August 17 Week

I’m tired, stayed up til midnight the last 2 nights. Got Joel Norman staying with us for a few days while Becky visits Catherine in Memphis, where she is student teaching. Watched The Day the Earth Stood Still last night…pretty good. Did not watch The Hannah Montana Movie the night before, though I like the funny parts. We’ve gone the last few weeks with only the basic channels…no Disney, ESPN, Food Network, etc. Been a nice break from Disney.

Went to California Pizza Kitchen Tuesday night, instead of O’Charleys. It was Anna’s birthday, so she picked CPK. Father-in-law isn’t crazy about it, but mother-in-law likes it. Sunday night Ceil cooked, and Monday was tied up at the school open house, and we barely snuck in Moes.

After Millionaire we watched “Shaq Vs.” which was pretty funny. In a few weeks he goes up against Pujols…next week it’s volleyball with Trainer & Walsh. Steve Nash gave Regis his jersey last night…both he and Wynona both got pretty easy questions…

Which races combined, is the longest distance?

A. 20 5K races

B. 15 10K races

C. 10 half marathons

D. 3 marathons

If you have 4 shirts and 3 pair of pants, how many different shirt/pant combinations can you get?

A. 6

B. 8

C. 12

D. 16

Tonight we’re going to a local spot, the Paradise Grille, for Will’s team party. Ceil is itching to go out, she wants Outback.

Hopefully the Braves can keep it up this weekend, though they always struggle against the Marlins. KK has given up 3 ER or less in 17 of his last 19 starts, says Jim Powell. More on announcers, as I caught a little of the game on radio last night. Sometimes Sutton & Powell don’t seem to get along perfectly.

Of course I like the Falcon throwback unis. Hopefully they’ll wear them every year. Funny pictures on AJC.com. Interesting (and short!) article in Sports Illustrated about baseball cards, how the bottom has fallen out of the industry. Not much about football or basketball cards, where the market is worse.
