So Greg has had the Golf tourneys on constantly and I kept hearing this one guy's name that I recognized..Rocco Mediate. Turns out I taught his son, Rocco, my first and second year teaching in Jax Beach, FL. I held many a conference with the man and the Stepford wife, but never much knew he was a big time golfer. I knew he played, but I lived outside of Sawgrass, so who didn't? Anyhoo, apparently he wasn't "up to par" (hee hee) when I was a huge part of his family's life!! j/k
I don't consider athletes celebs. At least not the ones I'm obessed with. I prefer movie stars. So, just my luck that one of my very few contacts with any sort of famous person would be someone whom I did not even realize was famous! Oh, that same teaching experience I taught Kane Sears-- nephew of THE Dr. Sears. Didn't know he was big either! I just thought it wierd that youngest boy, Hobbie (as in the surfware) tried to enroll in Kindergarten and he was still brest-feeding, they all slept in The Family Bed, the were big-time naturalists/surfer dudes, hippies, etc and Kim, the mom kept getting on me about my diet (or lack of), even though I was early twenties and wore size 4!!!. She gave me a stack of nutritional books (autographed, "The Sears Family") Perhaps I need to dig up those ole Nutritional books, huh?
OK--- Just my uninteresting thoughts for the night.

Just checked this morning and saw you were blogging... good for you! Summer allows so much, doesn't it?
My family just left Friday and we leave for Colorado tomorrow until Sunday, but after that I hope to have some great summer days at home. We really should get the little ones together to hang out.
