It was a slow Labor Day weekend (as it should be)...I arranged for a repair guy to come by today and he put up some temporary repairs to my siding (all I could think of while he was up on my roof was what if he falls?) and I should have a permanent fix in-place next week. Son John keeps calling from college asking "Show me the Money!" but that's the way things are when you have a kid in college...perhaps I'll see his grades this year...anyone want to place bets?
Son Sam played his first football game of the year and had a great game...all his tackles were behind-the-line tackles and nobody got around his end (they won the game 12-0)...he's also a accomplished Natural Selection, CS, DoD, and BF1942 player and age 11 is better than most of those he plays with...sniff-sniff...my son the Jock-Geek.
My Washington Deadskins...ermmm...Redskins...open up on Thursday against the NY Jets...Steve Spurrier is in his sophomore year and I think they'll do OK this year...not Joe Gibs great...but better than Norv and might even get a playoff game if things fall their way. Regardless of their on-field performance it'll will probably be an even more interesting off-field year. It'll be fun watching The Danny make his way.
I played the Call of Duty demo yesterday a few times and it's great...if they get their multi-player code worked out this could be a direct competitor to DoD in that both are small-unit combat operations fps gunners...they set they bar high so we'll have to really work hard to deliver a superior product.
We tested glider the other night on spies.com and those guys did great...the map played well...we actually played for almost 2 hours and I think a minor tweek here...a tweek there and it's done. The map is already in test rotation at Activision but I should be alble to make a few changes prior to release.
