ha!

u should try it DH. forget all those other cloudy, clunky, stinky, stoney ways and hit a pen one of these days. you'll be like "what's the big deal??".

volcano vaporizor, pshhhhh...thanks but i think we're past all that.

i try to pass the days feeling twitterpated. travelling.

frisbee, family.

and affairs.

Groundhog skeet is one of my favorite summer sports. That's where you have

a friend who is tough, and very, very quick, to reach down in the groundhog hole,

grab em, yank em out, and throw em up in the air so I can shoot em.

I thought maybe I could talk old Canton Mike into it, but to no avail. He was busy.

We are going whitewater rafting and horseback riding in Tennessee in a few weeks with friends

from NC. And hiking. And sight-seeing...

And gardening, which is a very tough endurance sport. I snapped a rotator cuff about 3 years ago, in

a rain at night, on a tomato hornworm event. I sumo-wrestled a few mosquitoes that must have been

from Texas.... but that is too dangerous, so now when I'm out in the garden after a big rain, I just

keep an eight foot 2X4 with me as a mosquito swatter.

With all the rain, I could take up kayaking in the low area below the garden, and if I could figure out

how to put pontoons on our 700 Kawasaki ATV, I could ride out the old road through our big woods,

that cross the watershed that floods across the road in big rains.

In the rainstorms, our other sport is playing video games on the game computer, or if I'm home alone,

watching TV and re-reading my Calvin and Hobbes collections...

but nothing beats watching the Browns in the fall. It's a tough wait, but it goes fast.

Baseball keeps me occupied. Baseball might be the perfect game.

Fishing and the beach is where its at this time of year. For me a week long Canadian wilderness fishing trip in two weeks and two weeks after that a week in Riviera Maya.

I'd spend two weeks in Naya Rivera.

She was like 5, and we were lucky enough to have THAT coach. You know the one. Woulda been a great high school boys football coach, but instead he got a bunch of 5 year old girls. Always yelling and screaming, using the lord's name in vain and shit. That guy was awesome.

Between that and youth soccer boring the hell outta me, it was one and done.

Fastpitch softball is where it's at. But l like baseball. And they're similar.

my youngest just finished his baseball season with a 13 - 1.record. its a blast watching these kids develop. he crushed one last week that we are still talking about. I am going to help him mold his game after Manny Sanguillen. he was my hero growing up

I like baseball, but when it starts getting this close to training camp i can't think about much else other than the Cleveland Browns and how THIS could be THE year.
