Favre's on Letterman, and In The Game!

Last Thursday night, Brett made an appearance on the the Late Show with Dave Letterman on CBS. It was awesome! Here's his interview in case you missed it!



Was that the best Late Show or what?!?! Shucks I sure do love that guy. And in case you missed it, at the end of the clip, Letterman showed the cover for the new Madden NFL 09 video game with Brett Favre as the cover athlete! What an awesome tribute to a true legend of the game.

Here's an interview that IGN.com (a video game website) had with Brett...



And for good measure, the first gameplay video of Madden 09, which ends with Brett throwing a touchdown! (Could it really end any other way? I mean honestly...)



If I can't watch Brett play anymore, I'll at least get to play as him on Madden! The game comes out August 12th, so let the countdown begin!!

Finals or Kodison's Parenting Skills... Which are worse?

A family-friend of Megs' went out of town for a few days last week, and asked us to house sit for them while they were four-wheeling in Moab. They have four kids, but the only two that we really had to be mindful of was their 12 year-old son and 10 year-old daughter. By the time we came home Saturday night after the parents came back, I was pooped. Props to you Mom and Dad. I don't know how you did it for all those years; and for all the late nights, laundry and who-knows-what-else...

I'm so sorry.

Granted, while sometimes in the heat of the moment I thought to myself "whoa, I'm not ready for parenthood", it was really a piece-of-cake as the kids were all pretty chill and fun, especially when compared to what us eight kids (myself being public enemy no. 1) put Mom and Dad through. Again...

I'm so sorry.

With the end of our house-sitting excursion comes the start of a more-stressful and yes, time-consuming challenge... Finals Week. I took my first final yesterday (Statistics for Economists) and it was rough. I think I did pretty well, but I sure had to earn it. I decided to take a break from my studying today to blog and refresh my mind for my exam today and my three final finals tomorrow. Hopefully I'll "Be Like Mike" and come through in the clutch to rally all of those exams to finish the semester.

As most of you have been through final exams in the past or present and many of you have witnessed my parenting-skills (or lack thereof), I'll let you be the judge...

What are worse, Finals or Kodison's Parenting Skills?

I might call it a draw for now, but check back with me tomorrow night after 9 straight hours of exams and I'm sure I'll have a sharply jaded opinion on the matter.
