BLUE SPRINGS SOUTH PREVAILS OVER BLUE SPRINGS!

Thats right! South actually beat the over-rated district champions, the Blue Springs pussy-cats! After last year's upsetting defeat (15-14) the Jaguars comeback this year and stomp the Wildcats 21-10. The Jaguars played a great game, stopping the Wildcat's drives, and then getting great field position off the punts (We even blocked one!). By half it was already 21-10, and the second half was scoreless! This win tied the series 4-4, so next year we'll see who can come out on top!

FREAKERS BALL 2002!!!!

This was freakin' awesome! STP, Jackyl, Flip, Earshot, and A.K.A! I'll start from the beginning. After waking up at noon on Oct. 19, I screwed around waiting for the concert. Once it was 3, I picked Derks up, and we were on our way. Finding a parking spot was easy, and then we walked in. After the security check, we were in. We checked out some booths, then went to see Audio Kombat Arsenal. They were alright, but I really wanted to see Flip. A.K.A. left the stage, and we waited around for Flip. While we were waiting, some girls in the front row pulled their tops off! It was cool, but they weren't that hot. Once Flip came on, it was the best show of the night (besides the costume contest, but I'll get to that later). They are the band that sings "Freak" you might have heard it on 98.9 Anyways, they put on a really good show, they knew how to work the crowd. After that, Earshot took the stage, I never really liked many of their songs, so Ryan (Derks) and I went to the bleachers to wait for the dragster. On our way to the bleachers, Derks was taking a picture of me, and some random girl comes up and poses with me. It was pretty cool, but I think she was ugly. I couldn't tell. We went to get something to eat. I paid $2 for a hot dog, and Ryan paid $4 for a polish sausage, and they were both the same size. We got up to the bleachers and watched Earshot. They were alright, but nothing that special. After they were done, Johnny Dare brought out the dragster. On his first try, he got it up to 183 mph, and it looked soooo freakin' fast. We weren't gonna wait around for the second run, so we pushed our way through the crowd so we could see Jackyl up close. After a long wait, they came out, and the crowd went wild. They had alot of good songs, and in one of them, Johnny Dare came up and played guitar with them. The lead singer then pulled out a chainsaw for the Lumberjack song, and it was freakin cool. He made it go with the song, and it sounded awesome! Then he set a stool on fire and smashed it into the stage. After Jackyl was off, the costume contest was underway. Alot of them sucked, but there were some sweet ones. One was the Cat in the Hat smokin' a doobee, Drew Carey and Meemee, Cheech and Chong, a pimp and a hoe (who shook her boobies back and forth), a giant penis, and a devil woman who was topless. This girl was hella-hott! She had fake boobs, but I didn't care one bit. I snapped three pictures, I hope they come out! The ended up winning, and all she had for a costume was some little devil horns on her head. After she won the costume contest, the announcer said to look to your left (opposite of the costume contest) to see the second trial of the dragster, but everyone was still looking at the girls boobs. Finally, after a really long wait, STP came on! They rocked the house! They played all their hit songs, and the crowd got really into it! After their tight performance, there was an awesome fireworks show. Derks and I watched as we dashed out to my car. When we left, Derks couldn't remember which way to go (the way we came was blocked off) so I ended up turning the wrong way and getting us lost in Raytown, then Kansas City. After half an hour of trying to get back, we found our way. All in all, it was a kickass show! I'll try to have pictures ASAP!

October 17th

Went to the mall today with Maddie. I picked her up after school and we headed out to the mall. She bought some black boots, and I got a black hoodie, a stocking cap, and two pairs of pants and a shirt. All for less than $100. After that we played some video games at Fun Factory. Its pretty funny seeing Maddie trying to play video games. Two days to Freaker's Ball!!!

October 16th

Today, TJ, Ryan and I went to TJ's to clear out the woods so we can play paintball over there. We got to throw all these logs into the chipper. This thing is amazing (loud too)! It chops up about anything, and spits it out in little chunks. We might be going back Friday to do more!

