Wide World of Sports

As reported in the New York Times, doctors now believe that Lou Gehrig may not have had Lou Gehrig disease after all, but actually had Bobby Pippen disease, a little known minor league ballplayer who once said he was the unluckiest man on the face of the earth.

Brete Favre announced he is going to play another year for the Minnesota Vikings but unfortunately it was overshadowed by the return of Mickey Mantle to the New York Yankees and the release of the tour dates this year for Elvis Presley, Buddy Holly and Bill Haley and His Comets.

Roger Clemens just got indicted for lying to Congress.  A hearing by the way that only took place because he insisted on having it.  Pretty obvious that "The Rocket" is certainly no rocket scientist.

Here is a real sport for you.  Dr. Laura is quitting her radio show.  This is a quote from the Larry King Show. "I want to be able to say what's on my mind and in my heart and what I think is helpful and useful without somebody getting angry".  Yeah, good luck with that.  Maybe the good Dr. should try opening her mind instead of her mouth.
 Rod Blogojevich, the former Governor of Illinois was found Not Guilty on 23 of the counts charged against him, but was found GUILTY of having a really BAD hair day, everyday of his life.

They announced at the SETI Convention in Mountain View Ca, this week that we should make contact with aliens by the year 2025.  The message they are sending out is "Greetings from Earth.  When visiting, we advise you to avoid Arizona at this time."

Today's good read is They're Watching by Gregg Hurwitz.  This is a real page turner about a screenwriter who's movie becomes all to real.      Stay tuned for future adventures
