HAPPY VALENTINES DAY, VIRGINIA, VCU, & ANDREWS TEAM FALL


I just thought I would wish all you fellow bloggers a HAPPY VALENTINES DAY. The Virginia basketball team came up short for the 2nd time this year against Virginia Tech falling to the Hokies in Blacksburg 61-55, it was a close game throughout but the Hokies pulled it out in the end. The VCU Rams fell on the road last night at James Madison 76-71, the Rams appear to falling apart down the stretch. I do understand that fellow blogger Lee made the trip to Harrisonburg with a few other Rowdy Rams fans as well, I guess it was a long ride home. Andrews basketball team fell again yesterday as well, they are having a tough season they are now 0-3 and Coach Lamantia is still looking for his 1st WIN of the season. I have posted some photos below of yesterdays game. They will run the Daytona 500 this afternoon, after watching yesterdays two races it looks like there could be allot of crashes in this years 500, Tony Stewart won yesterdays Nationwide race. Well it looks like tomorrows weather system will now be rain which is good news to me, I don't think I can deal with anymore snow right now. MICKEY

Putrid Sponges
How it happens: Even when it appears "like new," the sponge you use for wiping the table and washing dishes can harbor 10,000 bacteria per square inch. The Journal of Environmental Health recently suggested microwaving the sponges to kill the bacteria, but hundreds of people have found that dry sponges catch fire when zapped.

The fix: "A great way to disinfect dish sponges is to boil them or throw them in the dishwasher once a week," says Joseph Laquatra, Ph.D., a professor of family policy at Cornell University.

It's rich in antioxidants
Roasted peanuts contain about 22 percent more antioxidants than the uncooked variety and about the same amount of cell-protecting substances as strawberries, according to researchers at the University of Florida.
