A Wrapup

"Out Stealing Horses" Great title, though I didn't particularly like the book.

One sportswriter (at least) has renamed Tiger Woods, Cheetah Woods. That's clever.

Saw the biographical movie "Milk" about Harvey Milk the gay activist. Sean Penn is spectacular in the title role.

Tim Tebow jerseys jumping off the shelves faster than any rookie jersey in NFL history. Imagine how well they will sell if he actually turns out to be a decent pro player.

Yers Truly headed to chiropractor to address lingering back pain that keeps him from shooting record low scores at the golf course. Sure it does. I mean what else could it be?

Ulbaldo Jimenez. Rockies pitcher. Great name to say aloud. Ou-bahl-dough He-main-ess.

Sunny mornings, wet afternoons. The rainy season already?

Got our car registered for 2010. License plates expire this month but new ones, I'm told, won't be available until July. Have to tape an explanatory document to back window to prevent getting pulled over. What's with that? In some U.S. states, plates are manufactured in prisons. If that's the case here, maybe we need to throw more people in the slammer to keep up with production.

My Bud, the Old Redneck, being treated for Dengue Fever but may have been misdiagnosed. Docs are now saying he has Mono. Also possible he has both. Needless to say, he is suffering.

"What the Dog Saw" by Malcolm Gladwell is an excellent compilation of his columns from The New Yorker. Each one is an interesting and entertaining little gem. Malcolm can make any subject a fun read.

Our dog Raffi just peed on our bed. I don't know what he saw to inspire that, but Woowoo Charly is not a happy camper. I screamed and hollered and made a big fuss, but although Raffi made a beeline to the backyard, he doesn't seem too upset. Where is Cesar Milan when you need him?

As the sun rises slowly into the sky because it has nowhere else to go, and the clouds drift by on their way to somewhere else, probably New Jersey, the Lone Blogger eases back in his chair, surveys his work and declares it finished. "Hey" he says, it's better than nothing."

Or is it?
