UofH Liberty Bowl Bound!

Saturday, December 2nd, 2006

The University of Houston grabbed the Conference USA title yesterday defeating Southern Miss in a 34-20 win. The Coogs outscored Southern Miss 21-3 in the second half in order to clench the victory. The win gives them an automatic Liberty Bowl bid with a team from the SEC conference. Their record is now 10-3, and […]

Photo Blogging is Working… Sort Of

Friday, November 10th, 2006

Been trying to work out some kinks with trying to post Sprint Picture Mail on my blog, and I must say, Sprint is trying to do everything they can to prevent it. Why? I have no idea. They can’t seem to make a regular email with an attachment of the small 2KB photo with it […]

Comments are back!

Friday, November 10th, 2006

Ran into a WordPress plugin while updating that requires the poster to answer a simple math question before a comment is posted, so I am giving comments on this site a second chance :) It should help prevent spammers from posting tons of comments. Don’t get too scared, the questions are really simple addition or […]

MoBlog Test, WordPress Update

Thursday, November 9th, 2006

I have been trying to see about ways to automatically post photos from my Sprint phone to my blog, and it seems that its a little tricky due to the format of Sprint’s PictureMail. I have found a plugin that supposedly does it, but it works on WordPress 2.0, which I have yet to update […]

Robert Gates, A&M President, New US Defense Secretary

Wednesday, November 8th, 2006

Just read this Yahoo News report that mentioned how Donald Rumsfeld is stepping down as Defense Secretary. The possible replacement? Texas A&M’s president Robert Gates, a former CIA Director. Just last week, while visiting my brother, there was an article in Texas Monthly titled “Agent Of Change”, regarding how gates has and is working towards […]

Ags n Coogs Update

Monday, November 6th, 2006

Well, the Aggies’ Coach decided to lose the game this past week versus Oklahoma by not doing what they do best… pound the ball. Late in the fourth quarter, the Aggies had 1st and goal at the 6 yard line, in which a score would put them at a tie. Now Javorski Lane for the […]

RedHeadedLefty On Your Mobile Phone

Wednesday, November 1st, 2006

Yes, I know there are tons of people out there that want to do this (sarcastic), but now that I got a new cell phone with web access, I figured I could mess around with some toys and see if I can get this site to work on a cell phone.
Been trying to get this […]

Ags are Ranked…. finally…

Tuesday, October 17th, 2006

Been a while since the Ags were in the Top 25, but following their win last Saturday over undefeated Missouri, they were able to break back in. They are 6-1, with their only loss being to Texas Tech (by an much hated last second touchdown pass at the end of the game that is still […]

Ags n Coogs Update…

Wednesday, October 4th, 2006

What a crappy weekend. I didnt update this until now because I didn’t feel like reliving those events….
UofH lost to Miami by 1… 14-13…
Aggies lost by a long touchdown pass at the end of the game with only 20 or so seconds to go….
Thats all :(

Ags ‘n Coogs

Tuesday, September 26th, 2006

Well, college football is here, in case you haven’t noticed it, and 4 weeks have passed, and I must say, it started off pretty good. First of all, Notre Dame loses to Michigan, so the announcers don’t have to praise them so much anymore (national champion hopes? puh leeze), and Texas loses to Ohio State […]
