This is who I am...

Post by ZiggyZoomba »

I like to think I'm pretty good with words, but I don't think I could state it better than this....

Thank you, Jason Holland, for capturing this image... for capturing who I am.

Yup, that pretty much sums you up.

Excellent pic, Grant.

Thanks Mark... if you browse through the rest of them, I'm sure there's a couple you'll get a kick out of. And you know, I still haven't ever seen that boat.... almost 5 years... Can you believe it?

And Flip, I drank them both. :-(

Yeah, before I started realizing the "symbolism" and even the picture, I thought "you're an alcoholic? Great!"

Cool pics, though! :-D

Yeah. Five years. Unreal.



There is some good news, however. Dad wanted me to crack open his bottle of single malt scotch from The Balvenie. The amber brew of heaven was casked in June of 1981. She's 25 years old.

She's going to be nice and mellow........as will I be.

See? I knew that.

I watched the whole show. Couple [read: several] of observations:

*Merryellen is gorgeous and always has been. She's still got those big white teeth. I thought for SURE she would have gone through with that tooth reduction procedure.

*Are you ever going to start losing your hair? Yeah, I get the gray part. I just wish I had that problem. My hair ripens and proptly falls out. You b@stard!

*The half full and bone pics had me laughing out loud.

*The one image with the caption "but I have more to tell you" almost got me.......almost.

*Maryellen DID look like K Hepburn in that one image. Amazing. She's hot.

*I've always thought that the two of you made the greatest couple.

Hell of a way to tell a story, brother. It's an ideal way, if you ask me.

Grant,
Thanks for sharing those incredible pictures!! The one here on the forum is so neat. And I knew that was a picture of your Dad, too!! It just took my breath away when I opened the thread!! Thanks again, they're all just awesome.
"Regarding BGSU, I would think their biggest strength is that they never give up, They never slow down and they battle hard even after the other team scores. We have to be on our game and never, ever take the foot off the gas for a second."

"BG was relentless. It's like they know that a good first pass on the breakout from a defenseman will almost always result in an odd-man rush against them - but they go in anyway and dare you to make that pass. All three of their goals were just grit and effort. That's a team any fan can be proud to support...they give all they've got."
