D-League

Good morning D League

Woke up to a nice morning, 68° and clear skies. Our high is expected to reach 82° and we have a 15% chance of rain. We could use a little rain down here. More than a little.

I trust all have a great day.

MAN! That is GORGEOUS!

We had a recurring garden guard each year when I was a kid. 6 inch black and yellow weaver that scared the snickers out of my sisters. Put up a web 3.5 feet by over 4ft and only fought hard with a praying mantis every other year or so. Been trying to find some of these beautiful garden spiders for our property, but haven't had much luck

Good morning! Alexa told me it was 39° this morning. I get the feeling sometimes that she doesn't even care.

Tee time @ 1109 today. Hope to equal yesterdays score, or better.

I don't remember Bob Baffert being in trouble before Rick Pitino came to town and started playing horseman. Hmmm...looks like ol Bob has got some Pitino patina on himself.

I have a friend that told me one time after he got married, that there was a girl he tried to date, but wouldn't give him the time of day, then after he got married, she started trying to hit on him. He ask her why wouldn't you go out with me before I got married, her answer was, before you were married you wouldn't keep your mouth shut, I figured after you were married you would!!!!! LOL!!!

An old billiards partner of mine doesn't wear his wedding ring anymore because he has more solicitations when he wears it. It's pretty sick how big of a difference it makes. I've seen it first hand to the point that I almost started to wear one when we were out.

I can honestly say I have never cheated on my wife. Over the years there has been a couple of women who may have flirted but I never returned the attention so it went nowhere. However, for the most part that has been limited and I feel it is because maybe I neither initiated it and didn't partake in it in return if they did.
 
  • Good Morning you D-Leagueanite Rapscallions and Lurkers.
  • Two cups of that Green Mountain Dark Magic.
  • Saw a 12 count flock of Turkey Vultures on Sunday evening. I've never seen that many at one smorgeous board before (one little squirrel.)
  • No White Tails to report.
  • One Shih Tsu sweetie pie.
  • Gasoline nearing $3 for 87.
  • Hiring price down to $9.50 at Bojangles. It was $15 not long ago.
  • #3 is supposed to be home for a month soon. He is a Buck Sgt.
  • No other news.
  • As you were.
  • Carry on.
I have my doubts about who actually hacked it. If the agencies are pushing a culprit on the news, I will always have doubts after the corruption and politics of the past years. Any agency these days could make the hack look like whomever they wanted it to look like.
How do you know that?

Just got off the phone with Germany. Called my "Ersatz Mutti" (substitute momma) and wished her a happy 83rd birthday. I've known her and her family for 38 years. She's well.
That reminds me, there is a German restaurant in Lawton called "Mutti's" I used to go too and have not been in a while. Looks like a weekend lunch date coming up this weekend.
 
Have a great afternoon, D League! No better afternoon then one spent after a productive (and for each of us that's different) morning! Whatever you got done, I hope you did it well!
Thank you. Today has been productive and I managed to get a lot of light yard work done. Some kind of critter is tearing up our flower beds. I have no idea what it is but they are digging like crazy every night. A .22 should take care of that if I can catch them.

I just finished off a plate of tamales and now I am headed to the pool with a big plastic jar of pork skin rinds to relax the rest of the afternoon. My two favorite snacks are boiled peanuts and pork skins. They are addictive

Armadillos?

In Jacksonville the little turds would do anything for a grub or something like that that they were digging for. I finally killed every damned one of them.

Best pork skins I ever had, were at a flea market in Paintsville. They would make them fresh for you. I would grab 4-5 bags before leaving every time I went.

Try some moth balls or moth crystals. A cheap try that may help...

That would be my guess. I have seen several of them around. Also we are in a dry season and that makes them worse. Having a lake doesn't help the situation.

This issue just started this week and it is getting out of hand now. I have a plan. Possum on the half shell anyone ?

Same here with the gas prices; right around 2.60; there's so much going on the world with the inflation (and maybe food shortages coming this summer), Jerusalem on fire, rumors of wars, etc.....much of the world seems clueless abou it. Interesting times for sure

What? Food shortages? Jerusalem on fire? Rumors of war? Ha Ha, this clueless bastard don't know nuttin bout nun o dat! Now that I've realized that common sense is detrimental to our society, I don't give two shits about nothing that happens outside my yard or my golf course.

Screw it all. I tried.

It is a warm 12.778°C with a high expected of 19.444°.

I mowed yesterday. This time of year I mow every three to four days just so I will not have such windrows of hay. I mow at 3.5" so that if rain delays me for a couple days I can go to 4" for a mowing and then drop down to 3.75" the next time and then back to 3.5". I gotter figured out! :cool:



It is a warm 55.0°F with a high expected of 67°.

Very detailed description Bert. Have you ever thought of writing lawn porn?
 
Got a text around 3 pm regarding costs for that 15-minute phone call I made to Germany this morning. T-Mobile billing me $51.00 for the call. Looks like I'll contact their customer service in a few.
So, your brain instructed your vocal cords to manipulate the air in such a way as to convey your message to an entity 5000 miles away at basically the speed of light, and you in return were able to hear her voice with the same clarity and timeliness. Yet you want to complain about the cost?

What a pampered society we've become. I would gladly pay twice your money for that call. I would use you money for other things as well. But for that call. Double.
 
This is the last year I pay for Amazon Prime service. $120/yr. for 3-5 day delivery on most items these days. The music and video package that comes with it isn't worth it either. Screw Amazon!
Gonna keep it. When I log into Amazon it thinks that I'm my wife. Bastard lets me order anything I want and charges it to the card. Not my card. THE card. It shows up on my porch and no one says a word about it.

I love Amazon almost as much as I enjoy my white privilege.

I agree with you. The Mrs disagrees....so she wins. When we first got Prime, which seems like not too many years ago, it was like $60 (maybe a little more). Prime has a lot of movies/shows but most are pretty bad and pretty old (and I prefer the old movies over the PC modern movies). What bothers me is that they don't send you an invoice....the yearly charge just shows up on your Amazon CC (may get an invoice if you don't have their card.)
But agree.....screw Amazon.

But in our household, the Mrs' SIL is pretty high up the corporate ladder out there in Seattle....so that's got a little bit to do with her thoughts to keep Prime. But politically...she doesn't like Amazon either.

Same here. Been sexually assaulted but never cheated.
