On the Eighth Day...

Bronze refulgence heats
womb waters to expel their
Crusted eggs of bone.

Last I heard Gerard.. McNabb wants to go to Chicago, his old home town, and Vick is supposed to be traded too and they intend to start Kevin Kobb... one of my sons is a stone Eagles fan so he keeps me informed.. but watching ESPN faithfully this is the scuttlebutt I hear nightly... do u ever watch PTI? Pardon the Interruption .. with Tony Kornheiser and Mike Wilbaun? those guys are great and nuts.. my pick this year... GIANTS.. who do u like my friend? thankxxx for complimenting my skills luv
