Last of Nine: October 2005
http://lastofnine.blogspot.com/2005_10_01_archive.html
Sunday, October 30, 2005. Makes No Sense At All. There was a time, children, when the Big Ten not only included just 10 teams, it included only two annual contenders - Michigan and Ohio State.". This year, the parity infecting the sports world finally reached Big Ten country . . . .". And in the once-predictable realm of Big Ten football, surprising Northwestern, resurgent Penn State and overachieving Wisconsin are tied with Ohio State with only one loss in conference play.". Big Ten Rose Bowl visits by ...

Last of Nine: December 2005

Tuesday, December 13, 2005. You can basically count on the Star Tribune to contain something that's unintentionally hilarious every day. Today's gem was contained in an article about an experimental new nicotine vaccine, which focused on long-time smoker who is trying the vaccine after being unable to kick the habit. According to the article, "[i]n the past, he'd had pretty good luck quitting. But his relapse rate was 100 percent.". Posted by Last of Nine @ 6:31 PM. View my complete profile. The lootings...

Last of Nine: November 2005

Tuesday, November 29, 2005. Maybe he should move there. Aaron McGruder, the Boondocks cartoonist, was recently interviewed by the Onion. Among the other relevations from this interview was that he recently visited the workers' paradise of Cuba, about which he had this to say:. I went to Havana, and I was like, 'Wow, there's culture everywhere! And there's some more culture! Man, that stuff is just everywhere! But Cuba's not America, and America's official policy is that Cuba's bad, so automatically McGru...

Last of Nine: July 2005

Wednesday, July 20, 2005. I don't want any trouble with unions . . . Even more amazing, the Northwest Airlines mechanics' union has voted to authorize a strike, and an labor impasse has been declared, meaning that they could be on strike within 30 days. Now, a part of me understands why they'd be frustrated; the management of the airline continually seeks wage concessions from the unions, even though Gary Wilson, Al Checchi, and the like took untold millions for their services.

Last of Nine: June 2005
http://lastofnine.blogspot.com/2005_06_01_archive.html
Monday, June 27, 2005. When he wasn't accusing me of drug use Swanblog hit me with the survey of reading habits going around the blogosphere. Total number of books owned, ever: really not sure - a lot of textbooks, and other books, have been bought and then sold. Going back to the Scholastic Book Club mail order service you could buy books through in elementary school, where I bought, among others, "Ten Super Sundays: A History of the Super Bowl," I'd guess around 1,000. Last Book I Read: Freakonomics.

Last of Nine: August 2005

Wednesday, August 31, 2005. The looting's not the story, folks. Unless rescue efforts are heroically successful, in a way that is not currently foreseen, almost all of those looters are going to die, along with many others who are both law-abiding and stuck in the city. A simply unfathomable situation will soon be at hand there. These horrific possibilities, I would suggest, are one hell of a lot more important than some looting, and deserve a lot more media attention than they're getting. We believe Pee...

Last of Nine: May 2005

Tuesday, May 31, 2005. Some basic questions, hopefully answered. That's my birth order, and the ninth is the most important inning in a baseball game. Also, when you're this late to the party, most of the good names are taken. I see no need to give away the whole game. The following places, concepts, etc., will give sufficient information as to my past and present:. Hopkins Mendota Heights University of Minnesota attorney editor husband father.
