We’re out of rice. How do you run out of rice?

My son, who hated football until about 5 months ago, entered the playoff pool a group of my friends decided to initiate, and blew us all away, scoring 26 points out of a possible 31. That’s 22 points ahead of all of the adults. The moral? Don’t have children.

TheTitans (5-7) beat the Colts (10-2) with the help of the fourth longest field-goal in the history of the NFL. Just before the kick, the entire region got eerily silent, the wind suddenly cranked up from 10 to 25 miles per hour, the kick sailed straight and true, and the wind immediately died back down. In the distance the howl of a lone wolf could be heard. The Colts are still the best team in the NFL, but the Chargers are, uhh, charging.

This morning when it was 73 degrees here, tying a record, it was snowing 150 miles to the east. Some say the world will end in fire, some say in ice.
