The Kerri Cannon

Three kids, three gold medals (world championships), three names.  Kerri Walsh Jennings.
The Kerri Cannon.  Awesome.

"And learn a little humility" ...  um, yeah.  More than a little.  I just enjoyed watching Kerri Walsh Jennings and April Ross win the Asics Beach Volley Ball championship in Long Beach California.  Thanks NBC.

Unpleasant enough without having to....

Using a port-a-potty is unpleasant enough without having to also "Watch For Rattlesnakes".

I assume that sign is there because someone was scared by, or bitten by a rattlesnake somewhere in California and we are such a litigious state that "if you didn't put a warning sign...." you'd get sued.

This port-a-potty was at Whiting Ranch, next to the parking lot, which was right across the street from a sprawling commercial mall.   Strange...   but I did not see a similar sign when I used the rest room across the street at the Red Robin....

Is Arjen Robben, Pete Postlethwaite's Son?

Watching the 3rd place FIFA soccer match this afternoon, the question in my mind is this:  Is Arjen Robben secretly Pete Postlethwaite's son?  Nephew maybe?

The resemblance is very strong (in my Euro-centric mind, anyways).

I know they are from different countries...  but they are "about" the right age to be father and son.

I welcome all of my visitor's comments.
