Moving again

Most anyone who has gone through a move in their life has also come to hate moving. No one likes to take inventory of their objects and rate whether they are worth the trouble of saving. I am just the same. I can't stand it. Yet the object of my hatred is not truly moving, but objects. Why do I accumulate what can only be labeled as "stuff" Do I need a set of state of Texas coasters? Are they really necessary for my comfort and life? In any case, this time I will try to avoid gathering the junk that usually comes with living somewhere. For all their gathering I bet hunter gathers don't gather as much as I have.

Class of the NBA

With three NBA teams in Texas you would think that we could at least have two with class. This team has shown grace and elegance in a league stricken by criminals and thugs. When the players of the NBA don't get their way or play poorly only one team continually shows its ability to stand tall and accept bad calls and intense scrutiny. Led by a 7 foot man with the ability to create for himself and inspire a team, a super speedy point guard and an All-Star swingman who can score all on his own, this team is teaching the rest of the NBA how to deal with their differences.

Without further ado I give you the classiest team in the NBA...

The "Stone Buddha" who shows no emotion and never complains. He only says a few words.

Calmly and rationally explaining that falling on the ground with no one around him is a foul

Sometimes you don't get your way. You just have to learn to accept it like a man...

(Rather than a FrenchMAN)

Even the role players keep their cool...

Of course everyone knows that this excellent behavior is exemplified by their coach...

This is clearly why they feel that the Mavs deserve a slap on the wrist.

Of course, they can do that anytime they want.

	Happy Anniversary Maggie and Ryan!!!!!!! On another note, my mom and I watched a Chinese movie. I don't think that we in the US have enough imagination to tell real stories. A few do it, M. Night and whoever wrote "Big Fish", but in all not really...kinda sad.
