natty!

Sing a rousing chorus!(1)

You don’t have to play to feel that way! (2)

The online home for the best Michigan sports coverage – Mgoblog.com – posts two Muppet videos after any very key Michigan victory: the troupe doing two songs that have been staples of the Michigan Marching Band repertoire since before the first post-war National Championship in 1947. And if that third Natty isn’t cause for Muppets, what could be?  So, here they are:

“Hawaiian War Chant” (3)

And, as Carl Grapentine would say, “You can’t have one without the other”: (4)

I retired from the Rheumatology division of Michigan Medicine end of June '19 after 36 years there. Upon hitting Ann Arbor for the second time (I went to school here) it took me almost 8 months to meet Kathy, 17 months to buy her a house (on Harbal, where we still live), and 37 months to marry her. Kids never came, but we've been blessed with a crowd of colleagues, friends, neighbors and family that continues to grow. Lots of them are going to show up in this log eventually. Stay tuned.
