I continue to find a lot of enjoyment in the comments left in response to my creative writing entries. The annotations of my fan base are funny and for more insightful than my futile chronicles. Additionally, the blog proves to serve a very important function: Interaction with my friends and family. Thank you for making this a success. I'm not very good at email and I find it hard to write personable responses to your inquiries. This Internet function proves a high utility. I also appreciate how you all choose to overlook my grammatical errors. I rely on the hyphen and the ... (I don't know the official grammatical term for that), as it just makes it easier to end my thoughts .
Unfortunately, I don't have a whole slew to report today. Today, is my Mom's birthday! Happy birthday! I hope that you are having fun at the Beau. Play the craps table for me and stick w/ the 6 and 8. Leave the hard ways alone and don't bet against the house - it's just not sound gambling - if that's not an oxymoron then I don't know what to say.
Another round of mail came in the wagon today. My neighbors, Dennis and Melissa, came through in high order - providing plenty of reading material and nutritional products. They gave me some high speed energy supplement stuff - for those of you know who know the newlyweds you wouldn't be at all surprised. Thank you very much. My parents came out of the bullpen and did a preemptive strike of Saints memorabilia for football season. That's what I am talking about. Crazy to think that football season is just around the corner. I will say that it is time to call off the beef jerky hounds. Thank you all for positioning me at the head of the bartering line - but I now have enough beef jerky to sustain of of Micronesia.
Another well done goes out to all of you for your Chris Young for all-star petitions. CY has a slim lead over the field. However, this effort goes for a few more days - so what are you doing reading this? Open up your browser and vote again. We all need to pitch in and do our part. Vote CY into office ... located at the pitchers mound in San Francisco. KNOW ABOUT IT! I'll close w/ a retort to Meg and Padres predictions. Meg - very funny; however, my faith in the Padres is unflappable. Yes, Colleen is treating me to a game at Camden Yards when the Orioles take on the Devil Rays. This event is a testament to my fellowship of baseball. It has nothing to do with me jumping ship. After all, this is an American League game between two terrible teams that don't let the pitcher hit. No self respecting baseball fan likes the brand of Designated Hitter baseball. Ben - Friars vs. Braves at the end of the week. I'm predicting a series split (w/ one game of Braves domination .... the Jones brothers always bash in the Gas Lamp ballpark) and the Padres go into the all-star break w/ a 50-37 record.

. . . I want to thank Colleen for the TWO care packages I received from her on Saturday. She included a pillow with a neat protective cover to keep out the sand and bugs and a brand new, washed in Tide, pillow case. Not to mention she filled and sent my prescriptions along with an awesome, homemade, mixed CD commemorating my arrival at the Half Way point.
Blah, blah, blah, misspelled word, improper use of a preposition, blah, blah.
GO BRAVES
holla! i'm glad colleen finally gave me this link, & i'm glad the package made it. i had not heard of the movie either, so i took a chance. you'll have to ask someone else about clooney 'cause i don't know who he is either. p.s.- are you aware that your wife wore mouse ears for an entire weekend? too bad i wasn't there to prevent it.
So typical when you're having an affair .... - .... - .... - lame excuses and denial. Go ORIOLES!
Happy Fourth of July, Geoff!
150 votes and counting for CY, work, who needs that when CY can get into the All-Star game. Aimee says hi! We love you. I'll have to show you my padres belt buckle when you get back.
We are back from the Beau and much poorer. We did have a great time with Dr. John. Sharon and John are on their way here from the Beau to spend the fourth with us. Down side, no golf. We had to get back early to rescue the Trigger and Buster. I am doing my part in the CY vote. Hate the anti-spam numbers!!!
