I don’t like that Starocci got the chance for 5 titles. I don’t like that anyone has a 5th year, that;s just not right. Hendrickson was the logical choice in my opinion.

I’ll let you know how the fishing goes word.

My wife is increasing the size of our garden. Plus putting in a deer fence. We were able to get 3 posts in. Our ground apparently was either a glacier field or they filled the ground with river rock. We bought an auger and it keeps bucking on rocks big and little. We have to use a trenching shovel to get the rocks out. 6-8 inch long.…[Read more]

Yeah, that’s right in your backyard! Should be fun.

My best friend in college did the same playing flag football and softball. Big scar. I don’t know if he can tell the weather but I believe it. My mom could tell when the weather was changing and was 100% correct. Somehow she could sense the barometric pressure changes. She had…[Read more]

I agree about Taylor. He took a program that wasn’t supposed to be top 5 and made them top 5. I’d say he did a great job this year. He will have to keep it up and improve next year to solidify his status I think.

Looking forward to Vegas. I used to go when I did Veterans wrestling and that was a fun time. I really enjoyed being there…[Read more]

My brother texted me about that match saying the announcers were out of their minds with this win. I kind of feel bad for Gable, he has had a number of disappointments with WWE and NFL, this is really amazing. I watched the last 45 seconds or so of the match. I thought Gable would get away right at the end but Hendrickson held on for the…[Read more]

I can’t do that. I watch it during the day but not in the evening.

I did think it interesting that #1 and #2 at 125 both lost in the quarters. PSU lost in the lightest two weights. Lilledahl fell. I haven’t looked since they were at 141 so I will have to look at that word.

Well I hope not. That would not be good news. It is fairly close to Mt St Helens. It has been quaking as well over the years. But increased activity is always something to watch closely word.

You know, I don’t have any ash from that. I do know that the year after was a bumper crop of apples because the ash would allow the water go get to the ground but it prevented the water from evaporating. So the apple trees had more water at their root system. I did a research paper on that in college. It wasn’t the minerals, silica doesn’t…[Read more]

I don’t live near there. But I hadn’t heard that. I had heard there are rumblings on Mt Rainier. I’ll check out Mt Adams.

We have a bunch of volcanoes here in PNW. I remember when Mt. St. Helens blew, I was a teen just east of Seattle. That was a big deal. Lots of people dead. Many steamed and melted. Others washed away with…[Read more]

I’ve seen some traffic about this kid on the intermat forums. Unless they are going to put him in jail, I think they should let him wrestle. If he could be out on bail in time for the state tourney, he should be able to wrestle. I don’t mind the assault charge, but if he gets out on bail he is free to move around as he pleases legally, and I…[Read more]

Yes, it has happened rather rapidly. Similar in Seattle. Seattle was known as the emerald city for 50 years. But since about 10 years ago, it has rapidly declined. Same thing, what was a felony is now a misdemeanor, no cash bail, letting people go after arraignment. It is just crazy. Why is this happening word?

Petting farms are good. We didn’t run into any trouble. I did hear today that a Brooklyn McDs now no longer allows minors younger than 20 in the place without a parent and ID. Apparently, the place was a shambles as the kids ran amok. Robbing, stealing, knifings, fightings, harrassment, now are all gone and the place is much quieter. Its…[Read more]

Spent the day at the zoo not seeing many animals. However a silverback gorilla semi half heartedly pounded on the glass, so that was exciting. They are big!! Overall a good day, but the 2 and 5 year olds held out better than my wife and I. We figured 2 hours and that would be it. I think we were there for 4 and 1/2 hours word.

Our State tournament happened this weekend. The HS I used to asst coach at had 9 guys and 1 gal that went. All lost two, one made it to the semis and then lost the semis and lost his next two matches pretty badly. He did real well to get to the semis, and then tanked. But the guy that beat him in hte semis toasted him, and that guy got…[Read more]

Actually feels kind of warm here. Lows in 40s and highs in 50s. But with that is lots of wetness word.

Had a great weekend. It snowed a little on Friday, just a dusting . My wife and I went to Ballard (a neighborhood in north Seattle) and that was fun. had a great weekend. Congrats on the 36 lber. going up a weight class and an age group is a lot harder at 36 than at 176, not that I would know. I wrestled at 115 my senior year word.

We have a basement workout room. Universal gym, squat station, treadmill (not used much) and exercise bike ( used everyday). We do have a rowing machine that would be a good work out, but my shoulders are no good right now and I don’t see that helping at this time. But maybe when they get fixed I can do that word.

My son got influenza A which is even worse. My wife has been down for a good 4 days, with 3 more not feeling well. Not sure about today.

What a beatdown yesterday. It was brutal on KC. I am an Alabama fan and was happy for Jalen Hurts word.

Earlier this week it warmed up melted snow and then froze. I slid down to the main road, that was scary. But that is mostly clear now. They have either closed school or started 2 hours late every day this week except today. Heating the classroom (our garage) for preschool is tough, those poor space heaters are having a difficult time…[Read more]

We have about 3 inches of snow and 2-3 inches more are supposed to come. Finally some snow word.
