Me and My Friends
Jon, Rob, Josh and I sat courtside (right at half court) to watch UConn blast Quinnipiac by 50.  Do I not get the best seats to games???

Mark, Jon and I took a day trip to Beantown in what turned out to be better than we ever could expect.   Here is a picture of Mark and I with the great Red Auerback at Quincy Market.  "What's the Freedom Trail?"  Aren't you all glad I eveasdrop?   "We're going to the game!!!!!!!"   "Paul Revere took a right turn here!!!"   "Ben Souza...Jerusalem, Israel...Shalom"   "Jon Russo...Lancaster, California"

Here I am with my friends Amy, Robyn, and Andy in Jerusalem, Israel while on the greatest trip ever!!!   The 3 outcasts, rebels or whatever else we were called are the ones on the left side of the pic!!!  Nice Uni-leg!!!  You 3 are always the last ones!!!  LOL!!!  To view the other 500 pictures and videos of the Holy Land that we took, just click on the link below.

Here I am with some of my Connecticut friends enjoying a day at 6 Flags New England.  Is that a guy or a girl?  Get that sparkler out of my car!!!  Amber, is that the guy's bathroom???
Ricky, Me, Chad, and TJ at Paramount Kings Island on opening day to ride the new Tomb Raider ride.  "Is this a roller coaster?"  Man, was that the dumbest question we ever asked!!!  That was the biggest disappointment and to think  that we froze in line waiting for it!  We waited a year for that dumb ride.

Ricky and I riding the Son of Beast for the 10th straight time in the rain.   (Yes, rain feels like hail when you are going 80 mph!!!)  My heart hurts, you sit on the left side next time!!!  Hey, let's steal those girl's seats!!!  Where did Nathaniel go?  Was his limit 3 times?  Thumbs UP!!!  Don't sit by Carissa, you will go deaf!!!  Want to ride drop zone?  No, I choose life!!!  Why do 16 year olds sit on the ground in the middle of Coney Mall and cry?  And it was even the last day of school.  I almost got decapitated on the Beastie.  Is that a wheelchair?  Lets take it and cut all the lines.  Bro Ben, you have to go to the bathroom again???  Ok Ricky, you can drive the Old Fashion Cars!    I will never ride Top Gun or watch the 7th Portal again!!!  Karaoke anyone?  Never ride the Viking Ship during a thunderstorm!  How many rides have you broke down on?  Watch Ricky's expression on Face Off!  That ring toss game is the biggest scam since they started the lotto!!! (Hint:  the bigger the prize the smaller your chances are at winning)  Never leave your purse at the station while you ride the racer.  Lastly, BRING BACK THE PT!!!!!!  What were they thinking taking out the best ride in the park?!? 

My friends Diane and Rach posing hamming it up for the camera moments before getting waved at by Barry Larkin during  Red/Mets game.    How does Larking respond?  Hitting the first grand slam of his career in the bottom  half of the inning.

More pics from the game!  Why didn't anyone take a pic of my Griffey "Big swing and a miss" poster I made?  "It's the top of the 4th inning and there is one out...Mike Piazza steps to the plate...and onto the field runs the Naked Cowboy!!!  "I have never seen a man dressed like that before!!!"  LOL!!!  Anthony Poor has a new hero!!!  

"The 3 Stooges"
My great buds, Lee and Travis pose with me at our Sports Banquet as I am very high on medications that night from my surgery.  It was really the medications fault for all the things I said while I was behind the podium.  But you got to admit, it was funny!!!  There are lots of funny things you can say about teams that have no wins!!!  But remember, I may have lost every JV game but I was undefeated (2-0) when I coached the varsity!!!  A nice 104 points on the board vs. Calvary and a beautiful come back from behind win in the tournament after Darrell got tossed!  Anyone looking for a coach?

To all of the students and teachers at CBA, I didn't forget about you.  Here are a few pics that I was able to find.  Click on the thumbnails to view a larger image.
Anthony and Chad leading my  Jr Church in Deep and Wide Chinese style.  Next week:  "Afro Joe" vs. Anthony!!!
Anthony before the Match:
Anthony after the Match: 
(Anthony was lucky that Bsmooth showed up to saved the day after he lost in about 4 seconds)
Hint:  If you have no idea who Afro Joe is, scroll up, I think you can figure it out)
My roommate Luke and myself at our college graduation at Fairhaven Baptist College in 1998.   Anyone want to buy a pop for 40 cents?  "Ben, did you set off that bomb behind the dorm?"  Nothing like a good debate in Baptist...I mean Protestant History class!!!    (You got to call it like it is)  When your friends are campused,   you can always go to the Buckhorn.  Tuesday is Southlake Mall night!  Since it is college work day, lets go work at the mall!  Never beat up other students.  They may come to your church as a Missionary in a few years.  I would like to personally thank Mr. Grandquist for 2 years of Biology.  That 45 minute power nap in the morning did wonders for me in the rest of my classes!!!
