Half Armenian, Full Eagle
My goddaughter’s Christening was held at the “St Vartanantz Armenian Church” in Chelmsford, MA on January 17th, 2009.
My mother received this yesterday from the funeral home in memory of my father.
With time running out on making deals with Mark Teixeira, the Red Sox traveled to the Bellagio Hotel in Las Vegas to try and come to an agreement for 2009. The Angels have just offered the top offensive first baseman an 8 year, at least $160 million contract and the Red Sox don’t want to let him go. He would be an excellent addition to the team and Theo will do everything he can to “get his man”….again. Not only will he help with defense, but he is a highly trained offensive weapon that will fill the empty 3-4 slot that opened up when Manny left. I mean, Lowell is amazing and so is Youk, but I think that they could rewrite the lineup and make a solid 7-8 players.
Teixeira, 28, has hit at least 30 homers and driven in at least 105 runs in each of the past five seasons. After being acquired from the Braves before the trading deadline this past season, Teixeira hit .358 with 13 homers and 43 RBIs in 54 games with the Angels.
In my opinion, the only way that the Sox will have a chance at winning the division and the World Series is with Mark Teixeira in the lineup. I know the Sox can do it without him, but I think it will be so much easier with him.
When you hear the name OJ Simpson, what do you think of? Some people would say a great football player…up until June 12, 1994 when he was accused of killing his ex-wife Nicole Brown Simpson and her friend Ronald Goldman. From that point on, he was only considered by most, including me, a murderer. So he becomes involved in the “trial of the century” which ended in October 1995 where he was found not guilty. He is then brought up on civil charges where he was found guilty and has to pay $33.5 million in damages.
After the trial, he was hated by most Americans and lost “a lot” of his money. Let’s jump forward about 10 years. Let’s recap! OJ Simpson gets away with 2 counts of murder and then he thinks everything will be fine when he and a group of men rob someone at gun point over some sports memorabilia. Really OJ? You didn’t think to yourself that you might get caught.
Today he was sentenced to 33 years in prison with eligibility for parole in 9 years. First of all, he should not be allowed parole and be in jail for the rest of his life. I was talking to a friend of mine and I told him: “All his life, he was told don’t drop the football. Now it’s going to be don’t drop the soap.”
Have fun OJ!!!
