# I came home from work one day to find my wife, Jo Lynn cradling our six-month-old daughter and repeating, “Da Da, Da Da” Good, How sweet I thought to myself for the “DaDa” as a baby’s first word. Several weeks later, Jo Lynn and I were awakened by a small voice crying, “Da Da.” Turning over to go back to sleep, my wife said, “she’s calling to you dear.”

On a long Sunday of football my wife commented that the TV networks must think the average fan is pretty stupid because they have to show the whole game over again with replays. I told her it was not the IQ of the average fan, but at any time during any game somewhere there was a wife walking in front of the TV during a crucial play.

@ Driver Stan Friesen on the Silver State classic challenge road race, where some amateurs can hit speeds of more than 200 mph on a two-lane road: “I feel safer in this race than I do during my commute. Nobody is making phone calls, putting on makeup or reading the newspaper while they drive.”
