The Contender
Don't mess with Brian Hearn on the track unless you want to look like a fool! That boy is FAST!!! He just took home his first (but definitely not his last) trophy this week. He'll be on the cover of Sports Illustrated before you know it. I'm glad I met him before he became famous! Mike

The Pursuit of Happyness
As far back as I can remember, I have always loved movies. But I especially love movies that are based on true stories (Miracle was one of my favorites, based on the 1980 U.S. Olympic hockey team). Currently, I don't get a chance to go to the movies as often as I would like, so I have to pick and choose my movies very carefully. One movie that is coming out late this year stars Will Smith (always great) titled The Pursuit of Happiness. Check it out at http://www.sonypictures.com/movies/thepursuitofhappyness/. It's worth checking out. Mike

Dale's Pale Ale
As you probably already know, I am somewhat of a beer snob. I prefer an ice cold draft amber or ale, will tolerate bottled beers, as long as they are imported, but will not drink out of an aluminum can. Until now... A friend of mine recommended this extremely hoppy beer called Dale's Pale Ale. It is a microbrew out of Lyons, Colorado, and has completely destroyed my misconception of all canned beer. It's still a pretty small operation, only selling in 13 states (Alabama isn't one of them, sorry Jerry). You can check out their website at www.oskarblues.com. Hoppy drinking! Mike
