In case you hadn't seen the news yet our very own Chris Denorfia was a hero last night for team Italy.  I was very suprised to see this but happy.  Then again, there are quite a few major leaguers on the Italy roster.

I love track bike racing.  Where are the local tracks?  And check out this guy's PE logo tattoo.  That is coolness.

Knitters don't like springing ahead either.

112 Canadians have died in Afghanistan.  I don't mean this as a poltical post but I have members of my in laws, my Canadian family, who are in Afghanistan.  Every time that I hear a headline on the news about causalities I make sure that it is not somebody that I know.  I am generally against war and I heart goes out to family members and soldiers world wide.  I want everyone to come home safe. 

I am actually going to run in shorts today.  It is just above freezing.  Yay.  Seriously, I miss California, California winters, and running here.
