The Green Bay Packers are now 2-0 after yesterdays 48-25 win over the Detroit Lions and believe it or not the Packers were lucky to win this game. The Packers actually trailed the Lions 25-24 with 5:18 left in the game before the Packers scored 24 unanswered to end the game. The Washington Redskins picked up there 1st win of the season yesterday beating the New Orleans Saints 29-24, the Skins dominated the Saints in th 1st half offensively but had to settle for three 3 field goals an actually trailed at the half 10-9 before pilling out a victory in the 2nd half. Greg Biffle ended his 33 race winless streak at the right time and won the 1st race in the chase yesterday at New Hampshire and with the win he is now 3rd in the point standings 30 points behind leaders Carl Edwards and Jimmie Johnson. Kyle Busch the points leader going into yesterdays race had all kinds of trouble yesterday and now is 8th in the standings. Here in Colonial Heights yesterday Sheetz was out of gas all day, I saw in the paper that there are gas stations all across the state that are out of gas and gas has gone up about .40 a gallon since Hurricane Ike hit Texas on Saturday morning. My PAIN index is way done this morning after a good nights sleep. MICKEY

SOMETHING TO PONDER
Do toilet seats really protect us from anything?
Uses for Old Jeans
When jeans are past their prime and not suitable for wearing, you can recycle the fabric to use in craft projects. Denim is durable and great for making quilt blocks, purses, patches or sleeves to hold tools.
Don't banish anything.
If you have a favorite food that is high in fat or calories, don't deprive yourself. Keep a modest amount of that food in your meal plan.
