§         Family's Note:  Updated 11/02/02

Well it's been over three months since our last update, time just flies by. It's hard to keep this more current, but I'll try. Work is going great, I was the top billing engineer a couple of months ago. Christy's working very hard to get her new business "All About Smiles" up and going. Click on the link to check it out. It's a site in progress so keep that in mind. Feel free to give us feedback on the site.

• I suppose we can forgive David and Christy for waiting for over three months to update.  Especially since they haven?t updated again for over TWO YEARS!!!  What the hell am I going to do if I don?t know where David is on the ?billing engineer? depth chart?  What of Christy?s business?  She makes a lovely clown ? even with the cold sores.  That site hasn?t been updated in a year and a half.  Don?t even get me started about the countless David and Christy duos that are nomadically wandering the internet in search of a new domain name because this particular David and Christy refuse to give it up or even update the domain that they?re hogging.  www.davidandchristy.net , while available, is just not going to cut it.

Madman Gone Missing

Great googly moogly, where does the time go?! It's been over three months since I posted anything new to this site, but I can assure you that I've had good reason!
By way of explanation, head on over to the ezine page to read on the latest works-in-progress and pretty preview pictures. I can almost promise you that there's something there for everyone!
Come on. Click me. You know you want to. I won't tell. http://www.frankfradella.com/

o       I think it can be said with a measurable amount of surety that any man, and most women, who greet me with the words, ?Great googly moogly? cannot promise that their site has ?something for me?.  Actually, the guy?s alright.  If you?ve got the time go read an essay or two.  If you encounter Frank Fradella on the streets of Boynton Beach, please tell him to hold off on the googly mooglies in the future.

 

§         As a number of you have pointed out, it's been over three months since I've updated "Life in Maine." http://userpages.acadia.net/closter/main133.html

o       I have every confidence that you will keep your eyes on Maine.  Please forgive me if I don?t bookmark your site as I don?t imagine anything will be happening in Maine anytime soon.  Ahhhh man, it?s been a while since I?ve gotten off a good ?Maine? zinger.

 

Unlike the other 357 assholes that are currently apologizing for not updating their respective sites, blogs or address for the sex offender registry, I have absolutely no excuse.  I always told myself that I would make this space a true weekly just as soon as I finished school.  School has been over for 3 months now and I haven?t done jack.  The only thing that makes me feel even a little bit better about my particular sloth is that no one else has contributed anything either.  For those of you that have hung on and are still checking for new material ? thanks and I sincerely apologize.  I am going to make it right.  Just for you, faithful reader, I am going to supply replacement columns for every writer on this site to cover the past three months.  Enjoy:

 

Granger?s Mixed Bag:

Something weird happened in the news or the world of politics.  Granger weighed in on the subject with fresh insights and infectious candor.  We all had a great laugh and were a little smarter for having seen it.

 

The Professor:

The Professor still has an advanced degree, a great job and an attractive wife.  He reminded all of us that he is smarter than we are by supplying flowery prose aplenty.  We admired his brilliance and shook our heads in self-disappointment with the knowledge that we will never be as great.  Either that or he wrote about leaves changing color or some crap.

 

Mitchell?s Multi-Monthly Meanderings:

Mitchell had a positive/negative/indifferent opinion about the video game/sports team/piece of media that you like.  He stated his reasons and backed them up with research.  Then he ripped off South Park.

 

Baseball Articles:  We realized that the networks, ESPN, Fox Sports Net, CNN-SI, Sporting News Magazine/Radio, Yahoo! Sports, MLB.com, TBS, WGN Television/Radio, F/X and the rest were doing a good enough job making sure that every speck of infield dirt at every ballpark in America had 24-hour coverage that we quit writing about it.  Unless something pissed us off.  Or the Cardinals made it into the World Series somehow.

 

Guest Column:  I spent three months trying to get my dad to write something, but he never got around to it.  All we can do is hope that ?Larisa? goes on another vacation soon.

 

All the Betting Pools:  You don?t care; it?s for the people that bet in the league.  If you do care for some reason ? as far as I know, everybody spent their time playing fantasy and let the betting pools lapse.

 

There you have it.  We are all caught up.  If you have any suggestions for a new ?And for No Apparent Reason? phrase, please drop me an e-mail.  You guys can also use that address to yell at me for my unauthorized updates of your columns.  I can?t wait to hear from you.  See you next week!

 

Love,
