			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>After being really pumped at the beginning of the season, I&#8217;m completely deflated after this past weekend.  The season started for me to be the first season in which I was actually rooting for 2 teams.  I&#8217;ve been a life-long Packers fan and will continue to be regardless of the direction they take in the coming years.  I also became a huge Brett Favre fan over the years he played, so I was really rooting for him and the Jets as well.  The Pack seemed to be pretty sturdy at the beginning of the season even without Brett, but after the defeat by Dallas they just fell apart.  They were still a good team, but they seemed to lose the swagger after that loss and didn&#8217;t have the confidence to finish games.  The Jets didn&#8217;t start out great but started looking great in the middle of the season.  Their wins over the Titans and the Pats made them look like serious contenders, but after that it was like a completely different coaching staff was calling the games.  They didn&#8217;t do anything right.  They didn&#8217;t run, they didn&#8217;t rush the passer, they didn&#8217;t stop the run&#8230;</p>
<p>The end of the regular season brought it&#8217;s misery with the Jets just missing out and the Pack being set for watching from home for weeks now.  But I still had some teams I was at least interested in watching.  I think the fact that the Dolphins were actually acting like men playing a GAME and having fun with it was exciting.  Since the Jets weren&#8217;t going, I figured I&#8217;d root for Miami.  There was also the Colts, who I&#8217;m no huge fan of, but my wife really likes them so we were kind of pulling for them too.  Especially if it could mean watching Peyton beating down his stuck-up little brother&#8230;  <img src='http://augiewan.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>So yeah, the first week of the playoffs has come and gone.  Fish got killed, Colts forgot to show up against an inferior team, and here&#8217;s what we have&#8230;</p>
<p><strong>Baltimore Ravens at Tennessee Titans</strong><br />
Yawn&#8230;   I can&#8217;t think of a game better suited to put me to sleep&#8230;</p>
<p><strong>Arizona Cardinals at Carolina Panthers</strong><br />
This will likely be good game and I&#8217;ll root for the Cardinals.  I like Fitzgerald and I&#8217;d like to see James get one more crack at it after the Colts did him SO wrong a few years back&#8230;</p>
<p><strong>Philadelphia Eagles at New York Giants</strong><br />
Hmmm&#8230;.   Two teams I can&#8217;t stand at all.  Hope they beat the living snot out of each other&#8230;  </p>
<p><strong>San Diego Chargers at Pittsburgh Steelers</strong><br />
Did I say I couldn&#8217;t stand the last two?  Well I HATE the bolts and their cocky QB Phillip Rivers, so I guess I&#8217;m pulling for the Steelers in this one.</p>
<p>So as little interest as I have in any of these, that&#8217;s where I stand on those games.  I&#8217;ll likely skip the games this coming weekend and read a good book.  We&#8217;ll see what we end up with whether I actually watch the SuperBowl&#8230;</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I really hate the wait between football seasons because it happens to be the only sport I care to watch.  It&#8217;s even a harder wait when there&#8217;s so much in the air regarding your team.  My Packers for instance have been on a major roller coaster for the past few years.  After a long run of success, they sank to a very forgettable 4 wins in 2005, rose to a so-so even wins &amp; losses in 2006, to an overtime field-goal loss away from making it to the Super Bowl in 2007.  It would have been really nice to have watch MY team beat the New England Cheaters, er&#8230;  I mean Patriots&#8230;</p>
<p>But here the Packer fans sit, waiting and wondering if Aaron Rodgers will be able to carry on the winning ways that the Packers regained during the last year of the Brett Favre era.  I think he&#8217;ll do well as long as he doesn&#8217;t go and get hurt again.  He&#8217;s been with the team long enough to know the system and he showed that he could play well in last year&#8217;s game against Dallas. We&#8217;ll see&#8230;</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>So here I am waiting for a report to run at work and I have a decision to make.  Take a few minutes to write up a quick post to my ever-neglected blog, or clean my desk.  It&#8217;s obvious by the fact that you&#8217;re reading this that my desk remains cluttered&#8230;</p>
<p>I&#8217;ve been torn recently because this blog has a split personality.  I love talking about geeky things like toys, comics, etc, but I also love updating friends and family on what&#8217;s going on with everyday life and sharing family pictures.  Unfortunately, I don&#8217;t&#8217; think many of my family members are interested in the latest <a href="http://ubfunkeys.thespeakeasy.com/" title="Funkeys">U.B.Funkeys</a> figure I found or what comic I just enjoyed reading.  On the flip, I don&#8217;t think the people finding my site by searching on <a href="http://augiewan.com/augiewans-art/sculpture-gallery/eric-the-blob-from-invader-zim/" title="Eric the Blob">Custom Invader Zim Figures</a> are all that pumped to see a gallery on my kids bowling.</p>
<p>I think what I&#8217;m going to do is free the two from their bonds.  Augiewan.com will remain my more personal &#8220;family &amp; friends&#8221; oriented blog and <a href="http://www.thespeakeasy.com/" title="theSpeakEasy" target="_blank">theSpeakeasy.com</a> (a domain I&#8217;ve wanted to utilize for quite a few years now) will become my &#8220;geek&#8221; blog.  Sound good?  Speak now or forever hold your peace!</p>
<p>OK, so I forgot about this post I started and now it&#8217;s time to go home.  So here are a few proud pics of my evolving new office&#8230;</p>
<p>First, a shot of one wall in my ever-evolving office.  Proudly displayed in the middle is my Invader Zim poster.  Below is my small Green Bay Packers display.  GO PACK!  To the right you can see some figures which include Hitchhiker&#8217;s Guide to the Galaxy characters, Edward Scissorhands, and Smiley Bone in a cow suit.  To the left we have some of the guys from Cartoon Planet and Rogue from the X-Men movie.</p>
<p><img src="http://augiewan.com/wp-content/uploads/2007/10/office-windows.jpg" alt="Invader Zim Poster and More…" /></p>
<p>And lastly, we have my brand spankin&#8217; new white board, just hung on the wall today.  Tomorrow, I leave on a training trip so I needed to leave something on the board.  I think Zim fills it nicely&#8230;  <img src='http://augiewan.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p><img src="http://augiewan.com/wp-content/uploads/2007/10/zim-whiteboard.jpg" alt="I am Zim!" /></p>
<p>Booyah, and have a nice day&#8230;</p>
