A Greater Than Desirable Day

All in all, it's been a pretty good day.

I had the chance to eat some awesome barbecue at Wabash BBQ. It' s a little hole-in-the-wall BBQ joint about 30 minutes outside of Kansas City in rural Missouri. The pictures on the web site make it look like a "classy" establishment. I assure you, it's just as dodgy as any other good BBQ joint, but the food is just as good. I would highly recommend the brisket, althouth the pork was quite tasty as well.

I got finished up with this week's work a little ahead of time, allowing me to bump up my flight tomorrow and hopefully be back home at a reasonable time. It's always nice when you go into a week of "unknown" work and end up with a hard-fought success. It certainly makes the job rewarding.

I cought a flick tonight: Wild Hogs. The movie isn't going to win any awards, but it was funny to see the mix of actors/actresses working together, and Marissa Tomei is never hard to watch. There were some hilarious scenes, especially during the credits. John McGinley is a comedic rock star!

And..., as probably the best thing that happened today... Steve Alford is leaving the University of Iowa to coach at..., well..., I don't really care, so long as he's not at the U. of I. any more. Good riddance! Now maybe I can start enjoying basketball again!