October 13th

Hey everyone! Hope you had a great homecoming! I did! I went with Jessie Torres. I picked her up at 4:30 (after playing video games for three hours before that!) then we took a couple of pictures at her house, and nobody could figure out how to put my boutineer on, so after all the pictures, we went to my mom's house. She was so excited to see us, she hardly said a word. We took some more pictures with the digital camera (located under this paragraph), and talked for a little bit. After that, we headed to Lakewood, to eat at The Cove (a restaurant in the main clubhouse). We had the place to ourselves, and a really nice waitress sat us down, served us our food, and talked to us for a little bit. When we were full, we walked down to the beach. We could see Francisco's house from there, so we called him up and told him to see if he could see us. He had to use binoculars to see us, but it was still cool. After that (it was freezing out) we got in my car and put the heater on full blast. We talked a little bit on the way to the dance, and when we showed up, the place was pretty much empty. Eventually more and more people showed up. Jessie and I avoided dancing for as long as we could (neither of us know how to dance very well) until there was a slow dance, then we'd dance together. Most the time we just walked around looking for people. We eventually found TJ and his date, and then we went and got pictures taken. After pictures there was another slow dance, then more fast ones. It was pretty bad, TJ, Kristine, and me were all standing together trying to dance. I couldn't help but laugh at the fact that we were so bad. Then Jessie found her friend and forced me to dance. I hated it, but I did it anyways. I think I actually danced somewhat good, once I learned you gotta move your hips, or it looks really bad. Anyways, we left at 9 b/c TJ wasn't feeling to good, so me, him and Jessie piled into my car and drove back to my house. On the way, a deer jumped out in front of us, but I saw it fast enough I had time to slow down. When we got back to my house, we went downstairs and saw Grant and Melissa (Melissa gave me a big hug and said her "baby" had grown up....she's weird like that) and Grant said hey. I hadn't seen him for a couple weeks since he's been at college. We left my house for TJ's so we could watch "Gladiator" on the theater. In mid-movie, the dvd skipped out, so we had to quit watching it. I took Jess home, then stopped by Sonic because I was starving. I gulped down my sandwich on the way home, then went to bed right after checking my email on the computer. Now here are some of the pictures:

October 4th

Hey everyone! Lots happened today! First, Derks and I won Freaker's Ball concert tickets on 98.9, then tonight after work, Derks, Sisco and I went to Travis's. We got some hillarious pictures and movies. Check them out on the friend's page!

October 2th

Hey everyone, I'm finally updating! Lots of things have happened in the last month, Derks got on the radio, Chiefs are 2-2, South blew out Truman, TJ had PS2 on a bigscreen (got taken away thanks to his dumbass bro) and alot of stuff like that. If you are wondering, school is going good, except for spanish, but we'll get to that later. Today in communications, we were assigned to groups. Luckily, I got in a group with this junior named Amanda. She's pretty hot, and likes to show off her stuff. She shows me her "cute" thong everyday, and is always wearing extremely (nice) low-cut shirts. Anyways, in our group, our topic is pornography! She actually wanted to do it too. She is really cool. She said she'd even get her sister to buy some porn so we could do some "research." Heh heh heh...

Back to Spanish though, its extremely hard, and I don't really understand a thing. We have a giant test today, which I studied for, but I still don't think I'll do very well on it. Spanish is so retarded. They have like 4 different words that stand for the same thing. I just think all the Spanish people should learn English, because they are coming to our country, we are't going to theirs. See what I mean?

September 7th

Today at work we had two gay guys come up and hit golfballs, it was pretty funny! They were hardcore gays, with the voice, tight shirts and pants, and the girly motions. When I was picking buckets up around them, I made sure not to bend over. I was too afraid of what would happen. Just the funny story for today.

September 4th

Another day in hell is over! Today wasn't as bad as yesterday, Communications started well, I gave two really easy speeches, one about my shoe, mom, friends, and paintball, and the other about another classmate. Then programming was cool, Steve and I talked about D-Day 2003 (He is going too!) and we looked at pictures of it while the teacher rambled on. After that was History, which was normal, until lunch, when he let us out 30 seconds early so we could beat the rush. We ended up getting in a big crowd and not making lunch early at all. Then Spanish...boy am I gonna hate this class. We had to say all this stuff that nobody understood, and then we listened to sesame street songs in spanish, to help us learn our abc's, but it didn't help. I'm off to work now, so if you can, come see me!

