• More book stuff
My H. is ready for the craft show. I am...not. Fortunately we're sharing a table. I keep getting excited about more ideas rather than getting into production mode. I'm going to have 2 each of lots of different things rather than 20 each of two different things (as I had intended). I don't think I'm cut out for production mode. All I can think about is paper houses and quilling. Must think about finishing a few things! Say, numbers on clocks? On a totally unrelated note, I've been meaning • Review Bloggers Carnival - 31st Edition
Welcome to the November 24, 2008 (Better Late, Than Never) Edition of the Review Bloggers Carnival! It's no secret. I like getting stuff. I like writing about the stuff that we like and perhaps make my family's life a little easier. Especially, if it works! Or, I haven't managed to break it...YET! Do you have a review blog - or, perhaps found a product (or, service) that you really, really like and you're aching to share with the rest of the blogosphere - then, you may be interested to lea • Lehigh 17, Lafayette 12 at halftime
Great first half by the Mountain Hawks. The problem is they're up only up five when they should be up by more. A horrible snap to an unaware J.B. Clark went through the end zone and produced a Lafayette safety and the ensuing kick from the 20 led to a field goal that put the Leopards ahead 12-10. But Clark, who is 9-for-16 for 153 yards at halftime, was 4-for-5 for 82 yards on a brilliant drive that culminated in a 14-yard TD toss to Nick Johnson that returned the lead to the Mountain Hawks • Good start for Lehigh
Lehigh leads Lafayette 10-0 with just over 7 minutes gone in this 144th meeting with Lafayette on College Hill. So far, virtually everything has gone the Brown and White's way. First, Tim Diamond roars through the middle on a blitz and pounded Lafayette QB and Parkland grad Marc Quilling as he threw the ball, leading to an interception by Heath Brickner. That set up Lehigh at their own 49. A big 23-yard strike to Mike Fitzgerald leads to a 40-yard field goal by Jason Leo. Wow, is that a great • Quilling inspiration
