For those of you who may have missed NPR Weekend Edition today, I think you should listen to this. I think its great when NPR does cool rah-rah Air Force pieces, letting us listen to the sound of freedom, and encourages young kids to grow up to be fighter pilots. Too bad they'll all be out of a job one day...
Also featured on NPR this morning, this little gem (Rated-PG):
Who knew He-Man would be so popular again? Even Liesel thought this was funny! There are, like, 10 episodes of this!
And now, what you've all been waiting for:
Last week we drove to Chicago to help Mitzi move into her new apartment. Mitzi lives near a cool coffee shop, Cafe Ballou, so Robert I and found time to show our patronage by sampling their espresso. Also, we all ate breakfast there on Sunday. It was a fun trip had by all, especially when sangria and margaritas were involved. And do you know what the closest church is? That's right, St. Helen! Just like our parish! So that was fun.Later in the week we went to see the Cincinnati Reds play at Great American Ballpark. For a 7 PM game, it was 97 F at first pitch - the hottest game on record! We drank lots of water (I drank beer) and let Dominic sit in his own seat:
We played Moundball (the mound was hot! Liesel won 5 times!) and enjoyed a Reds victory over the Dodgers.Today is less hot than it has been all week, so I get to clean the house, change oil in the car, maybe wash the car, and we may even make it out to Carriage Hill Farm to show Dom some barnyard animals. Who knows?! The Days are just Packed!
Oh, and I just posted my reading list over on the side bar --> Let me know if you have any suggestions, just leave them in the comments.
And as always, you can find our pictures in the online album.

Thanks for the movie to entertain Mary Ann! Oh WOW--first comment!!!
Okay, so maybe you should include ratings with the video you posts??? Now Mary Ann is throwing a fit about not getting to watch the "bad word" video and having to count to 20.
I watched 2 episodes of "Skeletor" and maybe I'm just missing the point - or maybe Liesel just built it up so much...like "Galaxy Quest". Oh well :). I'm making a "thank you" cd for the moving crew - any requests :)??
The theme from 'He-Man,' definitely.
I agree with Mitzi--lame-o with a capital L and that rhymes with....uh.
As far as the CD: Torn, Part of your World (we have it if you don't want to buy it), Bubbly, In the Ghetto, some Elvis song
Just watched the "briss" episode of Seinfeld. References to pigman, the Godfather, and circumcision. It was pretty good =)
I totally bought "Part of Your World" last night...shoot! I'll get the others...hmmm, I don't know about He-Man...well see.
And the "briss" episode was just on TV...it was awesome w/ a capital A!
