Poinsettia Bowl 2008



This is a snap from Peters seats. 45 yard line. Not to shabby, but see below why I settled for seats farther back.






TCU vs Boise St. with TCU squeaking out a win in the last two min.




We also had some tix for the Qualcomm box suite, so caught most the game up there. It was help yourself to the fridge.

Off the sidelines!

Well with all the turmoil were are hearing about in the markets, it may seem like a bad time to dabble in speculating. It probably is...
But, cash is king right now, and so with that, I opened a brokerage account last week to try my hand.
Ameritrade, with a month of free trades. Once that goes away, it's going to force me to pick longer term positions to cover my service costs since my investment size is still junior league.

fat dog - USC game




Saw this dog at one of the home games. Tried getting a shot with better perspective, but the dog was not standing, and everyone was kneeling down. Anyway, it was cool in person, and thought it was something fun.
