Good morning Vietnaaaammmmmm! The hang-over has set in, opening day has came and went so fast that it now seems like a blur, and sadly there will never be as many games televised in one days as there was yesterday. O well, we will take a look at Opening Day winners and losers later on "in sports".......

Lets get started now however with some news headlines. Ever since 1998 the province of Ontario has paid a hefty sum to ship their trash across the border to Michigan landfills. However Republican House Representative Dan Acciavatti has head enough, and wants Canada to build their own landfalls and take care of their own trash. Claiming that as soon as he gets federal approval, Canadians will no longer be allowed to ship and dump their trash on U.S. soil. The whole reason Ontario does not have their own landfill is because "environmentalists" in Canada don't want to see a landfill in their country, but it is perfectly acceptable to these "environmentalists" to have a landfill 300 miles across the border. I guess as long as you don't have to drive past the landfill then the landfill must not exist. Out of sight out of mind............

Looking for the key to longer life? Excercise routinely, healthy eating habits, regular doctor visits, and now going to church have all been linked to increasing the human life-span vs those who do not regularly attend church. A survey done by medical resident Daniel Hall found that those who attend church regularly live 1.8-3.1 years longer than those who do not regularly attend. I wonder if there will be a follow-up study to see how much longer those who give offering regularly live? Anyways you can't argue with this evidence, God loves those who attend church more than everyone else........besides its science, and you can't argue with science..........

In sports yesterday opening day proved to be a day of some good baseball, and some really bad baseball across the nation. Gold glovers Derek Lee, and Andruw Jones both made atrocious fielding errors, Tom Glavine looked like it was 1996 when he was 30 years old, David Ortiz hit a home run that still has not came down yet, Scott Rolen and A-Rod both hit grand slams, Zito, Sabathia, Millwood, Hernandez, Hurang, Hudson, and Carpenter all were aces who got shelled, Kenny Rogers was Detroit's oldest opening day starter and pitched a gem, Chris Shelton hit 2 home runs, and the reds showcased their obligatory awful baseball giving up 16 runs to the rival Cubs. Of course this marks the beginning of fantasy baseball as well, and thus leads to decreased work productivity across the nation, because one study showed that some fantasy owners spend up to 2-3 hours a day crunching numbers and adjusting lineups. Also there was a championship NCAA game yesterday, but does anyone really care this year?
