Trick-or-Treaters,
   Just a quick entry here.  Hope everyone is fired up for the weekend.  Just finished the last overnight shift and am off this weekend, which is a good deal.  On the way home this morning did see a $2.14 a gallon for gas and heard of a $2.06 within the metro.  I would love before the election to pay $1 and change, especially in a large city.

   And next Weds night, NIU vs #16 Ball State on ESPN2.  Be watching.

   Hey a shoutout to the Mendota Trojan football squad who plays Chicago Leo (Mengler!) in IHSA football playoffs tomorrow.

   Oh yeah, and Beth thanks for the random politics and HCG talk yesterday.  Haha!

   November tomorrow.  One sixth of 2008 left.  Even if it is only one sixth of fun as the year thus far, it will be amazing.  What a year!

   Today's BOOyah forecast from NWS Chicago for you northern Illinoisers:





So from the 'Sota ... to the 'Dota ... to the Flo'da ... have an mmmBOOyah Halloween!
MTF

P.S.  Scruff ---  in my skimpies right now.
