Ahh, the sweet glory. Fourteen years in the making, the Buckeyes have made everyone proud once again to be a Buckeye. Hail to the… opps, wrong school.

Bellisari, part 2
Well if you haven’t heard already, here is the latest bit of good news for us Buckeye fans. My confindence was finally being restored in the oft’ booed #8 but that all went down the crapper. McMullen my take us to the promised land but I’m not holding my breath. He is untested. Two weeks ago I would have cheered at the prospect of not seeing Steve at the helm. Now I’m not so sure. I thought we had a chance against Illinois. I’m not saying we still don’t because you will never hear me say a disparaging word about my Buckeyes but I think Steve’s absence will be noticed. Did I just say that?
On a lighter note, I’ve been using the peer-to-peer file sharing program KaZaA looking for the MTV commercials with the taxi driver guy. If anyone knows where i can find these commercials (I think they were the best MTV commercials ever) let me know.

Pizza’s on its way
I got some coupons in the mail today (nothing big there) but one of them was from Pizza Hut, touting their ‘order online’ trial going on in Columbus. I know that Papa John’s has been doing online ordering for about six months now, along with other food establishments on the web. That is nothing out of the ordinary. It’s actually quite convenient. But what strikes ME as odd is the resemblence to a paper I wrote five years ago for my English 101 class at Cleveland State. In it, I predicted that there would come a time that the web would evolve to the point that if a person didn’t want to, he wouldn’t have to leave his (or her) computer desk. I compared it to the futuristic cartoon “The Jetsons.” I’m not saying I’m some visionary, I just like to toot my own horn. I have seen a lot of business ideas that I have had come to pass during the internet boom. I had the wacky idea of starting a grocery delivery service, as witnessed here and here that someone beat me to. Unfortunately, the idea hasn’t been kind to Pea Pod. If I find the paper, I’ll post it here. I sometimes dream of being a writer. The paper isn’t that great, but my literary skills have improved since then.
I also finally got around to adding a bunch more links. Hopefully they’ll be more to come.
