COLONIALS IN PLAYOFF ACTION, HURRICANES LOSE GAME 1

The Colonial Heights Colonials have three teams that will be in playoff action tonight in the 1st round of the Central District Tournament. The CH softball team will face Prince George tonight, the CH girls soccer team will also face Prince George, while the boys soccer team will face Thomas Dale. I am going to see the CH softball game tonight. The Thomas Dale baseball team will face Prince George tonight. The Pittsburgh Penguins won game 1 of there series with the Carolina Hurricanes last night 3-2, the Western Conference Finals resume tonight with the Red Wings leading the Blackhawks 1-0. Well I think I am going to head back down to the OBX this weekend for the Memorial Day Holiday, I hope all that rain Florida is having stays to the south of North Carolina. The ACC baseball tournament begins tomorrow but Virginia doesn't play until Thursday when it faces Clemson. I am feeling a little bit better this morning so my PAIN index has dropped some. MICKEY

Being a Couch Potato
A sedentary lifestyle can lead to muscle disuse syndrome. In other words, use it or lose it. Over time, muscles that are barely used lose their strength and endurance. Weak muscles are much less efficient, meaning it takes more work to do simple tasks, like taking a shower. You can avoid disuse syndrome by learning safe, effective exercises for your condition.
