So here I am on Saturday, hanging drywall and insulation, chugging beers, watching my beloved Irish go 11-0 and undefeated at home. I go back to my parents house where the lady and the baby are staying in the wake of internal destruction to our house. In my infinite Pigshit Irish Cheapskate wisdom, I decided to heat up my half of a fried-seafood-combo from the deli that I'd ordered Thursday night.
Then we pack the baby up, bring him to our close friend, and have a night out at the local. We're living the High Life, literally and figuratively. Chip Kelly's Arena Football team crumbles to the first NCAA Division 1 Defense its faced. Optimus Klein and Kansas State are bushwacked by Baylor.
But I keep getting the hiccups. Two lemon slices doused in tabasco and an upside-down cup of water didn't do it. Now I"m sick to my stomach. We had to make an escape from the bar.
So we're walking down West Chester Pike and suddenly I have to puke. I lean over the pavement and start to boot directly into a sewer. There I am, month shy of 30, grey hair, father, Rudy jacket on, puking into the sewer.
And then you have it. A group of kids out partying on the golf course is coming up to make their trek home, bedecked in the Delco Uniform of Fighting Irish Gear, and they see my jacket. I'd just come upright from a heave and was clearing my throat.
"Hey, the Fighting Irish! We're Number 1, man!"
I hold up a finger, both to single the Number 1 but also more importantly to implore them Just a second. And then I start to heave into the sewer again.
"Go Irish!" I shout. "Good job walking home; don't drink and drive!" I shout, and I puke some more.
And but of course ... the Old Lady had told me not to re-heat that fish. But hey, it made for a great story, right?

Great story man. Food poisoning, normallt hard liquor will help, but you have start imbibing immediately after eating the suspect food. I got this advice from my doctor. When in doubt, chug liquor.

Anyways, I love football also, we have something called ESPN America on cable, and they broadcast every saturday, starting with College Gameday and afterwards four to five college games, and on sunday they broadcast about three NFL games every week. And of course, they cover monday night football, but this starts when I'm already sleeping, I mean: european time.
