The aforementioned Halloween pictures are here
Congratulations Mom and Dad!
Mom and Dad both won their elections (to the School Board and Sewer District Board, respectively). Mom had the most votes out of the 4 candidates (for 3 spots), and Dad and another guy were the only two candidates on the ballot (for 2 spots).
So congratulations!
I’m sure the School District Superintendant is shaking in his boots.

After some peer pressure and mucho hardworko (is that right, Josh?), Laurie has created a pretty sweet blog. Check it out here.
More pictures of Elsie
I put up some more pictures of Elsie on my Picassa page.
Let me know if it doesn’t work; I can’t get it to come up on my computer, but Cass got it to work on hers.
Coming soon (as soon as I can get a new FireWire cable): Halloween pictures.
Even dookies wanna be Tar Heels

Picture clarification
So, in case you were thinking that picture was a phenomenal photshop job, sorry to disappoint, but that’s me sitting at the table in the media room. How many greats have sat at that same table? I was just playing around though. My real press conference was at the high school. Okay, so I didn’t really have a press conference. That IS me sitting at that table though.
On an unrelated note, Dan Patrick was talking about sports mulligans today (things that happened in sports that the principals would want to have a “do-over” for), and my submission made the cut to be read on-air, and posted on his website. The post is here right under the Ty Willingham pic. (WARNING: It’s a Sports Illustrated site, and one of the current banner ads that may pop up is to order your swimsuit calendar.) You have to fast forward to find it, but the audio is here here in hour 2, almost 3/4 of the way through, after the Charles Barkley segment. If you need a history lesson, let me know.
We’re related to her?
So I was messing around on ancestry.com and found this list of famous people we are vicariously related to through Grandpa Leo. Here’s the complete list:

Some of my favorites include George Orwell, JP Morgan, and Chaucer. Enjoy!
It’s official!
The contract has been signed, and I’m officially back in the saddle as an assistant coach with one of the local basketball teams.
OK, not that one. (That would be pretty sweet though, eh?)
In real life, I’m Varsity Assistant with CH High. Our mission is to “Renew the Tradition” as we aim to take a program that has won a total of 13 games over the last three seasons back to prominence (2 state championships in the 80’s). First day of practice is Monday. Go Tigers!
The Official Birthday post

Greatest Kindergarten Prospect
Here’s something that was on ESPN.com recently about a little kid who’s got some handles. Pretty crazy.
