Starting to record audio books by others as a hobby (and a bit of moolah). Wish me luck!

It takes a man 15 seconds to pack for a trip; 32 seconds if he has to find clean underwear

FYI-- my total for picking NFL winners was 67.84%, the exact same as that of ESPN's number one analyst, Tom Jackson. Home field advantage over the past decade has been 57%. So this means anyone can pick these games as long as he or she leans towards home field advantage.

Home field advantage in the NFL and final tally NFL picks

Only counting the regular season of the NFL, after 17 weeks, I pucked the winners 67.84% of the time, 173-255. According to "Home field advantage in the NFL" by SportsData, home field wins 57.2% of the time, for the last decade. That statistic is almost exactly the same as the one provided by Stephen J. Dinner in his article from NFL.com "Standing behind the home team." He gives it at 57.3%, which sounds like it includes a lengthier span than a decade, but with two statistics like that being with a tenth of a percent, these figures seem extremely reliable. That translates to picking the winner about 145 times, compared with my 173. What does this tell us? Home field is important. Also, anybody can pick NFL games as long as they lead toward home field advantage, as long as when they pick they don't go against home field unless they have a strong conclusion otherwise--like pucking against the Oakland Raiders or Tampa Bay Buccaneers this year. Or even against my

Ok I have to officially quote Madison Butcher--that's why when I go to the prom I'm probably just going to wear jeans and a long sleeve T-shirt.

Worthy addition for Sleepy Hollow fans

Image
Most media tie-in books are rather boring. I'm one that wants all the additional adventures, thoughts, feelings of characters that I love. I have read tons of other books for other franchises, especially with "Star" in the title and have most times come away bewildered and disappointed. But for every five or so that I read, I come across a real gem. Luckily, I hit on a gem straight out of the box for Fox's Sleepy Hollow series: The Secret Journal of Ichabod Crane by Alexander Irvine. Written in diary form, it goes along with the show, especially the first season, giving extra tidbits and thoughts about the strange things that happen to our Rip Van Winkle character named Ichabod Crane. There are many additions, sort of like a scrapbook of extra articles and findings. I wish I had adventures like this. It's a wonderful dive into the mind of the main character. This is a wonderful addition if you are a fan of the show. I remember especially, way back when, Twin
