Morning D Leaguers

Read Jeremiah 44

The weather is normal for this time of year. We have 72° and the high will be 86°. We should have plenty of sunshine this morning and our regular chance of thunderstorms late this afternoon. We had a nice one last night.

Today the Stanley Cup winning Bolts will have their big boat parade. Always fun and it should draw a big crowd.

I am headed out of town tomorrow for about 2 weeks so I will spend today packing and preparing for that. I trust all are well.

Save travels Sawnee.

I can never get enough of this. A hot, strong cup of black coffee and pee-can pie and I am in hog heaven. I like it just like it is in this picture. I might have a piece today. Probably will

Good morning D-League. It's currently 79° and cloudy here in Eastern Kentucky. This afternoon will bring a chance of thunderstorms and a high of 81°.

Everyone stay safe on this Monday.

Pecan pie is up there with coconut cream and pumpkin pie as one of my favorites.

Yeah, I wouldn't throw any of them out of bed myself if I had a piece of those...

Good afternoon D, I had to take care of my grandson while his dad had to go to court today, nothing he did, being a police officer he has to do stuff on his day off.

Bert yawl still getting rain?

Tonight is pizza night with our friends, hope the rain holds off, we enjoy having our pizza out on the deck!!!!

I hope the D has a great rest of the day and prayers for the D especially the ones traveling!!!!!

One of the greatest sporting events ever. Broke the record by nearly 2 feet. Olympic week at the D.

I remember it well. Just wow. Looking at that tape, it's amazing to watch how long he floated at the end. Thanks.

I was surprised that that record lasted only 23 years. I thought it might take a century. Even so, it's only been surpassed one time - by 4 inches.

Coconut is the best in my book. My wife's favored is pecan pie. I can't stand pumpkin, but my wife loves it.

Anyone have any kind of update on FCC?

The last time he called me he had just got out of rehab and said he felt great. He didn't ask for anything and said he felt great. He thanked me for "all my help" as he put it and then said he had to go. I have't heard a thing since. I am not sure how long ago that was though!

Nope. It topped out at 3.63 inches. We have a good chance for more at 4 pm cdt.

FFC to on the wrong road. I tried, but in our conversations he got really hostile. God rest his soul.

Also tapemaster Congratulations on your anniversary. She must be a wonderful person. 😁

I always try and thank police officers or military for their service. I've circled around a gas station so I could park at a pump beside policemen as I filled up, just so I could speak to them in a friendly manner to show some of us appreciate their efforts. Thank him for me.

 

[tapemaster8]

Davtay do You know the cause of death? I am sure sorry that I didn't know about it living 20 minutes away from Gary.

Gentlemen, I have been a longtime lurker here. I met FCC back when he worked at Dollar General by his posts on here. I only talked to him a couple of times but, he was a good man. I am sorry to be the one who brings bad news, but he passed away back in May. Some of you may have known, but since no one else had mentioned, I didn't think to post it. I didn't know for a couple of weeks.

She is Bert! We ate at Cracker Barrel for lunch, that is all she thought necessary for our 52 years of marriage!

We are getting our 4:00 afternoon thunderstorm right now. It is shaking the house and pouring down. My wife loves these things.

All of my grandchildren live out of state, three in Kentucky. One of them is currently away on the Kentucky Governor Scholars Program and we just got a card from her today. They are assigned to one of three colleges. Bellarmine in Louisville, Centre in Danville and Morehead State. A couple of years ago her brother got Morehead and she was assigned to Bellarmine. Their young sister is aiming for Centre. LOL

She made us proud because very few young folks bother to write letters anymore. She built a telescope for astronomy class and is anxious to show it to us. God has been good to our family and given them the opportunity to excel. That is all we can ask in life. The opportunity and if we have that it is up to the individual to make the best of it. Good parenting usually assures that.

It is still pouring the rain in Dixie Land

What's surprising is that he never got anywhere close to that record again for the remainder of his competitive career.

Thank you for that Mr. Carbo!!!!! I am proud and scared for him! He had pictures on FB couple days ago of some officers that they met a little boy maybe 7, he told me later the little boy has been raised to hate cops!!!! The mother sure had some kind words for the officers!!!! THEY ARE NOT THANKED ENOUGH!!!!!!!

