On a lighter note, our Cubs pony league team is looking good. We are 1.5 - 0. The .5 being a suspended game for darkness. We are ahead 14-2 in the 4th. Alec sprained his ankle on the first game of the season last Saturday. Stepped on the 1st baseman's foot as he beat out a throw. It seemed real bad at first. However, it ended up being only a sprain. He is recovering nicely. Hopefully will be back playing in a couple weeks. He's a great player: alert, fast, can catch and hit, plus throws a great fastball and change! He's a great kid. Makes a dad proud! :)
Anyone watching Heroes? It's back and still real good!
Earlier in this blog I talked about a book I was waiting a long time for. I got it - although via Amazon.com and for about the same low price! Next to Lord of the Rings, and on equal footing with the Dark Tower series, the Chronicles of Thomas Covenant is one of my favorite fiction reads. This book, Runes of the Earth, is the first one in 20 years. There were two trilogies back then. This begins the third, and final one - although it is supposed to be 4 books. The only problem is that the last one is scheduled to be finished in 2013! Ouch! That will be hard waiting for.
Speaking of books, Wild at Heart is recommended for any guy who can read. I'm not done yet (yeah, reading two at the same time!) but there is some great stuff in there. I'll review when I'm finished.
New Rush CD out May 1st. Can't wait! (Sorry Mary!).
Asta la pasta. Till the next time...
