Must Be A Head Case...

 

Not That This Ever Happens...

 

Goooooo, Blue!

 Michigan beat UConn to win the men's basketball championship.

     And it wasn't easy -- both teams made a lot of mistakes. UConn also seemed to think it was a rumble, in the style of West Side Story.

“If you would have told me we would shoot it this poorly and get dominated on the glass, but this team’s just found a way all season,” Michigan coach Dusty May told CBS after the game.

     But the Wolverines persevered, and won their first national title since 1989.  

          Well done, Michigan! 

                       69-63

 Christ is risen.

He is risen, indeed.

     It's a big difference to believe in -- and follow -- a Leader who is alive in every sense of the word.

    Last week was Zanyland -- lots of appointments and meetings. This week is better, but I'll spend a very long day in Denver appraising, and the Brick will be in Pueblo for a COS meeting a few days later. Tonight:  Michigan plays UConn for the men's basketball championship!

"Go Blue!"

Meanwhile:

A cannonball, quite possibly from the 1836 battle, found buried near the Alamo! And intact, too -- the first ever found in this condition.

The East Coast fort - whose remains are now in a parking lot.  

My buddy, the Japanese salaryman, takes us on a tour of cherry blossoms. If you're wishing for spring to really come, this is encouraging.

Freebies for seniors -- 15 of them.

Whatever happened to John Walker Lindh?  He was released from prison in 2025, by the way...

Tiffany Henyard -- remember the lavish expenses (and lippy responses) this Democratic Illinois mayor ran up before she got defeated? Now, she's trying a political comeback: as a Republican in Georgia. (I am not making this up.)

Have a good week. Hopefully you've got some trees blossoming, too.

Good Friday

 "...Jesus said, "It is finished." And He bowed his head and gave up His spirit."

For us. He did this for us.

Wish They'd Do That Here...

 

Update:  It actually RAINED yesterday! For a good long while, too. So grateful. 

La Veta Pass, and some of our friends higher up, got a little snow mixed in.
