Niagara versus Michigan

Posted in Just my Thoughts, School Sports, tagged , , , , , on 29 March 2008 | Leave a Comment »

If there is to be a Cinderella in a hockey tournament, it would be Niagara.  Of the 16 teams playing in the NCAA tournament this year, Niagara is seeded 15th.  They are up against the number one team in their region, a team that had only five losses all season and 32 victories.  Pretty daunting!

Clarkson versus St Cloud State

Lei and I wound, literally, our way through the will call line to get our tickets.  There was a slight problem as they had been purchased using Ed’s credit card but he was not there so we had a copy of it.  He had spoken to the ticket company and they had said this would [...]

Road Trip Day One

The day started out a bit slow.  Elise and I couldn’t leave home until the two school-aged boys had gotten on the bus.  Of course, due to the lovely spring weather in Binghamton, they had a two hour school delay.  It was rather icy out from the look out all windows in the house and [...]

I know you are all probably thinking I am nuts.  March is almost over, as I was reminded this morning by my mother who was wondering if March came in like a lion or a lamb as it is looking like it is going out like a lion. This month Sarah Ban Breathnach is discussing [...]

My college-aged daughter and I are heading on a road trip.  Yes, the trip is set to satisfy both of our college hockey fanaticism.  We may even get some shopping in on Saturday. Tomorrow morning, in what is suppose to be snow so very appropriate for hockey weather, my daughter and I will head to [...]

Canvas with Tissue Paper

With an online group, I am working my way through Mary Todd Beam’s Celebrate Your Creative Self.  The portion we were working on this month was to add tissue paper to an illustration board or canvas and then paint it.   The workshop leader was so smart and decided to break this into three weekly parts to [...]

Photography

While I am working my way through several art books for the Triple Eight Challenge for 2008, I have taken a month off most of these workings.  I spent most of March honing my photography skills.  I have some of my shots below. I have always spent a lot of time in the out of [...]

March Madness – For Real

Posted in Just my Thoughts, School Sports, tagged , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , on 21 March 2008 | Leave a Comment »

I am not sure if I am referring to the suddenly, totally white ground outside or the NCAA college basketball tournament.  Actually, I live in upstate NY.  I know I am referring to the tournament. I was excited as I drove home from the CHA Tournament last weekend and listened to the NCAA tournament selection [...]

This is truly a reprise of a post from many years ago on my Yahoo! 360 blog.  Unfortunately, I don’t want to go through all of those posts to find this so it will be a new post about the same topic. Most people believe that Christmas is the pivotal holiday in the Christian year.  [...]

The “Race” Card is Played

Posted in Just my Thoughts, Politics, tagged , , , , , , , , on 19 March 2008 | 1 Comment »

Of course, there are those out there who will say I have no right to talk about race.  I grew up in a town that had two black families and they weren’t looked on as black.  I am white, Anglo-Saxon.  But, now that the card has been played in the presidential campaigns, I am going [...]
