New Blog

This blog is closed but check out my new blogging venture here... http://daddyscape.blogspot.com enjoy, peace out....

Rest easy PammieK .... We will all miss you. You will always be in our hearts and CJ says she knows you are flying with the Angels now , We love you.

"If I leave here tomorrow Would you still remember me? For I must be travelling on, now, 'Cause there's too many places I've got to see. But, if I stayed here with you, girl, Things just couldn't be the same. 'Cause I'm as free as a bird now, And this bird you can not change. Lord knows, I can't change"

I am giving up wordsteal. Sacrifice is a big part of life for everyone and i have decided to sacrifice playing this game in order to devote that time to letting my daughter explore all the extracurricular activities she can handle. When i created the Wordsteal League she was 4 years old and tho we had fun , i thought i would be able to keep up with a league while keeping up with her stuff. How wrong i was lol , in just 2 years so many changes!!! She is in a fall soccer league , on a swim team, starting TaekwonDo lessons , in a church activities group , and we have 4-H , brownies and softball on the horizon as well.

My employer wants me to take classes that relate to my job which will be a pain in the ass but mean more money in my pocket. I camp, fish, canoe, boxing practice , tae lessons , grappling and more. My wife has her job and activities etc and for all this to mesh something had to go. Steal is one of the activities i had to cut in order for the rest to work out.

I will miss many of you in the game but i can still send and receive email from anyone that wants to keep in touch. The league will be in Natsss most capable hands, she has been running it for awhile now anyway and doing a great job and if she gets tired of it she can pass it on or close it.

The list of people i would like tosay something to or about here is a mile long and would take forever to do so let me just say to all my friends , Best wishes to you all and drop me a line , i will return it. To the enemies i made in this game a giant FU lol and you all can drop me a line too.

So thats it folks , Be excellent to each other and party on!

Mummykins

sloppy hugs and wet kisses to mummy too , in newsletter she said she hates them but that was a typo , she really loves them and wants you all to send them to her daily xoxoxoxxooxooxoxo mummy

just an update

Still busy as hell this summer , went back to Holiday World a couple of weeks ago with Cyndi and CJ . Great park... free soft drinks parking and free sunscreen, very awesome waterpark and the roller coasters are freakin scary lol. We rode the Pilgrims Plunge , the worlds tallest water ride, that was a scary mother too. Plenty of bikini babes to top it all off. :-)

Cean is still a turd. Come back Cean!!! come back!!!

When i was doing the blog awards thing Lainy got the Bigballs award as TD of the year in 2007 and to prove that she earned it , in just a couple of months as a steal league td she is about to hit her #100 for the league. lots of xoxoxoxoxoxoxo big sloppy hugs and wet tongue kisses for you lainy just because we all know how much you love them :P You are truly the IronTd :-)

Who knows , maybe i will start giving awards again lol. im sore as hell every day, been sparring 3 days a week with some young fellows and they hit hard. it also isnt doing my carpal tunnel syndrome any favors . I am too old for this shit but im having fun. I think the worst part is doing pushups and situps. Or trying to jog. My cardio sucks. Smoking anything is not good for cardio, drinking whiskey probably doesnt help either. The upside is im getting close to as fit as i was when i got hurt back in 2000.

In the where are they now files Olivia stopped in to say hi yesterday. She said she misses me a little bit lol.

If anyone wants to see some good fights tune in to versus network sunday night and watch Miguel Torres vs Brian Bowles in the WEC bantamweight championship match. the undercard will be good too but that Miguel is one bad little dude.

a nice post

I recently met a player in rated room who uses the name thesaturdays . . She is a blog reader , where she heard about it i have no idea but she suggested i try to write something nice so here it is. Hiyas thesaturdays ;-) you have been sweet and nice , im glad you arent a turd like cean_glace lol. Was that nice enough?? i guess i oughta try writing nice things more often, that was fun.

cya ;-)

cean glace

Cean , you are a turd. My sympathies are with whoever has to put up with you. Thankfully we at wordsteal league dont have to anymore . Good riddance!!!! now bugger off

it aint steal but.....

hi everyone,

there is an alternate place to play wordox..... it isnt the crappy cafe version but its not as good as steal either....if you want to try it here is the link http://www.gametwist.com/ . It uses the sowpods dictionary.

cya there

Social Networking

I appreciate the invites to join hoverspot , facebook , myspace and all that but i just dont have time to mess with those sites. If you wanna talk to me im available on yahoo messenger , perrin1967 is the id. All that aside.... if anyone has Mark Byers on any of those sites please for the love of everything holy i beg you to nudge him and ask him to pretty please reset the wordsteal game. Captain Scurvy on the hoyle CD is already a pain in the ass, im tired of playing him and the rest of the CD characters . So any help on this i willl owe whoever one. :-)

amazing words

I played a person using the name N81.... game rating 1208 , win-loss record 233-919. This person led the game off with the word echinate , then played words like splith, cycas and serotiny. Fucking amazing words.... pulled them out at the end of the timer every turn but still those words were botworthy. There were more but my mind is still spinning from seeing a player with that rating and record using those words. Good thing i have strategy lol.

