Message from Metzie: Blood test time again. I had another good check up. Just had some small swollen lymph nodes in the back of my neck and the front of my neck. None in the armpit area, or chest area. White Blood cell count was 25.6(Normal 3.3-10.5) which is down from 27.3 last time. Out of the 25.6 19.8(Normal 1.2-3.0) is lymphocytes which is down from 21.8. % of lymphocytes is down to 77.3 (normal is 22.4-43.6) which is the lowest percentage since I have been tested going back to December 99. I did tell Dr. Early I had a cough almost the whole winter so she sent me for a chest X-Ray. We both don't expect it to be anything, but she wants to make sure. Thanks to everyone for their support and it is time for softball season to begin. Play Ball! Metzie Message from "Fast" Mike Arico: I am going for back surgery. I was diagnosed as having a tethered spinal cord and have been dealing with chronic back pain. I had my pre-admission testing done this week and am scheduled for surgery next Wed., 4/21. While the surgery will mostly be exploratory, the doctors are going to be aggressive and attempt to correct the problem. I will be in the hospital for 5 days with a 5 to 11 week recovery period. I will let you know how I make out. Take care, "Fast" Mike Our thoughts and prayers are with you Mike! Kid Kosher e-store is now open!

Steve Dolan, Head Coach Message from Alumnus Semi Celebrity: Greetings all, Now that the 2003 holiday season is behind us and the Kid Kosher hype has died down, I finally had time to update/change the website a bit. I revamped the look a bit and made more sections with an extensive past appearances section under "Resume". Hopefully I'll be able to put up a guest book for people to leave comments/feedback on. New material is currently being written and hopefully recording won't be far behind as well as an appropriate web domain. Thanks for your support during this ride. Regards, Glenn P.S. I'm hoping to be invited back onto NJ 101.5 on the Carton and Rossi Show when I have new material recorded. An email to CartonAndRossi@nj1015.com telling them you'd like to hear more from Kid Kosher in the future may be helpful, but please don't mention that you know me. http://www.kidkosher.net MIA List: Dan Avondoglio Susan Baka Lorelei Boggs Tim Brennan Linda Burriesci Carrington Colleen Casey Mike Cavallo Stormin' Norman Coyle Frank Dariano Joe DeLuise Chris Fagan Brian Falkowski Frank Ferrara Coach Fitz Pat Gallagher Tony Genovese Michelle Gindreaux Mark Grey Kim Hageman Sylvester Harriet Jon Harris Hanna Herman Dave Hoch Tracey Hosler Sandy Humphrey Judy Hunt Willie Jackson Chris Kalwinsky Tim Kamisky Trisha Kenney Jim Kingsley Gail Kupcha Herb Lorenz Mark Macauley Jennifer Maczka Patsy Marino Marlon Matthews Don Matousch (FOUND) Mike McGourty Brendan McKeon AnnMarie McLaughlin Tom Mozloom Michelle Nichol Steve Ondrejack Sue (Piekarz) Rodrigez John Richardson Janice Reilly Marc Rossi Alan Skilowitz Coach Smitty (in progress of being contacted, he currently lives in Brazil, South America) Steve Strange Karen Tangora Ken Topolewski (in progress of being contacted) Karen Vance Eddie Vizzola Melissa Wenczel Gurick (FOUND) Greg "Groundhog" Weinert Dave Ytreboe Virginia Zaleski (in progress of being contacted) Tall, Slow Andy from '86 XC |
