I will everyday wear my Spartan gear until they are out of the Eight or the Final Four. And trust me, dear readers, I have lots of lots of Spartan gear.
Expect pictures.
OH. And GO STATE! I heart Tom Izzo so much.

What I'm Reading
- Edward Ugel: Money For Nothing
Subtitled, One Man's Journey Through The Dark Side Of Lottery Millions. (****) - Susan Braudy: This Crazy Thing Called Love
The true story behind the Billy Woodward shooting, the case on which Dominick Dunne based his novel, The Two Mrs. Grenvilles. (*****) - Matt Birbeck: A Beautiful Child
True story about the mysterious life and death of a young woman who's real identity still remains unclear. Excellent read. (****) - Richard Yates: Revolutionary Road
A novel about the alienation arising from living in the "perfect" suburbs. Hailed as a great literary book. I thought it was okay, at best. (**) - Annie Proulx: Close Range, Wyoming Stories
A collection of lyrical short stories from Annie Proulx that contains Brokeback Mountain among other gems. (****) - John Grisham: The Innocent Man
I can only quote from the jacket blurb: "If you believe that in America you are innocent until proven guilty, this book will shock you. If you believe in the death penalty, this book will disturb you. If you believe the criminal justice system is fair, this book will infuriate you." A must read. (*****) - Nancy Caldwell Sorel: The Women Who Wrote The War
Fascinating look at women journalists at the front during WWII. (****) - Jack Olsen: Charmer
Riveting true crime by a master. (****) - Ann Rule: Too Late To Say Good Bye
Excellent telling of the Bart Corbin cases. (****) - Michael Crichton: Airframe
Ehhh. Better than the back of a cereal box, I guess. (**)
The guy next door always flies a Purdue flag on Purdue football game days. I told Mark we should get a Michigan State flag, but in reality it would probably be foolhardy and invite vandalism. If you remember back to the glory days of the 1979 NCAA Championship, MSU defeated Indiana State - which is here in town. They still harbor resentment, and I swear some here labor under the delusion that they won. All sorts of businesses have photos and murals, etc., paying homage to their beloved 1979 season. Sometimes, when I'm feeling bitchy, I like to say aloud "They do know they LOST, don't they? That WE won?" Why? Because I was 12 when it happened, and apparently, I still am.
