COLONIALS WIN




The Colonial Heights boys basketball team started the season out on the right foot last night defeating Atlee 64-53.  The two team traded baskets for most of the game but the Colonial pulled away midway through the 4th quarter en route to the win.  The next game for the Colonials is Friday night in the Trinity tournament.  The VCU Rams will be back in action tonight against the Broncos of Western Michigan, the Broncos are 2-5 so I am predicting a Rams and I am sure fellow blogger Lee will be in attendance.  I just found out yesterday that fellow blogger Keith is out of town this week doing a little work for the government in Maryland.  My PAIN index is about the same this morning because my back is a bit sore after sitting in the bleachers at the high school the last two nights.  MICKEY

The lifespan of a squirrel is about nine years.

Stay active during the holidays and those extra pounds won't creep up on you. A 30-minute brisk walk most days of the week can do wonders for maintaining your waistline. Get outside if the weather permits or hit the mall before it opens for a workout while window-shopping.

I think Mick just needs a pain pill to take every morning. And yes, I will be in attendance tonight at the basketball game. I was supposed to have class, but it was cancelled.

DID THE CANCEL CLASS BECAUSE THEY HAD A BASKETBALL GAME TONIGHT.
