Well, Bo-2 (and everyone)...I've got a very UGLY confession to make. And I still can't believe this happened... But while in A-squared for the big House 5K last April, with former poster-colleague "Grey Ghost", for whatever reason---for the first time in my life, the "magic" just wasn't there. I don't understand...could it be my 65 years? Could it be the enormous changes on campus (the new buildings, etc.) since my last visit, way back in 2003? Even winning my age-group (that's right, I did) in the 5K (which I didn't learn, or suspect, until hitting the website a week later) didn't seem to "do it". Oh, well...Father Time works in weird ways. And whilst, a'la Bo2's case, I don't have the same enthusiasm today as I did on every opening Saturday in my 20s, 30s, and 40s, say---I STILL want these next 7 hours to speed by and see some MICHIGAN FOOTBALL!!!! C'mon, BLUE---let's DO IT!!! Improve that Gator-hunting record to 4-0!!! | |

| Glad to see that I'm not alone. I guess it's just hard for every Michigan season-opener to compare to those when we were in school? Maybe we've become hardened by life? _________________ 'eggo denoted me a First ballot Hall of Famer! - sandyeggo_blue wrote:
