HAPPY BIRTHDAY MARK




Well today is fellow blogger Mark's 54th birthday, HAPPY BIRTHDAY MARK. I don't know if there is any truth to a rumor that he might be taking off for his birthday, after all he works for the government. The VCU Rams picked another road victory last night beating the Georgia State Panthers 65-50, the Rams are now in a 3 way tie for 1st place in the CAA after Northeastern upset George Mason. Next up for the Rams is a home game Saturday with George Mason. Also in college basketball last night the Virginia Tech Hokies knocked off the #1 team in the country Wake Forest 78-71 at Wake. The Richmond Renegades will return to action tonight at Twin City, the Gades will return home tomorrow night and Saturday night to face the Huntsville Havoc. I went to baseball rules clinic meeting last night and this years theme is sportsmanship, they are stressing sportsmanship between the teams and the officials doing the games. I am always a good sport. HAPPY BIRTHDAY MARK. MICKEY

Dietary Fiber
Dietary fiber is a special type of carbohydrate. They are derived from plants. Fiber is neither digested nor absorbed by our digestive system so they help in weight loss. They easily absorb water and become bulk. That is why sometimes dietary fiber is also called bulk and this bulk is helpful in constipation.

My,my,my! What a nice looking man in uniform I was!

Contrary to rumor, I will not be taking the day off. After all, when you're a government worker, every day is your birthday.

I made Mark dinner last night - we had baked spaghetti, homemade onion bread and a salad with with lots of optional toppings. Lee - there is some of the baked spaghetti left over.

Picture looks like Stg. Preston of the Canadian Royal Mounted Police. I hope he rode his horse better than his car as Mickey observed him slamming his car into my curbing prior to going to the hockey game last Sat. night.Happy Birthday Mark.The first time I met Mark was in May of 1957 when I picked up Claire for our first date. He's come a long way.
