Hello again.

Hello again everyone. I just got an iPhone about 2 weeks ago and I thought it would be a great way for me to get back into adding to my blog. It has really changed the way that I do everything, it is so easy to use and incredibly functional. I rarely even use my laptop anymore to surf the web. Using the iPhone to do that and keep up with all my mail accounts is so easy. Not to mention my employer uses exchange for their mail system now so my work mail is also accessible.

Now on to tonight's news. My Panthers need to get their act together and sign Jordan Gross by tomorrow night so that they can franchise Peppers and then trade him away for some nice picks. My Terps are a disgrace, I don't know how much they got beat by 2nite but it was a bunch. I even flipped over to the Bobcats since their game was much better to watch. They are actually starting to become very interesting, Larry Brown has them playing very well. They lost a heartbreaker tonight at Orlando in OT.

Hopefully I will be updating more happenings in Mint Hill in the near future.

My Golf Stats

I have decided to start to track some key statistics within my golf game. I think I found a pretty good free place to do so on the web, check out the link below.

Fall Festival..

Well the Fall Festival at the church was a huge success. Thanks to all who attended and for those that helped put on the Festival. There were many fun things for the kids to participate in. Some of the favorites appeared to be the petting zoo, the pony rides and the bounce house.

This weekend the Baptist Men are hosting their annual BBQ. Please swing by and check it out, the BBQ is great and the proceeds will go towards local mission projects. The last few years the church has taken a group of people to Mississippi to work in the areas still greatly damaged by Katrina. It is amazing to think how bad some areas down there still are, and that happened so long ago now. I hope to see you at the BBQ on Saturday. By the way the Church is located near the corner of Hwy 51 (Matthews-Mint Hill Rd.) and Hwy 218 (Wilgrove-Mint Hill Rd. or Fairview Rd.) you can't miss us, right next to the CVS on the corner.

Fall Festival - October 13th..

I just wanted to let everyone know that our Church will be holding it's 1st Annual Fall Festival. Here is a flyer that gives a general idea of what is going on at the church. We are located right next to the CVS at the corner of HWY 51 (Matthews -Mint Hill Rd. and Wilgrove - Mint Hill Rd.) We can be easily accessed off of Interstate 485 - Take exit 44 and follow the signs toward Mint Hill, once at the light at the corner of 51 (BP , CVS, Shell, Bank of America) hang a left and we are right next to the CVS.

We hope to see you there, should be a great time.

Garbage..

The Panthers were absolute Garbage this weekend, and here is a quote from one of my favorite defensive players on the team. He sums up all the fans feelings perfectly I believe. He also goes on to talk about how we are showing NO HEART, NO PRIDE. Get em Kris.


Kris Jenkins says "You all ready (clears throat)? All right, I’m going to be honest. I think the players owe the fans an apology. I would be as upset as they are if I had to sit in the stands for four hours and look at that garbage. I’m going to be honest with you. That’s what it was, garbage. "


If you want to read the entire quote - http://blogs.charlotte.com/panthers/2007/09/jenkins-blasts-.html

Here is another interesting article on the Charlotte Observer about every play in the game, and what Julius Peppers did (or didn't do I should say.) I just hope he gets over whatever is making look very ordinary.

At the very end of the game (yes we were still there of course) there was a kid screaming his head off (not sure exactly what he was saying, but it was funny) I just wish the Panthers could of heard him, because this kid was pouring his heart out.

PS. Panthers he had way more heart then you did

Mint Hill Madness..

The town of Mint Hill had it's annual parade and celebration in the park this weekend. My son and wife were in the parade, as JD attends our churches Play School as you can see in the banner. They are the one's waving, he had a blast participating in the parade. We were not able to attend the carnival rides this year, but it looked like everyone had a blast, and every year this event just gets bigger and bigger. If you are in the area you should check it out next year.

Happy Birthday April..

My beautiful wife will also be celebrating her birthday this Sunday. I don't think there is anything she would rather do on her birthday then attend a football game.

Am I a lucky guy or what?

Love You Baby.
