Why I haven't been around... let the pictures do the talking...
Here's a picture of the new Freshman President being forced to take a picture next to my senior portrait at the first dance of the year... eerie resemblance isn't it?

Here's the gang celebrating a 49ers victory over Detroit.

Woo hoo... I love playing volleyball. This was taken at the teachers vs. varsity volleyball game. The teachers played hard and didn't practice ever... and, of course, got our butts kicked... but I still have my wicked backspin serve.

September 13 -- my cousin Billy's & Joyce's wedding reception.
Here I am with brother, father, and grandfather.

September 20 -- Mike's & Michi's wedding
I again avoided the camera most of the night, but I'm caught here with Mae.

September 23 -- One of the craziest nights of softball ever...
When I have the energy I need to tell this story... but here's the short version...
6:30 playoff game start that ended at 8:30 in extra innings. We were down 5 runs in the 7th inning and made a magical comeback against a team full of our former students... good story...
We have to wait an hour and then play in the championship game. It was reminiscent of a classic heavyweight boxing match. Another big comeback. Dramatic home runs hit and stolen away on defense. 9 injuries between the two teams, including a hospital visit for the other team. Yet we lost in the bottom of the 7th as our 2 run lead we just gained in the top of the 7th was overcome by their hitters. It was a game no one wanted to lose. And yet, another 2nd place trophy for a softball team on which I pitched.

September 27 -- Jack's and Anne's wedding
I spent most of the day being photographed since I was one of the best men, but I was able to
sneak a moment and capture this endearing shot as the professional photographer was taking their pictures.

September 21
Another Giants season at an end and 138 is still there to support our team.
