I'm back up and running after a 9 day blackout here in the greater Hartford area.
Four line crews came barreling in around 8pm Sunday night (our power went out the previous Saturday at 11:45pm) looking to do some work - FINALLY!! Twenty minutes later, power (and order) was restored. They sent two buckets up the pole, took out a fuse, put in a new one, pushed it into place and POW - power.
I went inside and did a little dance. You think having power for a day or two sucks, ha. You have no idea. We stayed at 7 different places over the course of the blackout. SEVEN! Talk about a whirlwind.
What turned out to be the biggest story since power has been restored? Well I'll tell you Kris Humphries and Kim Kardashian are thrilled it ain't them - it's a sex scandal at Penn State.
Joe Paterno is out. The athletic director is out. The president is out. What a shitstorm this whole thing is and it totally tarnished a brilliant coaching career by a man with 409 victories - more than anyone else in the history of college football? (besides John Gagliardi).
Truth be told, he didn't say something eleven years ago - which is dispicable a damn shame. He could have ended this whole thing back then but chose not to - terrible judgement on his part.
Jerry Sandusky is a piece of shit and should rot in hell (or jail) for the rest of his life. Joe Paterno - he'll live in his own jail for the rest of his life knowing he could have done something but didn't.
I cannot believe this story. It has nothing to do with sports and for those of you trying to make it a sports story are mistaken - this is a sick and twisted sex scandal created by a man in a power position - assistant football coach for the Penn State Nittany Lions. He was often seen with 10- or 11-year-olds at bowl games, camps, practices - and no one saw any issues with this? Oh that's right, he had his "Second Mile" program - basically a recruiting tool to feed his child-sex habit. I am going to puke talking about this anymore, so I am done.
Just like Penn State football and Joe Paterno's reputation.
They're shredding trees outside making me think that this nap I just put Nolan down for is going to be short lived.

Hey Brother, Welcome Back!
You cab imagine I had a few choice opinions about that f**king minster Sandusky, the gutless coward McQueary and Paterno and everyone else looking the other way. You are right...this is NO sports story...it's a human TRAGEDY is what it is.
How could the GA Coach McQueary who is like 6'4" 225lbs walk in the shower and see that animal on top of that 10 year old boy and turn around and WALK AWAY?! To do what...call the cops? NO...call his DAD and then leave the building! That isn't a crime but it's Immoral is what it is. Ryan I can only imagine the can of whoop ass you would have put on ANYONE sodomizing a young boy in the showers at Manhattan...you probably would have killed him as would have I. I KNOW that I would not have left the BOY there. Makes me fraking sick!
Both the entire situation and those idiot students rioting disgust me.
