Jacob is a Michigan fan
Don't know why though
So did anything else happen since the last blogpost?
Why, yes, some other things did indeed happen.
Jacob joined the
Ventura County Fire Department
That happened just before he joined
the Communist Party in Cuba
Alberto went to the Reagan Library
Where he met the ex-President
The Reagan Library has a great
collection of his memerobilia on display . . .

The trip to the Reagan Library inspired us to see more football.
Head Football Coach Jason Sabolic
All of this football inspired Alberto in two ways . . .
Football League game
They beat the Las Vegas Outlaws in a low scoring game, by Arena standards, 37-27.
While I thought we went for purely football reasons . . .
with other goals in mind
Reading Is FUNdamental
(and MANLY too)
The "Lost Generation" at their
most self-absorbed
The Spanish Civil War
is always of interest to me
