The Associated Press: 3 tornadoes rip through Va.; more than 200 people hurt: “SUFFOLK, Va. (AP) — Weary residents and business owners, some awakening in emergency shelters, braced themselves to see what was left of their homes and livelihoods Tuesday after three tornadoes smashed houses, piled cars on each other and injured more than 200 people.

One twister in this city outside Norfolk cut a zigzagging path 25 miles long through residential areas, obliterating some homes in sprays of splintered lumber while leaving others just a few feet away untouched.”

Wanted Man

Wanted Man
-The Slackers

if you see me hanging round, you don’t know me
don’t stare at me for too long

i’m a wanted man in colorado, wanted man in buffalo
wanted man in kansas city, wanted man in ohio
wanted man in california, wanted man in old cheyenne
whatever you may look tonight you might see this wanted man

i might be in alabama or georgia by the sea
working for some man who don’t know who i may be
if you should see me comin and you know who i am
don’t grieve into nobody cause you know i’m on the lam

if you see me hanging round, you don’t know me
don’t stare at me for too long

i’m a wanted man by lucy johnson, wanted man by lucy brown
wanted man by suzy thompson, wanted man in this texas town
see i had all that i wanted of a lot of things i had
and a lot more and i need it some things that turned out bad

i got sidetracked in el paso, had to find myself a map
i took a wrong way down to juarez, with the needle of my lap
went sleeping _____, woke up in new orleans
wondering how i wanted some town halfways in between

wanted man in tallahassee, wanted man in syracuse
wanted man in cincinatti, wanted man in baton rouge
somebody sent to grab me anyway that i might be
and wherever you may look tonight you might catch a glimpse on me

if you see me hanging round, you don’t know me
don’t stare at me for too long

i’m wanted man in california, wanted man in buffalo
wanted man in kansas city, wanted man in ohio
wanted man in alabama, wanted man in old cheyenne
wherever you may look tonight you might see this wanted man
wanted man in alabama…
wanted man in buffalo….

Kicking me while I’m down…

Nieves’ first career homer sinks Cubs in 9th inning — chicagotribune.com

WASHINGTON – The brand-spanking-new Nationals Park has just about everything you could ask for in a modern ballpark.

There’s a Sony Playstation Pavilion, a karaoke station, a Build-a-Bear workshop, a jungle gym and a high-definition, Jumbotron scoreboard that’s billed as one of the biggest in the world.

With all those diversions, it’s easy to forget Washington is the worst team in the National League, entering Friday night’s game against the Cubs with 16 losses in its previous 20 games.

But the Nationals still found a way to beat the Cubs, handing them a 5-3 loss on Wil Nieves’ two-run, walk-off home run off Bob Howry…

Happy Friday!

Everyone have a great weekend!

The company maintained dossiers on card counters, serial jackpot winners, and other individuals, chiefly professional gamblers using legal techniques to gain an advantage in casino games; these profiles were regularly published in the Griffin Book, and distributed to subscribing casinos. Griffin Investigations was instrumental in ending the MIT Blackjack Team’s winning streak….
