finally figured out a way to get it into an easy enough position to kill it. That method was the wife beating it repeatedly with the flat of a broom. (Thinking back it was rather comical..) After she had it stunned quite a bit, I was able to get close enough to chop it hard behind the head, with a flat-edge shovel.. We don't have a hoe.
And no, I don't live out in the country! This is the first one I've ever found at this house, and I've lived here 11+ years. Many have been found nearby - where my Mom lives, and where my sister lives - but first one here. It's also the first one I've had to deal with. I hope we can go another 10 years before seeing one again!

Interesting Jordan/LeBron Comparison
The shaded area is obviously still to be determined by LeBron James. What's cool about this is when you look at each's career together like this, you realize not only that LeBron has a hell of a lot left to achieve, but that it took Jordan a little longer to "get going" than most of us probably remember!
Back to the Grindstone! (OC)
