More coffee.........................................................

21.4° F and still going down. It may be below 20 by the time the sun comes up. Yesterday we got some snow but it did not stick.
I am now scared of Ole Miss. It is like a trap game. I hope the boy come out mad as hell and takes it out on Ole Miss and especially Florida.
Thanks 55 that was hilarious!!!!!
Morning. Slight absence of heat here at 14 degrees.
Cord, Nash for me too. Me and Dad listening to the game. Especially Coach Rupp. He was a dandy. FCC.
I was at UK when Cotton played. I saw all of his home games in Memorial Coliseum. I still say he was the smoothest player I have seen in a UK uniform and his shot was a thing of beauty. Made All American every year. And there were some great college players in those days like Jerry Lucas of Ohio State.Y31 was reading your post about how long you have been watching or listening to the CATS, with that D-League who was the first Wildcat that you can remember listening to them playing? Mine was Cotton Nash listening to him play on the radio with my dad.
You might consider turning your heat on.
On? I had no idea. I was counting on global warming. FCC.
Yes, on FCC. You can only have the the kids walking around inside the house dressed in 14 layers of clothes for so long.

This cold weather reminded me of what my grandfather told me one time when I was young, my lips were chapped really bad and mom was putting some chap stick on them, he said cordmaker you know what's best for them chapped lips don't you? I told him chap stick, he said no, he told me cow Schiff, it won't heal them but it will make you not lick them anymore!!!! Needless to say mom was not happy with him!!!!
Cotton was my first UK hero. Then came Dampier and Riley. I was sad when my father informed me that Nash didn't play for UK any longer. I didn't have much understanding of college at that age. I took the losses harder back then as well.
I don't know how many of you know any thing about Muhlenberg Co. But we had a feller here named Mr. Corky Withrow that played basketball and baseball! I received a book for Christmas called Uncorked Kentucky sports legend. For those that like to read this is a very good book about his life! I don't like reading but when I started reading it I couldn't stop. I guess being from here in Muhlenberg, knowing all about the Golden Tide (Central City High school) then his battles with King Kelly was just really interesting!!! Also I guess while I was reading it they brought up people that I knew and I also knew his parents and had installed some carpet for them. Any way it is just a great sports book to read.
If you like to read it's a good one!I know about him. Central City used to be a powerhouse in Ky HS basketball. Shame all these consolidations gobble up these schools with rich traditions.
Dr. Johnson asks me the same thing.Just got back from a doctor's office checkup. One of the questions she asked was do I ever have thoughts about harming myself. I said no. My wife piped up, "But I do."
Just this ......... I truly hate losing to Tennessee........ That is all!!!!!!!!!

Yea they switched free throw shooters!!!!!!I still have nightmares over The Ernie and Bernie Show. Nothing sucks like an orange.
The associated Press sure are ACC nut-danglers this time of year.3 ACC teams in top 4 and we come in #7. Play out the final games and then the SEC Tournament. Seed us as a 2, I'm satisfied.
