The Klitzke Khronicles (Anything Goes! Ok, Almost Anything!)

 

Today, I’m truly saddened. Here’s a guy people from my generation grew up listening to and idolizing and just like that, he’s gone. My only regret is, I never got to see him perform “live.”

One can go on and on about the trials and tribulations in his life, but I’m not saying another word. I’m letting my favorite MJ song say the rest….

Dont Stop Til You Get Enough - Michael Jackson

Sorry…..You should have all known better, but I couldn’t resist:

Well, I may as well continue my “uffed up legal system” rant here.

A dude driving a Bentley (drunk) runs over a pedestrian and kills him. Because he fully cooperated and settled with the the victim’s family at sonic speed, our legal system throws him in jail for only 30 days? Wow! Granted, Stallworth lost his driver’s license for life, but that beats spending 7-15 years in prison, doesn’t it? Again, wow! And oh yeah…He’ll be playing football in the NFL this fall again.

To all of the Mike Vick haters out there…Mike didn’t kill another human being. Mike killed a few nasty pit bulls, that’s all. Remember this when Mike is making his comeback this summer.

Read this story….Initially (last fall when the story broke) I felt bad for the guy, but now, all I have to say is “FIRST CLASS LOSER!” Talk about spiraling out of control fast.

Startribune.com Jeff Dubay Story 6-16-09

I normally wouldn’t comment on a story like this, but I can’t help but think that this is “karma” of some sort. I’ve listened to Dubay for years comment on similar stories involving professional athletes. While I can’t specifically remember the details of those stories, anyone who listened to Dubay knows the guy made many derogatory comments regarding professional athletes and their off-the-field woes. What goes around comes around, huh?  

One last question…How in the hell does a guy test positive for cocaine 12 TIMES, flunk out of his court ordered diversion program TWICE, and still manages to roam the streets free? Talk about a flawed legal system!

It’s finally here! We’re heading to Chi-Town tonight for the Twins series.

Keep your eyes peeled. I’m sittin’ 2nd row, behind home plate, slightly towards the Twins dugout.

Pictures will follow later this weekend…Weather looks good too!

Somebody please summons Al Gore…And send him and his hairdo straight to the Midwest. As we speak (2307 CST on 6/6/09), it’s currently 46F here in MN. In western North Dakota, they recorded the latest snowfall in the past 60 years today. Snow….On June 6th!

It’s been a while since I posted anything. With the Winsted Wildcats season in full gear (yes, I’m attempting to play another season) and spending every available minute with Sophie & Kaya, it doesn’t leave much time for my blogging. Now that I think about it, that’s probably a good thing!

Kaya is a healthy 10lbs and has grown 2 inches already. To date, she has been an absolutely perfect baby. She actually slept 6 straight hours Saturday night, giving mom the night off! Kaya is extremely alert and is following us by turning her head when we walk across the room. She also enjoys “alone time” on her “play system” a couple of times each day. She hasn’t started exercising her voice yet, but I’m sure that’ll start any day now! And her neck strength is tremendous. At times, she’ll hold her head up for 10+ minutes by herself. It’s fun watching her change every single day!

As for mom…Amy is enjoying her time off with Kaya and cannot believe she’s at the “halfway point” of her leave already! It goes so fast! Mommy and Kaya take daily walks which Kaya appears to love. She barely makes a sound the entire hour they’re gone.

A couple of “firsts” this past week

1. Kaya attended her first Winsted Wildcats game on Friday, May 29th. 2009. And yes, she witnessed daddy freeze on a belt high, hanging curveball for strike-three.
2. Kaya heard her 1st “curse word” after daddy struck out.
3. Kaya watched her first Yankees game this evening (she started noticing the TV and stares at it).
4. Kaya made her first trip to Target Corp today. Mommy brought her to her work to show her off to her co-workers. Kaya slept almost the entire day.

Other than that, just life is happening. I’ll get more photos posted when time permits.
