For me it was getting a phone call from my dad yesterday that he had another infection in his leg.  I don’t understand all the ins and outs of diabetes.  When you get to be a boy my size though, it’s something you really need to keep on top of.  And I’ll be honest, I [...]

Have you heard about this couple up here in The Couv who had their car keyed in response to displaying an Obama sign on their front lawn?  I must confess, I missed it.  Shame on me.  It’s never occurred to me to take action against anyone displaying a sign, or bumper sticker, espousing a view [...]

Someone has gone through an awful lot of work and dug up some course materials from classes he taught at the University of Chicago a decade ago.
This is what Obama was doing in his mid-thirties.  Me?  I’m signed up for Econ 201 at PCC this Fall.  I have some catching up to do.

Back in the day, one could enter [...]

Here’s how out of touch I am.  One of the biggest things happening in music today, Girl Talk, is in town at the Roseland tonight.  What makes Girl Talk interesting?  He does it all with a computer and other peoples’ music.  He’s a mash-up artist and might just be a genius.

That’s what they’re thinking about up here in The Couv.  I wrote about some of my experience seeing The Police up there.  I forgot to mention the awful traffic and long concession lines.  I can’t imagine how difficult it must be to find people willing to work 10 nights a year in the middle of [...]

This Josh Childress to Europe story is the first of what will be many stories of American players heading off to Europe.  Why?  Because the Euro is worth way more than the dollar right now.  Players would be foolish not to take a serious look at this option.
I got a good chuckle listening to one [...]
