2. Considering the seemingly unprecedented rash of missed extra points and other seismic choke-jobs by kickers, there may not be a more valuable player in the country than Ohio State’s Mike Nugent. A week after hitting the game-winning, 55-yard field goal to beat Marshall, Nugent went 5-for-5 (from 50, 47, 46, 33 and 30 yards) on a soaking-wet field in the Buckeyes’ 22-14 win over N.C. State. Nugent has been doing this for three years now, earning All-America honors in 2002 when he hit 25 of 28 attempts and following it up with a 16-of-19 junior season and 8 of 9 so far this year (the only miss coming from 50 yards). Is it any coincidence that during the same time span Ohio State, despite often struggling terribly on offense (it managed just 137 yards against the Wolfpack), is 28-2?

One of our faucets is busted, and Moen handles this so well – they walk you through a process to identify your faucet and then they send you the parts you need, free of charge. Great experience.

I previously blogged that i was going to try Streetkeys.com to get a replacement key. well don’t bother, they don’t really seem to be able to offer the service they promise. without ever explaining why, they refunded our money and told us “we can’t help you”. We have to get a key the hard way now – have the car towed to a dealership and have the key cut and matched at the dealership. Sad.

OK based on this reco – Movalog: Merging your blogs – i installed multiblog last nite. actually went on kind of a plugin install rampage. the install of multiblog and getxml were so easy i decided to try out some more from the mt3 tested library. i’ve slowed down tho, as the install of typemover hasn’t worked quite so well – some path problems.

These might be cool – meryl.net articles: WordToys – though it has been a month of Sundays since I’ve used Word. Mostly i type email, blog entries, and then some structured stuff like XML, HTML, PHP, etc. It is a rare day I type a word doc.
