    The Dumbest Comment I Ever Heard

    Went fishing this past Friday and while enjoying a tall Bloody Mary at Red Rocks Grill, this guy walks up to the table and says, "Geez, I know who you look like ... Vince Lombardi!!!" I suppose the only thing I found dumb about his comment lies in the fact that I'm a Chicago Bears fan, but...

    Your Favorite Band of Brothers Episode

    Indeed! 'Band of Brothers Suite Two' (third track) does me in every time I listen to it ... the soundtrack to Saving Private Ryan is yet another keeper.

    Your Favorite Band of Brothers Episode
