Swampy is back !!!! Like anyone really cares........

I have been so depressed over the final result of the St. Louis weekend that I just couldn't write.........

actually I just had too many meetings and too much work but now I am sitting in my hotel room in Chicago and I am watching Survivor - next week I tape Survivor and WATCH Earl & The Office......

but back to STL......The Arch is a ripoff but I could see the casino from up there......LaClede's Landing has some good little restaurants & bars with one seriously hot buxom bartender in a tattered denim micro-mini at Joey B's - too bad the TV befind her was screwed up and I really wanted to watch the OSU-UT game but considering the outcome I should have stayed at the bar.........The Casino Queen is a dive of a riverboat casino - and I have been on some bad ones - I'm looking at you Lake Charles - but I did win $200 at the Roulette Wheel playing with the pink chips.....I think that the sequined, spray on tanned, 80's hair, mid 30's cougars on the prowl didn't think that swampy was greasy enough for them until they noticed my chips as I got ready to cash out......I had almost the same growth and I did have the same hat on but backwards........Sexual Suspects on Showtime was a horrible movie that wanted to be porn but wasn't - it would have been funnier if it had been........the buffet breakfast at our hotel stunk but we probably should have gotten there a little bit earlier.......the Ed Jones Dome is nothing to write home about but it does have the new turf that almost looks like dirt.......

and onto the football game.......Jake played like he wanted Jay to play - best sight of the weekend was after the game when I met a married couple on the train, the wife wore a Jake jersey and the husband wore a Jay jersey, I am sure that will lead to some interesting conversations in their home but I digress.......Mike Bell, Tatum Bell - doesn't look like it matters....Javon got open but he couldn't catch the ball......did I hint at the fact that Jake sucked ?......the D looked solid - I can't bitch about 6 FG's and No TD's.......kick returns have never been a strong point but you have to get past the 23 yard line.......guess i have no choice but to accept 15-1 this year instead of 16-0.....and now I have been to a game in STL so that is a stadium and a city that is now off the list (not that it had a very high spot on that list to start with).........

I could win Survivor and I could win The Amazing Race.....too bad mortgages don't pay themselves........

Hey Crab Man !!!!

Why hasn't Miranda Lambert made me her friend yet ? I bought her CD as soon as it came out.......Why Ran ? Why ?

the commute has been rougher this week and catching a 6:30 flight this morning just made it tougher......

I finished "A Salty Piece of Land" and I couldn't help but notice how many times Jimmy Buffett usedlines from his songs in his book - I hadn't noticed it in his other books - I guess that this book is the fictional autobiography of Jimmy Buffett - I would love to do that and maybe I will in bits & pieces, in thinks & thunks - Tully Mars is Jimmy and swampy is me.....now go get a boat drink.......

I still say Suri was photoshopped and that Annie Liebovitz sold out......

why is Paris relevant ?

*SPOILER ALERT* - the black tribe just made a big mistake......

LOST starts October 4 and that just is not soon enough.........

Why do I get FHM & Maxim ? I haven't paid for Maxim in years and I have never paid for FHM - I still liked GEAR the best but that is probably because of the Jessica Biel nipple slip and the Brandi Chastain soccer ball shot but I digress again - the articles in both suck and this month the chicks in FHM were ugly until we got to the Hometown Honey section - oh and the "She's Your Sister" shot though at 20 years old I felt dirty looking at her - almost.........

The Casino Queen made me miss Vegas and the potential that every weekend there has........
the longer I sit here the more likely I am to order room service even though there is nothing on the menu that I really want........I just looked again and nothing appeals to me but I will have to find something........

quietly making noise - swampy abides........
