GP, in addition, having confidence is key but you have to have confidence due to your core. You must be grounded. It is sad seeing what I once thought was a moral high ground turn into placation. How does that happen? In this instance I think what was once leadership turned into feeding the ego. It is a fine line but a line you cannot cross and stay true. I will stay general in what I stated but somewhere, Cal has changed and morphed into a caricature of himself. That never works out. Had he just stayed the course and not tried to take it up another notch UK may not be going through what UK is going through... It is a sad sad spectacle...
Good post. I’ll leave it at that for now. Been reading too much on the Rafters. Some crazy stuff over there. My brain is scrambled.
 
Thank you sir as always. I'll check this out. Could be solution I'm looking for.

Good morning from ATX. Currently 43°F, partly cloudy, humid and calm. Today's high may come in at 74°F. Cold front on the way and should arrive by Christmas Eve. Sounds good. At least we're not boiling hot with the air conditioner blasting 24/7.

Happily, the powers that be allowed 7-2 Army to replace UT and play in the Liberty Bowl. Long overdue.

Two more working days and then 4 days off. Yay!

Wishing all our fellow D-League members happiness and health.

Morning Legionnaires!

Bengals win! Bengals win! Small solace for the year at hand. Not a Steelers fan at all. Outside of the 49er's, they are my most hated team. Am taking daughter shopping for her to buy presents for her mother, g-mother, and uncle. Going to take a side trip to an office down the hall from where I used to work. Lady there used to rag on me about my Bengals. Heh, heh, heh, pay back today. Will wear Bengals gear today for extra ummpphh.

Well, everyone stay safe today and gear up for the holidays and not the recent woller days.

Christ is the reason that God made the season.
 
Good morning D, what a view of the CHRISTMAS STAR or Jupiter and Saturn! We had about 10 or 12 show up last night, then had subs sammmmmmmishes afterwards, great night with friends!!!

Mrs. M would like to thank whoever it was for posting the meme about 8675309, says everything else is ok, but just can't get the image of the 3 out of her mind!!!!!![roll][roll]

Got to make some more glass ornaments today for my grandyounnnnings, they all want different colors and I am going to put their initials on each one.

I hope the D, has a great day and prayers for the D!!!

Good Tuesday Morning

It is a little cool outside with 44° and some fog in the area. We will peak out at 67° with a 5% chance of rain. Here is a great photo of the Great Conjunction with Saturn and Jupiter. You can see Saturn's rings and 4 of Jupiter's moons.

Trust all have a nice day

That's how we saw it last night!
 
I'm running of ideas for keeping our dog from getting under our deck. He pulled down the lattice yesterday. Wall blocks will work but they look awful, Uncle Eddie remedy. I might have to completely seal it off with wood. Love my little Houdini but damn what a pain he's become.
Try spraying something like hot pepper juice or a mixture of vinegar and citrus juice on it.

Looks like I missed out on a good conversation. I wasted to much time on rafters tonight lol
Gives me an idea.

Remind me to create a meme stating, "This is your brain" <insert normal brain photo> and "This is your brain after reading Rupp's Rafters for an hour" <insert photo of scrambled eggs>.
 
The one thing he can not have or allow is for the inmates to run the insane isylum. The boss runs the place. What he says goes whether it is good, bad, or indifferent. If some want to leave then fine. Don‘t let the door hit you in the a** on the way out. That is main lesson these young ones need to learn quickly.

This will work it’s way out internally.
I hope and pray that you are correct.

The USPS is giving us a Sunday School lesson on patience. After all it is 79 miles and a good chunk of that is interstate type roads!

The last time I posted on RR I got a one day ban because I was not nice. I rarely post there on any subject. Some on that board are basically deranged people.
 
Good morning D-League. Picking up on the theme of mail deliveries, my wife has been ridiculing me for about five years for dealing with the chaos of actual stores to Christmas shop instead of doing it all sitting at a computer drinking a cup of coffee.

Well, my Christmas shopping is wrapped and under the tree, and hers is spread out in warehouses and branch depots all over the east coast, waiting for employees out sick to return to work.

Here's a tune that'll put a spring in your step. The Lilliburlero has its origins among the Scots-Irish in Northern Ireland to whom many of us trace our heritage. It was used by British Commandos in WW2 as their marching song. Back in the late 80s and 90s when I was traveling a lot overseas, the BBC World Service used it as their signature theme at the top of every hour. I'd listen to it on a little shortwave radio I carried.

Today I check the mail and we had a massive dump. So much junk mail it was hard getting the rest of the mail out of the box.

If the Post Office really wanted to get out of debt they could raise the rates for junk mail. But I will not hold my breath waiting on that to happen. They just raise the cost of a stamp for you and I.

Bengals snapped an 11-game losing streak to the Steelers dating back to 2015. I believe the all-time record for this rivalry is 67-36, Steelers.
 
Cal brought this on himself and may end up a mighty lonely man. I never saw a coach alienate a fan base like he has. And for what? Why would he even entertain doing such a thing. What was he thinking?

I truly believe that many Northeasterners despise and look down on Southerners. And his fan base unfortunately is mostly Southerners.

I spent 32 years on the Railroad being looked down upon because I was from the South and working for a Southern Corporation. It did not matter that we were making a bunch of money, we were still stupid.

My wife was invited to a seminar in Indiana to remove her southern accent. It really got ugly. Sherry told that bitch off in about three sentences. The poor thing ended up being scared of my sweetheart, and I was proud of my wife.

I got really good at sharpening my southern accent and rubbing it in especially when I was in New York and the stock analysts from all the trading houses were asking me about business models for my company and seeking information that only I knew. Plus my boss, John Snow was a Southern guy also.

Screw their arrogance. We all put our britches on the same damn way.

Oh, just remembering some good TV. I don't watch television any longer. I guess MASH was the last I watched much or The Golden Girls...

May God's greatness overshadow any problems you have and may God's glory rain down to allow you to bask in peace and goodwill toward men...

God Bless you...

We never missed a single show. To a Southern boy watching these loud mouth Yankees arguing in their little New York apartment was the best entertainment on earth. I had no idea people lived like that.

It was one of the best shows in TV history
