Morning all! Haven't posted much but been trying to keep up.
Son left yesterday morning. Really wanted to stay till the 4th...but business obligations call.
Was a good Father's Day surprise.
Like most of you....except maybe warrior-cat.....it's really been hot here in the Buckeye State. Heat index was bumping up at the 100 mark yesterday.

I ain’t going there. Round peg, square hole, no way. I’ve got a good woman at home, who thinks i do no wrong, but lord, sometimes, she just ain’t always around.. Hank Jr. supports this post.

Naw Sir, I am as thankful a husband as there is found ANYWHERE, My Darling is my life here on earth. It just caught me funny...
Same here as you guys. Got one who never gets mad....and if she does she doesn't say anything to make matters worse. The most honest, generous woman I've ever seen. For Father's Day she gave me a Pit Boss. I've got a nice smoker and a top of the line Weber propane, so I didn't need it but she thought I would enjoy it since I like to grill. Plus, I tell her every year when she does something for me at Father's Day that I'm not the Father to her girls....she always says 'yeah, but you do a lot for them plus the g'daughter'.
Total opposite of my first wife......that's a good thing.

Y'all have a good day.
 
Good morning D-League. It's currently 72° and sunny here in Eastern Kentucky. This afternoon will bring sunny skies and a high of 93°.

Everyone stay safe out there today.

Good Tuesday Morning

A typical June weather day is in store. We have 71° and Winds are from the East at 5 mph, We have a 60% chance of rain this afternoon as temperatures rise to 85° and winds pick up a little. I see all of these 100° temperatures nationwide and realize I have never experienced 100° in Florida. I suppose the water keeps the temperature down.

Prayers to Cord and a safe flight for his friend. I read Jeremiah 28, I see California has banned all state funded travel to Florida. which I see as a good thing. The less Californians around here the better. The reason given is California does not like the way LQGTBUSA#1 is handled around here. So they banned us.

I trust all have a nice day. The magnolias are plentiful this year.

I sure wish California would ban a few more places.... I see too many California license plates around this area, of course I see too many DC and Virginia license plates too.
 


Morning Legionnaires!

More rain last night and more expected throughout the day and through the rest of the week. High's in the high 70's. Very unusual for this time of year here. No fishing for sure most of this week. Will try on Sat or Sun. It is coming down hard right now. Don't have a rain gauge anymore. Had one and the hail storm we got year before last blasted it and got another one and the hail storm last year blasted it. Decided not to buy another and just start building an ARK with supported covering and hope for the best.🌈;) Brightside? If this keeps going I may be able to just step out of the door and cast away for my fish or just be a cast away.

I'm coming little buddy!

California has an inflated ego and think they are of value to the rest of us. Nothing could be further from the truth. America would be light years better off without them.
 
Good morning D-League. Heading out for a hike before the heat. It's scorching in the east, but pretty typical for late June. I was glad to see the glimpse of Oscar T. on RR yesterday. Something about that kid is likeable to me, and I have a feeling he's going to have a year that will at times have us remembering PPat, and at times Julius Randle. I'm not saying he's as good as either, but will have moments worthy of both.

I'll catch up with you guys later. Have a good day.
I really like Oscar too. Great attitude. I'm curious to see if Jalen Duren reclassifies. Not getting my hopes up but the addition of that kid would be enormous. Hell of a front court. The back court is already loaded especially if Mintz returns.

Dang, you lucky dogs! How do we get them to stay out of Kentucky? Gonna have to come up with something
 
California has an inflated ego and think they are of value to the rest of us. Nothing could be further from the truth. America would be light years better off without them.
Since Obama nuked their agricultural industry over an "endangered" fish, do they contribute anything of value that can't be gotten elsewhere? The movies coming out of there suck. All they seem do to is worship thieving, cheating, murder, and abuse of citizens. Haven't had a California wine in forever. No real idea if they still do any good work in computer engineering.....

Maybe we could find that "my island might tip over" guy and get him to tilt Cali till the refuse slides into the ocean?

Duren could put this bunch on a different level.

But the front court seems already promising to me, perhaps deceptively so.

Along with Oscar:
* There are reports that Toppin, who really seemed to be coming into his own at the end of the year, is nearly 6'10'' and has radically improved his shot.
* If you could put Keion Brooks back on the trajectory he was on at the end of his freshman year -- before he was hurt -- everyone would be excited about his potential.
* Collins strikes me as a guy who can be a real disruptor right from the beginning -- put him in the game, pressure guards out on the interior, and if anyone gets beat, he's there to erase the mistake.
* Hopkins looked poised and skilled in the Iverson game.
* And Ware is at a minimum a big, athletic body.

