Doh! I got a call tonight, and it turns out our basketball hook up fell through.
We were going to play at a local gym, but apparently something came up and it won’t be available tomorrow. Sigh.
On the upside, my tennis lesson no longer conflicts with anything, so I’ll be able to make it. I do enjoy tennis, but next to basketball, it just falls short.
I found a nice Notepad replacement for Windows XP called Notepad2. Visit their website or download Notepad2 here.
I’ve been using Notepad2 for about a year now, and I like it. Why? It’s quick. It’s lightweight. It color-codes most of the languages I deal with. And it’s free. How do you beat that?

Gotta love it when you have that competitive spirit. I’m a bit competitive myself, and while I’ve learned to enjoy playing basketball for the fun of it — I still love to win.
In fact, just last week I was shooting hoops at a local park and got in a pick up game. One kid started talking trash to me, said I was out of shape. He was right. But he wasn’t good enough to back it up. So my team routed his team. The first game wasn’t close, 11-7, and the second game we shut them out 6-0 before they scored.
Someday I’ll have to just take that kind of abuse. But not today!
