The PA State Police hosted a fundraiser for the family of slain trooper Joe Pokorny last weekend. They had many events, but my mom and dad, along with Bill and I, attended the Troopers vs. Pittsburgh Steelers basketball game.
The Steelers that played in the game were James Harrison, Lee Mays, Ricardo Colclough, and ex-Steelers Louis Lipps and Ed Nelson. We were all a little non-plussed about the lineup until Ben Roethlisberger ran out and joined the team right before The Star-Spangled Banner was sung.
The game was fun, if not a tad embarassing for the Troopers. It’s probably safe to say that everyone on the Steelers side of the ball had picked up a basketball at one point in their life. At one point, Big Ben hit six three-pointers in a row. It was amazing.
We had a good time at the game and it was nice to see the Troopers and the Steelers raising money for the Pokorny family.
Final score– Troopers: 30 Steelers: 119

C’mon man do you even know what non-plussed means? Don’t be bringin’ that crap up in here.
I was going to say how excited I was to see the use of non-plussed. I love it!
It’s already been broughten! I totally went there.
So you don’t know what it means. I had to look it up- oh I’ve heard it before. it always sounds like it means unimpressed but it means puzzled or bewildered. Sneaky.
So were you bewildered? Huh? were you? huh? Oh yeah you were just puzzled. you were just A-quiver with confusion?
Burn.
Dude, you need to log some more hours in the sack. Sleep deprived baby time has made you delirious.
Nah, I was just yankin’ yer chain. Trying to badger you a little.
We miss you guys.
Between that and the Boo Radley email I thought you went off the deep end!
