Finally! Something important has come to mind....

I'm a big, big, Atlanta Braves fan. I got into the Braves back in the 80's (long before they put together their incredible string of 14 consecutive championships), and am still glued to the television most nights when they are playing.

I have to admit, its been a little tougher this year than in past years, because, on more nights than not, this year the Bravos have lost.

But.....not to worry. All of us true fans are convinced they will be in the thick of the playoff race again this year. All they have to do to turn this season around is win about 55 of their remaining 68 or so games - and for the hated Mets to lose a few.

I think the picture accompanying this post (see how I've learned blog-speak already?) pretty much sums up how I feel about the team and what it looks like in my house when the game is on. Oh, sure, I don't smoke in the house, and rarely drink anything canned (besides Diet Pepsi), but most nights you can find me in the old recliner in front of the big screen - cheering my team on.

You know, come to think of it, when I look at that picture, I realize that my hair is not that dark (its white, or at best light gray). I don't wear that kind of t-shirt, and my belly (I hope and pray) is not quite that big - but other than that, it looks like me.

Well, I really am disappointed. Now that I have typed all this, and read it back, I realize that its not nearly as important as I thought it might be. I think it was really just an easy way to practice my new-found blogging skills and to learn how to publish a picture. Now that I've mastered that, I may move on to music. I'll take any recommendations.

And......I'll keep thinking of something very, very important to write about. Later.....
