D-League

Good morning D League. Back to reality after a pretty terrific weekend. My wife and I spent a night at the Willard Hotel as an anniversary getaway. And we did stuff in Washington we rarely do, even though we live a short drive away -- like a midnight walk down the tidal basin between the Washington, Jefferson and Lincoln Memorials, a leisurely tour of several of the Smithsonian Museums we hadn't seen in a while, and a couple really nice dinners at favorite hotels.

Grind ahead at work, but UK football this weekend. And my son starts back at Lexington so we're excited about that.

I hope everyone had a good weekend, and can ease into the week.
 
  • Good Morning, D-Leagueanites and Lurkers.
  • Cool front came through. 64-66º yesterday and today. Long sleeves.
  • Keurig Dark Magic is good. 2nd mug going. Spoiled to it.
  • This is Game Week at long last. I think gametime is noon

Good morning D! Still raining here in the Berg, but after tomorrow things are looking up. Prayers for all who are hurting

Mr. Ben safe travels to you and Mrs. B

It was a tough weekend for the Cordman, Saturday was a funeral service for a friend of ours and one of my mom's best friends in Princeton Ky.

Yesterday was for my friend and neighbor! It took it's toll on me emotionally, but in the end this was not really a funeral, the was a celebration of life for a great man!!!! I have been to a lot of funerals, but I have never been to one that was such a heart warming event. I am still at a loss for words to describe it! There was not a preacher that spoke, but the children spoke the words that no preacher could have ever spoken about this man!!! Some of his grandchildren from his family had something to say about their grandfather and after they spoke they had a song that they all sung together as a choir, absolutely beautiful!!!! As we made our way thru the line for our final goodbye I told one of his sons I missed my friend already, He told me that he's not gone because I still have 5 pieces of him thru them, his children!

I was told by one of my friends yesterday, she said Cord sometimes we are separated from each other (friends) because of our religion and it shouldn't be that way and she was right! GOD is coming some day and HE is going to take all his children that belong to him!!!

One day Mr. W my neighbor knocked on my door and said Cord I have something for you, so he dug around in his pockets and said, well I don't know what I did with it, I'll be right back. In a few minutes he was back and handed me a beautiful Buck folding pocket knife, I told his son a few days later what he had done and if they wanted it back I would return it, he told me no that his dad gave it to me and it was mime. I found out yesterday that he had given one knife to all his grandchildren and that I was considered one of the family!

So this morning prayers to all, My heart is hurting!

Have a great day D-Leaguers!!! GOD IS GREAT!

Don, you are a wonderful person.

You do not understand what we think of you.

(Of course that is good. It would go straight to your Paducah head.):stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:

I'm reminded of a quote from a movie I watched several episodes of last night'

"Wouldn't it be nice knowing what is going on in other people's minds?"

"If we knew what was going on in other people's minds, life would be unbearable." Spoken by a seemingly normal guy who at night is a murdering psychopath. It is a great series on Netflix called "The Fall."
 
Good Tuesday morning D League

Gulf coast weather is fair at 74 with a high of 85 this afternoon. Sun rising at 7:05 and thunder storms at 4:00 pm.

How about the news on the transfer! He may be the highest rated DB we have signed in many years. And we are not finished. He has a team mate that we may get.

So things are rolling and you have to be excited if you love football. And I do. Take care

Good morning! Haven't been up too long and so far all I know is that I'm hungry. Very hungry.

Supposed to have some thunderstorms today. Never heard any thunder yesterday but it rained off and on all day.

See ya later. I'm off to get some food and then it's to the workshop to get loud and dirty.
