UVA STUNS DUKE IN OT, KEITH'S STREAL STILL ALIVE

The Virginia Cavaliers tied the game late in regulation on a shot by Sean Singletary an won the game on shot by Singletary 1.0 seconds left to give the Cavs a 68-66 victory. With the win the Cavs are now 6-2 in the ACC and tied for 2nd place behind UNC, also the victory kept fellow bloggers Keith's winning streak alive in games in which he has attended. I don't know what the streak is at now maybe Keith will tell us. Well we got about an inch of snow yesterday and it is all gone now so have say school will be open today to the dismay of several bloggers. I have to say that's the kind of snow I like myself, snow one day gone the next. The CH girls basketball game last night was postponed by the bad weather and it appear to have been rescheduled for Monday night, the boys team will be at Hopewell tonight. If anybody needs something to do tonight the Richmond Renegades will be at home against the Fayetteville FireAntz, these two teams have had some pretty good games so far. Also Andrew's basketball team will be back in action Saturday morning at 8am, that seems a little early to me. Well TGIF, and almost forgot to mention today is groundhog day. MICKEY

If we were logical, the future would be bleak, indeed. But we are more than logical. We are human beings, and we have faith, and we have hope, and we can work.
