Beautiful Zenith Antonio, you are obviously a man of taste, sophistication and class. One question though, why are you here?

Amazing what one can do with boiled meat.

Happy Birthday Tom!

Your birthday is today in my time zone so Happy Birthday!

I luvs me some Zenith.

Happy belated Birthday!

Easy for you to say Antonio others might disagree.

Fie World Championships day three. Exciting action and impressive speed of the competitors. Is it just me or does anyone else have the hots for the Russian women fencers just because they wear white uniforms and wield blade weapons?

Odd thing, my 13 year old son calls all the points scored correctly with the referees even the complicated attacks. I can barely call a quarter of the points and only with the slow motion replay. Old eyes=slow eyes.

Massialas wins! He advances to the gold medal round. Go USA

Yummy X2!!

FIE World Championships day two...duh!

Damn, Daryl only got the silver. Well done my man, Silver for the worlds aint too shabby. Yakimenko was on fire and would not be beat. Since Lance's coaches are Russian, when not fencing an american we cheer for the Russian fencers. Watch Lee Kiefer, Miles Chamley Watson and Garrick Meinhart in the coming days. Lee and Garrick are both Notre Dame fencers Lance worked out with Katie Holmes, women's epee, at the Caltech camp last month. The gal is a beast and could probably kick Naaman's ass. I would not fence her for all the Pappy Van Winkle 23 in North America.

Question. What do you do on the July 4th weekend with 900 of your closest friends? We are not in this picture but it gives you some perspective of the venue. Very impressive and at times surreal. I am glad I had wine to decompress with after the event.

Happy Birthday Birgir!

Ok, who made me a "Franzia Fan"? Wise guy.

Will you take, three fiddy and a cookie and a Super Tuscan?

Thanks for the well wishes everyone. I had a great day full of memories of fun times and finished up with a dinner of Osso Bucco Paired with a Villa Antinori...Tuscany FTW!

/\ /\ /\ Five straight shutouts and 513 minutes without conceding a goal, that makes pure hubba hubba as far as I am concerned.
