NFL Taunting

As I watched this week's NFL football games I noticed a trend I did not like. The officials were calling a rediculous amount of taunting penalties. I noticed it in both Monday night games. The Raiders-Chargers game was probably the worst call I saw. Randy Moss caught a 15 yard pass and went out of bounds and flipped the ball up. It went to San Diego's kicker and the officials called a taunting penalty because Moss "threw the ball at a San Diego player."

The NFL is slowly destroying the sport with stupid rules like this one and the new no celebration rule. They are taking the fun out of the game.

Beware of Target.com!!

Target.com is a very evil website.

The other day, my wife was window shopping online at Target.com and was just looking around not really planning on buying anything. The next day there was a $200+ charge on her debit card. She looked into it and it turns out it was "one-click" shopping at Target. All you have to do is click on an item and it automatically puts it in your shopping cart. When you leave or log out of the site, it automatically orders anything that is in your shopping cart.

We called Target less than 24 hours afterwards and they said they couldn't cancel the order because it was already "in their system." Well, we can either return and get stuck with $60 in shipping fees for both ways or keep it and have a kid's dresser that we don't want.

Lessons Learned:
1) Never Shop at Target.com
2) Don't let my wife create accounts at on-line sites
