Long few weeks...




Sorry about not keeping this Blog current...had a busy few weeks...lost a couple very good friends....Mr. Thanos and his son Mark did the unthinkable thing...the saved a young boy from drowning and they lost their lives saving him...You both will be missed.


That is what HERO'S do


We had huge rain storms and were about 15 feet from having a pond pour into our home....it would have dried out quickly as I would have lit a match and torched it to the ground....these poor people who lost everything...but mother nature controls the weather!! So all is well here..dried out and just sitting back watching the leaves fall....and in a few days will see if that happen to the White Sox. I hope not!!
3 home games left and it's do our die...
I will be signing my book Saturday at the park on the outfield concourse...stop by and chat or buy a early gift for someone for the holiday's..it's a good read..not long..good bathroom book!!!!!!!! My line has been I am the only guy who wrote a book who has not read a book!!



So much going on as of late...been missing my son who is down in FL going to Golf school....sounds like fun huh...I hope he is getting better...as for me I am working on a new News letter for my charity as well as updating my web site...I wish I had better skills to do it..THANKS MIKE!! but one day I will,..guess I might have to read a book 1st.
Hey give me a shout out sometime...I am heading to breakfast soon..until later!


Ciao'

If I build it you can sit !!!


Hey is it raining...mercy me..grass needs cutting, pond is almost in my front yard..shoes are wet-as I stepped in puddle!!! I guess that is what happened when you walk the dog at 4:30am..can't see where they are...shoot!!!!!!
Take a look at the bench I made for our President....hope to be sending it off soon to him...maybe to Texas or DC...but do not want it packed away in the archives for ever....maybe his future Presidential Library..or if he just wants to autograph it I will use it as an web site auction item....
I am sure if he and the 1st lady sign it, it would bring some good money in to my charity.
I guess we have a couple more days of rain...that sucks...but better than 100 mph winds and big floods....I know one thing..I have the extra sub-pump ready for a wet basement..that would just make me go crazy if that happens...stay dry...and help someone out if they need it..
