For the last couple of years I have been unable to use my home wireless internet and it has driven me crazy. What was really crazy is that my wife had no problem using it and I was able to connect to every other wireless network I have ever been near. I finally called my cousin that is a super smart IT guy and we figured it out...sort of. I am now able to connect at home, but it times out on me. Baby steps, small victories, win the battle not the war whatever. I feel like I accomplished something today. Hurray for me and hurray for cold beer. My AC is still out at home and cold beer goes well with no AC.
I have a couple of takers to wakeboard/wakesurf with me on Thursday. See previous blog if you want to ride. Sorry, no newbies allowed.
Cheer for our buddy Rich Beem in the US Open this week. Rich is a great dude. He is playing behind the group of Tiger Woods and Phil Mickelson, so he may get on TV a little.
Tricia ran over a tarantula in the driveway tonight. You would think she slayed King Kong. Very funny.
I am bummed about the Governors Mansion. I hope they catch whoever did it and throw the book at them. Why would someone light anyones home on fire? Do they not have cable? They always get caught. This person will too. The world is full of strange people. Just take a minute and look around.
Cedric Benson sure screwed up huh? Two alcohol related arrests in less than a month. I don't care if you play for the Chicago Bears or flip burgers, that is just stupid. Another Longhorn player that just can't figure it out. Sad huh? Don't feel bad for him. He can afford the attorney fees, feel for the guy that can't afford a half a tank of gas. In the end, Cedric will be fine, the other guy still has to punch the clock. Speaking of punching the clock.......I need some sleep.

Hi Sandy,
love your blog entries, heard about Cedric and all I have to say is...these guys don't deserve to be treated any different or better than a regular criminal. As a matter fact, it really ticks me off that they still get to play after pulling stunts like that,in my opinion..one strike, you're out! It is a privilege to get to play professional football and they should at least try to set an example for all the kids that are longing to have that very same dream come true and be one of the chosen few to get to play professionally.
Now..to the governors mansion..yes, it's sad, but replaceable! On the other hand..the same night this happened..a little boy here in G-town who's just a little younger than my youngest son had his skull bashed in by his parents after CPS returned him 6 months ago..to me ..that's a hell of a lot more disturbing than a building burning down. And you know what? The parents got "injury to a child" ..not murder THAT should've been on the news 24 /7 not the governors mansion. I'm a mother and an ex prison guard and even though I was upset to hear that this historic building burned..it's a lot more concerning to me that nobody cared much about that little boy that will never get to grow up and didn't understand why mom and dad are hurting him.
K..I vented.. :)
Love ya'll
Katja
