BBTW "I Get No Respect!"

Romeoville, IL 02/20/09
Attendance 23
Four Hat Tricks!

The Reds got off to a great start when Tom "TO" O'Connor beat the Brain early with a Meaningful goal, but the Whites went on to score 4 unanswered goals.  The Reds closed the gap to 4-3 with goals by TZ and the Bookie, but that was a close as they could get, as Back Hand Johnny put 2 quick ones past the Anvil and the rout was on.  Bill BTW, JZ and V-Man posted Hat Tricks with a goal and 4 assists going to Tom "T&A" Ambrosia.  Brinks tied the Meaningful score with a third period tap in. TZ had a Hat for the Reds to make the final meaningless score Whites 11, Reds 5.  The Meaningful score was 1-1, but the Reds edged the Whites again at the Bar, 7-6.  Stump had the "Terry Fall-O-Meter" spinning early, as he recorded 2 unassisted falls, but Terry came on strong in the 3rd period to win again.

Bill BTW was on a "No Respect" rant at BWW after he was asked about his underwear.


"Who Took my BVDs?"

Bill BTW had his BVDs disappear this week while he was in the shower.  He went on a Rodney Dangerfield like rant at the bar when he was asked about the incident.  He said, "I get no respect!  That ain't right.  Those guys are homos, I never had problems like this in the senior locker room." 
Rodney Dangerfield was the master of self-deprecating humor.
I said to the bartender "Surprise me." He pulled out a naked picture of my wife.
When my wife has sex with me there's always a reason. The other night she used me to time an egg.
My psychiatrist told me I was crazy and I said I want a second opinion. He said okay, you're ugly too.
It's been a rough day. I got up this morning, put on a shirt and a button fell off. I picked up my briefcase, and

the handle came off. I'm afraid to go to the bathroom…
His epitaph on his tombstone reads "There goes the neighborhood"… No respect even in death! R.I.P. Rodney and thank you for the laughs…
Don't miss the Comet
Look to the south after 1:00AM all week.  Read more...

Last Friday, I thought I was sitting next to this guy.

Space Weather News for Feb. 23, 2009

COSMIC COINCIDENCE: What are the odds? On Tuesday, Feb. 24th, Saturn and Comet Lulin will converge in the constellation Leo only 2 degrees apart. At the same time, Comet Lulin will be making its closest approach to Earth--the comet at its best!-- while four of Saturn's moons transit the disk of the ringed planet in view of backyard telescopes. Oh, and the Moon will be New, providing dark skies for anyone who wishes to see the show.

The best time to look is around 1 a.m. Tuesday morning (your local time) when the planet-comet combo ascend high in the southern sky. To the unaided eye, Comet Lulin looks like a faint patch of gas floating next to golden Saturn. Point your backyard telescope at that patch and you will see a lovely green comet with a double tail.

Visit http://spaceweather.com for full coverage including photos, sky maps, and a live webcast.

Geographic Notes: Comet Lulin is visible from all parts of the globe--all longitudes and both hemispheres. Directions are reversed in the southern hemisphere; there the comet is located in the northern sky around 1 am.  Saturn is globally visible, too, but the special quadruple transit of Saturn's moons starting around 3 a.m. PST on Feb. 24th is visible only to observers around the Pacific Rim.  Details may be found here:
