Hope is a good thing. Maybe the best of things.

Within these hallowed walls...blah, blah...YO! Don't sleep on Hope!!

Listed right below here is the list for the 2006 regionals teams for the midwest region, which of course was nabbed from the MCWSA website.


2006 Regionals
Wisconsin Madison
Kansas State
Marquette
Missouri State
Illinois
Wisconsin Lacrosse
Kansas
Southern Illinois
Iowa State
Michigan State
Purdue

I don' t give a damn what anyone says, Hope College is coming to play. Those of you who aren't on board better roll over and hit snooze real quick because these cats are coming STRONG!!

A informed source told me they are taking the route that other succesful collegiate teams are taking and bringing in some pros to help out. Thats a lie. Completely fabricated. Sammy Duvall is simply taking a couple grad level classes en route to his masters in criminal psychology.


CSI: Disney World

Umm, whatever, we can get into that later.

Here is the official prediction for the weekend of September 29 - October 1 at the University of Illinois.
1) Hope
2) No one
3) Everyone else.

"We sat and drank with the sun on our shoulders and felt like free men. Hell, we could have been tarring the roof of one of our own houses. We were the lords of all creation. As for Andy - he spent that break hunkered in the shade, a strange little smile on his face, watching us drink his beer."
Drinking beer in the sunshine. Does it get any better?

Enjoy the weekend everyone!!

HO and O'Brien is like Mr. Rogers


True dat...Double True

Seeing as we are always on the lookout for informative tid-bits to help the people out in waterski land, here is something that is interesting.

If you click on the picture above, it will show a much bigger picture where you can see where O'Brien and Ho are located. Just about 3 miles from each other.

This is quite interesting, on the bottom right is where HO is located and the top left is where O'Brien is.

The wonder of Google Earth is amazing.

I suppose it shouldnt come as much of a shock, with the Herb O'Brien = duh..O'Brien and the Herb O'Brien = HO, and I would hazard a guess that it wouldnt make much sense to start another company in a different town.

Its probaly really nice in Redmond, Wa. I am sure the public schools are great and the ability to attract and maintain skilled labor is an invaluable resource. Plus, I have heard from a little bird that honeycomb and carbon graphite and whatever else goes into skis is in abundance.

Just go out in the back yard and chop down a graphite tree and you are on your way. Matter of fact, they probaly clean that stuff of the windshield in the winter.

I picture some person driving to work in Redmond, Wa, driving down north 67th court with a cup of coffee in one hand while dodging waterski companys with the other.

"Again, God you cant do anything around here without a slalom skiier clogging up two lanes of freaking traffic. Damn you Siemers! Quit making those shortline runs during rush hour!"

Won't you be my neighbor!!

Wonderlake's Split Pre-Fab


One of the neatest pre-fabs that you are likely to see.

To quote the announcer man.
