Great day today. The day started perfectly - I slept in. Got to enjoy some leisure time with a book for a while this morning, then, I got a phone call from my friend Paul Magee. I had not seen Paul since he was the best man in my wedding over 5 years ago. I lost his contact info, but I recently reconnected with Paul through Facebook. I was planning on calling him at some point in the day, but he beat me to the punch. We started talking about getting together sometime soon, and he suggested today - I love this kind of spontaneity! Sooooo, Paul made the drive from Cary, and Lisa & I went to dinner with him at Elizabeth's Pizza, and then we had coffee back at our place. I couldn't have asked for a better Saturday :) (pic posted on my Facebook page)

"Fall Update" - LOL... Funny how I haven't posted anything since May. Well, Lisa is now 25 weeks along, so only 2 weeks away from entering her third trimester. Since the last post, we've found out that we're having a girl, and we're going to name her Kaylee Marie Ziarnik. It's finally setting in for me that I am going to be a father . Its exciting and scary at the same time. Fortunately, a lot of the big items we'll need are taken care of - my folks bought a crib & dresser for us this summer. Also, we were able to find an affordable glider/ottoman combo @ Target. One of Lisa's co-workers sold us her Graco stroller for $50. We've picked up some other great stuff at consignment sales & through Craigslist. Due to Lisa being so far along in the pregnancy, I've had to pitch in on more of the housework than normal, so I've had less time to be involved in the 360Voice forum community. Less time to game as well, but I actually haven't missed gaming as much ...

Wow. Great 2 hour finale. I must say though, JJ Abrams has done it again. He has once again left us all hanging with more questions than we have answers. We finally have the answer to who was in the casket from the Season 3 finale - Locke. Now I'm wondering why there was a different name on the casket? How/why was Locke back in the US? Wasn't he supposed to be the new leader on the island? It was never explained to the viewers exactly how it is that Benjamin Linus went from being deep below ground on the island to being in the desert in the Middle East either. Or how he (Ben) plans to bring Jack & co. (as well as the late John Locke) back to the island... Or WHY he wants to bring them back to the island. IS Hurley really crazy, or is it all just a part of the coverup act? Why would Sun want to help Charles Widmore in any manner? Obviously there's more to Charlotte than what Abrams is letting us know right now. I guess the same could be said of Miles as ...

Just going to post some of my thoughts as I watch the game tonight. I notice that Pittsburgh has replaced Kris Letang with Darryl Sydor on the blueline tonight. Sydor brings the experience of having won 2 Stanley Cups, and can provide some great outlet passes from the back end, but somehow I don't see this lineup change as having a huge impact on the team right now. What the Penguins really need right now is a stellar performance from Marc-Andre Fleury. He needs to steal a game for them if they are to have any chance at getting back into this series. Times posted are according to time remaining in each period. 1st Period: (12:05, 1st period) No goals yet but this is looking exciting so far. Pittsburgh really is showing some desperation, as well they should be. Ozzie has already had to make 1 decent save. Shots are 4-1 Detroit. (8:25, 1st period) Mike Emrick (NBC announcer) states that Detroit's defenseman Brad Stuart is currently the leading scorer in the series with ...
