Dependable Erection

Random thoughts on a Sunday morning

New city manager Tom Bonfield seemed to be having a good time at the final Warehouse Blues show on Friday evening. If you did too, don't forget to let City Council know, so they can make sure the series continues to be funded next year.

The Gambian team sure looked great marching into the Olympic stadium the other night. I didn't see all of the teams, but those blue robes were awesome. Bob Costas, on the other hand. I don't know if he thinks he's Dick Clark or what, but something about that hair just doesn't seem, you know, right.

Collapsible rain barrels. Sounds good in the abstract. In reality? Not so much.

English football is back. The season is underway right now with the Community Shield, a charity event featuring the League champion Man U. v the FA Cup winners Portsmouth FC. Another in the continuing rivalry of red v blue. I've got 6 more days to fine tune my fantasy team. Stay tuned for updates.

  • What happened to your collapsible rain barrel? No problems with mine so far. Much better than the series of buckets I was using!

  • They collapsed.

    Maybe i didn't set them up properly? The instructions were somewhat lacking in detail, but i didn't have any parts left over, and they looked kinda like the photo when i was finished. As soon as the water started running out of the down spouts, though, flat on the ground.
