I'd like to think that vid is real, but it's fake. I think I heard its supposed to be from a new gatorade commercial. Simple fact is, it would be near to impossible to jump off the wall twice, spin around, find the ball, and catch it like she did. And the catchers glove hand changes, from his right before the pitch, to his left.

Well ladies and gents back from vacation. Thank you for the well wishes Jill. I did have a very good time. I hope the kids had as much fun as I did. I really felt like a good dad and husband during the trip, I hope they will remember it as fondly as I remember our childhood vacations. Only bad thing is the first morning got a flat on I-10 W in San Antonio, had to put the spare on with the Ford Expedition jack, man I really was wishing I had that 3.5 ton floor jack at home, but I kept calm and told the kids to time me. I think Ralphie's father said that in "Christmas Story" except noone had to get their mouth cleaned with soap. After some help from the good people at Discount Tire, and a new tire, we were back on the road again. Oh and some jerk off stole my credit card number charging stuff in Singapore, hotels, airline tickets, WTF. Well I just drank a few margaritas and everything was better. Gotta say rides were great at Six Flags Fiesta Texas, went on Tuesday no lines. Well thats the highlights. Ate mexican food at least once a day at some of the best places on earth and then added some italian, barbeque, and some good burgers. I think I gained all the weight I lost the last 2 months on my diet.

it does, except the flat tires. My dad and cousins were helping out my uncle one time a long time ago, and the trailer full of hay, got not 1, not 2, not even 3, but 4 flat tires...during the middle of the summer, in lik 110ish temps. I've seen a couple pics from that day, and needless to say, they werent very happy. Apparently that's also the day they learned of my uncles, how to say, extensive vocabulary...(esp 4 letter words, lol)

Glad you had a good time Gary. Sorry about the flat though. I've only had one once on a Bronco we used to have with a lot of lift and 38's sitting under it. As you can imagine.....no spare at all (no cell phones back then either)...not fun.

went to see that movie wanted tonight, I thought it was really good, pretty unrealistic at points, but funny at others

Going to Hershey Park Wednesday to ride this.........has a 97 deg negative drop.......I can't wait! My son went last week with some friends and said it was the best coaster he's been on (of course he's only 14). So it prompted us to have to take the day off of work and check it out.

That looks cool. Finally an original idea for a coaster.

That looks like fun! I need to go on a coaster soon. I haven't been on one since last July.
