Hey. I'm still happy. Orange you? dar-har-har! I've been somewhat lucky with my sports teams winning championships, or at least being there. The Rangers won a cup in 94, the Jays won back-to-back World Series in 92 & 93, the Bengals were in the SuperBowl in 89, and the Sixers were in the NBA Finals only 2 years ago, and the Orange made it to the championship game in 96. I've realized that I feel much more happiness for college kids winning. It's much more special to them, because they're not getting millions of dollars(yet), and this team that won wasn't a bunch of cocky jocks. They are all good kids and team players. So here's to the Cuse...

In addition, the Jays recently swept the Twins and beat the Sox last nite. Good comeback after starting the season 0-3. The Sixers are still in the running for first in the east as well.

I still haven't heard from my job possibility. I really hope this doesn't fold. I don't think I can take rejection...I also think I am sick of this cold weather. It's now April 9th and in the forties, with snow still on the ground...The GHT Game of the Week for Saturday has already been cancelled because of expected rain Friday night, and the cold weather all week, which will not allow the fields to dry out...

I started out my morning by turning on the TV at 10:30. ( I didn't get a call to sub again) I turned on CBS news and was drawn in to the coverage of the war. I saw US Marines tearing down a statue of the madman with Iraqi people stomping on its remains and dragging the head down the streets. Reporter Byron Pitts was with Marines fighting street battles in Baghdad and his report was outstanding. He was giving us coverage as the fighting was taking place, and it was even better than a Hollywood war movie.
