NOT A BAD BIRTHDAY, PACKERS WIN

Well I have to say that I didn't have to bad a birthday yesterday, I didn't do much though mostly just watch the race and some NFL football. I did go to Me Ma Ruth's for lunch and thats about it, I do want to thank everybody for all the birthday wishes though. I didn't sleep well last night though and it's cold this morning so my AIP has been elevated this morning. The Green Bay Packers picked up there 2nd win of the year in as many weeks beating the New York Giants 35-13, the Packers are even surprising me with there performance. Next week the Packers will face the San Diego Chargers, Go Packers. The Washington Redskins will be in action tonight when the travel to the City Of Brotherly Love to face the Eagles, I am predicting a Washington upset tonight. Clint Bowyer picked up his 1st ever Nextel Cup win yesterday at New Hampshire and it couldn't have come at a better time, Bowyer was the only driver in chase that didn't have a win. They did come by Saturday and work on the roof some, I think they are suppose to work on the new room some more today. MICKEY

If what you did yesterday seems big, you haven't done anything today.
