That would just make me sick, sick, sick.

Do you have a White Album? If you do check the number.
Finished installing the outrigging for my kayak. It detaches from the base so I can store it easier in the back of my truck and the legs rotate up or back in case I need more room to paddle. Will try it out on the water in the next few days.
Unfortunately I was not into the Beatles and rock so I don't. But my brother was and I am going to ask him. At one time he had almost all of them.
I was pretty much Bluegrass, old school country and gospel. That kept me busy. I must have more than 50 Johnny Cash including his first album unopened. I bought it in 1957 and a few days later received one as a gift and never opened it.
This one.
Oh and on a more important note. I have never seen Lonesome Dove. I guess my viewing for this next week is set.
Can you purchase one of these Mermaids..........we have a big pool and no one gets into it.........sure would put my pool to good use.......hell.....I ain't choosy.......the one pictured would do........I had to change my setting from dark to light because something happened that made it difficult to read topic headings. Dark blue against black is not too smart. I prefer the dark screen but but but
Some good news. Weeki Wachee Mermaids are back in the swim. It was shut down due to COVID but is in full operation now. The river was not shut down so you could continue to kayak but the mermaid show was. But Happy Days Are Here Again
Homeless all over Austin. I encounter at least 4-6 every morning within a mile of our house during my walks. One crazy dude, always screaming at himself, constantly asking for money. Mumbles something about 72 bullets. Surprised he survived our 9°F temperatures last month. Homeless camps fill many underpasses on US 183/Research. Many residents sick of the city policies. At least two fires those idiots started staying warm/cooking damaged roads and bridges.
I bet. That would be nice. Here is a roster of the current performers. Scroll down and you might find one to suit your fancy.

Aired the tires up on the mower and curiosity got the best of me so I had to see if it would start. It did. Since it was already running I went ahead and mowed the grass. Oh well, was going to have to start soon anyway.
My high school friend married Derrell Stewart.
Same here. My Dad had more gospel albums that you could shake a stick at. Would go to the 'all night gospel singings' when they were in town. The gospel singing TV show someone mentioed used to be on one of the TV stations in Knoxville. When we would go to Gatlinburg he would look more forward to watching that than vacationing in the mountains.
It is good. Make sure you see it in sequence.
Changed the oil in one of mine and, as you, thought I'd see if if would start. No problem. Only mowed half the front yard....was exhausted. Is it because I'm getting older or the fact I've sat on butt during the Ohio winter?
Probably a combo. Yard is big, so I need to finish the front early next week if the weather cooperates....and then it's on to the back which is even bigger.
Nova, 8 turnovers in 8 minutes. Now I'm no expert but that is not a winning formula for the latter half of a game.
So Baylor to the Elite Eight. I think I’ll pop in my Blu Ray disc of the last Elite Eight game Baylor played (courtesy of Ritchie Curtis) - a Classic Kentucky best down in 2013.
I’ll only have to watch the first half - it was over by then. Maybe Michael Kidd Gilchrist’s best game as a Cat.

You should try making sausage on a device called the Big Green Egg. Ever heard of it? Nah, you probably haven't.
I had an aquaintance in England that I kept in contact with......a couple of months after he passed away his wife sent me his Beatles library on CD's......their whole library........a lot of cuts I had never heard........I need to get those out and play them...........
Very happy about Baylor to Elite-8. Pulling for Oral Roberts vs Hogs.

The Spanish sailors thought a manatee was actually a mermaid. That happens when you sail on the water most of your life.
Big Green Eggs and ham? I've ate em, Sam I am.
You are the Egg man.
I am the walrus. coocookachoo!
Hello D league friends!
Went on an adventure today with the family. Ended up in Lexington and went to the Lexington Cemetery to see the cherry blossoms and ate at Joe Bolognas.
Back home.
Tired.
Carry on!

Well, heck, sad ORU lost. Great effort.
Next up: Gonzaga va Creighton. My aunt, Agnes, passed away a couple years ago in Reno, NV after moving there in 2018 from Omaha area in 2017. She donated her body to Creighton School of Medicine.
Go Bluejays!
Edit: game playing tomorrow. Go Houston Cougars!

