Help Nick Vogt Meet Tayor Swift!

As many of you found out from this webpage, a few months back, my good friend, Nick Vogt, an officer in the Army Rangers was severely wounded after stepping on a roadside bomb. His recovery to this point has been nothing short of miraculous. 

The other day, his mom told him he had a special visitor and he immediately perked up and said "Taylor Swift?!" but it ended up being his sister (which is awesome too!). However, I know it'd be a real treat for Nick to meet Taylor Swift, so please sign this online petition going around - and spread it to your friends and family! Thanks so much!

I dare say it's almost as ugly as Miami's new uniforms:

Some Big Changes Coming to the Astros?

Some changes will be welcomed by fans - including lowering many ticket prices - and some may not - including a name change in the future.
