Hi there. That number which headlines this entry says it all and speaks major volumes. It's the money raised by the kids at South Glens Falls High School during this years' marathon dance. With so many headlines that have to do bullying, budget cuts, shootings and other bad things happening in our schools recently, isn't it nice to know that the majority of the kids are good ones and we need more good stories like that and about them to balance out the bad. Think about this. 40 people or groups will be helped by those kids.
On to other things. It was one long day Saturday. Up at 4:30am to be on air and doing the Hits thing I do once a week from 6am to 9am. Then following a short break, high school hockey in Lake George at 3:30pm followed by a basketball game at the Civic Center shortly after the hockey game ended on WWSC. Talk about being tired. I was on fumes driving home around 9pm. Not having to go to Utica this weekend is the only positive in Queensbury's tough loss last weekend. Any high school sports broadcasts we do these last two weeks will be only a 5 to 10 minute drive. Amen!
Speaking of Amen. It seems the only people who manage to find my home with no problem are the ones who want to know if I've embraced the good lord as my savior. They must have a special GPS or Google maps thing, or my friends have no desire to drive the minimum of 20 minutes to find me, lol.
Dennis Rodman playing diplomat? If any one could possibly becomes friends with that, "one Brazil nut or cashew short of a mixed nut can" leader of North Korea, why not the Worm.
Kanye West three years after dissing Taylor Swift at the MTV video music awards still won't shut up about it. Kim Kardashian left Kris Humphries for this genius and is carrying his child? To quote Dan Miner, Kanye "Let it go already!"
Love this story from Milwuakee where one of the sausage costumes that the Brewers use during their famous in between innings race, while appearing at a curling event, ended up being stolen. Who ever did it, put on the costume, went to bars and other places and took photos with patrons. It was eventually returned. See another reason why curling is addictive to watch during the Winter Olympics.
First it was Gangum Style and now the Harlem Shake. What the heck are they in the first place? People are posting 4 thousand Harlem Shake videos on YouTube a day!
Being a listener to various sports talk radio stations, if any coach other than Duke's Mikey K had spoken up about kids storming the court and the fear for his players' safety, would the hosts have made such a big deal about it and made it a hot button issue ? I don't think so.
It was nice to see and hear conservative hot air bag Sean Hannity humbled by that Minnesota congressman on his tv show last week.
I may not be watching hockey, but its hard not to notice the Chicago Blackhawks' 22 game point streak without a regulation loss to start this abbreviated schedule.
Giving some props to the Edinburgh Scotland zoo and their attempts to get the Panda's to mate. Pumping Marvin Gaye's classic "Let's Get it On" in the cage. Now that's what I'm talking about!
Finally, its way too soon to start thinking about the 2013 high school football season, but the first draft schedule was released last week. Yes, I looked at it. Guilty as charged...Leccese out.
