My only house heat is a wood-burning stove. It has heated well for 35 years now. Low maintenance, sweep the chimney once a year and clean out ashes every 4-6 weeks. Train shed has electrical heaters.Willie, I hope you have a wood burning stove or fireplace to make use of all that wood!
AND .. Let me add that Pete Rose should be in the baseball Hall of Fame too!
...Louis: First day of school - already? the kids here don't go back until 7 September. Concerning the other individual you referred to, pay him no mind. He has never met expectations, and doesn't have the media exposure he thrives on, so he pulled this stunt to attract attention...Less said about him, the better...Just another example of the media making much over nothing to create push button issues.
On a brighter note, the O's finally put 9 innings together and shut out the Yankees. Now, three must wins coming up with Toronto.

Two 1936 scenes, each two blocks from the house where I grew up. First one to the North, second to the West. By the time I was old enough to remember, 1952 or so. the tracks were paved over, and the Peter Witt cars replaced by GM buses. Everything else was pretty much the same, with some modern autos.
LOUIS, JOE --Well, doggies! My Spousal Unit (who always says that I am to critical and opinionated) said to me that she hoped that that un-named person that you mentioned, "I hope someone breaks his leg".
With all the "crap" that has come down in the past few years -- I don't have much respect for the NFL anymore. Might as well add the other professional sports to that as well.
AND .. Let me add that Pete Rose should be in the baseball Hall of Fame too! That's BS!
Sherrel - I will have to on this subject. We used to be big NFL fans. In fact we used to have season tickets for the Miami Dolphins when we lived in south Florida, but over the years with the way some of the players have exhibited less than admiral behavior, we no longer watch any of the games. Can't see supporting the league.
If this fool can't respect the country that afforded him the chance to play in the NFL and most likely make a salary way above the average working person, I have no use for him.
Yes, Pete Rose does belong in the Hall of Fame. I agree 100%.
