Beta Pi:
IS "BETA PI BLOG" JUNK E-MAIL?: Yes, and no! It is not this e-mail. This e-mail contains some written content of the "Beta Pi Blog", not the entire content. The "blog" is actually a web-site, it includes pictures, links, Archives of previous issues, and other time-wasters. THE BLOG HAS MOVED TO A NEW ADDRESS. To get there, go to web address: http://beta-pi-blog.blogspot.com/ .
THE BLOG HAS MOVED TO A NEW ADDRESS:A few weeks ago, I got an e-mail from AOL - basically it said "we are no longer going to provide free blog service, get ready to be up-rooted, effective October 31st. So, I followed the links, and there is a new home for Beta Pi Blog - its called Blogspot.
The transition went fairly well, except there are no pictures for the issues between August 2006 and March 2007. Big deal, right? I expect there are few hits on those pages anyway.
It has a different look, and will be evolving.
SPORTS PAGE GOES EXTINCT: Well, the Dores are looking fine, then they get beaten by Mississippi State and the faithful go verclempt! Prior to that game, Frank Biller promised me a sports column - then, nothing. Even the Boss Stien Sports Microscope column (one to two potent words) fell silent. Only Aber remained pumped about the Dores, with his usual Gridiron notes. Some pouty-faced Dores fans are expected at Homecoming.

HOMECOMING - - TICK-A-LO’s-O-78 UPDATE: Brother Dick Stoner sent me a very kind e-mail, with a rundown of those Mighty Tics-o-78. Dick writes:
"I'll check with the techies at my company to see the best place currently for blog hosting. IT sure would be great to have audio also hosted, so that you could start of the next session with " Somebody Loan me a Dime" and bring back the memory of that fight. IT's not looking to good for the class of 1978 making it to Reunion to accompany the 1973 bunch which seems to be coming together. Greg Qualls ( Mr. Baldo, or Sheffield/Muscle Shoals Greg) will be driving up for Saturday's game. You should be able to see that beacon atop his 51 year old engineering head ! Have a great time.
We'll try to ship off McGann in a box or some other container so that he can attend. Hearts and I were hoping to drive, with McGann sprawled across the back seat of one of our 1960's, 70's or 80's historic rattle traps, but it just isn't working that way at present.
Regards, and best of luck with your "farm" which I hope will allow you to play in the dirt a bit on weekends.
Dick"
THANKS TO PRINCE HERB LADLEY!: Herb, thank you so much for sending me the BOZ SCAGGS album - listening to that great blues number "Somebody Loan Me a Dime" did indeed bring back memories of Fight Night. How kind of you. Be well, my good friend.
