HAPPY BIRTHDAY, SKIPPY

The last week and a half have been rather hectic around our house. My step-father is in the hospital. It all started with a mild heart attack and snowballed from there. Anyway, he's on the mend and it looks like he'll be coming home soon. Why would I start out a birthday post for my son by talking about my step-father's condition? Because of running back and forth to the hospital and helping my mother run errands I missed doing a post for Dimples, who turned 23 last week. Sorry girl...HAPPY BELATED BIRTHDAY.

Now, getting around to Skippy, who is 27, single, and can cook, I've come up with a little photo show, in the style of Snoopy's Joe Cool alter ego. It's is sure to embarrass the boy. Many of the photos were taken while he was in scouting.

Happy Valentines Day

That's the Way Love Goes
by Willie Nelson

I've been throwin' horseshoes
Over my left shoulder
I've spent most all my life
Searching for that four leaf clover
Yet you run with me
Chasing my rainbows
Honey, I love you too
That's the way love goes

That's the way love goes, Babe
That's the music God made
For the whole wide world to sing
It never gets old
It only grows
And losing makes me sorry
You say don't you worry
Honey, I love you too
And that's the way love goes

That's the way love goes, Babe
That's the music God made
For the whole wide world to sing
It never gets old
It only grows
And losing makes me sorry
You say don't you worry
Honey, I love you too
And that's the way love goes

1000 Wins For Pat Summitt

She did it...or rather her players did it for her...1,000 wins. Last night the Lady Vols beat the Lady Bulldogs of Georgia 73-43 to give their legendary coach, Pat Summitt her 1,000th win.



I hope she wins 1,000 more...and a few more national championships.

ONE FOR THE AGES

From the Pittsburgh Post Gazette

It was the best Super Bowl I've ever seen. Even better than last year when the G-men beat the Patriots. But I gotta tell you, the last five minutes of the game were the most nerve-wracking I've ever lived through. And when Phoenix scored with less than three minutes to play in the game I remember thinking that it's not supposed to end like this. How little did I know?

Goody Two Shoes called the final three minutes excruciating, and she was right. But, would the game mean as much if the Steelers would have won 20-7 (the score before Kurt Warner brought the Cardinals back.) I doubt if it would.

This says it all.

The SWEEEEEEET smell of success.

The only bummer in all this was that I went down to the Book Center (local newsstand) to buy a copy of the Pittsburgh Post Gazette but the owner informed me that he didn't get any. Major bummer. Oh, well, I can live without it.

Oh, yeah. Here's the best commercial from this years Super Bowl.