I'm not sure how many teams have a front court that deep and talented. There probably are some but I can't think of them.
 
Have a great morning and stellar afternoon, D-L!

Gonna see if I can see some things while I'm doing the things, and avoiding the things on the way to everything, cause some things need finishing and other things need starting, before it's too late to get everything done.

It's mild in the wild right now, but will be hotter than jalapenos soon enough. Stay cool and safe and hope to see you back here later
 
Good afternoon all. Been quite a while since I’ve been here, but unfortunately, it’s been unavoidable. Dealing with family health issues and trying to farm in the spring has me about worn out, but I’ve caught up somewhat, and just browsed this last page. Good to see familiar names still here, along with a few different ones. I’ll just say quickly that mashed taters and peas are great, providing you are out of green peas. And who doesn’t love gizzards? They give gravel a purpose other than eating up your tires. Thinking differently is unique, especially if you’re not normal. Y’all take care.😋
Good to see you back Backer cutter. I was close to your area two weeks ago. You should have felt uncomfortable as I was the guy driving!
So glad to see that name pop up again, Backer cutter. A hard working man if there ever was one and valuable member of the D League. Please post often.
Same here.
Glad to see you back Cutter.
Me too.

Since there's no other place around the place, I reckon this must be the place I reckon...

Btw, gonna see if I can get a youngin with a full glass in their watch (fitbit) hand to tell me what time it is today...
I just "spilt" my coffee..

I have a fitbit, a hand-me-down from my daughter that I bought for my son and she stole, bought him another one, and then gave it to me as a present. I use it to monitor my sleep. I like that function. The steps I guess... It will do... I got used to it. I also add the food I eat calories to keep myself honest. It is a pretty good tracker for caloric intake.
 
On the first day, God created the dog and said, "Sit all day by the door of
your house and bark at anyone who comes in or walks past. For this, I will
give you a life span of twenty years."
The dog said, "That's a long time to be barking. How about only ten years
and I'll give you back the other ten?"
And God saw it was good.

On the second day, God created the monkey and said, "Entertain people, do
tricks, and make them laugh. For this, I'll give you a twenty-year life
span."
The monkey said, "Monkey tricks for twenty years? That's a pretty long time
to perform. How about I give you back ten like the dog did?"
And God, again saw it was good.

On the third day, God created the cow and said, "You must go into the field
with the farmer all day long and suffer under the sun, have calves and give
milk to support the farmer's family. For this, I will give you a life span
of sixty years."
The cow said, "That's kind of a tough life you want me to live for sixty
years. How about twenty and I'll give back the other forty?"
And God agreed it was good.

On the fourth day, God created humans and said, "Eat, sleep, play, marry
and enjoy your life. For this, I'll give you twenty years."
But the human said, "Only twenty years? Could you possibly give me my
twenty, the forty the cow gave back, the ten the monkey gave back, and the
ten the dog gave back; that makes eighty, okay?"

"Okay," said God, "You asked for it."

So that is why for our first twenty years, we eat, sleep, play and enjoy
ourselves. For the next forty years, we slave in the sun to support our
family. For the next ten years, we do monkey tricks to entertain thegrandchildren. And for the last ten years, we sit on the front porch and
bark at everyone.

Life has now been explained to you. There is no need to thank me for this
valuable information. I'm doing it as a public service.


If you are looking for me, I will be on the front porch.

SC, I also read 29, failed to post it to

A fast moving lightning storm drove me out of the pool so I came to my office and read 29. I am on track for tomorrow.

93 degrees. It is hot.
We are currently at 72° and it appears our high today will be 81° that we had at noon. At present we have a very cool thunderstorm going through the yard with strong winds and a cool, very cool breeze. It is pleasant and refreshing.

I love my rain because in an hour at most it will be gone and the skies will clear. We should have another brilliant sunset tonight. Most of the sky remained blue while the black clouds passed through producing the rain showers.
 
2000 years old Pantheon dome in Rome is most remarkable structure I've seen. Unbelievable they could create such a large dome that long ago & it's still perfect and gorgeous inside.

Others that top my list are the Coliseum (Thought I was in Cincy's old Riverfront Stadium.); Pont de Gard bridge/aqueduct in France, cave paintings around Lascaux (The painters used irregularities in the cave walls to create 3D images of some animals. Unbelievable for 10K years ago.), the Roman hot baths at Bath, England (FIL's army unit sleep around the sides of them waiting for Normandy Invasion.).
The Octagon Lantern Tower in Ely Cathedral is the most amazing structure I have ever seen........it is huge and just to see it hanging up there...........and to think the first version was made completely out of stone makes it even more improbable.......I put some of the mineral water from the Roman bath on my shoulder.......didn't do anything but get me the stink eye from a worker.......
