  1. Here’s a statement from the Raiders… “The Baltimore Ravens have backed out of our trade agreement for Maxx Crosby. We will have no further comment at this time.” Ouch!! **Update just in: Ravens backed out of Maxx Crosby trade due to medical concerns from his physical!! Double Ouch!!
  2. Happy Birthday, Mr. Norris!!
  3. No bunkai until Shodan is so alien to me. But what’s even more alien to me is that bunkai without resistance. If your dojo includes live sparring with unpredictable attacks, pressure tested applications of kata , and training against resistant opponents at close range, then your doing karate as it was meant to be!! Effectiveness requires testing!! Imho.
  4. Raiders also finally got rid of Geno Smith. Now, if my Cowboys would follow suit by getting rid of Dak Prescott, my life would be sweeter. In addition, why are the Raiders building their payroll from the Seahawks?!? Surely they can shop around somewhere else.
  5. Tons of people that must have more money then they can shake a stick at because I see sold-out stadiums everywhere. Nothing will ever change in my lifetime so I will continue to watch the NFL on my tv. Oh well!!
  6. Yeah, not good. Knights have lost 3 games straight. Not good at all. My thing is that I don’t get my dandruff up until the all-star break, except for the NFL because the NFL doesn’t have an all-star break.
  7. Thanks, Brian; I hope exactly like you and others!!
  8. Doctor said that it could be due to a lack of calcium over a person’s lifetime. She didn’t want to say much more until all test results are in. I’ve drank an oceans worth of milk my entire life!!
  9. I believe I already answered that.
  10. The Knights are back on the ice tonight to take on the Buffalo Sabres. This could be a pivotal part of the season. If the Knights lose and Ducks win, the Knights will no longer be in first place. Both the Knights and the Ducks face tough opponents tonight. Buffalo is one of the hottest teams on the ice in the league. The Ducks take on the Avalanche, who have the best record in the entire league. The Knights did just played the Kings last night. Knights may be tired. Knights will have to play without their captain, Mark Stone. Knights HC, Cassidy, said that Stone is currently day to day due to an upper body injury he sustained in Sunday’s game Shute Penguins. Puck drop is set for 4:00pm in Buffalo. If they lose, they’ll have to watch and see the Ducks win, and that games goes off 7:00pm. But you know, my Knights coming off of that 5 nothing shut out where they were on the losing end in Pittsburgh. So, my Knights need to get things back in their winning ways. GO KNIGHTS!!
  11. We both keep fighting the good fight; that’s all we have to do…you at 73 and me at 68!! I just wish the best for us and everyone else that’s fighting something. I’d like to live in my 90’s but that’s up to God!!
  12. Saw my Oncologist this Saturday morning, yeah, I was surprised myself because not many doctors work on Saturday. Monday my Oncologist calls me and tells me that she needs to come to her office this Saturday, even though I’ve an appointment with her on May 13th for a follow-up. Of course, I start thinking about bad things. Has my cancer returned?!? Am I no longer in remission?!? What could it be?!? My PSA is at 0.06, which is GREAT!! No cancer still…I’m still in complete remission!! So what is it that caused my Oncologist to call me?!? On February 10th I had a PET Scan that my Oncologist ordered. I’ve a MRI scheduled for March 6th. My Oncologist says all of my labs are GREAT!! Then what is it?!? I’VE A HOLE IN MY HEAD!! PET Scan shows that I’ve a hole in my head over my left ear the size of a golf ball!! WOW!! I’ve a hole in my hole!! Aside from the many jokes about one having a hole in their head, this isn’t really that funny!! I seem to be falling apart!! My Oncologist has ordered an MRI and X-Ray for my head and brain. I’ll try to have that done at the same time that as my other MRI on March 6th. Hopefully the PET Scan machine on February 10th had a hiccup and I don’t have a hole in my head!! Lately, like this week, my head above and back my left ear has been very tender and I do get a sharp pain if I touch a certain part of my head as well as I also experience a very dull headache in this same area of my head!! My eyes seem to flutter and lose focus for a quick split second from time to time. I asked my Oncologist, Dr. Ann Wierman can people live a long life with a hole on their head?!? She said, “Yes!!” Am I alarmed?!? Am I scared?!? Yes, of course, I’m quite concerned!!
  13. Hopefully any new stadium HAS A ROOF on it because playing football in a blizzard north of I-40 can’t be fun at all. Oh, one last thing…seeing that the taxpayers help finance the stadium, shouldn’t the taxpayers get tickets at a much more affordable prices?!? Ticket prices to a Raiders home game in the nose bleed section are, well, STUPID…gouging at its worse.
  14. My Knights scored 5 goals in the 3rd quarter against the Kings for a 6-4 final!! GO KNIGHTS!!
  15. There’s everything about this that I love. Removing redundancy at all costs and by all means. The unfortunate difficulty lies with the overbearing Governing Bodies because they want it their way as though their way is the only way; that’s ridiculous, of course, and that’s why our founder left the Okinawa powers that be. Their way, the Okinawa powers that be, is their way and it never has been the way of our founder, and it’s not my way. I don’t have to tell anybody about the Heisenberg Principle that says the act of observing a phenomenon changes it.
