4 or less is not is still a mess! Hey I get a 1 seed for the rhyme!

Hey Brent you're a poet and didn't know it! LOL that rhymes.

Throwing out da rhyme 100GFB....like DWade dishing the dime....OK...my rapping days are numbered

That's what I really admire & respect about MCF, Gramz, & all my Forum friends. They are so accepting of culture, diversity, & all the elements which unite us not divide us as a global people & nation overall. Kim sounds like a remarkable individual that no one wants to lose touch with. I hope she can indeed attend college in MI too. That would be so awesome!!!

FYI, Jax has been back the past 3 summers to visit, and "work" at a Summer Camp. She is here right now working at Camp.

that is great Gramz!.. I know another family who globe trots in the summer visiting their exchange kids.. next young lady coming to stay is from Brazil and is a soccer player! excited, but it still is so hard to say goodbye to Kim, sniff!!

Sounds like a relaxed Father's Day to me.

that shelf cloud was amazing and a little creepy, lots of high wind gusts and lightning strikes...kinda cool though.. the lake was fierce and the rip tide has already claimed a life here locally, so sad..the Big Lake demands respect.

I had to go back and look at that again....great picture!!

Let your Union Jack unfurl & fly with pride!!!

I don't know how I missed this earlier...

Congrats to the girls...!!!!

when I see it I will try to do that, you know how techy I am, LOL... not a state win, just a club win "division" for Grand Valley Soccer Association.

If you run into to any technical glitches MCF, just send me an email & I will walk you through it okay. Worst case scenario, mail me the newspaper article or tell me the name of the paper & I will find it, copy it, scan it, & post it for you.

That's what I love about you MCF. You can roll with any situation, except the most tragic of course, & make it easy going, relaxing, & funny. You always make me laugh. It must just come naturally to you. Whatever it is, keep dishing it out because I buyin' it hook, line, & sinker baby!!! Just watch it stepping off the boat MCF. I don't want you getting sea sick on land again. Just Kidding!!! I always tease the people I admire the most like cr...

It cut me off...I always tease the people I admire the most like crazy. It's a sign of mutual respect to me. If I don't joke around at all, then you know something is seriously wrong. All my forum friends rock, but I'd be lying if I didn't admit to having a small select group of favorites. You know who you are!!!

thanks SW1.. guess what I am still sea sick on land?! it's getting better and I expect the vertigo to be gone soon, at least I hope!

A 3.92 GPA? Wow!!! I am very impressed brains & humility a rare combination to find in an individual. I hope that she & her family can return to MI very soon. I also like to establish a comfort zone with people from other countries & learn about the biggest misconceptions each country has about each other & how to build bridges of mutual respect & understanding.

Wow 3.92 GPA! Good girl, hope she continues her education.

she is smarter than I.... in 2 languages!!!!!

A 14 lb and a 10 lb salmon catch sounds pretty impressive to me MCF. Is there anything you can't do? Very Cool Indeed!!! Nothing "fishy" there. At least you didn't claim to reel in Moby Dick when all it was a tiny minnow like most guys do. News flash: Men have a tendency to exaggerate their accomplishments. Shocking I know. HA! HA! Not all, but a lot of them do anyway. Motion sickness is never fun is it?

I'll admit I had help, my wrist was too wimpy and I almost lost the pole, I had to have help holding the pole, but I did the reeling! much harder than it sounds to reel in a 14lber, it really is unexpectedly hard! still feeling the waves, 2 days later.. vertigo.. have it for weeks after I cruise too.. it's wierd, never get sick on board, just for days after on land

Congrats, MCF! That's great news.

Hang in there, coltsfanCHINA. Sometimes, dreams do come true.

yes CFC...hang in there, you may get your wish when you least expect it... this will be my first live action Colts game since 1994, so you never know!

God bless all fallen heroes who made the ultimate sacrifice. Thank you.

Amen.

where there is $.......there be fighting about it

The new CBA may have brought 10 years of NFL labor peace as well as a player lawsuits galore. There is plenty of money to go around for everybody as Maureen suggests...Can't we all just get along already? Shaking My Head in disgust & disbelief.

it's nuts, it sure doesn't seem like either side respects the other.. kinda sad, hope it doesn't ruin the sport

What? Did your coworkers think it was a trendy new fashion statement or lotion moisturizer or something? Would they let you leave the bathroom with toilet paper stuck to your foot too? How embarrassing MCF OUCH!!!...I feel your pain my friend. Rest assured, I would never let you go out in public looking less that stellar my friend.

that's what happens when you work with pranksters.... they may just not like their coffee tomorrow, mmmmwwwwhhhhhaaahahahhhaaa

That's why I admire you MCF. You don't get mad. You get even....Insert Vincent Price diabolical cackle here...HA! HA!

Here's hoping you have a wonderful and "winning" weekend.

What section of Chicago, MI? I was looking at the weather. Looks good Friday and Saturday...and most of Sunday.

Good luck to your girls MCF AKA "The Soccer Assassins." Now, go kick some major butt!!! All Kidding aside, I hope you & your family have a nice visit to the "Windy City."

It is still all about LeBron.....Oh well. I am glad you got to see some of the game!!!

