Yep, It Still Is......

The Season Has Started

Well, the season has started. We are two weeks into the season and I have set my average at 196. I feel good about the average, I just hope I can continue to do well. Let the pins fall where they may....

Dan Is The Man......

Let's face it folks, Dan has played the game the best and deserves to win. All of you in the jury house get over yourselves and vote for the one who out played you. In my opinion, Dan ranks at the top of how to play the game.

And The Trophy Goes To

The Cy-Hawk Trophy returns to the Iowa Hawkeyes. Iowa beat Iowa State Saturday 17-5. It was a team losing effort on the part of the Cyclones. There were opportunities abound for Iowa State, with several trips to the "red zone" and a lonely 3 points made not to mention the 3 missed field goals. "Go Hawkeyes".

Who Will Be The Victor?



I, myself, am a big Arkansas Razorback fan and being that the first college game I attended was a Wisconsin game there will always be a place in my heart for the Badgers. This game to many Iowans is the most important game of the season. The victor gets bragging rights and the loser has to take sh@* from the other side all year long. Kudos to the winner, I am neutral on this one.

Yahoooooooooo

Cubbies..............

The good 'ol Cubs are driving me crazy. I have been a Cub's fan since I can remember and I should be used to this crap. I have faith, the Cubs will prevail.

A fellow devout Cub's fan, Paul Lawrence,who used to sit in our section at the Iowa Cubs (triple A) passed away last Thursday. His family had a memorial at the ballpark; his ballcap on the back of his seat and Go Cubs Go piped throught the P.A. system. After the ceremony everyone sang "Take Me Out To The Ballgame". A few days before he went to the ballpark in the sky he said, "I believe it's their year". Paul, I hope you are right.

Sister Sue Update...

Val and I went to Little Rock over Labor Day weekend and stayed with my sister Sue. Mark flew in and stayed with my other sister Brenda. We had a barbeque on Saturday and the "gang" was all there. My nephews Jeremy & Jeff (Josh couldn't make the trip), my brother Ron, sister Brenda, Sammy (Sue's Hubby), Sammy's brother Bert and Sammy's mother Darlene. You'd think we had planned a family reunion or something. It was great seeing everyone.

Sue is a little thin and stubborn as ever. She finally drank an Ensure just to shut me up. It was amazing that after she drank it she had this burst of energy. I fear she won't drink anymore, can't stand the smell. I wish there was a pill (Lord knows she takes enough already)that would put a few pounds on her. Next trip, Thanksgiving.

Blah, Blah, Blah

Okay, I know I said I was going to keep up with my blogging and I don't have an excuse. Honest, I will really try to do better.
