Not So Fast, My Friend!

College GameDay is on!!!

It's time!!! Well, it's almost time. This is their preview special, but college football is here!

I started writing this post a few minutes ago and was going on to tell you what I like to call the Greatest Sports Story Ever Written: The story of the Memphis/Columbus/Raleigh 13 and 14 year-old Jewish flag football machine. But my computer went off line and it was lost. Not so fast, my friend.

I'll be back with that story soon. You will get to hear it and you will love it.

I just saw my first Under Armour commercial of the new college football season!

WE MUST PROTECT THIS RIDE!

ZiggyBackRide: Beating Inertia; Rolling Again!

Good morning! I'm thrilled to see that the last post - my first in a good, long while - has sparked discussion. In response to the latest comments...

David, fine points all. No problem with your bringing your work onto the ZiggyBackRide. We all want this to be as accurate and informative as possible. Thank you for helping uphold the high standards of data presentation that our readers have rightly come to expect.

Zina, good question. I wasn't actually reading Parenting Magazine. The survey was reprinted as a daily cover story on AOL. I guess I can see how the mental picture of me sitting at home catching up on my stack of Parentings might have caused an eyebrow or two to raise.

I still have a number of items from the last several weeks to write more about, including the improbable and glorious bronze medal run of my 13-14 year old Jewish Flag Football team at the JCCA Maccabi Games in Phoenix last week. Look for that story later this weekend!

Have a great day!

Interesting, No?

The following is reprinted from a survey in Parenting Magazine....

How often moms say they want to have sex...
At least a few times a week: 85%
Once every few weeks: 8%
Once a month or less: 7%

... And how often they think they'd have it if their husbands called the shots:
At least a few times a week: 85%
Once every few weeks: 8%
Once a month or less: 7%

What do you have to say for yourselves, ladies? Time to listen to the fellas, is it?
