Now this is interesting...and some sad notes

It's kind of weird when you have something to occupy your mind...like work.  So for all those that I've been bugging, don't worry, I'll still think about you, just not as much.  I'm going to be busy starting my new gig tomorrow.  Don't get me wrong, some of you will still be in the forefront of my mind, it's just your place.
Know that I'm hoping and praying for all of you, for nothing but good things.  Some a little harder for than others.  Mostly, for good fortune (no, not money) and health.  That and the knowledge that someone out there gives a hoot!

Now, we had 4 people pass away yesterday in the world of sports and entertainment-we all lose something here.  Harry Kalas, the voice of the Phillies and NFL films, at 73.  My buddy G$ can do a spot-on impersonation, so it won't be completely lost.  Mark Fidrych, an All-Star and Rookie of the Year for the Tigers back in '76, died on his farm at 54.  Bruce Snyder, former head football coach at Arizona State, passed after fighting Cancer.  Lastly, Marilyn Chambers-who went from the cover of Ivory Snow to the porn industry, at age 56.  Isn't this all a bit young?

So, my heart goes out to the family and friends of these folks.  They were an important part to all sorts of people's lives, whether it be a day to day thing or a memory that still sits in your mind.

Just remember, it takes no time at all to pick up the phone and call someone, or email them, text them.  Just a hello can brighten up someone's day, you really have no idea.

Happy Tuesday!
