Go Stillers!

E has to work and I think I'm just hanging around the house for the big game. Might pop into the local 'cause I'm in the pool and the food ain't so bad. I've been in at least one Super Bowl pool every year for over 30 years. Have I ever won anything? No-o-o-o-o. If any of you guys are good at math - try to figure out if that violates any laws of probability.

The last few years are sort of deja vu all over again as it relates to you youngsters. When your dads and moms were your age, the Steelers were busy winning 4 Super Bowls in 6 years. It didn't make us any better or smarter (it was parenthood that made us this brilliant) but it was a lot of fun to watch. Kinda cool to see it happening again.

Ride Board

Is everybody OK for transportation to Gettysburg? We might have room for one more outbound, provided he or she is well mannered and, you know, self contained, but on the return, we may be heading down Baltimore way.

ANYWAY, need ride or have ride, use the ol' blogarooski here.

Cell phone blues

I lost one cell phone in Myrtle Beach (salt water really murders 'em) and its replacement was last seen in the tiny little clutches of one Marin Virginia Murphy, who has so far held up under questioning although I haven't tried waterboarding yet. Anyway, I now have cell phone #3 up and running, so would anybody who has my number please give me a call so I can reconstitute my directory? If I don't answer, leave me a message so I can match a name to the number. Thanks!

Let them eat bread......

Loaves and fishes: Pymatuning carp get feeding reprieve
Thursday, September 18, 2008
The Associated Press
LINESVILLE, Pa. -- State conservation officials are delaying a ban on an odd "family tradition" in northwestern Pennsylvania: feeding bread to the carp at Pymatuning State Park.

The ban was to begin Jan. 1 but will be delayed a year for further study.

More than 300,000 people come to the park's Linesville Spillway each year because carp throng so thickly for the bread that ducks can walk on the fish.

State officials had previously said they wanted to allow only fish food pellets because bread and other food harmed the fish.

The state now says the primary concern is helping the U.S. Department of Agriculture control the geese population. Bread draws the geese, too, and the USDA won't curb their population if people are feeding them.
