Dickie V For The Hall!
Tuesday, February 20, 2007
Lost in all of the Gilbert Arenas, Tim Hardaway, All-Star Game and Florida Mascot nonsense I regretfully forgot to give congrats to Basketball Hall of Fame nominee Richard J. Vitale. He's pretty much a shoe-in, so I will honor him in the only way I know how. To mention 156 things that have nothing to do with Dickie V., Basketball, or the Hall of Fame.

In and Out Burger is the greatest fast food restaurant I have ever been to. Nice job getting that one in there.
By the way - very nicely done! I'm sure Dickie V will be proud.
I was always the Russians in bubble hockey. Always.
Dig Dug...now there are some memories right there.
If I never leave the state of California as an official residence, it will be because of In-N-Out.
I was just satirized for the first time...thank you for being so gentle.
Mike
You said "Spelunking" twice.
