A fine Sunday indeed for Tony Romo
Sep 11th

Tony Romo had been somewhat of an NFL opening-week quarterbacking exception, enjoying a great Sunday in Cleveland, except, of course, for that bloody chin thing.

I am so proud of Michael Phelps, all he’s accomplished, and how he has handled it all. I loved watching how overwhelmed he was when he saw over 10,000 watching from the Ravens stadium in Baltimore, Phelps home town. I wish the cameras could be on him when it sinks in to him that 70 Million TV’s were tuned to NBC to watch him race.

So I have five to seven more days of taking five to seven minutes to load ANY Microsoft Office application. I have five to seven days of staring at five to seven seconds of blank screen five to seven times per day.