Summer was here with a vengeance this past 2 weeks with mid 90's temps , ugh. Hard to concentrate on getting things done in that kind of heat. Thank God for the town's pools. And the bikini clad chewywagons there :D

Leagues 2 Year Anniversary

2 Years, wow!!!! When i started the league i wasnt sure it would last but dedicated players and staff continue to make Wordsteal League a fun place to play. As we enter our third year we hope to line up a few sponsors here and there to allow us to offer more and better prizes. If anyone who reads this has any ideas please pass them on. And thanks everyone that plays or helps with the league , you people kick ass!!!!

Now one little rant.... my schedule lately hasnt allowed me much playing time but every now and then when i come on and there isnt a tourney i go into rated and try to play the bot. All well and good but.... and its a big hairy butt..... who are these same few assholes that come in to watch? Its not just my games they watch either. Its annoying as hell when some jerk comes in to salivate ( and who knows what else) on the table while im playing and trying to relax. Get a fucking life you dildoes ....

Thats all

updates n stuff

Again its been awhile since i bothered to post, sorry but its just that time of year. Yardwork after i get home from regular work so that i dont have to do it on the weekends (usually). Weekends im fishing ,camping , canoeing, spending time with my wife and daughter away from the house.



I recently had to have one of my dogs put to sleep because she had cancer and a few weeks after that we added two new pups to the family. one is a beagle and the other is a maltese. Getting them trained the way we want takes up a slice of time as well. If you want to see pics of them you will have to get the next wordsteal league newsletter.

Along with all of that i try to keep up with a few tv shows ... Rescue Me , CSI , The Ultimate Fighter and Monk. RescueMe has been kinda boring up until the last episode which i enjoyed.

Books..... My wife recently watched the vampire movie Twilight and then got the 4 books in the set. I have read the first three and while the general storyline ideas are ok the books are cheesy and pretty much suck lol. I have a copy of The Green Mile i am about to start on, i hope its good. I also read The DragonRiders of Pern by Anne McCaffrey and it wasnt bad at all.

Regular readers know i love the sport of mixed martial arts and follow it closely. In Illinois and the midwest we have a number of fighters and lots of amateur shows. I am 42 years old now and i want to climb in a cage on an amateur show and fight at least once before i hit 45. I have started a slow training process of an hour a day walking and jogging in the morning and an hour of either weightlifting , swimming or light punching bag training in the evenings. I have been doing this for about 6 weeks and im starting to feel really good. I hope to step it up soon at a school near here that focuses on jujitsu and grappling. We also have a TaeKwonDo instructor in town that will work out with me and he has a lot to teach. My wife thinks im fucking crazy but she has always had that opinion. For those interested , if i do fight it will be in the 205 lb lightheavyweight class.

On to the league, we have the 2 year anniversary coming up in june with right now close to 65,000 matches played. Holy Shit!!! i never thought it would go so well. Also i want to welcome all the hoyle players from FSW and Doublecross that have joined. I hope you enjoy the newer dictionary and the league. I know you miss the hoyle graphics but maybe you will learn to love steal like we do.

Thats all for the moment , i will try n post again real soon, tc and cya at the tables

The Bird

Wow , again its been awhile. Since i last posted Hoyle closed down and steal is one of the few refuges for the wordox Hoylers. One of these players , one CeanGlace aka Coinsup aka foreverforwards aka cornholio etc Has managed to irk the hell out of me a few times in just a few days. See below.

He attempted to tell my how to run the wordsteal league during an onslaught of private messages , on the same day i had to have my 15 yr old Brittany Spaniel put to sleep, he insulted my favorite bird, the Crow and generally got on my nerves every chance he had. Well Cean , there is my other favorite bird, just for you , enjoy!!!

Now on to better things, i want to welcome redberry and omega as td's for the league. Redberry has been a td and admin for steal league and wayne aka omega has td experience as well. Also i want to welcome Lainy to the td team . If you have kept up with this blog you know that she is the Iron TD with over 2800 tourneys hosted and i appreciate her coming on to help.

Thanks to all the tds on the staff for your time and especially thanks to Nats for taking on the job of TD manager :-)

Thats it for now more to come since its gonna rain all week
