We should have gotten him

I know I told myself I wasn't going to use this to talk about sports but Allen Iverson going to the Nuggets deserves some kind of comment. How many marquee players are going to be moved without the T-Wolves grabbing one of them? This is another reason why we shouldn't trade Garnett. Look at the 76'ers now. They have nothing. We aren't going to get what we think KG is worth in any trade in this league.

I drive out tomorrow at noon for the first part of my Block Leave. The trip is approximately 20 hours or at least it was back in 2001-2002. I am realizing that I'm short on storage space at my current storage location. That means calling on Mom and Dad to leave a few odds and ends with them.

On a sad note, my aunt died two nights ago. She was a major part of my younger years but due to some conflict in the family I hadn't seen her for years except for once this year. I'm not the emotional type so please save the condolences. If you know the family, send them to my Mom. I don't cry at funerals, sad movies, or in extreme pain. It's just something I don't do. I am not sold on whether or not it's a strength or a weakness. No matter what, it lessens the effect of events such as this. R.I.P. Aunt Joni.
