Quick Hits

Kyle's game was pretty bad on Saturday. First loss of the season, 8-11... and it really wasn't that close. The other team lit Kyle up, hitting the corners; his team didn't help by giving up 5 man-down situations (and they scored on all five). The only good thing that might come out of it is that the team might be humbled and hungry going into the tournament. And that's a good thing. [I'll have more to say about the concept of sport later...]

On Sunday, there was a new news article about the aftermath of a local school shooting back in February (way too local... it happened at Kyle's school). It's a pretty ticklish subject around here, with people divided over whether to try the shooter as a juvenile or an adult, whether to ask for the death penalty, etc. When all this hit, I was in a lull of blogging, so I'll need to hit that one as well (as well as discussing what I thought I might write on a more fictional level... much like that devil detective lead).

I've finished uploading my Journal of a Short-Timer... I'm reading over an entry a day and adding comments... you can, too.

Work is waiting... so that's it for now...

ok, maybe not... I'm looking over at the survey at right... wow, McCain's kicking Obama's ass... ('especially since Lisa and I both vote for Obama)... hmm, is it that this is a military town? or that there's a legitimate fear of Obama (as he's new and "untested")? or that Hillary and Obama have been beating the shit out of one another and thus letting McCain look VERY attractive for the time being? Interesting... Pennsylvania's tomorrow night, and Obama has already predicted victory... for Hillary... yep, this will all get very interesting...
