How 'bout them baseball Cats!?!
Brought back memories and I found it...
Yeah that is Randy. I forgot about that until you posted... I was looking for another gif but this one seems to depict the outcome...
May an un-heavenly pigeon NOT leave his calling card on your head today. May God tell you no when you request or strive for things not in your best interest. God loves you. God Bless you all...

Yes, there are still good people in this country!!!
Hellloooooo everybody.
Currently my brand of choice...it's kind of hard to find, but I enjoy it.
Champagne of Beers...says so right on the box.
Put a window box up for the redhead yesterday. She was happy and content for 27 minutes before moving on to something else.
I may stimulate the economy this weekend, just need to figure out the best way.

I have ONE Yuengling ...................ONE, man did I mess up this day.....I was sure, I may try drinking two.....
Planning is important. I am a drunk so I plan!
Hello D League
Hope all is well.
Mowed and trimmed the yard yesterday for the first time, meaning spring is here.
I'm ok with Askew transferring as long as we are getting a better PG, if not then I'm concerned. Pipe dream: Jackson returns. Not likely but I can dream right?
Hope everyone had a blessed Easter!
Carry on everyone and behave! or don't its a free country (for now)

Mickey Mantle once said the breakfast of champions was a six pack and a steak sandwich.
Been to that Greek village in TS. Had forgotten till you mentioned.
Yep...golf is a Love/Hate sport!

But today for lunch I had two Hofbrauhaus Dunkel draft at the Newport restaurant, outside, sunny, 75F.
I always liked him for some reason...now I know.
You're kidding right?

Ya, & he was dead at 57 too from liver failure. Too much steak I guess.
I love me some Yuengling. I have to say that I prefer the Light over the Regular now. But I won't turn down a Regular if someone hands it to me. I was introduced to this brew when I lived in MD.
Drink what you like!Hellloooooo everybody.

Late in his life he said if he'd known he was going to live that long, he'd of taken better care of himself. If memory serves, his dad died in his early 40's as did other men in his family. In his mind he "knew" his life would be short.
I thought Mickey Mantle passed away at age 63 or so?
God Help Us! PLEASE!🙏🙏🙏This is what you get when you elect a fool for President. Thank you America, you really did it this time.
Now that UK FB & BB are over for now...I'll probably land back here on the D-L. Sorry, but it is what it is until the Mother Ship comes and gets me off this Rock! 👽👽👽
Damn...I need to start hanging out with Warrior Cat.....as long as he's buying!
Morning Legionnaires!
My go to beers in order if available:
I am actually having a Binding right now. Warsteiner's were not available at the shoppette last time. I thought I had a couple left. Binding is a good substitute.Damn...I need to start hanging out with Warrior Cat.....as long as he's buying!
Hello D! I haven't had a chance to check in lately. My folks have had a tough week healthwise so I've been busy. We were able to nail down our 2nd Pfizer Covid shot today so that's a positive. Looking forward to the Masters tomorrow.
Hello league. Hope everyone is doing good. It’s still weird posting here under this username. I hated that I had to change names. Hope y’all have had a good day

I've been bound.... Uh, binded?
Another night, another HR, plus a 2B, plus threw a shutout. OK, they weren't so hot.
I’ve never had a chance to watch Carr play. I’ve read good things about him on here.
I plan on watching it this weekend as well. Looks like they have some good early pairings.
Any of you baseball fans read Ball Four by Jim Bouton? There was a big stink over it when it came out in the late 60's. Bouton and his co author became baseball outcasts. Bouton put out some of baseball's seamier side when those kinds of things were hidden from the public. I thought of it because of the Mantle posts. He talked about Mantle's (and others) use of "greenies", his drinking, and being a leader of the "beaver patrol". Various Yankees spent time on hotel roof tops with binoculars looking into hotel rooms for women in various degrees of undress.
BTW Jim Brosnan wrote The Long Season later which also made him an outcast.

I know what you're saying and I'm not likely to care what anyone thinks as long as I don't have think that way. My opinions, requiring evidence, are normally not up for negotiation.
I love completive sport as much as anyone can and find it rewarding entertainment. Lies simply insult my intelligence and that's not entertaining so I act as you would expect . . . With specific intent not to subsidize and encourage increased societal predation.

Good morning from ATX. Currently 53°F and partly cloudy with patchy fog. Today's high may hit 91°F in the Capital City. Del Rio high projected at 100°F. We'll get to normal seasonal temps next week.
COVID shots: Heard Pfizer shot becoming harder to find. My workplace offering Moderna shots next week. I'd rather take Pfizer. Plan on searching around today for more info.
Wishing happiness and health for all our fellow D-League members.

What a day yesterday. I need an empanada. (I will expound at another time.)
Oh, I do pray that each of you have a personal relationship with God. God will never leave or forsake you. I know. I know beyond a shadow of a doubt that God loves you, he loves me, he keeps me singing.. God Bless You all...

Good morning D League,
Trust all are doing well on this the 8th day of April, 2021. Our weather will be the same today as yesterday. Plenty of sunshine and blue skies.
We had a nice day trip to Anclote Island yesterday to celebrate our 54th wedding anniversary. The Captain of the boat in the picture behind me had had a few bourbon on the rocks too many and ran his vessel into a sand bar. Not good.
Lesson learned. Don't drink if you don't know the depth of the water below you.

Good morning D-League. Cruising along, after my 5-mile walk and shower and back to my "home office."
Had trouble sleeping last night because I got some really bad news on a friend - Canadian war correspondent Matthew Fisher, a real solid guy, is not expected to live many more days because of a failing liver. No hope for a transplant. He's a guy in his mid-60s who's probably seen more of the world than any human I know, and who had some remarkable experiences in places like Rwanda, and in 2003 with a USMC unit that got ambushed by Iraqi armor and had to call an airstrike in on itself...I met him in Kuwait City in March, 1991 and we spent time together in places ranging from Kosovo to Haiti.
Put him on your prayers and, or good wishes list.

Morning folks. It is a rainy 59.7°F; so far .21 inches.
I got the yard mowed and I put out some grass seed in what was my garden patch. I waited too long as it should have been done in January, but that is what old folks do.
Best of luck to Matthew Fisher, hopefully he will not be in a lot of pain.
As I near 75 years old you realize that it will happen to you in the not too distant future. I only prayer is that it is painless.

Thanks Bert. When contemporaries start to pass, which is where I am in my mid-60s, you start to understand what that means. As with many of you, it makes me all the more grateful for my family. Matthew used to visit me at my Maryland home during his trips through Washington. He got to know my kids. And he confessed that was his regret - he never had a family, for various reasons, much of it having to do with working overseas for so many years.
And it also makes me try to, as Warren Zevon said, "enjoy every sandwich," appreciate the moments as they happen.
Hopefully none of them are rolling barrels at people.
Thank you for the kind words. Ginger and Mary Ann were asking for a drink the last I saw of them. LOL
54 years is a bunch, no doubt. Here is a 54 year old picture of us taken at Fort Knox a week after I brought her to Radcliffe and we moved into our apartment off base. Lots of water under that old bridge but she has aged well. Really well
