They stripped the University of Hawai’i of the only men’s national championship in the school’s history, the 2002 men’s volleyball championship. They wouldn’t have dared pull this on Ohio State, USC, UCLA, Duke, or Indiana, but they have to look tough on occasion, and tend to pick out schools like ours. This is clearly a case of the punishment not fitting the crime. The player lied to the school, and the NCAA punishes the entire program and all the other players? I sure hope UH appeals (the AD says they will), and sues if they have to.
Hey Dave, this guy sounds like a prime candidate for a weblog!
And he’s in your neighborhood. Ron Mazzoli, former lawmaker, 70, heads back to college to live in dorm, participate in Harvard program.
Heads up Burger King patrons! The Chicken Caesar Club is quite possibly the worst sandwich I’ve ever eaten.
Heads up Burger King patrons! The Chicken Caesar Club is quite possibly the worst sandwich I’ve ever eaten. The real sandwich I got in no way resembled the sumptuous looking sandwich on their poster – little green on the lettuce, limp sour dough and a chicken patty so small that I had to lift up the bread to find it – it was invisible from all outside angles. Oh yeah, the chicken patty may as well have been a tofu patty for all the taste it had. I was trying to find something healthier than my normal Whopper, but this…
The Unfunniest Joke
I kept waiting for the punchline, but none came. I guess I should give him credit for surviving in a sea of clearly superior comics, but when your secret to success is to wrap your mother’s Vietnamese accent around some pretty weak material it’s hard to give Dat Phan much credit. Well, I’ll give him this much – his jokes and timing did get stronger as the show went on (the kung fu urinal routine wasn’t bad but hardly original), but he clearly was wasn’t in the same league as some of his competitors. Ralphie May, that was one funny…
Meet The Duckleone Family
I have a tip for anyone trying to give up TV cold turkey – buy some ducks. Not that I’m giving up TV, but I can sit for hours and watch these characters. My wife started calling one of them “Sunny” because of a bit of orange on his/her bill. I changed that a bit and named the rest of them after characters from “The Godfather.” Meet Vito, Michael, Santino (“Sonny/Sunny”), Don Barzini, Luca Brasi, and Connie. We’re still not sure about all of their sexes, so we may have some name changes in the future. Fortunately there are plenty…
I’ve been trying to find some ducklings for our daughter to raise, with absolutely no luck.
I’ve been trying to find some ducklings for our daughter to raise, with absolutely no luck. Our state’s Department of Agriculture in its infinite wisdom has set up barriers that make it next to impossible for anyone to bring any kind of live poultry into the state. I’m concerned about our native birds as well, but I’ve been told that their measures go way beyond what is necessary to protect the state. It’s been an enlightening experience. I found an absolutely wonderful site while doing some duck research called The New Agrarian. The site design is excellent, graphics crisp and…

I watched the beginning of the Miami/Ohio State game yesterday. Unfortunately I missed what turned out to be a spectactular ending. I don’t know how any of the sportswriters and sportscasters could call it an upset. Two undefeated teams that had not yet met. Who the hell knows what is going to happen in a situation like that.
Web pornographer hacks al Qaeda websites. I’ll bet they’ll try to overload his websites by downloading all of the pics they can.

I guess we have to put up with two more years of Georgie Porgie blaming Clinton for his own ineptitude .
I guess we have to put up with two more years of Georgie Porgie blaming Clinton for his own ineptitude. I’m just hoping two years doesn’t stretch to six. Bush has been saying some nasty stuff about the boys he used to hang out with in the rich CEO’s club. The laugh will be on him when he’s hanging out with them again in a place where you don’t talk about hanging.
Chick Hearn Dead at 58 .
Chick Hearn Dead at 58. I can count the broadcasters I’ve enjoyed listening to over the years on one hand, and have enough fingers left to dunk a donut. Laker games just won’t be the same without him.
