VIRGINIA, VCU & COLONIALS ALL FALL




The Virginia Cavaliers had another tough night in ACC action last night falling to the Boston College Eagles 80-70, the Cavaliers trailed by 20 at the half after another slow start. It doesn't get any easier for the Cavs this weekend when the Cavs face UNC. The VCU Rams blew a golden opportunity last night when Northeastern lost to William& Mary 68-63, the Rams then turned around and lost to UNC Wilmington 81-72. Instead of being tied for 1st place in the CAA the Rams are now tied for 2nd place with George Mason. The CH Colonials boys basketball team fell to Thomas Dale 76-42, it was a tough week for both girls & boys against Thomas Dale. The CH girls team will be back at home tonight against Meadowbrook. My PAIN index is on the rise after sitting in the bleachers at CHHS the last two nights and opening the cat food all week my finger is also starting to bother me a bit as well. MICKEY

A reliable gov't source has informed me that Keith is moving from the second floor tank repair division to the first floor combat division.(I assume that Keith will now be teaching tank driver education and tank markmanship in his new position) Keith ,Can you confirm this for fellow bloggers? That is if today is not aa gov't holiday.

Jelly Beans actually take 7 to 21 days to producee.Once prrocessed , 100,000 lbs of jelly beans can be produced a day or 347 beans per second.You can go to the original gourmet jelly bean company site and take the 5 minutes virual tour to verify .Al ,this should answer your question above. again, mickey's place is truly your place of knowledge.
