That's it for me for the holiday weekend. I'm exhausted after drafting with YBT for the last 2 days. Dude's a machine... ;)

Umm...coming from the King himself!

There was a song with a lyric about it raining again.

This song?

I couldn't see the image (tried to fix it here though). I immediately thought of "Here Comes the Rain Again" by The Eurythmics. Always liked that one. I like most of their songs, though.

Or it could be this "classic" from the early 80's:

Why the time deadline? My guess is that DevilAlumna is the most experienced diver here, perhaps she might have some ideas?

We are going sailing in the Virgin Islands, and I really want to be able to dive by then.

Way cool! My brother has lived down there for about 30 years on just about every island. What island are you going to?

I'm watching the Biography channel's show on "Different Strokes", Gary Coleman comes off as a jackass. But he admitted to being a virgin, so that might be his problem.

Test the statue!!!!

It rained sideways so much yesterday the schools here had a two hour delay.

[YmoBeThere]

Hmmmm....maybe they should have made the kids walk to school yesterday both ways and have the rain reverse directions. That way, they'd have a real story to tell their grandkids.

Must be the weather. No energy, well not much. Must power wash the poarch & deck. Did the deck in Efland. What a job.This deck (Kenansville) will be easy. Its small.

It feels strange posting in the middle of the day.

There are lots of people feeling strange today. Get to work people! (I'm at work...I'm testing my internet)

Atlanta looks like it has really been hit by the recession.

Have housing prices come down? Good thing you sold last year?

Housing prices are way down here, and as Lav and I remarked at breakfast yesterday, there's a ton of empty retail space these days. Things are indeed not too good.
God bless graduate school.

[wilson]

Wasn't it last year at this time when Atlanta ran out of gas?

That's right! They did!

Yeah, that was freakin' miserable.

Can someone please explain to me why I'm posting again in the PPB over yonder? I told myself I was leaving that bastion of pissing matches, but I'm getting sucked back in.

When I was living in an apartment on Central my second year, my neighbor was the daughter of a famous coach. And one day, a pro scout from the Cincinnati Reds came looking for a Duke football/baseball player who lived in the apartment before me by the initials QM. He was later drafted by the Rockies. I didn't get any free tickets out of it.

Quinton McCracken. He spent parts of eleven seasons in the bigs, with Colorado, Tampa Bay, Arizona, and a cup of coffee with Seattle. Made about $10 million total for his trouble...not too shabby.

I think it is a giant vortex that occasionally nabs you as you scan by and you find it hard to get back out.

I get it now. It's like a massive 20 car pileup on the highway.

We're creeping up on 2/3 of LTE 1.0...almost 64% right now.
And I have officially caught up on LTE 2.0 after my great Labor Day Adventure of '09.

The question at the time I was speaking to his neighbor was whether or not he was going to get enough days in the bigs to qualify for a different pension level(based on X number of games eligible for Y year). He was pretty close, but I'm not sure if he made it.
