Great quote! I'm writing that one down. And Son of Sam, I remember him all too well. When he was on his rampage in NYC, I was traveling there a lot on business, & I remember just how terrified people were to go out at night.

Reminds me of a cousin....she was in the hospital scheduled for open heart surgery in the morning. The assistant surgeon came in the night before to give her a run down about it. He was this little boy that she had taught to read in the first grade. He grins and tells her that he always remember her and the way he was taught to read. To her, he was still that little kid, but to him, She was still very important because of that one year many years ago.

I didnt know the Phillies were doing so well this season. Im surprised my son hasnt called to gloat. Poor guy is a die hard Phillies and Bills fan and he has always hoped one or the other will have a winning season before he kicks the bucket. Maybe this year.......

Hello, Happy B-day Tikanas! Looks kinda quiet this week, everyone must be getting ready for the big back to school coming soon. I dont want to rant too much about yet another crappy vacation, but having the last 3 now get rained out is making me wonder who I made so angry to deserve it. We had a nice Friday, setup camp, went for an evening horseback ride, then had a campfire. Saturday we tubed the river in the morning, then dealt with showers all afternoon and into the night. I brought my portable dvd player, so we watched a movie and played cards. Sunday we got up and it was pouring so my friend packed up and left, and because some of my stuff was under his tarp I had to pack up most of my stuff too. I decided to pack up the rest of it and go out for breakfast and see if I could get the forcast. It called for rain all day and into the night so I gave up and just went home. Monday the weather seemed to break so I drove back up to check out the Polar caves, they forcasted sun all afternoon. But of course when I got up into the mountains it started to rain on me. So I drove home and called it a vacation. I ended up playing golf with my dad tue and wed and stayed local. I had a good time golfing but never got to hike or kayak and its depressing. I dont like to do things alone, esp go on vacation, but bit the bullet and did it and feel like I got slapped in the face. Sorry Im just over tired and sick of life right now, nothing is going well and im having a hard time finding any reason to care anymore... Think I'll end it here before I suck anymore joy from your day. Take care and have a good weekend, im working to make up for my vacation days.. /sigh. John
