no, i'm not taking this to the columbus community.

i am serious.

best reasonable offer for a 1994 oldsmobile achieva. it has 111,000+ miles.

it has a host of problems. bad exhaust, cracking head gasket, windows and a/c do not work, cracked engine frame. driver's side door will not open from inside and on and on.

the body is in very good condition though, little rust. it starts up, everytime. the fuel injection system is newer. tires fair to good. it hasn't been driven much in the last three years. clear title.

nice car for parts. buy now before we sell it to wirthman's next week.

"Kelly was the best tonight. The gal's got some raw talent that needs to be brought out. She can really use some stage presence though."

Letterman rescues Zombies

I thought Smith got hurt by falling off a ladder at home though?

NEW YORK -- Late night TV host David Letterman lent a hand after an Air
France plane crash-landed at Toronto's Pearson airport.

Letterman sent his private jet to Hamilton's airport to rescue the 1960's
rock band The Zombies, who were stranded when the crash halted flights in
Toronto.

Zombies members Rod Argent and Colin Blunstone were en route to New York to
do two shows at B.B. King Blues Club and Grill in honour of Mike Smith, lead
singer of The Dave Clark Five.

Smith was in a brutal car accident two years ago from which he is still
recovering.

Jim Kelly's 8-Year-Old Son Hunter Dies By JOHN WAWROW, AP Sports Writer

BUFFALO, N.Y. - Hunter Kelly, whose battle with a fatal nervous system
disease inspired his Hall of Fame father Jim Kelly's charitable works,
died Friday morning. He was 8.

"Our prayers go to the family and kids," Jim Kelly's brother, Dan, told
The Associated Press.

Born in 1997, Hunter Kelly was given no more than three years to live
after being diagnosed with Krabbe Disease, an inherited degenerative
disorder of the central and peripheral nervous systems. The disease
hinders development of the myelin sheath, a fatty covering that
protects the brain's nerve fibers.

In honor of their son, Jim Kelly and his wife, Jill, established the
Hunter's Hope Foundation in 1997, which has raised more than $6 million
and awarded more than $3.8 million to leukodystrophy and other
neurological disease-related research.

The disease has no known cure.

Jim Kelly, who won an unprecedented four straight AFC titles as the
Bills' quarterback in the early 1990s, had credited his son for serving
as his inspiration after he retired from football following the 1996
season.

"He'll never be able to do what daddy did," Kelly said last year. "But
he's going to do greater things. He's going to make a difference in
kids' lives. He already has."

Kelly and his son happened to share the same birthday, Valentine's
Day.

The Kelly family was preparing to issue a press release later in the
day, Dan Kelly said.

Lullabyland Lullabyland

This is a part of Greenlawn known as Lullaby land. The graves you see on the ground around the statue are all of infants. Cooper Stadium is in the background.
Hawk Hawk

This is a bird that flew past and overhead very quietly. At first, I thought it was an owl, but when I got closer I saw it was a red tailed hawk. It's right in the center of the pic.

He looked at me and cried out. Pretty cool.
