MAN WAS IT HUMID YESTERDAY AFTERNOON

I decided to run outside yesterday afternoon about 4pm and it was as humid is it has been all year. It rained a little bit about 3pm and then the sun came out while a was running and it felt like a sona out there. I did have to cut my run down to about 3.5 miles because of the humidity. We did a pretty good rain here in CH last night and it is still pretty humid this morning, the high is suppose to be 87 today. The Cincinnati Reds fell to the Cards last night 5-0, the Reds need to win tonight or I think they could be in trouble the rest of the year. Keith must not have taken his computer to Rock Island this trip, haven't seen any comments from him. Mom took her first picture with her new camera lst night and sent it to me, as you can tell Andrew posed for this shot. Scott how has football practice been going for Scottie and Dusty, are they complaining of any injuries yet? MICKEY

Without winners, there wouldn't even be any civilization.
