Montag

Song of the moment 'in state' by Kathleen Edwards

FC Dallas in spite of being without 5 starters, and it's two top goal scorers won in Salt Lake on Saturday night (3rd straight win on the road, 4th overall)

Dallas now has more points than any team in the MLS, and they've only played at home 3 times. Excitement is high as you might suspect.

20 of the Inferno went to Salt Lake for the US match, and the FCD game. I asked them to bring back 6 points and they did just that.

I continue to embrace summer, I even read the DMN and the NYT in the back yard yesterday. For the first time in my life I fertilized my lawn a few weeks ago, and the grass is coming through thick and green. I just hope it doesn't go to hell later.

My brakes are starting to squeak, after only 32K miles. I know nothing about brakes, do I need friction reline whatever that is, or pads and shoes or whatever? I'm at a loss.

I will be out of the office today for the most part. I have to travel with Henrik to visit a supplier I hate up in Sherman. I fear riding in a car with Henrik. I imagine him playing C & C music factory, or Roxette the whole time. H is a nice enough guy, he's just all business, and really uptight. I'm not saying I would prefer to make the trip with Flanders or anything.

I bumped all my weights ups by 10-20 pounds yesterday, so I better feel some serious pain in the next 24 hours. I've maxed out one machine, and yet I still am not getting results.

Got a bit of sunburn yesterday, but I still embrace summer.

Tail gate parties for FCD may get a bit sticky. I'm thinking a kiddie pool may be needed.

"you can't handle the truth!"

My great grandpa actually slipped on a banana peel and was crippled the rest of his life. I am not making this up.

Summer is pure hell.

The king of them all, and this may be an over-idealized movie quote more than an over-used one, is "You had me at hello."
