UMBC...An Honors University
Weee doggie...attended an Alum reception in the Public Policy Bldg Atrium last night and folks - it was stupendous! President Hrabowski has done so much for this school ...to be corny....it isn't funny! Back in my day there were a mere handful of buildings filled to capacity. The school grew in small spurts a few years post graduation - but there has been an explosion!!!!! - the last few years. IT truly is a remarkable place! One of the key points driven home last night was that the school is now becoming known for it's athletic department and for athletes WHO GRADUATE most WITH HONORS!...Quite a feat in these days where some facilities allow the athletics to overshadow the academics.
Next month I attend a dinner a few days before Thanksgiving at Martin's West for my High School Alum - B.P.I. (that's POLY).
Hope to see some folks there..

Will I See You There?
Ole Stanky will be trekking out to the Timonium Fairgrounds on the 29th of the month - that being October - to attend the Baby Boomer Expo / Senior Expo. Makin' it early to get the whole day of stuff in.
Finished reading Vonnegut's Armageddon in Retrospect. I'm a Vonnegut fan from back in High School days. It was sad day when he passed.
Today there will be a visit to Quarry Liquors way out Old Court. Neat place. The entire shopping area is built around one side of a large quarry while the other side contains mega bucks condos. Anyhoo these guys run a monthly 6 for $60 wine deal and the offerings to be showcased today sound scrumptious! Maybe we'll roll down to the wine tasting at DiWines on Reistertown Rd. These guys always feature some really top notch stuff. Very helpfull staff. Turned us onto a very nice Italian Primitivo just last week.
How 'bout them Rays!...would love to see the BoSox flame out (just like the Cubbies)!..Rays and Phils????
Week 6 of the NFL is a separation week if teams let the frontrunners go up and put space 'tween 'em. C'mon Ravens!!!!

Who's bailin' who????
Well Ole Stanky gotta say it - who in the Hell is bailin' out the rich white folk up on Wall Street - why it's you and me. Let's be real here - the Wall Streeters done sold you a sheeeeeeeeeeeeit house and made a $$$$$ off of it and now ooops -the sheeeeeeeit house is well what it really is...
I say we all pull our hard earned $$$ outta these crudballs banks and go back to stashin' in the mattress. Heck we all got some good "firepower" so let the bad boys c'mon...when they get all whacked out - the poo poo can kill 2 birds with 1 stone
If I'm movin' too fast fer ya - oh well.
