Week 6: The only Ohio team in either the AP Top 25 or the ESPN Coaches Poll is Toledo. [sigh] Of course after the Bucks’ pathetic Offensive display against UCLA last Saturday, we don’t deserve to be in the top 25.

Looks like the Buckeye’s recruiting class for 2002 is going to be amazing.

New York has begun to process Death Certificates. On NPR this morning, they said that Missing Persons certificates usually take 3 years to process, in this case, they will be done within a couple of months (or weeks or days, I don’t remember and can’t find the NPR article … but certainly more quickly than…

Seen soaped on the back of a pickup truck on my way to work today: NUKE ‘EM I much prefer Find Them, which I saw last week, and I don’t encourage the use of nuclear weapons. However, I was amused that this sentiment – apostrophe and all! – was written on a pickup truck’s tailgate.

A new link, The Dane’s friend The Olive has a new blog, and I’ve enjoyed reading it. I’ve also noticed The Dane’s penchant for the word “The.” I’m also adding Kris10k, if for no other reason than her UNC Tarheels beat the dreaded FSU Seminoles on Saturday.

Last night we had dinner at one of our favorite local restaraunts: Barley’s Smokehouse. Great food (they changed the menu, but still yummy!). Jason says great beer (lots of ales and a Cherry Porter that I almost like). I like their by-the-glass Chardonnay. They make a fantastic Bread Pudding (they were out of it last…

New link: LibertyUnites.org The President referenced it in his speech, and it takes a bit to load all the pictures, but if you want to help, this is the place to find out how.

My fellow citizens, for the last nine days, the entire world has seen for itself the state of union, and it is strong. I was pretty pleased with the President’s speech. Powerful, strong, and controlled. He made his points very clearly. OTOH, Hillary looked completely bored and as if she wished she could be elsewhere….
