Getting older isn't just about arm flab or memory loss. It has its advantages like senior discounts or two for one at IHOP (between the hours of 4 and 6pm only). It's not much different than the terrible twos but without the spankings....that is unless you want one.

Go Thunder
Today is Thunder Day here at the hospital. The Oklahoma City Thunder mascot, Rumble, and a few cheerleaders are coming out this afternoon for a carnival with our patients.

This should be interesting. I know when I was a kid a big hairy buffalo would have scared the bejeebers our of me. It was really great of the Thunder to do this for our kids though. Everyone is wearing their Thunder gear (t-shirts) and gearing up for the visit.
Well, Rumble just left and he was a "BIG" hit with the kids. I only saw one child crying but the rest of them just loved the big ole hairy fella. It was really great of the Thunder team to send Rumble out to visit us.
I wanted to be a Dallas Cowboys cheerleader. I should have aspired to be an Oklahoma cheerleader. But I think I am too short. But I might be able to wear the mascot costume. Interesting post-retirement career...
I am a 66 year old who after 34 years of being alone married my best friend in the whole world on May 7, 2011. All good things are worth waiting for. My loving husband joined me as a primary caregiver to my 67 year old brother who has battled the disease of Schizophrenia since he was 19 years old.

This made me smile about the big harry buffalo as another friend of mine shares how even clowns can freak out kids when visiting at hospitals.
I guess you can never really know.

It's amazing the good work ball teams do in their off time.
I could see my 5 year old grand son being freaked by the hairy mascot, but he would be taken with the cheer leaders.
