Storm last night ad I saw the local Bank of America building it by lightening twice. It was cool. Couldn't find any pics of an actual strike.

Got the 2 day flu this last weekend. Not throwing up but body aches and chills. Got some great tasting cookies. Changed my parking lot so I'm only paying $30/mo instead of $60. Trying to play golf twice a week but the heat and humidity make it tough. AND Reed wrote from Guam ------------------------- I'm having a pretty great time here. Its so awesome seeing all my boys again. We've already made a few songs and we were on the radio after Tyler won the rap battle here. Got to talk about what influenced us and what not about music.

Wow!! This was cool as Guam's soccer team knocks off India 2-1 in a World Cup qualifier. This pic and the story are from the BBC web page reporting the big upset. TJ Atalig and Christian Shweitzer, two of Reed's best friends, are right there in the middle of the pic. A country ranked 174 in the world, with a population of 165,000 and coached by a former Bognor Regis player has beaten India in qualifying for the World Cup. Guam, defeated 16-0 and 19-0 during the 2002 tournament qualifying, recorded their first ever qualifier win with victory over Turkmenistan last week. And now the Asian team, managed by Gary White, has beaten a country with a population of 1.25 billion 2-1 at home. Guam sit top of Group D in round two of Asian 2018 World Cup qualification. Where is Guam? Guam is a Pacific island and a United States territory located 1,626 miles south of Japan. Guam's diverse population includes Japanese, Chinese, and incomers from other Pacific islands. The indigenous Chamorro are a people of mixed Micronesian, Spanish and Filipino descent. Tourism and the US military bases provide the island with its main sources of income. If Guam progress from this round of qualifying they play in an additional round, which sees 12 teams split into two groups of six. The top two teams from each group will qualify for the World Cup. The two third-place teams will play home-and-away over two legs. The winner will advance to the inter-confederation play-offs. White, 40, was previously coach of the British Virgin Islands and Bahamas national team. He is one of 16 coaches on a Football Association scheme created to boost the number of English coaches in the Premier League. He recently told Fifa.com: "Our final outcome that we want is to put Guam football on the map, and I think that's happening already. "And for the team to continue to develop. The prize, if you like, is to get to the World Cup, the Asian Cup, but we'll take each game at a time. It is a special time right now, I don't want to put an end on it. Can we qualify for the World Cup? We know it's going to be a tough road."

So my cousin Ry lined me up to be an extra in this movie. I actually had a line until they cut my scene. I might be shown for maybe half a second during the senate hearing of one of the mobsters but it did make me $100. Anyway they sent me a letter today to tell people to watch it. _____________________________________________________________________________ Hello, Fellow Mobster!

I have been neglecting The blog a bit lately so here's an update. Reed and Jade left for Guam early this morning and I just heard from him as they landed in Hawaii. Last night was Jade's graduation party and there was the whole Denusta family there. I found a place to play some cheap golf. Not a great place but it is only $11/day to play all you want. 9 hole course called Brentwood just 10 minutes from my apt. Oh and I did go and see the T Rex that they featured in the CNN documentary Dinosaur 13.
