    Thank you. I think. Heh. No... thank you.

    Last year I was a musketeer and I was a BIT more popular. Oh, well. There's always next year.

    Now that's just low . . . his log-on is ED O for goodness sake . . . as in EDDIE, EDWARD, etc.

    In any event, it's good to see someone that still goes all out on their Halloween customs! Nice work - regardless of the reaction of the womenfolk. You win some, you lose some.

    Hello darkness, my old friend
    I didn't take it as a negative. I don't think I really project either male or female, with my personality. So, it's probably easy to take me for either.

    A point about being out of shape.

    I used to run X-Country in HS. Junior year I won about 90% of my meets. If I did not train all summer, I could still beat the personal best times of everyone on the team except one guy.

    Ok so, in preseason of my senior year I broke my collar bone playing soccer in the rain (dumb). I was down for about 4 weeks. I think to my self, no problem, a few weeks of training and I'll be at 95%. By the state meet at season end I'll be 100%. Imagine my surprise when the first race back I come in like 35th place or something. Even by the state meet (after many races) I could still manage no better than 5th on my team.

    Point is, there is out of shape (summer off) and then there is OUT OF SHAPE (injury). There is no comparison. My out of shape was cardiovascualar, wind, and muscle-weakening. I doubt I put on more than a pound of weight.

    Oden's is that kind of OUT OF SHAPE plus added pounds, physical injury, and loss of basketball timing & coordination. Going down with injury is so much worse than just an equal time of not playing.

    So we can not form an accurate assesment of Oden based on how he's playing right now. It will take a good deal of time.

    I've never seen the show, but I love the songs from their live performance, which I've watched on YouTube.
