As most of you are probably aware of, a bridge on one of Minnesota's biggest highways collapsed into the Mississippi River today, killing several and injuring many. I feel it is pertinent to make mention of this and to encourage you all to turn your thoughts and prayers to those who are experiencing the impact of the event. It was indeed a shock.

It hit close to home for me too, because I attend school only a couple miles from the bridge and have crossed it often on the weekend. I called my buddy today to make sure he was ok, and apparently he avoided taking that bridge today on his way home from work. Had he not, it could have been quite possible that he could have been caught up in the traumatic experience there. It's tough to imagine how panicked many of the families of the victims must be. I wish the best to those involved in the accident and hope for a quick recovery.

So the Colts finally took one home. Chicago kept the first half fairly interesting, and they made Indi nervous off the start. But once they got their rhythm, the dominated the play. Peyton Manning one his big game at last, and Tony Dungy finally gets due credit for coaching excellence.

Prince also dominated the halftime show. Commercials were fairly mediocre this year. I have to say my faves included the Snickers "Something Manly", GM's "Suicidal Equipment", the various Careerbuilder.com jungle scenes, and Taco Bell's lions. What were your's?

OK, here's the scoop:

I'm involved with a high school drama group of about 52 kids that is taking a Tour throughout the Midwest & East Coast. We're performing "Godspell". For those of you unfamiliar with it, it's a play from the '60s about the Gospel according to Matthew, with the classic '60s hippie twist. Our production lasts a total of about 1 hr 45 min. At times, it's a very comedic play, and at others, very dramatic. Below are the locations of our performances. If we're around your area, come and see it. PM me if you are interested and would like further info as to what church, and what time the performance begins.

Friday, June 16th - Park Ridge, IL

Sunday, June 18th - Meriden, CT

Monday, June 19th - Bronx, NYC, NY

Wednesday, June 21st - Bowie, MD

I highly encourage seeing it. You don't have to be religious to enjoy it either. I've had several non-religious friends show up, and they had a great time. It'll be free of charge, but there will be a free-will offering to support our cause. Anywho, let me know via PM if you're interested and I'll get you more details.

So it appears Spoon is celebrating a birthday...

Cheers! May your ravishing persona continue to strike fear in the hearts of many for years to come.

Topic name and description sums it all up. I've noticed quite a bit of it going on around here lately. Things have been popping up that I am almost sure would have stayed in the crypt. There's been a few members, but one sticks out plainly (will leave this name anonymous, although they're pretty obvious). Despite fellow member warnings, it just keeps happening. Is this the latest troll fad?

I'm posting this merely because I'm tired of seeing age-old topics back at the top of the forums. Rather than coaxing them onward, I thought I'd voice this here as a concerned member. It would be nice to end it.