September 3rd

And so the summer is now over and school is back in session... I started my day off by waking up at 6:30 and getting ready in about 15 minutes. I walked out to my car, remembering summer, and then got in and drove to Sisco's house. After waiting a couple, he came out, and then we moved on to Richie's. His parents filmed him getting into the car! LOL! Off to school! When we arrived, we found a parking spot and walked in. I walked to my first hour (communications I) and found Maddie Bushko (the only person I knew) so I sat behind her. We were told to interview eachother, and then the bell sounded, so I headed to second hour. Geometry class was pretty cool, Mr. Jones made fun of all our previous teachers. Third hour was Basic Programming, and there were only the nerdie computer kids that never had any girlfriends in their life were in there, and the teacher pretty much said we are idiots, but Steve Swanson was in there, so we sat by eachother. I just took that class so I could play on the internet. Finally off to fourth hour, the highlight of my day. I have a cool english teacher that is really funny and two of my best friends (TJ Herndon and Jessica House) in the class. The teacher said we will have alot of fun, and TJ and I just made jokes the whole time, without the teacher really minding very much. It will be my best class this year! Then off to fifth hour, a world history class. I was really disapointed, because nobody I really liked was in the class. And to make it worse, Johnny Mackey and Michael (Quincy) Nelson were in there too. Luckily, lunch was fun, with Richie, Trevor Flannigan, Travis, Nick Organ, and 2 other kids. Trevor talked the whole time about how small his dick was ("The smaller the potatoes are, the bigger the steak looks") and then Nick Organ was talking about Tommy Lee the rest of the time. It was a good laugh. After lunch, I went to biology, where everyone was too happy, including the teacher...I'm gonna hate this class all year. After a horribly long hour, I was off to Spanish I (I'm a procrastinator) with Ryan Derks. The teacher (who was very annoying) kept saying things way too fast in spanish, so I just made a comment to myself and the people around me everytime she said something. Then she made us go around the classroom introducing ourselves in spanish, which nobody knew what they were saying. It didn't work out to well. And then the bell finally rang, and we headed out to the parking lot, where we met up with Richie. We got out safely (wipes sweat off brow) and went to my mom's house, where she made us a strawberry dacerie (sp?) the non-alcoholic one, that is. We hung around there just messing around (I hit Derks in the side of the head with a nerf ball flying off my tennis racket) until we needed to head home. I dropped Richie off (his parents still filming him), and then headed home, where I am now, typing all this! Hope you guys had a great first school day! And now for a lighter note, a dancing Hitler!

September 2st

September 1st

Last night I spent the night at Ryan's house, with Sisco, Burke, and Donohue. It took us awhile to get to sleep because Donohue couldn't help taking his shirt off and whipping Matt. In the morning, we went out to Splat City, a paintballing place in Kansas City. After dishing out alot of cash, we finally started to play. Alot of us got hit, but we had alot of fun. In the end, we were there for about 4 1/2 hours. When we got back, Derks and I took about half an hour to clean everything up. It was alot of fun.

August 21st

Hey everyone! Tonight was great,me, Burke, Sisco, Derks, and Donohue were up at the park playing football, when suddenly the lights went out, so we had to wait awhile for them to come back on. Sisco, Derks and Donohue decided to jump in the pool. There must have been some security system or something, because lakewood patrol showed up a couple minutes later. We were all on the tennis court, and of course, some of us were soaking wet, leaving tracks on the ground. Lakewood Patrol (LP). Burke and I stayed behind, while the rest ran off. Burke and I got interrogated, we tried to work with them, so they'd think we were on their side, but really we were just covering for our friends. I gave them my I.D., address, and phone number, and they said Burke and I weren't in trouble. We played football to act like we were just playing it cool. On the other hand, the other guys made in cleany away to Sisco's house. They avoided patrol for awhile there, and then started heading to Derk's. Derks on the otherhand had left earlier on Sisco's bike, and he avoided the patrol a couple times, almost getting caught. Sisco and Donohue got stopped by the LP, and played it cool like they didn't know about anything going on, and it worked. We all met up at my house, and everyone got a safe ride home!

August ?

Well, my bro Grant, is off to college! It gonna get really dull around my house now, because I'm the only one in the family that doesn't play golf every day! Now I feel like the outcast of the family. I don't like golf, I stay up late, I don't listen to country, which are all opposites of my other family members. Late nights are boring now with nobody to talk to! Oh well, here is a pic of Grant on his last day here:
