Snow and sidewalks

Is it really that difficult people to shovel your sidewalk? I believe it is a law but I could be wrong. In the crazed world known as Chicagoland, people drive like crazed maniacs. When I go out for a run I like to stay alive to finish my run. To help me achieve that task I like to run on sidewalks. Running through snow is not fun. Please shovel your sidewalk. Thanks!

Back on the horse....

I need to set things straight, I do not ride a horse nor do I plan on ever riding a horse. That title was a figure of speech. I intended it to mean that I am getting back into blogging. For the last month or so I have been attempting to find a story worthy of my so faithful readers. It has been a struggle. I believe I have finally found a topic that I am good at....complaining. I am not sure that I should admit this, but Jim Rome is my inspiration. I guess I could use Jim Rome as an entire entry and complain about him but I won't. On his television show "Rome is Burning" he has a segment devoted to complaining about something that occurred in sports. I am going to call my segment, "You Annoy Me."
For my first installment I want to focus on a couple television commercials. The people in the Olive Garden commercials annoy me. If I ever saw people act they way they do in a real restaurant I might be tempted to throw food at them. They are loud and obnoxious. YOU ANNOY ME!

Jared The Galleria of Jewelry, might be the worse. If I ever find that special someone that I want to marry, I will not go to your store. And if I did, and she went to her friends and family and told them of our engagement by saying, "He went to Jared." The engagement would be off. Seriously, I have no proof of this, but I am sure your diamonds do not sparkle more than others. Nor do we need to be bombarded with your lame commercials. YOU ANNOY ME!
