Hey hey! I'll get around to finishing that trippie....after I get thru this next one!

Saw the Phelps race....2 to go. My Phelps autographed shirt keeps going up in value! I also met Ryan Lochte....kinda a jerk when I saw him 2 years ago...a little on the cocky side.

Getting ready for the long trip tomorrow! Hope I remember everything!

Philadelphia Eagles

OK, coincidentally, this goes with me being a Unithug, I am an Oakland Raiders fan for some 35 years. They are definitely the Thugs of the NFL

Hey youse....

Im not watchin any Olympics out of principal but i heard on the News Federer is out.... something like 4th loss in a row.

Do you think this is the fall of the great man or just a dip in form ?

And as youse are our resident American Tennis expert where have all the male American Tennis stars gone ??

No mens Slam wins in a long time for USA.

Yes, it would seem that Federer is no longer ranked #1, He had been #1 for a long time and is currently in a slump. Nadal is now the new #1. Basically all the pros are rated by points from tournaments and Federer has been winning many so he had a lot of points with no one close enough to catch him. Now, he is not doing so well and people are catching him on points alone. He doesn't seem to have a "coach" that is steady, also.
Am I an expert? By no means no, but since I play competivtely and both my kids are ranked in the state of Indiana and nationally, it is hard not to follow anything with tennis.
As far as the American men and tennis, I would say injuries have played a role, but, (imo) I believe they don't have the dedication that others do. There are too many outside distractions that cause them to wander (if you will). If you have ever watched the "Rocky" movies he travels to Russia to "escape" the USA and its distractions to beat the Russian (Rocky IV).

it is today???




jimmy connors......our hometown boy.

he was in my brother's class at high school.

he was a snob then and never out grew it........




and a good afternoon homies..........thursday!
only one more work day this week almost

I never got to meet Jimmy, now I did get to meet John McEnroe and he actually was very nice in person. He threw his fits on the court, but I believe that was for show. I always wondered if Jimmy was a snob and, as usual, you have the answer...

Now, since I am a USTA official, I am not allowed to be seen with any pro players, anywhere. It is against our code of ethics. We can not show favoritism towards any of them. I was hoping to meet Federer and Nadal, but now I can't...Did I pick the wrong sport to be an official in???

MORNING SUNSHINE


Bonny ... Thanks for the link to the Monster Jam page . I looked there for it and it doesn't have the one he wants . We may just get the Grave Digger one.

My TR is done added a two photos .. one of our view at the RPR . If you read the TR it is the room we actually stayed in . Not the first room .

I can't sleep and have been up since 4:30 AM . I am so annoyed with my DD Chrissy . That is the older one she was on the cell phone at that time . That is what woke me up . . There is going to be a LONG talk with her later on today .

Going away with the girls for the bachorlette party this weekend and I have to say I can't wait . NO KIDS and NO DH looking forward to it . One night away is nice .


Gonna go get some sleep ,,,, Maybe ... BBL

Hi Homies-
Wow, can't believe teens now can be on the phone all hours of the night??
I remember how strict my parents were, can't be on the phone after 10pm!!
Those were the regular house phones, didn't have cell phones back then.
If my mom ever found me on the phone after 10pm, she would unplug the phone and yell at me!
Wow, teens get it easy now in general. Sorry, not trying to offend anyone, just my parents were very strict.

Ok I gotta run and get ready for hte day and take DD to her eye Dr. appt.

Hoping to bbl later today, I hope.

K-Fish - have a great trip! (I think I mentioned this a couple of days ago)

for those that don't have teens yet..................


teens and young adults can not live without a phone.


they are on the phone or cell at midnight.

get used to it.......
it will happen..........


before cells, made my boys get a job and buy their own and pay their monthly bills on it, i would tell them to take the phone to the room with them and pick it up on the first ring so i don't wake up at 2 in the morning......


it never bothered me if they were on the phone.
i live on the computor so we all have our vices......


i had made my ressie for hrh last october.
made my disney ressie room only back in the winter.

today i called and switched my disney from room only to the package w/dining. only paid $65 more for it.

some great general discounts going on now.
originally my room with the AAA discount for room only was $100 per night.
rack was $111 w/tax.
now with the package, it is room for $49, 1 day base ticket of $79.xx and food.
since i had already budgeted $240 for food, it was a deal to change programs and pay $65 more for it to include food.

i only get the one day base ticket as i get my tickets at undercover tourist.

i have 5 cards now with a one day base on it.
now if i can only find some of them. only see 2 in my folder right now.

someday they will show up...


this means i can buy more pins at the darkside with the money i am saving at disney on the food......yayyyyyyyyyyyyy

Lucky for me DSS is a computer fanatic. All his friends IM each other at all hours of the night. He has his own puter in his room so we don't have to fight for time, and best of all no ringing phones.
