Boom, Boom, Out Go the Lights

Anybody remember this old chestnut? Pat Travers?

I'm taking a slight hiatus. Test Case had another seizure which was the result of an unhappy collision of bad decision making and medication that is no longer working so well. And it happened at an unusual time of day. I hope to get the meds problem resolved this week after the blood tests come back.
I just feel depressed right now and stressed out...

Linfield College: Home of the Wildcats

Linfield College, McMinnville Oregon
As one of the oldest colleges in the west, Linfield recently celebrated their 150th anniversary.
Linfield is a tiny school with under 3,000 students.
They are a perennial football powerhouse at the division III level. In 2004 they won the D3 national championship.






The Wildcats hold the national collegiate record for most consecutive winning seasons at 51.

Their season opener is this Saturday against Western Oregon (nonleague game)
.

My son (FPM, middle child, age 19) is #85, fighting for playing time at the tight end position. He is a sophomore. He spent his freshman year on the scout team (practice squad) as a defensive end. He was converted to TE at the end of last season and he is now on the varsity squad.
Go Wildcats!
I will give periodic updates and try hard not to bore those of you who don't like sports.
