Pep,

What's the latest word on Julio?

Latest word on Julio is that he's back home in Olean and continuing rehab but holding off his re-entry to academia for probably another year. Last progress Pep heard was that he was getting some feeling in his feet. Healing of an injury of that magnitude takes a long time BUT Pep believes Julio's an upbeat young man who has rolled with the punches and will continue to show slow but steady progress on his road to recovery. Will he ever walk again? Knowing his spirit, Pep declares by faith a definitive, "YES!"

+K for asking...

Best quote from that UC story:

"The schedule is very conducive for us to get off to a good start," Kemp said.

Hmmm...Scheduling Becker, Husson, and Mt. Ida in the first four weeks is "conducive" to getting off to a good start?  This sounds like the Steve Spurrier mentality.

Nice win for the Cubs.  I fell asleep while it was still 2-2.  Just looking at the boxscore I can't believe the season Carlos Marmol is having.

Tecmo - I see your savoring your last few nights before school starts...

Any update on Sori?  Or is Sept. 1 still his expected return?

Pep - Thanks for the update on Julio

I'll be a cubs fan for today... I wish Big Z had waited to see all the money Omar was prepared to throw at him. 

S57- Congrats on post 2K

Keep the peace Dubbz - buy the puppy. You'll still be able to pull off some good tailgates.

Tags your football fan level just took a serious hit.

Down south we say Pay for the Tailgate first, Pay the mortgage second.

I may have the solution for you Dubbz.  The way my schedule is shaking out for the fall, it looks like the first Bomber game I will be able to attend will be in the playoffs...so, I may be sending up an offering to the tailgating gods for you boys to enjoy.

[realistic]

dubz - I'm with tags...keep the peace.  And be happy that the dilema is a cool puppy like a boxer...she could want a toy poodle or something like that.

Keep the peace?  

Dubbz... you'll never get peace w/ a young pup in the house

All you'll get is

barking
crying
baby talking
pooping
peeing
and walking the thing @ 1:17 a.m.


No more...

wild nights at uncle joes
driving the wrong way down one way streets
bowling nights
trips to boston to visit MIOH and watch the springfield game
extra cash for PBR or PBRL's... it will all go to Vet bills and chew toys

think long and hard before you give that salesman your mastercard my friend...
