It was announced yesterday that Greg Oden of the Portland Trail Blazers, had his third microfracture surgery in 4 years. That’s unbelievable!

It was August 26th 1995, just after 8 o’clock on a balmy 94-degree summer evening in a modest southern California suburb, just outside of San Fernando.

The 54th Grammy Awards were pretty underwhelming. I guess I should have seen that coming, because the field of awards was underwhelming. So as expected, Adele was the big winner.
