Go Cats!

I regret not being able to go up your way Bert. I was traveling as a guest and on a very tight schedule. It was a quick trip to celebrate my cousins birthday that was a surprise and put on by her manager and publicist. She has the same manager/agent as Barbara Mandrell and Brenda Lee. We had a great tour behind the scenes and had to get on back to Florida. I would love to come up and will try my best to make it happen.
This is my cousin on my daddy's side of the family.![]()
And another one at work.

I'm taking the old man to therapy that day but Tuesday or Thursday next week works for me.You're a good dude! One of the best in my opinion. I would like to treat you to lunch for dropping that news on me. Monday the 13th looks good on my calendar.
Hey pal, it's 2021! No one cares about 1980's cholesterol scares any longer. What we're concerned with is the heating source. Was it green?

Welcome to 78, it is not that bad. It sure beats the alternative. And I love the way you are eating. Let the young folks eat the tufoo and bean sprouts. We will enjoy our fatback and soup beans. This is my wife's favorite meal also. If you grow up in the hills of Eastern Kentucky you ate good and that is one reason I picked a Kentucky girl.My 78th birthday is coming up in a few weeks, the average lifespan for a man. So, I said, what do I have to lose? I'm going to chance it.
So I made myself a pot of soup (pinto) beans with a big chunk of fatback thrown in. I then made a pan of fried potatoes in lard. Turnip greens on the side. Pan of buttermilk cornbread in my iron skillet. Cold glass of buttermilk to wash it down.
*I had to make this myself. My wife, not being a southern girl, thinks this meal is disgusting. But I had this a couple of times a week growing up and would choose it over a steak.
Good Wednesday Morning D League
Waiting for the sun to come up. We should have a typical day with a current temperature of 73° and a high expected at 84°. We have a 63% chance of rain in the early evening.. I may get in some yard work this morning and relax in the pool tis afternoon.
When I travel I like to find off the beaten path places to eat and a found a dandy on highway 100 outside of Nashville, the Loveless Cafe. What a place. I enjoyed a plate of gizzards, fried pork chops with my eggs and grits and the biscuits were to die for. Especially with their peach preserves. Check out the link and if you are in the area I highly recommend a stop.
Enjoy your day and stay safe

Exactly what I thought!Vancouver sure knows how to celebrate coronaviruses. Ahead of their time really
Be careful on the Cumberland at night, lots of dead snags and big rocks lurking. Not much of a fisherman, especially on the river, but trout are the main attraction year round. Some good walleye as well. Try some spinners and spoons. Good luck.Finally got my boat to the lake yesterday to run out the gas that was over 2 yrs old.........it had stabilizer in it but.......the motor fired up at the touch of the key.........seen several people having fuel problems at the dock.....we ran for about an hour and stopped and put new gas with stabilizer in it.......I only took 5 gals since the damn thing seems to run virtually on air..........got it hooked up and heading to Burkesville for a little overnight fishing on the Cumberland River......my buddy has a nice place with a ramp to the river next to his property........I have never fished this river and don't know what is in season but I am going to beat the water to death with a few thousand dollars worth of bass lures..........I ain't against a little snag fishing if that is what it takes........

Yes it is really good and they have a great menu. They say they sell 5,000 biscuits a day. I can believe it and they give you all you want to eat. I think they have been around since 1950My mom and sister live ten or fifteen minutes away. Been there a few times. It is good and you get plenty to eat.

Good morning from ATX. Currently 71°F, clear and calm. Today's high forecast for around 100°F. Just a few more weeks of this.
I read that and said "national ampersand day". then, I wondered what that word was and if I had made it up. I checked and it is the word. Small world, huh?Happy Hump Day! We're at mid-week.
Wishing happiness and health for all our fellow D-League members.

Always interesting to read your posts. Have you ever considered writing as a vocation?Good morning D-League. It’s a beautiful one in the east as the sun comes up. Cool, a gentle breeze and some majestic clouds picking up the first light of the day.
I’m excited about the commitment of Shaedon Sharpe and the other kids who are leaning Kentucky’s way. I’d like to think with this new staff and Cal looking to restore his reputation that the Cats are headed into another run like the Wall-to-Davis-to-Towns days. We’ll see.
Two more days at my home desk and then a brief break at the beach. We took the kids there for 20 straight summers so lots of good times for us to remember, and a few restaurants and bars I’m looking forward to visiting.
Hope you all are having a good week.

Come to think of it, I only recall seeing one this year.Me and Mrs. M were discussing an art that I would like to teach my grandsons, it is the fine art of flying a June Bug!!! The problem is that I have not seen any of them in a while!!!! Don't want to miss out on teaching them this!!!!
Stink bugs have replaced June bugs unfortunately.Come to think of it, I only recall seeing one this year.
I screwed it up earlier, but I can make it on Thursday at or after 1:00. Pick a place on your side of town.Next year I'm only growing the darker tomatoes. Black Krim, Cherokee Purple, etc.. Going for quality over quantity. Well, I'll probably still plant a few Jet Stars or Better Boys for salsa and sauces.
Speaking of The Virginian. I used to live in Paducah. They had a telethon on television every year to raise money for charity. The guy who played Trampas was supposed to be a guest. He went to a strip club, got drunk and never showed up for the show.Been streaming episodes of The Virginian on IMDB the last few days. Like all free streaming apps they have a bunch of short commercials (thank goodness not 5-8 minutes like the networks). One they show over and over is Southern New Hampshire U. (Is that a real college or just online? Don't know...don't care). But the one commercial shows the graduation and the president (I guess) is talking and one of the things he say (I'll paraphrase) is .....
the world in which we live equally distributes ability, but not opportunity equally.
Total idiot and what is wrong with education of all levels.
If he was right....how come I wasn't as good as Michael Jordan or Tiger Woods?
Doug McClure. Pretty sure he was an alcoholic that contributed to his early death. May not have direct cause of, but seems I read where it was part of it.Speaking of The Virginian.
