Motivation ?

Regardless of where it's found...Motivation is a wonderful thing. RP

Happy Hour Hot Spot: Met up with the Prez of GSB Shoal Creek chapter for Happy Hour. Old stand-by LaBodega on SW Blvd is still a great place to find 1/2 price drinks and awesome small plate bites.

2008 Election Update: For all you Mike Huckabee fans... Chuck Norris is officially on the "Huck Truck" bandwagon.

Rednecks

Compliments of the Phoenix GSB Chapter. He's expected to be in rare form at the Sit-Down.
* If you whistle at women in church......You may be a Redneck
* If you've ever slow danced at the local Waffle House......You may be a Redneck

Be Prepared

The Bearcats have advanced to the D-II quarterfinals. They laid the smack-down on West Texas A&M 56-28. Our ol' GSB buddy Adam Dorrel "AD" has kept the offense clicking.

Next up is Chadron state who we faced in last years quarterfinal round. This time we're playing in their house. Semifinal match up would be against winner of Grand Valley and Central WA who knocked out UNO this past weekend. Go Bearcats !!

Too bad D-I can't figure out a playoff system. It's a lot less talkin and more walkin...

3 strikes and...you're out

Finally had a look at the big one I've been waiting for. Biggest rack I've seen not hanging on a wall. He got winded me about 60 yards out and was none to happy about the encounter. After a 5 minute stare-down that included a fair amount of hoof stompin and snorting from his end, he was gone. He'll be bigger next year.

Coco couldnt make the trip but I brought home a picture of big brother Toby.

Twins !!

Spoke with the Brookside Chapter yesterday morning and was informed #3 is on the way. Figured ol' boy had some ammo left but apparently... more than we thought.

He called again this morning and said not only is #3 on deck but.....#4 is coming along for the ride as well. Twinkies !! Congrats to the Copp's Love ya both. RP
