I headed out to the ballgame last night with my brother-in-law and his wife, along with the other brother-in-law. The game itself was awful with the Astros losing to the Nationals 7-0. It was one of those nights where nothing could go right for the home crowd. The bad luck even extended to the stands. [...] I continue to be amazed at the number of people who read this blog. Yesterday we set a new record for daily hits with 111 hits. We passed 5000 hits a couple of weeks ago, and passed 6000 last week. Thanks to all of you who stop by this, my little pothole on the information [...] As if we haven’t had enough stuff going on, we are in the process of buying an almost new car.

I had to go out Jersey for the beginning of the week, and then fell ill Wednesday evening, so I haven’t had a lot of time this week. Anyway, this morning I had a weird email from FNBO Direct. As many of you know, FNBO Direct is [...] OK, I just had to vent on this.
