WestGate staff caught at Amato's with cheesy fries.

Marky Mark, Jonny-T, Stevie-babes, T, and the "new guy" eating Philly cheese steak sandwiches and cheesy fries. If you listen carefully you can hear their arteries hardening.

This sign reflects racism towards Asians and their body parts. Very sad

At least spell "knees" correctly.
 
It's Jap knees
 
I don't get how that could ever be a cuisine either.

This is the part of my job that I hate. Saying goodbye to players when they are traded. We will miss Pablo Campos

This is a pick of some of my boys from the EarthQuakes… Pablo Campos, Mike Graczyk, Arturo Alverez, and Shea Salinas.  The other pic is of me, Davide Somma (who was released earlier this year) Pablo, and Shea at a bowling tournament for FCA.   I met Pablo at Chipotle in San Jose just after he joined the team and invited him over for our Wednesday family game night.  He came and introduced us to some of the best games we’ve played in our home.  Granted… these are drinking games, but we played them all night (without the drinking) and had an awesome time.  Pablo is one of the warmest guys you will ever meet and loved being at the house and hanging out with my family. 

We will miss him,

I've done some research and have discovered some new parenting techniques.

When communicating with your children, use a high pitched whistle.  This whistle counters whining, screaming, talking back, and eye-rolling.   If we’ve learned anything from Captain Von Trapp, the whistle is our best option to get kids attention… short of smacking them upside the head (which is what I’m sure he wanted to do with his boys who wore the Lederhosen).  

Parenting Lesson #1

a spaceship hovered over our house this morning... and this creature fell out and landed on my lawn. It's still there.

It looks scary, and it snorted at me when I got close to it, so I ran away.  But I got this picture and am now convinced that aliens do exist and we are not alone in the stratosphere.
