Hello Sports Fans

I haven't posted a rant in quite some time, and I guess its because of some deeply personal changes in my life over the past year. But, have no fear, rumors of my demise are false. I will be adding much more to the site soon.

First, a few changes....seems im better at work than relationships. Work is going great. relationships, well.....work is going Great!

I lost my dad to cancer last October, and it hasnt quit hurting at all yet. He was Superman to me, and for disease to strike him down so hard and fast like it did, it gave me a true glimpse of my own mortality. Hello, wake up call. As for what I can do with the rest of my life that will actually be meaningful to anyone once im gone, I guess that remains to be seen. I guess we all just want to be remembered in a good light.

Jeni and I were able to spend some quality time together this summer, even under some trying conditions. The picture is taken at one of the overlooks on the New River Gorge Bridge in West Virginia. One of our stops on a long weekend. We explored my famlies past and visited her potential future on that trip and im sure we will both remember it forever.

I would like to loose 50 pounds, and i'd like to do it without changing my diet, or increasing excercise regimes or sacrificing what just seems like everything good. So, anyone with the dont do anything different and loose 50 pound diet, please send it to me!

OK, Thats enough for tonight, you all have a great week.

A Time for farewell

Dear Dad,

Its been 5 months now and I still await your voice in the night for some crazy reason. I speak to you at the oddest of times, still thinking you can hear me through the night rain or morning sun. I haven't deleted your telephone number from my cell list either, and I really have no plan to. I cant believe that the rock in my life really is gone and yet all too well I know its really true.

What is odd for me, I know you were there when my son died, and when my world has been at its darkest points, you were willing to judge yet love unconditionally, something so few ever can learn to do. I learned so much, even though you never set out to be a teacher. Instead, you just lived your life, as yourself, always seemingly confident in who you were, and you really didn't care how others thought of you. They could be your friend, or not. your door never closed to someone in need, even though many discounted your faithfulness.

I guess by now you know what is next, and oh how I wish you could tell me, but i guess that its against the rules. I still hope that your rebel spirit will see fit to break the rules, just like old times. I still wonder if you felt the pain, and hope you didn't. I wonder about the fires, the last minutes, the false friends who forced their decisions, and how that played a part in your final days. I wonder why you chose to be alone, or if you really were. I look in on Robbie more often now, I don't know why, I just do. I am trying to learn more about the past now also, even though I don't know who to share it with.

I'm sure many who deal with death have the same questions, the same unknowns, the same challenges to keep going, I'm not the only soul who seeks answers and does not take blind faith as a solution to life's unknowns. And I guess I will be the same way about deaths unknowns also. I have my own beliefs, and theories, and I hear others too, yet there seems to be such a big piece missing.

I miss you, I wish I could still call just to see whats going on, and I miss seeing that big red truck delivering you for a visit from the road. I hope you have found the freedom again that you had in your journeys on the road here. I hope you have wings to let your spirit soar and see everything you ever wanted to see. I hope your next life brings everything you ever can imagine. And , last of all, I hope you find Love again, in every moment.

Safe Journeys Dad

The Sky Is Falling

Hello sports fans,

Long time, no post. Well, alot has been going on and so rather than a recourse, Ill just start again.

Last Night (March 29th) at about 9:45 pm, a loud booming sound was heard over a rather large portion of the eastern seaboard, some accounts say a light or streaking light preceeded the loud noises. So......Henny Penny may have just been right all along, because no one else has a clue as to what the heck happened (or is willing to divulge, for the conspiracy theorists among us).

all the local television stations, the majority of radio and even syndicated news and UFO sights are validating the reports, yet not one photo, sound byte, video clip or government explanation. The Weather service has disproved any weather related phenomeon, the Navy and Air Force report no unusual activiry, and weather radars had no tracking of any event at the time, yet thousands of reports to 911, news outlets and the national weather service have netted not a clue.


Interestingly odd, this area bosts some of the most recognizable tracking systems the world knows of (Langley is down the friggin street.....) , No less than 7 military bases, Three International Airports, National Weather and NOAA National Headquarters, The CIA>>>>all within a 100 mile radius, but these bureaus remain silent as they let the media speculate.

The most common theory is that of the local weather personalities of a meteor. Top Story Indeed. Details at 11 (or not).

Stumped? I dare say "The sky IS falling".
