Chris's HydroCar

Chris's HydroCar

This is my FCJJ-20 “Hydrocar” which I got for Christmas. It runs totally on Water! I was itching to get home and put it together. It took me a little while to complete and I needed some bottled water. I was able to get the water from Grandmas, so I went back to work after we got home. I finished putting it together and got it running this morning (the 26th). It runs great, just add water, and turn it on. After becoming addicted to the science of this little toy, I made a video of it, and had dad upload it to the site. Click here to check it out!

Umpires Hit Back ???

Umpires Hit Back ???

Sometimes an official, through no fault of his own, will get caught up in the middle of a play and inadvertently make contact with a player. Sometimes an official just feels like making a tackle. Sometimes an official is concerned that a player has been programmed to kill the Queen of England and is forced to take matters into his own hands.

Whatever happened yesterday, here are some terrific action shots of NFL umpire Lieutenant Frank Drebin Garth DeFelice taking out Rams running back Kenneth Darby yesterday. Getty Images photographer Dilip Vishwanat was johnny-on-the-spot yesterday, and the world thanks for him for it.

How the heck do you lose to a team with a record of 1-11-1?  No Playoffs this year!

CINCINNATI (AP)—Doesn’t take a genius to figure out the Washington Redskins are in a mess of trouble. The Redskins lost for the fifth time in six games Sunday, unable to keep up with one of the NFL’s lowliest teams. Ryan Fitzpatrick ran for a touchdown and threw for another, leading the Cincinnati Bengals to a 20-13 victory that ended Washington’s week of grousing.

Myers Auto in Waldorf is AWESOME! They showed up within an hour of me calling to pick up the van and tow it to their shop. They also called this afternoon to let me know the van will be ready for pick up tomorrow - Just in time to take Grandma Holiday shopping.
