[Bert Higginbotha]

It is cloudy and 60.4°F here. I got the yard mowed, trimmed and edged yesterday. That wore my old butt out. Sherry got the little garden tilled for the second time.

I look forward to the game tonight.

Next week is Doctor week. I see my heart doc Monday and my prostate doc Wednesday. I hold my breath ever six months until I get an okay.

BernieFan

A teacher asked her class how many of them were Bernie Sanders fans.

Not really knowing what a Bernie Sanders fan is, but wanting to be liked by the teacher,
all the kids raised their hands except for Little LARRY.

The teacher asked Little LARRY why he has decided to be different...again.

Little LARRY said, 'Because I'm not a Bernie Sanders fan.'

The teacher asked, 'Why aren't you a Bernie Sanders fan?'

LARRY said, 'Because I'm a Conservative.'

The teacher asked him why he's a Conservative.

Little LARRY answered, 'Well, my Mom's a Conservative and my Dad's a
Conservative, so I'm a Conservative.'

Annoyed by this answer, the teacher asked, 'If your Mom was a Moron and
your Dad was an idiot, what would that make you?'

Little LARRY replied, 'A Bernie Sanders fan.'

That's good Bert right there.

Well I guess Tyler could come back by rule. As a fan I wish he would stay 4. If I was a NBA scout with clout, I would take him in a heart beat. He's going to be a dandy somewhere. He can get his jumper off at any time cause he jumps so high during it. Quite honestly, I don't think he realizes that to it's fullest. He will have some better screeners in the NBA. Or Coach Cal will use that. Here we go, Cats. FCC.

[FutureCityCats]

I think we have about 26 or so generational poverty fighters now in the NBA , not to mention the G league and of course over seas. I read on the internet that their total salaries is somewhere around 1.4 Billion. That's, uh, well, alot. I'll stop. Shout out to catfansc and railroad. FCC.

I don't think that there was ever a question that he wouldn't test the water. They all want to go to try outs and see what the scouts say about their game. If he gets feedback that he goes in the top 20, I think he's gone, but there are more people declaring each day. The difference between #17 and # 25 is a whisker and depending on who does what at the try outs, plus who else declares, along with the Europeans, he could stay right outside the lottery, or he could drop to 25 or so. If he would get down to that 24-28 range, he may return.

 

[Bert Higginbotha]

Damn.

Don, that is closer to my view. DAMN!

 

[Bert Higginbotha]

Hope everything goes well for you.

thanks Ben.

If it does not I just get out of the mess earlier!

Driving down the road this afternoon I passed a Prison work gang that was working on the road. My thoughts went back to childhood. When I was a boy Florida had chain gangs that did all of our roads, picked up trash and you name it, they did it. It kept our taxes low. One day I did something to displease my mother and she told daddy what I did. Shortly there after I was riding down the road with daddy and we passed a chain gang. It was hot and those boys were working in hot tar on the highway. It was brutal. Daddy looked at me and pointed at the prisoners and said, "son if you don't straighten up you are going to be on that chain gang." I cried out daddy no, oh no daddy no, please don't put me on that chain gang. Daddy got the message across like none other.

 

[railroadkat_1]

Damn.

 

[OldEvilleCat]

Afternoon D.
Fully expected Herro to go through the process. Hope he comes back but I think he's gonna get the answer's he's looking for and won't return. Just Quickley will be back...as if. I like IQ, we got s'more experience in the back court for next year.
Dad turned 81 today...
Behave this weekend everybody....when I say "behave", I mean just don't end up in jail.

Yep, figured he would.

 

[catfaninsc]

Thanks. Found $3.00 (12 quarters) stacked up next to a coin slot at the car wash. Found rest on the ground at same location.

The D League BBQ fund continues to grow.

This morning's find. Life is good. Happy Friday.

You ever find any unusual coins Austin? I found a late 19th Century $10 Gold Piece under my grandparent's porch years ago that looked like it had been minted the day before. Beautiful coin. Of course, somewhere along the way it vanished from my possession -- hell, maybe you found that!

At my usual place, aside from miscellaneous US change, I've found:

(1) oz silver coin ($12)
(1) Euro coin (~$1.15)
(1) French Franc dated 1976. Essentially worthless now since French banks stopped exchanging in 2014
(1) 10-Peso coin
(2) 1-peso coins
(1) Canadian 5 cent coin
(1) Cayman Islands 5 cent coin
(1) India 25 Paise coin
(1) Ukraine 10 Kopiyok coin

These finds are all from a car wash in a predominately Hispanic part of Austin.

Fairly interesting, indeed.

Quite a haul. Does make you wonder who all is coming into Texas and from where.

No doubt. I've also noticed that I come across more coins and bills between Feb-May every year. People seem less careful during that time-frame. My largest bill discoveries historically occur in April and May. I haven't made any large bill finds ($5+) yet this year. I started tracking my discoveries beginning June 26, 2016 A total is posted here every year on the anniversary.

Good morning D League

I trust where ever you may be you have a great day. We have 69 degrees with a high forecast at 87 mid afternoon. I like it. The girl on the radio said the best time to be outside is form 8 am to 2 pm. Plenty of sunshine for those who partake.

I enjoyed the Blue White game last evening. The offense looked much better and it was nice to see points going on the board from the passing game and running game. I think Stoops has the program on a very solid foundation. Beat Tennessee

If you are not feeling up to par, our prayers are with you.

Morning D. Greetings from the shanty.



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

 

[Bert Higginbotha]

It is a cool 51.8°F here. That is 8° cooler than yesterday morning. It is overcast and we got a little rain yesterday but some sunshine late in the afternoon. You can hear the grass grow.

Railroad has not been on. Wonder if he is too sick to post.

If he had an NBA game this year, then the NBA is a joke. There were at least 50 guys playing college ball this past year who are better than him. He played for Kentucky and got the exposure. Enjoy your G league experience son but be sure to bone up on your Croation lingo.

That's good Bert right there.

The NBA isn't what it used to be.

Thanks for caring Bert. The answer is Ole RRC has made a 180* turn-around since last Saturday. I follow up with my MD Monday at noon. I have to re-incorporate a more vigorous Cardio work out for my well being.

We have been busy having a major landscaping project, Laying new Sod, etc., etc.. No my mind tells me to do all I can but we hired a professional. C.O.P.D. is a terrible thing to have. None the less I didn't think I was going to make IT home last Saturday.

GO BIG BLUE...………….BBN!!!

I'm drunk and I'm proud of it! Started yesterday at 1500 at the golf course. My car is still there as a matter of fact. I should be able to drive it home tomorrow but I'm not making any promises I can't keep. Drink of the day? Moonshine. Fine shine! Flavored with peach and it is an excellent breakfast drink.

I've got so much to say, but I have no idea how to say it. Cheers!

I have copd. It's a bitch. I also have rheumatoid arthritis. I would double up on the RA to get rid of the copd. I can handle pain, but not getting enough air is like slowly drowning.

Today is the 1 year anniversary of my mother's passing. She was ate up with the alzheimers for 10 years. Now that right there is something that I will NOT tolerate. If I catch it there will be enough time for me to have the sense to turn myself off before I lose all touch with reality.

I'm drunk as a fart right now but I can still spell fairly well and I have a reasonable sense of what's going on around me. Alzheimers is not that forgiving. eff it!
