OK way too much has happened to let the blog go unwritten. Just like a great desert, I will hold off on the best news for last. To begin with, it is the end of the fall semester. This last Friday was the conclusion of finals week so we are all enjoying a nice break, and a well-deserved break I might add. Everybody did well in their classes, and now the Dealer is down to her final semester before receiving her Health Science degree as a Mighty Warrior at Corban College. Oh and Chuck, the ever popular Nitro Stats work was once again requested! I hope that is passed down for generations to come. Also relating to academics, it appears as though "Baby Face" (Winsor) will be eligible for the upcoming baseball season. It's been a long time coming, and I'll be honest when I say that I am surprised he made it. But very happy. I can't write a blog without mentioning the latest orange sale fundraiser. Coach decided to go ahead and pre-order boxes assuming every player will sell 25 boxes. So long story short, Kev, Schmidt, and I have 30+ boxes of citrus to sell. We got 5 sold the first night, 11 the next, and a couple today. So if you want a box of citrus, 20 lbs for $20, just give Nitro a call. An important upgrade was made to the house that I need to bring up. Well it's not really an upgrade, but a rejuvination of an already existent form of cheap heat. That's right, a fireplace. We purchased a chimney sweeping brush and cleaned out the chimney so we can burn fires and try to keep the place above freezing. Yes I am talking about keeping the inside of the house above freezing. We are well on our way. OK OK the biggest news of the year. As mentioned earlier about a lady hanging out with Kev, there have been some dramatic advancements made by this lady in the recent week. Just when I thought Kev was not all that interested, this lady stays over and watches movies with him until 5 am. The next night it's movies until....well I don't really know because nobody was up to document the actual time she left. This friendship is well on its way to be something special. And Chuck, an apple tree was a good guess, but I think it is incorrect. Think green. That's all I can hint your way. Until I have Kev's permission, this lady will remain anonymous. All the important information aside, the forecast is calling for snow tonight and into tomorrow with lows next week dipping down into the teens. I hope everyone stays warm and enjoys the break as well as the upcoming holiday season. Take care and be safe. Signing off.

Welcome back to my world. This entry is for breaking news in the house. There is some scheming going on and it is not me this time around. The scheming is being done by none other than Kev. Shocking news because of his hermit status since coming to Corban. For those who thought last year was bad, he has spent twice as much time back in his own bedroom this year. It is understandable though with the situation with our new roommate. He is not the type who you want to sit in the living room with and watch TV. Just a different guy. But all that extra time on his own has led to some developing news. It appears that those hours spent in there have led to some scheming. Some scheming on the part of a lady too. That's right. Tonight I was sitting in my bedroom watching some tv and heard a ladies voice coming from the living room. Knowing that Boomer had just got home, I figured he must have brought his attempted lady friend back home with him. But then Boomer walked down the hallway and yelled into Kev's room that a particular lady was here for him. The name rang a bell and shocked those in attendance of my tv session. Whether it is to be considered a date or not, dinner at the pita pit is not something that the average Joe is invited to. Though he did not drive, it is still a shocking development in the house. I will attempt to keep all my reader's up to date of this breaking news as it is still developing. Otherwise there is nothing more to update with. Another election has come and gone, and we will see how this presidency goes. Obviously there are some ups and downs to all candidates, but in the end, a president is not out there to ruin a country. Yes some policies are a bit off base, but in the end he only has so much power. We can just keep doing what we do and see how things shake up. As we approach the end of the work week, I wish everyone a happy weekend. Get out and enjoy the colors of fall. They only last so long. 'Til next time, be safe and be smart. It's not all about yourself. Signing off.

It is about that time. I have received some requests for a new post, and have received some hints as to it having been a while on here. So to the request of my readers, here goes nothing. We are a couple of months into classes now, and things are starting to shape up around the house. Although quieter than last year, there is so much news. First and foremost, there is a change to IM. No he is not evicted, but there is a name change. IM will now be referred to as Bum. Bum is just that too. You can't offer up free food (or anything for that matter) without expecting there to be anything left. Spaghetti...forget about it. And boy can he pack the food in. Oh well though. I mean we can't expect everyone who lives in that room to cook like Chuck. Also, we all learned that it is not Mr. Ron who is the homeowner, but rather Kev. Bum is going a month strong without light in his room while he waits for Kev to buy him a new light bulb. Oh, I almost forgot. Bum's is over a month now without replacing the toilet paper in his bathroom. Yes, we are raising those types of questions too. Must be using the napkins from Carl's Jr. OK enough about Bum. As for the team, still a work in progress with some bright spots. Hopefully the kinks will be worked out by spring. Coming up in a few days is the annual alumni game, and there are all hopes of Chuck, Pasta, and Beard making a reunion trip. Other than that, things are quiet. Classes are going smoothly for everyone. Simply looking forward to the Thanksgiving holiday and break from school. And if you get bored of my writing style, head over to triplecrownplayas.blogspot.com to see what the ladies have to offer. 'Til next time, be safe. Signing off.
