Haircuts and Mike's Important Sports Opinions

Yesterday I got what is possibly the shortest haircut I've had in my life. The barber (in Big Rapids) cut it, but after I wanted it shorter and he thinned it out it was remarkable. I didn't really realize it until I got home. It's not quite a "Greg haircut" but it's short enough that I can't even part it. Plus, my cowlick is pretty obvious in front. Fortunately, Lisa said she liked it.

Other than that, we're mired in the worst sports time of the year - post Superbowl, pre March Madness. The NBA, the NHL, and college basketball are all in full swing, but in the NBA and NHL way too many teams make the playoffs, so I don't have any desire to watch anything until the postseason, and college basketball is all about the gigantic tournament - playing a slew of games just to see who gets into the tournament isn't terribly interesting either. Calvin-Hope basketball is always worth paying attention to, I suppose. Spring training is starting up, too, but the regular baseball season is what's more interesting. I didn't watch the Daytona 500, but I do wish that I'd seen the end. Anyway, here's looking forward to "Selection Sunday" and the chaos of a 65-team single elimination basketball tournament.

So do we get to see a picture? I'm testing to see if I can now post comments, since I had to register in order to see my sister's blog, so this might work now. When is (was) spring break? Best wishes during the long stretches of second semester!
