Dan...And part of my hand. Yep, I'm a real pro! Jim decided that texting with his daughter was more interestin g than watching the Reds lose again (I myself would never text while sitting with other people...Never. Ever. And I'd never text someone who was sitting right next to me either, that would be silly). What we all ventured down for - Steven Curtis Chapman LIVE! Jumbotrons make for good concert viewing. Oooh.
