Whoa, Canada!

I believe I have seen better games than the Eastern Conference Final between Toronto and Montreal. Five come to mind. Two in Dallas (Dallas 4-3 Chicago, Dallas 3-2 Chicago), one just outside of Nottingham (Nottingham Fores 1-0 Everton), one in east Glasgow (Celtic 5-4 Juventus) and one in Amsterdam (Holland 4-5 USA).

If there are more, I cannot remember. Regardless, the second leg of the...

Oh Texas, my Texas!

Freeze, Yankess!

What season is it up there? Fall? Autumn? Here in Texas, the season is Still Summer. After that is Christmas, and then Getting to Summer.

Put on your parkas and huddle in front of your fireplace. Or do your arctic like states ban fires because they cause pollution?

I think I will take a swim today, and the play a round of golf.

Go White Boy! Go Arab Girl! Dance class!

So, Aisha and I venture into the dance studio on tonight . Aisha had to buy a skirt, but I just need to wear a jacket.

Lots of people getting ready for the various balls, just as we are. After six lessons, we are told, we will be ready to dance at the ball. After that, it is just finishing, and, of course, staying sharp....

Trump, jobs, the misfortune of virtue, and a few dances.

When the campaign began, my team mate, Kristina, supported Governor Christie. When he left the race, and supported Trump, so did Kristina. Trump really did need experienced campaign hands, and, apparently, Kristina was high enough up to offer jobs in the campaign, not just to solicit volunteers. Which she did. Three times. The third was the best offer I have ever had, and, when I...

I'd have refused the offers too.  And still would.  I want nothing to do with the nectarine nightmare, who has zero business calling himself a Republican.
ericwine:
We can hope!  And the 'Skins seem to be on the right track, depending on whether Gruden is the right coach.  Snyder is finally letting adults run the front office and they seem to have a legitimate quarterback for the first time in ages.  The Dallas game will tell a lot.

Happy Hallowe'en!

For some of you, Hallowe'en has not yet ended. For others, it is not yet over.

Please, have a good night.

Sex dreams and reality, part two

Serena might have something going on with this no drinking idea. I had another sex dream.

Now I am certain that almost everyone dreams about sex. Probably every night, several times a night. When I am sober, however, I remember them. I would add I attach no importance to dreams. When we lived in an apartment in Mexico City, our cats could not go outside...

If I have sex dreams (which is pretty much every night), I basically set it all up and by that time...ZZZZZzzzzzZZZZZzzz. Only when I lucid dream or rest is there more of it.

FC DALLAS 2016 SUPPORTER'S SHIELD WINNERS!

Throw in the US Open Cup. And topping their group in the Champion's League. Pretty good season. Double! Two down, one to go.

strongbhoy:
Heard you guys had the biggest drop in attendance MLS wise. 12% down? Thoughts?
pascipio:
Lately, the games have been close to sell outs.  The Open Cup was SRO.  Once upon a time, a brave and wise General Manager submitted an advertising proposal.  The first page was the pretty picture.  On the next page were the proposals, and cost, with the total budget on the bottom of the page.  HSG looked at that number, and shelved it.  Instead, they rented a billboard right by the stadium.  All they do is advertise during the broadcast of games.  Concessions are overpriced and take a long time.  You cannot get anything at half time without missing some of the game, because the people manning the stands are volunteers from high school fundraising.  I know a lot of people who love the team, but the game day experience is never worth it.
