As you gear up for March Madness, check out this great women's basketball time-line - from Helen
Wheelock of Women'sBasketballOnline.com. Looking at the time-line that runs through the '70's makes
me feel a whole lot better about losing to the West Chester State freshman team year after year

Wow - the sun is gorgeous, coming up over the eastern horizon this morning. (Horizon is one of
those words that I can't for the life of me seem to remember how to spell. Every time I come to the

Okay, of that group, which one(s) would you put your money on? Citi had a good day and the market

It feels like Alaska here in NH this morning - and so my thoughts turn naturally to Sarah

Have you been having trouble this week keeping track of what day it is? I'm not complaining
about the Thursday Holidays, mind you - but it's made for some serious disorientation. Nice
