She knew very little about skyping and I was explaining as if I knew all about it. She humbled me rather quickly when she remarked how interesting it is that 6 months ago I didn't even know how to use an ATM. I think Al Gore would be very proud of me.

What a great way for me to pass the time and now that the phone is a seperate item I can spend untold hours exploring nmy new toy.I have even Skyked ( is that the right word ?) with Ty and Mimi and Ty was not happy with the old blackboard in the back ground so we had to improvise an SIU banner to hang there so that it would seem like I"m having a press conference. And, Kudo's to Julie who brought the machine over on Thursday and gave up most of her Saturday to install the internet. And, let us not forget Al Gore. How proud MOM would be of you guys.

The poster has come off the refrigerator (Finally!) and Drew is now rooting for the Braves -- That is the team he saw beat the Cards last summer -- until they trade Lee back to the Cubs after the playoffs.<br /><br />He even asked if he could go to Atlanta. What is a Cub fan to do? The same thing they have done for over 100 years . . . wait for another one.<br /><br />And how about Christmas coming early for the Cardinals?

This is changing, however, as progress creeps from each direction like a gathering Atlantic storm.<br /><br />In the very eye of this hurricane sits a bar called The Sombrero Beach Club. Its owner, an old ballplayer, and a beautiful new resident, a formerly disgraced DC attorney, investigate what is happening and who might be pulling the strings. The mystery takes them back over thirty years while drawing them closer in the process, but are they maybe working on opposite sides?<br /><br />Events spiral out of control as they race the clock to preserve the innocence of the Middle Keys. They discover things are never what they appear on the surface. But just who is playing who? And more importantly, why?Nilssonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05550603248176035895noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3082904538637872323.post-50397501149294545312010-03-09T08:39:00.000-08:002010-03-09T08:41:32.917-08:00Hilarious clip<object width="640" height="385"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/MyGJXLxtVEo&hl=en_US&fs=1&"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/MyGJXLxtVEo&hl=en_US&fs=1&" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="640" height="385"></embed></object>Nilssonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05550603248176035895noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3082904538637872323.post-63639046060197808472010-03-03T17:29:00.001-08:002010-03-03T17:37:12.685-08:00Photos from Saturday<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgN4PrRZM_a6JsIwRpv1Zwc2V8VjGRCFYXt40sjUmu6qu5CbdI23vrpmelaNemxni6ORcy6zKcHmzAJb6YTxop48SYJkfYqedzU6Yd0_X8lEoXJbksYUu4tmvQ5JNsL06xvR8rrFoBpHeTd/s1600-h/P1030099.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgN4PrRZM_a6JsIwRpv1Zwc2V8VjGRCFYXt40sjUmu6qu5CbdI23vrpmelaNemxni6ORcy6zKcHmzAJb6YTxop48SYJkfYqedzU6Yd0_X8lEoXJbksYUu4tmvQ5JNsL06xvR8rrFoBpHeTd/s320/P1030099.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5444585515089744626" border="0" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg-SztCl0tVCmrv3TkZeGKCNpZBcu4vNmOF3bDfbGINJ4SvrtF_jHi6STyNiYRLCGZGQmUx1r4icCZ8hgnIHPd13mymgC6B7mlzrz4NqkElTml0qI5LmqqAddhm_oouadoCvT78Rgi3bLkl/s1600-h/P1030096.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg-SztCl0tVCmrv3TkZeGKCNpZBcu4vNmOF3bDfbGINJ4SvrtF_jHi6STyNiYRLCGZGQmUx1r4icCZ8hgnIHPd13mymgC6B7mlzrz4NqkElTml0qI5LmqqAddhm_oouadoCvT78Rgi3bLkl/s320/P1030096.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5444585500548460994" border="0" /></a><br /><br />The bottom photo is from the competition and then we went downtown to visit everyone's favorite law student and covet his apartment.Nilssonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05550603248176035895noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3082904538637872323.post-34982829443469508592010-03-03T17:26:00.000-08:002010-03-03T17:29:05.449-08:00Another band clip - this one's jazzy!Here's Ian's middle school jazz ensemble competing at a jazz festival in the Chicago suburbs on Saturday.
