(image removed) Relive the past glory of this tie HERE: TIE OF THE DAY: 040223 (The W)

It's really tough for me to try to pick up a lot of cases today since I'll be out for training for the next four days and it does me no good to pick up anything I won't be able to close today. So I'm kinda sittin' around instead. IT'S A LIVING

Yesterday we hit the Star of the North Antique sale and I have to say when the weather's like this, I'm a BIG fan of walking around an air conditioned convention center looking at old stuff. Again I was tempted by some "vintage" ties, except they were mostly too small and I can't bring myself to pay $15 for a tie even if it IS super cool.

It occurs to me that I've once again missed the 7.7 anniversary of my opening [slash] wrestling, and as much as I'd like to blame it on terrorism, it's really more a demonstration of how far down my ladder wrestling has slipped. In my defense, however, THIS year I managed to notice I'd forgotten it on my own, rather than having to have been reminded by Cubs - speaking of which, look at HIS 7/7 post from LAST year (thecubsfan.com) and wonder why he didn't have one this year either - and remember, I COULD just ask him myself, but then what would I type here?

This always leads me into another round of pointless nostalgia - well, maybe not AS pointless as I would probably be genuinely interested in how people like E.C. Ostermeyer or Jerry Root or NPR's Laura are doing and if THEY'RE still bothering with wrestling, but I am the first to admit I'm much too lazy to go out of my way to look any of them up.

That's probably the best thing about these Internet relationships as opposed to real-life relationships - long after they've dropped off the radar, you never have to pretend you don't remember who they are/can't see them because you've happened to end up in opposite ends of the same room. If any of these people Google their names and end up HERE, they are free to ignore it and I'll never be the wiser. Whew!

(Or.... RATS)

BYE

Erm, what was Cub's 7/7 post from last year? Unless you meant this (The W)?

I think CRZ was referring to http://www.thecubsfan.com/updates/000613.shtml , which was referenced in http://the-w.com/thread.php/id=21031 .

Basically, 7/7 is an anniversary for both Slashwrestling (RIP), and is also the anniversary of The Cubs Fan's first wrestling recap, which incidentally is at http://www.thecubsfan.com/worldwide/19970707.htm .

EDIT: Just call me the king of arcane the-w.com knowledge, eh? ;-)

I never got back to this post? Huh.

I didn't anything this year because I, uh, completely forget and didn't have much to do and was too depressed about the Cubs that day to be moody about the website. Maybe I'll do something for the .com anniversary, if I remember? If I decide which day that is this year? I dunno.

Just got a new date keeper and really needed it.

(Let me look at this list: Yes!, no but sorta working on it, have no plan of getting THERE, haha no, sure, sure, still not a funny joke)
