Tuesday

I had good intentions of posting on Sunday, but it just didn't happen.

The Augie game on Saturday night was exciting, but ended in a bad result for the good guys. A five point loss in OT.

This is the new hanging scoreboard (reflecting the halftime score and the time remaining in halftime). Very cool. Although not quite as easy to read at this point as the old scoreboard that required a redirection of vision, but not a straining of the neck to look upwards.

The halftime entertainment remains a bit iffy. A girls dance team at a religious-oriented school has some choreography challenges given the contemporary norms in song and dance. (Those American Music awards recipients last weekend were all outside of my knowledge-base except for the country groups.) At least the costumes for this performance didn't look like they came from Strippers-R-Us.

The college gave recognition to a couple of Trustees whose companies made special contributions to offset the costs of the scoreboard, new seating, and general refurbishment of the gym. My pal Roy also was recognized, but quietly after the game (at his request). I jumped into the picture to add flavor. What do you think of the new jacket?

2 and I went to the Augie game tonight as well. The result was better, but the competition was quite a bit lower. It should be a good year for the home team. They're fun to watch.

Hope the travels for 1, 1.1 and 3 go safely tomorrow. I'll make sure that we have some good vino for the lasagna at Mom's.