I have two family members, by marriage, who are police officers. One in Louisville and one in Columbus, Ohio. The one in Columbus has two children and they can not mention their daddy is a police officer because of the threat of harm to them or loss of life.

It is that bad in Columbus, Ohio. So yes, we should appreciate them and show them respect because their life is on the line every day they leave their home to go to work.

I was a military policeman, but 99% was in security. When you walk out the door, you never know what is in store for you. The haters should have to do a few ride alongs on patrol and go on a few calls.

 

[UK82]

Speaking of unbreakable records. Louisville's own Mary T. Meagher broke the world records in the 100 and 200 meter butterfly. A record that stood for 2 decades. Amazing because swimming records fall quicker than most.

No tapemaster, I do not. I just happened upon his obit a couple of weeks after it happened. Sorry.

When it comes to pumpkin pie, this is by far my favorite. My wife used to hate pumpkin pie until we discovered it.

Good morning from Anneta, KY. Currently 71°F, cloudy and humid. We caught a few showers last night. High today may reach 80°F.

Yesterday, we drove into Leitchfield for shopping and vehicle registration. Had no idea, but Kentucky vehicle registration system has been down for nearly a week. From there, we drove out to Clarkson and visited a gunsmith. Saw a few Amish young men at gun-shop and Walmart..

I'm heading down to Cookeville, TN so I can meet up with another cousin. Leaving here around 6 am. Plan on arriving around 8:30 am or so. Returning around 3 or 4 pm today.

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

Morning D, read Jeremiah 45, the whole chapter! Also Daniel 9

Got a kidney appointment in Owensboro this morning, just a follow-up to see how they are doing and to see if that stone is still in there!

I hope the D has a great day and Prayers for the D!!!

Thank you Austin, likewise. It should be a nice day to travel.

I've had 2 surgeries for stones. The first was emergency at 2 in the morning. They said I was almost totally blocked and it could've killed me. I try and drink plenty of water and I put a little lemonade in the water for taste, but I think the lemonade may help dissolve the stones. Anyhow the stone situation has been better since I started doing that. Good luck.

I drink lots of water too, maybe one glass of tea once every two months, it helps. We spent our anniversary in the hospital 3 years ago with my last stone, it finally moved away from my kidney just enough so they could bust it up. I am hoping that the one they said was still in my kidney is gone, we'll see today after the x-ray!!!!

During the first surgery, I had so many in me, he couldn't get them all out. The surgeon lodged 2 of them in so deep he couldn't get them out. I had an appt right before the china flu stuff started that they canceled and they have never called me back. I suppose I should call them.

Good morning D-League. It's currently 72° and overcast here in Eastern Kentucky. This afternoon will bring a chance of thunderstorms and a high of 82°.

Everyone stay safe out there today.

 

[berniecarbo]

We (my very small business) got a call yesterday evening from StyleCraft. They were among the first in the lighting industry to import from china. They sell to Costco, Macys, Home Depot,and Target among others. I'm guessing they are having trouble getting product. Screw them, I'm not even going to call them back. I don't have enough people to make for them even if I wanted to and I'm old enough that piddling with it is all I want these days anyhow.

 

[Bert Higginbotha]

Morning folks. It is a partly cloudy 74.8°F. We have already had a rain today. @cordmaker has really delivered this week. The picture below is of the rain event which started Saturday afternoon.

Yesterday I got the yard mowed and weekwhacked before the rain came back. Life is good.

• Good Afternoon, fellows.
• Lots of rainy days.
• Take care, All.
• Sick ones, get well.

 

[wildcatdonf]

Ben was the guy who tried the most to help him, as I remember. I contributed also, along with several others.

Gary was a good guy who got hooked.

I'm okay. Thanks for asking. I doubt that FCC is. Trying to commit suicide by vodka. His phone is not working.

 

[BBUK]

It could be worse, you could be having to buy a watermelon in Korea....

Oh, may this day end on a note that will leave you pleased. God Bless you all...
