Coach accused of exposing buttocks after soccer loss!

I guess this is more proof that soccer is a sorry sport, unless Duke's team make the final four or wins the national championship. I wonder if the coach was english, since their fans are famous for being crazy about the sport (and streaking at wimbledon, wembley stadium, etc).

Full-tilt fun at the NC State fair!

The NC State Fair opened over the weekend. I have only been once, on a field trip at NKCA. I hate fairs and believe that they are a big waste of money. I guess if I would have graduated from South Rowan, then I may have a different opinion. I would prefer to spend my money on real amusements like Cedar Point, Carowinds, etc.

Congress considers Concord a third world city! LOL

This is awesome! I've always known that Concord was sick, but I had no idea it was so bad that you need the following shots to visit:

hepatitis A
hepatitis B
tetanus
diphtheria
influenza

I know that concord is inferior to KANNAPOLIS, but I had no idea that they were basically a third world city. I'm sure glad the "Battle for the Bell" will be played in Kannapolis this year.

"Jack Bauer" to Do Jail Time on DUI Charge!

It's so dry in North Carolina that

Forgetful???

Ed was in trouble. He had forgotten his wedding anniversary. His wife was really angry. She told him, "Tomorrow morning I expect to find a gift in the driveway that goes from 0 to 200 in less then 6 seconds AND IT BETTER BE THERE!!"

The next morning Ed got up early and left for work. When his wife woke up she looked out the window and sure enough there was a box, gift-wrapped in the middle of the driveway. Confused, the wife put on her robe, ran out to the driveway, and brought the box into the house. She opened it and found ....




a brand new bathroom scale.

Ed has been missing for over a week.

It sounds like "Jack Bauer" could end up in jail if he is found guilty of violating his probation for a 04 DUI. I guess he will be starring in a prisonbreak spin off if this happens. I guess people will never learn to not "drink and drive".

18 Years Ago Today...

Hugo, a category 4 Hurricane, struck Charleston SC and continued inland all the way to Charlotte. Hugo was the most costly hurricane to ever hit the US at that time. I was in Columbia, SC when Hugo struck and I have memories that I will never forget. The howling wind, watching transformers blow up and light the Columbia skyline, and driving around in my VW Beetle a few hours that night as the wind and rain arrived.

Lousy performance warrants fan exodus!

Jeremy and I did stay til the bitter end of that game. I was so excited when Jeremy invited me on Thursday to go to this game. The Panthers had a chance to start 2-0 and grab the division with their next three games (Falcons, Bucs, and Saints). We built a 14-0 lead but then the wheels came off that wagon. It was Deja Vu, since the last game that we saw at Panther Stadium, started the same way. I hope that the next time I go to a Panther game that the Panthers get behind 14-0 and we may just win that one.
