KFalls Upfate

Okay, Tom...here's the deal. There's nothing happening worth writing about. Doug's been pretty much sitting the bench ever since Henley's JV coach got put in jail. The assistant JV coach (Dave Myers) is a genuine All-American douche bag, who doesn't know diddly about basketball. Kids get to swing up to varsity when they post high stats, so JV basketball at Henley bears an amazing resemblance to the NBA...the guards shoot most of the time, and don't really try to get the ball to anyone but the post (Doug is usually playing up around the free throw line). Because the Dearing twins (Eek and Meek) like to throw up 3 pointers, the rest of the kids feel that every time they touch the ball they need to shoot...so there's minimal passing. Doug, unfortunately, is stuck in 60's basketball, and on the rare occasions when he does touch the ball he passes it to open team mates. He did send us a text tonight to let us know that he scored 10 or 12 points...but it was against IV's JV, and I'm sure Henley blew them off the court.

As for the rest of us, Steph's next meet is against OSU on February 7th (in Boise). Your mom and I were going to make a surprise visit to watch her, but there's some kind of lame-ass bird watching convention going on there and the Shilos are booked (we can't afford to get a motel that we actually have to pay for) so that little trip is out. Donald's tally-whacker fell off when he contracted his little bout of fungus-mungus, so Kayleigh's not pregnant (that we know of). Personally, I think she has quite a bit more class than that anyway...I think she'd kick the crap out of Donald if he tried anything.

I'm not sure about Dan and Laurie...I think that they have really limited access to the internet, so Laurie doesn't get to write very often, and doesn't have much time to write when she does have access. I know that she hasn't done anything on her blog for about a week...the only things I've seen from her are the remarks on your blog and a few on mine.

Jeff and Breein? I think Breein took your daughter up to Seattle, and left Jeff at home wondering if he's shooting blanks. He called here earlier tonight looking for Donal...I think they're conspiring against you.

I have to go pick up Doug...so this post is done.
