Now I've been tagged

My kind girlfriend, Liz over at an OC girl living in an extraordinary world has tagged me.

The rules:
-Grab the book closest to you
-Open to page 123
-Scroll down to the 5th sentence
-Post the text of the next 3 sentences on your blog
-Name of the book and the author
-Tag 3 people

Unfortuantely, I'm at work right now and only have dorky tech books around me. Sorry Lizzie, but thats what happens when you date a software developer. I'll give it a shot anyway.

Choose Site > Locate in Remote Site. (On Windows only, if the Site window is active, choose Edit > Locate in Remote Site.) You can also select the file in the Local Folder and right-click (Windows) control-click (Macintosh) and choose Locate in Remote Site from the context menu.

Very interesting, I know. Now you know how I spend a quarter of my life.

JP's Power Rankings - Week 4

Great games this weekend with some upsets, poundings, and last minute victories. As always, opinions are welcome.

JP's Power Rankings for Week 4


1.USC2-0The Trojans just keep on rolling.
2.Ohio State3-0Better not play the way you did versus the Bearcats during the first half against the Nittany Lions this weekend.
3.Auburn3-0 They won the annual Battle of the Tigers and their path to the SEC Championship just got a lot easier.
4.West Virginia3-0The Slaton and White attack came out flying against the Terps. They should have an easy time until Louisville.
5. Michigan 3-0Huge win in front of Touchdown Jesus should save Lloyd's job for another year.
6.Florida3-0 Big win at Rocky Top, only Alabama, LSU, Auburn, Georgia, South Carolina, FSU and possibly the SEC Championship to go.
7.LSU2-1Tough loss on the Plains, but with that much talent they should stay in the Top 10.
8.Georgia3-0Quiety the Bulldogs are marching into the National Championship picture.
9.Louisville3-0They spanked a solid Miami team without Michael Bush and Brian Brohm. It's scary to think how good they could be with both of them healthy.
10. Virginia Tech3-0One more game left in the preseason for the Hokies. Then its time to get to work with Georgia Tech.

My very own power poll

With college football now in full effect, I've decided to come up with my own power rankings. As always, Opinions are welcome. Enjoy the games this weekend.

JP's Power Rankings for Week 2

1.USC1-0Will John David Booty win the Hesiman? Ok, you can stop laughing now. If he keeps it up he'll join the ranks of Carson Palmer and Matt Leinart. I can hear the chants at the Hesiman cermony now, "Booty, Booty, Booty!".
2.Texas1-0Defending champs reload and will look to take down the Buckeyes again this weekend.
3. Ohio State1-0They lost 9 out of 11 starters on defense. Good luck in Austin boys, you'll need it.
4.West Virginia1-0The Slaton and White combo is lethal. Their schedule has them making plans for the desert.
5.Auburn1-0 Tommy's crew is looking to right the 2004 national championship game. Too bad the odds of going undefeated in the SEC twice in 3 years has to be 1200000000-1. Maybe they could get in with one loss.
6. Notre Dame 1-0Beating a middle of the pack ACC team 14-10 isn't that impressive. Maybe, just maybe the Irish were a bit overrated at #2.
7.LSU1-0 Don't get caught looking toward that big showdown with Auburn next week. You still have Mike Stoops' Arizona Wildcats to get through. On second thought go ahead and start preparing for the Tigers.
8.Florida1-0Weird how Chris Leak still has to win over fans in Gainesville seeing that he is one of the great quarterbacks in Florida history statistics wise.
9.Florida State1-0Huge win in the Orange Bowl. Defense dominates, but questions linger on offense.
10. Michigan1-0National chamionship victories can only buy so much job security as Lloyd Carr is finding out. If you have a second google Lloyd Carr or just click on the following link, http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=Lloyd+Carr&btnG=Google+Search and look at "See results for" section. Interesting...
