Tigers Roar in '84
Yes, the Tigers are no longer the Tiggers and they are once again in the World Series. The last time they went was the season after I left Michigan and headed down to Houston. Alan Trammell, Lou Whitaker, Jack Morris, Lance Parrish, etc, etc. Great year. I honestly cannot name a lot of the current Tigers, but am very happy to see them have such a successful year. So, for those of you out there who could care less between STL and Detroit, cheer on the Tigers...they will appreciate your support.
So, I have promised to reveal some HUGE news on this blog and now is the time. The word is out...the Knight family is going to be heading to Tulsa!!! Yes, I am going to be heading back to work for EquaTerra doing the consulting gig and, thus, we are going to move back to T Town so Kat can be closer to her family and have that support while I am out of town. The money is fantastic, the job is much more strategic than executional/administrative and Tulsa is a hell of a lot more affordable. We are both looking forward to it, but getting the house ready to sell and trying to coordinate the move is a bit stressful. There is one thing that is making that process a little more enjoyable...we were selected by the HGTV show Designed to Sell as a house they are going to revamp for their next episode!!!! Not sure if many of my blog aids are big fans of DTS, but it is a very popular HGTV show where they come in and redo 3 rooms in a house and completely increase the value of your home for sale. They have already filmed two days and will start the work next Tuesday. Two more filming days while working and then they will film the Open House on November 5. We are hoping for offers at the Open House, but the current market tells us that we will probably have to wait until January for a sale to occur. Which is cool, but the sooner the better.
Big news, big news!! We are very excited and invite anyone who wants to come out to Cali to do it soon and help us work on the other rooms of the house to get it sale ready. :-)
OK. I hope everyone is doing well...I will try to be more regular on this site in the future. I know my last couple posts have been boring, but I will get back in the groove.
Peace out to all my homeys!!

hey jay,
I was thinking how grandma k would have reacted to the Tigers in the World Series again. Mom thought the same thing, since we all know grandma was probably THE BIGGEST tigers fan ever.

Yes, Grandma Knight would have been sitting in her green upholstered dining room chair, leaning forward intently listening to the radio and periodically shouting "wowee" and "oh for pete's sake" and "come on!". I always marveled that she was probably a bigger fan than I was! I thought of her often during the playoffs...
