GREEN BAY FALLS TO DALLAS, RENEGADES BACK IN ACTION TONIGHT



The Green Bay Packers fell behind early and we never able to catch up last night in Dallas falling to the Cowboys 37-27. The Packers lost QB Brett Favre to an elbow injury in the 2nd quarter and he never returned to the game and it is possibe that he might be out for a few weeks. Aaron Rodgers did a good job filling in for Favre but the Packer defense couldn't contain the Cowboys offense. The Packer are off until Dec 9 when they play the Raiders at home which is a good thing, the Packers are pretty banged up. The Richmond Renegades are back at home tonight when the Huntsville Havoc come to town for there first meeting of the season, the Gades are also at home Saturday night when the Twin City Cyclones make a visit to the RC. The Colonial Heights boys basketball team open up there season tonight against Goochland in the Trinity Tournament. I have posted a link below to the photos AL took at the Colonial Heights girls basketball game Wednesday night. I have to go to Hopewell this morning to get some x-rays taken on my foot and then I am going to try to work the rest of the day if my foot doesn't hurt to bad. Fellow blogger A.G. had a 5:50 flight to Jacksonville this morning to go see tomorrows ACC championship game, if the Hokies win it looks like they will have rematch with Georgia in Orange Bowl.

Destiny is not a matter of chance, it is a matter of choice; it is not a thing to be waited for, it is a thing to be achieved.

• Today is National Mousseless Day, a day to just let your hair do its own thing. I don't have to worry about that.

Health and Diet Tip
Reach for that glass of orange juice. Studies suggest the most commonly consumed nutrient, vitamin C, helps to reduce both the physical and psychological effects of stress. Vitamin C is found in fresh fruits (oranges, grapefruits, strawberries, cantaloupes) and vegetables (broccoli, tomatoes, parsley, and asparagus).

A decided advantage
Working every moment toward an objective is far more productive than waiting until the last moment to get started. Progressing steadily gives you a decided advantage over catching up frantically.

The farther in advance you begin to make a difference, the more you're able to leverage your time and effort. Over time, modest efforts can add together to bring big results. Start early, remain steady, and you can do amazing things. Take the opportunity of each day as it comes, and those opportunities seized will pile on top of one another into something grand.

Right now you are working steadily toward a future that you choose by virtue of the actions you take on the way there. Each moment is precious in its own sake, and even more valuable because it contains the seed of greater moments become. Enjoy each moment, nurture the seeds of possibility, and you'll reap a bountiful harvest.
