How many people can say they went to the same elementary school, and high school, as the Heisman Trophy winner?

I hate cold fronts. It seems to be a requirement that if I have a fishing trip planned, and especially if I have a tournament scheduled, that a front rolls through, leaving us with a drop in temperature, high and clear skies and wind, usually cold wind.

Early spring fishing in Ohio can be frustrating. It can be cold and there can be a lot of high and muddy water.

It’s hard to believe that March is almost gone. There were even still flakes of snow in the air yesterday.

February is a dreary month. Even if it is not cold and snowy, it seems like it is at least cloudy and damp most of the time.
