Well I survived the 6th graders! But now have to contend with the IRS! Since I spent all day away from the office, I have to get something done. Will row tomorrow.

Barbara,

Great game tonight. Reminds me of the greatest Celtic team every. i.e. Larry,kevin,Chief,Danny,Dennis. Did I mention Larry went to my college, ISU. My Dad was actually a good friend of his. I have a few Bird stories stored in the archives. Where lucky enough to tape the celebration of Larry's 50th birthday with his 50 greatest moments? I have it on my HDVR but don't know how to get to my computer so I can make a DVD. Any puter geeks out there that have an idea?

BTW you better watch out for Chris she is a sneaky one.

Chris,

You better watch out for Barbara she's a sneaky rower. Unlike me who was in your face all the time. LOL

Just trying to stir the puddin'.

No HM today, hit the wall. One tomorrow is forth coming. I am down to 189 lbs. and have my annual tomorrow, so I thought I would do HM and not eat or drink and see if I could move my MDs scales off 210.

Gina,

I got your message too late . . . I couldn't log onto my computer for a couple of days since my keyboard was wrapped in duct tape. Don't know what that's about. :?

I know how those ranking changes mess up your master spread sheet, Jan ... so, now that my friend Barbara is doubtless asleep on the east coast ... I'll throw down the extra 1,500 meters needed to maintain status quo! Anything to help out. :lol: (I just finished making panna cotta for a dinner party tomorrow ... I think those proposed meters will be r-e-a-l gentle so all the cream I've been sampling doesn't curdle.)

Have a great weekend, Loons!

I didn't get a chance to post my meters yesterday - I'm under 30 and holding! AJ seems to have blown right by me -- go for it! Enjoy, but remember I'm a tortise, not a hare.

ETA for 1 million is 5-14.

Gina

PS GO LAKERS - it would be nice to see the CELTS and the LAKERS in the finals. Just like old times.

Nice day's rowing, Boston! Those 3 extra hours won't do me any good today ... company just left, and it's 11:55 pm ... you're just too far ahead tonight! (The Concept time seems to be an hour off ... it shows 10:55pm, so I guess it's ignoring daylight savings.)

Thx for the avatar compliment. AJ drew that a while back, and I just decided to make it a thumbnail.
