Sad News

The last several days have been tough here.  Reggie found out that his dad was hospitalized on Friday (west coast time).  On Monday (here) he got everyting in motion at the Red Cross, to see if they could get him Emergency leave.  That came through on Monday night.  There was delay getting his paper work Tuesday morning, and he didn't get a flight out until 5pm here.  His dad was moved to ICU during that time, though I don't know when, and his dad died before his plane got there.   Please remember his family during this hard time.

This was the "game" we played at the last class. You can still see how some parents don't know which sport they are supposed to be playing with their child.

More warming up. Notice how some parents are confused as to what sport we are here to learn. This is supposed to be soccer, not basketball.

Fall Corn Fest

World stupidness

So one of the reports on the news today, was about Lance Armstrong facing the retesting of his frozen urine, from 1999.  So, if they do retest and he does have something show up that shouldn't have been there, then what.... he has only won 6 instead the 7 Tour de France races?  Big deal!  There are starving people all over the world, terrorists blowing up everything and wars going on everywhere, and we are supposed to care about Lance Armstrongs pee??!!  Please, could we work on ending world hunger and try to bring home our troups, instead of something that may or may not have happened almost 10 years ago??
