A happening weekend: some good, some bad, some sad.

The good news is that we're home again, probably a few pounds heavier than when we left, but we'll work on that later this week.

The bad news is that FlashForward, one of our favorite shows on TV at the moment, got canceled by ABC.

The sad news is that Ronnie James Dio passed away over the weekend. For people who have no clue who Dio is, he was the lead singer for legendary rock bands such as Rainbow, Black Sabbath, Dio and most recently Heaven & Hell, a reunited Black Sabbath under an alternate name. Dio, who made the throwing horns \m/ gesture popular among metal fans, passed away at the age of 67 after a six-month battle with stomach cancer.

Two BBQs in 12 hours: totally awesome. Unfortunately, the main BBQ, the reason why we drove four hours, was very weak. Häagen Dazs' 25-year celebration of the facility was disappointing, but luckily, we got a tour of the plant and plenty of actual ice cream, so I guess it wasn't a total waste of time.

Later today, we are driving back home, with perhaps a pit stop at Sonic, a drive-in fast food joint that we've never been to.

Some news to report from the world of CrimeCraft: The first $1,200 all-cash tournament was won by yours truly, the WP gang. Too bad I could not participate in person, being on this trip and all, but my gang members made me proud and took the top prize!

Somewhere Out There Is The Beast And He's Hungry Tonight

One BBQ down, one to go. Boy, am I stuffed! It seems that eating is on the agenda for the weekend, as we'll have a nice hot breakfast tomorrow morning and then BBQ for lunch. Someone suggested having even more BBQ for dinner tomorrow. Now, BBQs are my favorite meal and all, but by tomorrow night, I'll be ready for a salad or an apple. I know, sacrilege!