Life is good & great things always occur in 3's like Gramz's return, MCF return, & soon to be Kayla's return...I always need wisdom from the female perspective. Especially 3 women so funny, bright, & sharp. Welcome back ladies!!!

thanks for the smile SW1... missed my Colts Fan Friends.. my CFF's lol!

Thank you.. learning more every chance we get to research.. looking for best neurosurgeon out there.. it's been a whirlwhind that last 6 months..life comes at you fast!

The best in the Midwest passed away after helping save my dad. Indiana University Med Center has some of the best. Remember all of the cases sent from Indianapolis Motor Speedway from head injuries/etc. I recommend the former Methodist Hospital for Neurology.

thanks Brent, will check that out, looking at the Chiari Institute in NY, so far seem to be the leading experts for this disease, but is pretty far..

I remember watching "Little Bear" with my oldest nephew Josh when he was small. It was a good show & the artwork was clever & creative too.

he illustrated Little Bear.. among many other books, shows, etc, did some work for Sesame Street too

SW: I wish I remembered.....way too long ago. I forgot about Little Bear.

An undefeated soccer season at 9-0 wow MCF!!! My only question: Who got carried off the field by the squad on the team's shoulders? The head coach or the game winning goalie stop player? HA! HA! Please tell the players splashed the head coach with a nice dose of H20 or Gatorade please...

Congrats to Your daughter MCF!

9-0 was the score from Saturdays game.. already soaking wet due to rain, so no gatorade dumping.. maybe if we finish season number one coach will get a gatorade soaking, 3 more games and a tournament to go...

I need one of those.....gotta get toned up for the new unis. HA HA!

A disappointed teen can be a painful ordeal to contend with MCF. Hang in there. I feel your pain & frustration MCF. Your daughter is still a great person simply having a bad day. Kudos to you mom for maintaining the peace & good will inside the household MCF.

LOL, think you are right shecolt, I was watching the game and thought that was what he was doing, then it came out in new shortly after

Ok...we have water boy #1 and now water boy #2? Ick!

are they drinking on those sidelines? good grief! I thought heard the dumper guys name as Izzo? they were laughing and I wasn't paying full attention to get the name right. I remember the peeing story now that you bring it up, but never would of remembered the name, wow @shecolt, good memory!

Mother nature the world's 2nd alarm clock...The 1st alarm clock is a tie between pets i.e. cats & dogs & crying babies.

sadly, I have no pets... thankfully I have no crying babies, my kids sleep in now! They had no school today, so I guess I thought I didn't have to get up either

Mine is daylight and a German Shepherd named Que!!

Spring has finally arrived in Cheedar Head Country!!! Yeah Baby!!!

what is temp SW? only 62 here right now!! which is okay, but that's not what the weather report said!!!!!!!

It's only 63 degrees right now, but we keep inching closer to the projected high of 70 degrees. I doubt we will reach that plateau, but then again I am an eternal optimist after all.

SW, not quite, but they felt like it on Sunday! finally they are getting the passing and seeing the field and thinking 1 or 2 plays ahead! It's exciting to watch their growth as players. they had possession of the ball in both games at least 85% of the time.

Congrats to your daughter's team. My children played soccer from the age of four through high school. Enjoy this time. My days of being a soccer mom ended all too quickly.

I know what you mean @shecolt! my oldest is starting high school next school year! I can hardly stand it! It does go way to quickly and I sure am enjoying it, I never miss a game.

@Maureen, I'm sorry you have stomach troubles from all this. NOT your fault, but being a Moderator I'm sure you hear most of the complaints.

Maureen, you & your IT & moderator staff are amazing keep up the excellent work!!! MCF, you are very funny!!! Thanks for the gut busting laugh!!!

all seems quiet now. If we stay ok.......... fingers crossed. There are still techies under the hood

MIColtsFan: I trained my puppy; his name is/was Seven. He reminds me of Major. He helped the rescues and if I was suffering with bad knees he waited and helped me up the steps to the house. He is still with my ex because Que (My profile pic) was the Alpha male.

oh that is so cool, they are such amazing animals! .. hopefully you get visitation of Seven.. Que is adorable, can see in those eyes a super smart doggie

I am supposed to get Seven when Que passes. I may just go get another rescue....I really do want Seven though. Que is amazing...just a great friend.

SW, I bet you'd enjoy hockey! @Brent, I can't believe the Star isn't talking about the Ice, with them doing so well and all... the Lumberjacks were terrible this year, bummer for local hockey fans. One of my fav Redwings, Justin Abdelkader started in the USHL then moved up to AHL then NHL.. good stuff in the junior and minor leagues.. if only I had more time to devote as a fan.

cut off.. SW is dangerous, but I think Brendan Shanahan, the VP for Player Safety does a fantastic job. I think his being a former player makes a big difference and the NFL would do well to model this. I like how Shany plays video's with his reports when he hands out the penalities..it's all very clear what is accepted and what is not..unfortunately some play like thugs and make deliberate and unneccesary hits that cause injury..see Raffi Torres's latest on Marion Hossa, it's...

Exactly MIColtsFan.....NHL is working on these hits....most fights are "sissy" fights IMO....unless the 2 Enforcers go at it!!! That is MMA!
