Wednesday, Feb. 25, 2004 - 5:45 p.m. Didn�t post yesterday. I had to spend what free time I had transferring tiny Cole crop seedlings into the 3- and 6-packs that they will reside in until they enter the warm soil in April. Two (almost completely) full flats worth. Way too many, as usual. Maybe even more so this time around. This task (and watching Michigan blow a 12-point lead against Michigan State, the one team ahead of the Illini in the Big Ten race) took me almost 2 hours. So, no time for an entry. Tonight? Not much better. I stopped by the local muffler shop on my way home from work. They installed a new tail pipe, and slapped some flux on a couple of cracks in the catalytic converter and muffler. The welds will only hold up for a few months, but since they didn�t have time today to do EVERYTHING ($245.00 � can�t wait to spend that amount on the Hillbilly truck!), I drove away with a much quieter truck for $39. I just finished throwing tomorrow�s lunches together, and we are headed out the door to grab a quick supper. The Illini play in about 15 minutes. Not enough time in the day��. Addendum (big word for me, eh?) The Illini kicked Iowa up and down the court all evening, and ended up winning by 18. That makes 7 wins in a row, and leaves them just � game out of first place. Nothing makes me happier (Illini basketball-wise) then beating this schools team. They are on my permanent shitlist for the sleaze ball coach that they employed in the late 80�s-early 90�s, a two-faced creep named Dr. Tom Davis. It would take too ling to explain the whole situation here, but suffice to say his assistant coaches and he did some very underhand and unethical things to get a Illinois recruit to say he got gifts from the Illinois coach at the time. This included calling the high school student on an almost daily basis before he signed with the Illini, putting words into his mouth , and taping phone conversations without the kid�s knowledge. All so that they could get an inroad in recruiting Chicago-area players. I remember hearing the tape of one of the incriminating phone calls, and you could tell that the student was sick of answering the Iowa assistant coach�s questions, and had come to the point where he was saying things like �sure�, �yeah, if you say so�, just to get off of the phone. Slimy stuff. Makes me sooooooooooo happy every time they beat this team. In any sport. Including fencing�� I added the license plate at the top of my page after finding the web page where you can make a plate with anything you can fit in the space, free. Click here, if you want to make one for yourself� It uses California�s plate as a template, but you can switch to any other state (or providence, if�n you are in Canada) on the second page. Good clean fun��..
