Don't Forget To Send A Postcard

With the absence of a Tech football game this weekend, it looks like just about everybody has decided to take an opportunity to travel. Some lucky people are going as far as San Francisco, but most are just going home to be with their families. Gina and I made the trip back to my hometown just two weeks ago, so now we're going to go the other direction, catch Shania Twain (Gina's favorite singer) in concert, and hang out with her family this weekend. I'm looking forward to getting away from it all. This fall is passing by quickly (maybe too quickly), but I can feel this particular week taking its toll. All the leaves are brown, and the sky is gray... Wait a minute, that's a great line to put in a song! Brilliant!

Those of you who are staying in Blacksburg this weekend should band together and have some kind of party throughout town. Or stay inside, stay warm, and watch the first couple of games of the World Series. (Go Marlins, I guess. Freakin' Yankees.)
