good talk

Halloween is one of our best customs, hope I get a lot of trick-or-treaters I give a good bar. Going down the road is San Diego is like winding your way through an obstacle course what with all the holes and ruts and it's been like this or worse for 15 years. The drug-addled people of San Diego and their don't give a hoot attitude, what are you laughing about. Friday night I saw Helix High play Valhalla at Helix in LaMesa a San Diego suburb. Valhalla did real good until they caved-in leading 7-6 at halftime having intercepted a pass and gone 50 yards for a touch and extra, blocking Helix's extra point attempt and then blocking Helix's short field goal attempt just before halftime. Helix won 33-7 and are now 8-0. Their nickname is "the Highlanders" and they play up this theme totally, I heard bagpipe music in the distance and knew it was a recording but no, maybe 25 members of their band were wearing tartans and kilts and some were playing bagpipes. Football-rich Helix, a few years ago Alex Smith from Helix, the principal's son was the 1st player taken in the NFL draft and the next year Reggie Bush was the 2nd player taken. Bill Wothalton is from Helix and San Diego County is historically basketball-poor, when John Wooden's assistant told him about Walton Wooden said that there couldn't possibly be a player as good as the one he was speaking of in San Diego. Bruce Walton played for UCLA and the Cowboys. Real treat to watch these kids. About all of Helix's good players are underclassmen. Oh, Dennis Hopper was Class of '54 and voted Most Likely to Succeed and possibly lived up to it. In Nevada Sharron (double r) Angle is competing for Harry Reid's Seat in the Senate, both amassed huge warchests with most of Angle's money coming from out of state Republicans. Nobody in Nevada cares a hoot about Sharron Angle, a dingbat, any vote for Angle is a vote against Reid as many are tired of him, both have fanged arteries and the blood's shooting all over---I think Angle. So far as this Gays in the Military thing I've been thinking back and I can recall 4 that I've known who were in the Army, 2 for 8 years (they don't mind being around a lot of men) and one of the others had his leg blown off in Vietnam by a "Bouncing Betty." Just because they do this in Europe isn't a good enough reason as Europe is in worse shape than this country, it might be awkward to be in the showers with somebody like that for sure none of these 4 acted Gay while they were in. Bill Walton's name was messed up by the computer current, I'm at the library.
