Let’s go… Slaho!

Made you look…

Yeah I wish I had written something substantial here myself but no… I didn’t. All I’ve got to show for the last 18 days that went blogless are the 73 spam comments I was sent claiming that my blogs are very helpful. Well at least somebody claims to have been to my site, because I sure as hell haven’t been here!!

I did run today. And I do have a propensity to write after running. And I am in training to run 39 miles in a 28 hour period which means I need to run a lot… so maybe I WILL be writing more in the coming weeks. Just don’t hold your breaths. And it’s a shame too because every day at some point I’m like, “Man, that would be something awesome to write about.” But by the time I actually get to a computer the thought is gone like an Albert Pujols walk off grand slam.

Well, here’s to writing a few lines!!!

So I said that I was going to be blogging every other day… HAHAHAHA!  Who was I kidding?  Now that I’m back teaching, AND coaching both my sons basketball teams, AND with the St. Timothy Carnival around the corner, PLUS running as I continue to train for my races, who’s got time to blog?  The average person would then chime in and say… “Dude, just blog for 10 minutes, man.”  To which I would respond, “You haven’t read my blogs, have you?  It takes me 10 minutes to write the intro to my daily dissertations!”  So, please forgive me if my blogs show up infrequently.  Today I don’t have much time (though it’s more than I’ve had in the last 2 weeks), so I will just give you a small poem inspired by the U.S. Open currently being played in Flushing Meadows.  Enjoy!

Ode to Tennis

Oh tennis how I love thee.

I do love you so

And not just because to you

Love means Ze-ro.

Your players are outstanding

They run from here to there

And the women play in clothes

That look like undwerwear.

Two players who are really good

Are Roger and Rafael

I like one more than the other

For reasons I will tell.

Rafael Nadal

I don’t like his style at all

I prefer Roger Federer

I think he’s so much betterer!
