Hey everyone.....Happy Black Friday. How was everyone's Thanksgiving? I had a good time at my sister's house but I am suffering the after effects. No not indigestion. Here is a little known fact about ol' 92. I am allergic to dogs. I love them...but cannot be around them for very long before my eyes and nose starts running. If left unchecked ....I would be totally incapacitated within about an hour or so. Knowing that my sis has a very friendly Lab ...and that I would be there for several hours, I loaded up on Benedryl. I got through the day without much problem (luckily I am one of those people who don't get drowsy when taking Benedryl). Anyway...we left for home at about 5pm. When we got here, we watched the Grinch (animated version) and A Charlie Brown Christmas (a family tradition on Turkeyday) which brought us up to about 7:30 or so ...anyway between the Benedryl and the Turkey (and associated carb overload) I started to get droopy eyes. I finally gave up and went to bed.....and slept all the way thru til about 6:30 this morning. Anyway I am having a major "dog"  hangover this morning ....runny nose and sneezing. It will run it's course pretty soon, I hope....I have chores today....mostly putting up xmas lights. Anyway...I hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving.

On a related note: My son's 15th birthday fell on Thanksgiving this year....he is saving up for a Bass (in some sort of flying "V" configuration) and got a good start on it ($115 in cash from various relatives).

Joel is supposed to come back at tonight's game ....I am looking forward to giving him an awesome ovation when he takes the court the first time in nearly a year. Welcome back Przy!!
