no i didn't race. I had no business being on a pool deck. those notable swimmers also had siblings that swam like fish too. but looking back, we were all very lucky to learn to swim in that environment.by JoeMad - Bucky's Pub

that Gibson V is beautiful... snap that up! i had Michael Schenker Dean V. I really liked the look and the neck of the guitar, but i found it uncomfortable to play while sitting down when noodling on the guitar, thus I sold it. That thing had some nice sounding hot pickups and looked very cool. I sold to a young kid that absolutely loved UFO ... he was a happy clam My arsenal: 1980by JoeMad - Bucky's Pub
Santa Clara High School 23 Olympic Gold Medals (26 total medals) Mark Spitz and Coach Haines - 2 years ago
my high school was the swimming mecca of the USA .. we had a lot of "fast water" in our swimming pools. Coach Haines was the US Olympic coach from the 1966 through 1980. He built a powerhouse, an elite swim club and a world class swim center.... Medal count does not include Pan American Games or regional competition.

how old is your dog? - 2 years ago
our lab is 13... she has what we think is vestibular (aka dog vertigo), she gets these about 4x per year the last 2-3 years. Symptoms are like she's having a stroke and similar to what you described. We did blood work, every came back fine. We've been riding it out and making her as comfortable as possible when these happen... recovery after each seizure takes a bit longer 3-4 days,by JoeMad - Bucky's Pub
what treatment for vascular migraines - 2 years ago
glad to hear she has been diagnosed with nothing grave.... but this still needs to be treated. vascular migraines are not fun, until you find the right Rx to treat it and ID the triggers of the headaches..... The calcium channel blockers are a group of medications that have been used for treating a variety of cardiovascular disorders such as high blood pressure.

i've been recently watching many Rams games from this Anaheim era on YouTube ... the Rams defense was outstanding back then. specifically, 1985.... everyone remembers Buddy Ryan's 4-6 Bear's defense, but the Rams defense was also pretty good back then. The 1985 divisional playoff game vs Dallas.. sure folks remember Dickerson's 250 rushing yards and Deiter's woeful 6 completions, but theby JoeMad - RamsFootballFans.com

Re: Update on Roxy.... the Siberian Husky - 3 years ago
Our lab is also named Roxy...... she's old.. has a touch of arthritis with occasional vestibular attacks .... she has her good days and bad days, but still a sweet loving dog..... There's only 2 left from her litter, (her brother Gilligan is still alive, who lives about 75 miles away) at my age I'm not sure i can replace her... it takes a lot of time and consistency to train and raise a dog...by JoeMad - Bucky's Pub

HBO Fires Back on Jerry's demands....(2 articles) - 3 years ago
i've always admired Jerry West since I was a kid. West is one of the few great players that transitioned from being a great player to a very good coach and a great executive.. Not many great players have made that transition.... but as great as he's been at the executive level..... there's got to be a reason why the Lakers, Warrriors, and Memphis didn't renew his contract as an executive....by JoeMad - Bucky's Pub

Dr. Buss and his daughter... visionaries in creating a new game day experience and building a winner.... I didn't realize how broke they were and how chaotic that roster was... Dr Buss certainly knows how to grease the skids to get stuff done his way. I remember a lot of these events happening, but not at that level of detail.... excellent casting of those characters.

I've seen it... all the episodes... it's not a bad show. but to me it doesn't live to all the hype... . other than Kevin Costner, the acting isn't very good....some scense are like a B Movie.... Although, I do like Rip Wheeler's character and the actor who plays him..... he played a high school football linemen in the movie Dazed and Confused... another actor who isn't too bad is Dutton's laby JoeMad - Bucky's Pub
