John's Adventures

Saturday started out with some electrical work for Mom and Dad. A light fixture on the back of the house (outside) needed to be replaced. The new fixture is bigger then the old one so I needed to replace the mounting block on the siding as well. No big deal though, just a trip to a store and a few extra minutes removing the old and installing the new.

After this I drove up to Baltimore for a Boozehounds football game. This was to be a real test for the team. Stats guy Mike had the 'hounds ranked 28th and our opponenets 12th. The first half was interesting. We ran out of time before the half time whistle and left the field down by a score of 12- 20.

The second half was a different story. We came out and went down the field and scored to tie the game. Then we forced them to turn the ball over on downs. Then we exchanged interceptions (Brian had his first of two). We converted this interception into another touchdown to take a 28 - 20 lead. They got the ball back but this drive was stopped by Brian grabbing another interception. A 28 - 20 win to just about ensure a spot in the playoffs.

Of course we celebrated our victory in good Boozehounds style. The first stop was Geckos for food and Margueritas. Then we cleaned up a bit and met again at Castaway's for more Margueritas. Next stop was Mahaffeys for beer, shots, and car bombs (I guess every time I go to Mahaffeys it means I'll be drinking car bombs).
