As you have noticed, my blog entries have been a little slow recently. I think that I've been trying to fight off post traumatic leave syndrome. It has been taking a toll on me - but never fear, I'm back! Fueled by Greg Maddux and the Padres, I am determined to get back in the posting business. The upcoming week is a big one for Padre nation. We'll find out if the Padres are for real. They start off with the east leading Mets and then travel on to Philadelphia to close out the weekend. The Phils currently trail the Padres by one game in the NL wild card race. The good news is that we'll send both Young and Peavy vs. the Mets. Speaking of Peavy ... what the hell? His comments in the Union-Tribune were ill timed at best. He's under contract until the end of the 2009 season and went on and on about how he doubts the Padres will pay him enough for services when his current contract is up.
At any rate, things here in IZ are going well. Ramadan is rapidly approaching, and that is usually marked by a spike in violence (ironic if you ask me). Part of me wishes that they come out and fight ... however, thei mportant part is to find out when they will stop fighting in whatever cowardly manner. I think that by the end of September we'll have our answer. I'll just close by saying that I think they'll find we're ready.
And, in the oh by the way category ... my parents didn't buy a corvette. They only brought it home to take pictures with it. They settled for a Tahoe. Oh, those funny jokers. Sorry Sean, I hear that they can get you a great price on a used Hyundai!

At least we did not lose our mind. It was fun driving the Vet. Did you see the Sports Ill article on Pevy from two months ago? He talked about his contract in the article. I still have it, if you want it.
As long as my car lasts longer than yours did, that the goal. Sorry i cant go to any Padres games this week, i have my midterms starting this week.
