I love when two of my favorite things come together – peanut butter and jelly, chicken wings and beer, television and the Internet.
That last one has brought good and bad things lately. The good part involves my discovery of Hulu.
For the uninitiated, Hulu is a website where you can find full episodes of many television shows, mostly from NBC and Comedy Central. Since I generally eat lunch at my desk now, this service has made me very happy.
In my younger days, I had quite a temper. A combination of overcompensating for my small stature and growing up with four older brothers brought about this condition.
I was not out of control, but I had a few fights at school, especially around junior high.
Nothing profound really changed things. I did start to have some success in wrestling and channeled my energy there. But at some point, I pretty much stopped lashing out.
I thought of all this last week as we went to an event to celebrate the birthday or a good friend. He had arranged for a group to attend a dinner at a local fire hall.
