On Friday, my daughters car decided it was going to do things that made her think something was wrong. Since Saturday sucked (weather-wise), she called our favorite automotive repair guys and made an appointment for Monday (today). So yesterday, in the afternoon, we took the car over, put the key into an envelope, along with a description of the problem(s) and dropped everything into the drop box.
Once we were done with that, we took a ride over to her place of business and spent an hour or two installing the top-secret project. As always, when it comes to technology, the best laid plans usually go out the window when you try to implement something new and this was no different.
By the way, now that it's installed and functional, I can tell you that the top-secret project was installing, hardening and configuring a VPN for them.
After we were done working there, we came home and I settled in to watch football (more on that later) and make some dinner.
Speaking of football, the two teams I wanted to see in the superb owl failed to make the grade.
The Chiefs got beat by the Bengals and, in my opinion, it looked like Mahomes choked after half time. The Chiefs led 21-10 at the half but the Bengals managed to tie it up before the end of regulation play, forcing sudden-death overtime.
During the second half of the game, and into the overtime period, Mahomes looked extremely confused in the pocket, even when his offensive line was giving him ample time and he had trouble spotting open receivers. When he did manage to find an open receiver, he overthrew them so badly that he got intercepted twice, once in the fourth quarter and again in the first OT period.
Now the Chiefs are on vacation and the Bengals are looking forward to the superb owl.
As for the 49ers and the Rams, the game was tied in the fourth quarter when the Rams managed to take a lead by kicking a field goal. They kicked off to the 49ers who took the fair catch at the 25. Garoppolo came out, tossed an incomplete pass, tossed a -3 yard pass and then threw an interception, giving the ball back to the Rams.
Stafford came out and ran three plays, all of which were him taking a knee at the snap. By doing that, they ran the clock down and won the game by 3 points.
So now the Bengals and the Rams will face each other on February 13th. Not what I would consider an exciting game. I sure hope the commercials are good...
In case you were wondering if it was cold here, I can assure you it was.
But it was a dry cold...
I did not watch any hockey last night but I do know that the Bruins lost to the Stars 6-1.