Interesting to watch Houston effectively attack this 1-3-1 zone. Kelvin Sampson obviously drilled his team all week on getting the ball to the post, with a guy there capable of making fast, good decisions.
I remember how baffled Indiana under Tom Crean was as a #1 seed in this same round.

Sunday Morning Funny Papers. As a kid daddy would grab the sports page, mama the crossword puzzles and I got down on the floor with the funny papers.
Good Morning D
Trust all had a good night's rest after some entertaining basketball. I actually think I may enjoy watching games more with UK uninvited, less pressure and worry.
Well we are in store from some very nice weather and just look at that moon outside.
Our current temperature is 63° and the high will be 80°. Winds are out of SE at 2 mph and the old humidity is a pleasant 91%. The Visibility is 10 miles and Moon Phase: Full Moon, And this morning's moon looks something like this.
Caladesi Island off of Honeymoon Island. Time for another cup of coffee

It's a rainy morning in the Buckeye State. Temp at about 50, which is to be the high, and the rain will end here in another hour or two.
Got a few things done yesterday. Grass is a dark, dark green....so I guess the fertilizer/pre-emergence is doing it's job.
Fired up the grill last night for the first time this Spring. Did a little BBQ and thought I'd watch a little college b'ball for the first time since @UF. Had about 3 'woke' commercials in a row (one by the NCAA)...and suddenly... the outdoor TV skipped channels to an episode of The Rifleman. Must have a small varmit that got in it over the Winter.
Everyone have a safe, happy, healthy Palm Sunday.

It is a partly sunny 54.1°F here. We had thunder storms for a good portion of the night and got 1.31 inches of rain. No wind with the rain so that is good but it was nearly continuous thunder for a good portion of the night.
I had a good talk with Ymmot yesterday afternoon. He ain't missing us at all!
Enjoy you Sunday.

Good morning from ATX. Currently 62°F, overcast and wind gusts hitting 20 MPH. Today's high could reach 75°F. Meh.
Enjoyed the games yesterday. Happy Bears won. I work with a couple Baylor grads. Probably catch a few more games later after chores/errands.
Wishing happiness and health for all our fellow D-League members.

Good morning D-League. Back from a long walk in the dreary rain that followed two absolutely beautiful days.
I watched more basketball yesterday than I think I have all year. It was interesting to me -- some exciting games and good players. BUt I didn't see a team I thought was clearly better that the last two pre-Covid Kentucky teams -- Herro, Johnson, PJ Washington, or Maxey, Quickley, Richards. Maybe we see what we want to see, but I'm comfortable with that observation.
What it means to me is that this year's collapse is the anomaly, not the inevitable result of a long decline. But I don't expect everyone will see it that way.
Off to a birthday weekend lunch with my wife in the historic town of Frederick, Maryland, best known in history as the setting for the Civl War era poem "Barbara Frietchie" by John Greenleaf Whittier: "Shoot if you must this old gray head, but spare my country's flag, she said."
Something tells me they aren't still teaching that one in American schools...
There was an old woman by that name who lived in the town when Confederate troops passed through, and she was known for her patriotism, but the details of the poem are likely not historically accurate...

Just got a text from my son in N'ville (actually Southern 'burb). Screenshot of storms at 1:30a.m. and said that yesterday N'ville got 7 inches of rain and where he's at got 12. That's hard to believe. Don't know if he's getting that from radio/TV/weather app/etc. Since he's living temporarily in a hotel/suite till he finds a permanent residence he doesn't have his weather station set up, so I know it's not from that.
But that is a LOT of rain.
I slept in GOOD this morning. Does me no good though because I'm in the middle of an RA flare up and no amount of sleep is enough.
I watched a lot of basketball yesterday as well and something has me ticked off. The way players are allowed to palm the ball now gets on my nerves. How many times have we seen our players called for a 'walk' when they start their dribble off a pass? What does that matter if you let guys palm the ball on a crossover or take 4 steps in the lane?
The rules of basketball are fairly simple and referees are paid to enforce them. They fail. I want them to sit at a table after the game and answer questions just like the losing coach has to. Show them clips of calls they made and ask them WHY? If they had to answer to their incompetence, or bias, every game then they might start to do better.

Morning D. Salutations from the shanty.
Another day, another set of chores. Oh well such is life. Will catch some of the games today. The Ark game yesterday was a good one, squeeked another one out.
More coffee......................................................................................
