Ware needs to go up strong.
We have had a shorter one for a few years now pictured below. Put it up today. It ain't the Griswalds but it will do. Two of the 4 mutts in the second picture. The monster pictured below is 8 months and weighed in this morning at 82lbs.Just went out and got our Christmas Tree at the home depot. It was expensive for a 7-and-change foot Frasier Fir - about $70 - but not nearly as bad as some of the rumors I was hearing of big shortages and skyrocketing prices.
My wife begged me to get a smaller tree this year - no kids at home, a fairly modest Christmas planned. I usually go the Clark Griswold route, as can be confirmed by permanent scars in our ceiling where a succession of mammoth trees gouged their signatures.
So, I listened to her, got a compact tree that falls a full 2-3 inches below our eight foot ceiling...And I'm already regretting it. I miss the monsters of Christmases past...
When I was a kid growing up, my dad and I would walk up on a ridge behind town where the woods were wild and scraggly enough that it didn't seem anyone was paying too much attention, whoever happened to own the land, and cut down a cedar to drag back home as a Christmas Tree. Dang, those things were ugly, but Christmas was just as sensational so I guess it doesn't matter that much about the tree.
Wife said the same thing.I do not like those yellow shoes Allen and Toppin are wearing. They stand out and I find them distracting. If anyone has access, please ask them to change at the half. TIA
I think Cal made them wear those shoes so he could keep track of them easier.Wife said the same thing.
Are they all smiling.........Me too. Everyone seems to play hard. I love the uptempo fast paste offence.
Yes, and all had a nice walk about them as far as I could tell. No lazy steppers.Are they all smiling.........
SNL on a Friday night? What's next? Human sacrifice, dogs and cats living together, mass hysteria?SNL Christmas Special just started on NBC if anyone's interested. Some really good skits from the past. Back when the show was actually funny.
Nope, they are finding out that coddling the criminals only leads to more criminal behavior. Serves them right though. Only problem is that innocent people have to suffer in the process too.Good morning! Stayed up til 0300 and slept til 1030. Now I'll be good to stay up tonight for post game festivities.
47-42 Cats and to make it interesting...they have the ball with seconds left and throw the hail Mary pass and we intercept it in the end zone to cap off the win. Pretty exciting. Can't wait.
Mom would have been 88 today. The very special Thanksgivings were always the ones that fell on her birthday. Anyway, Mom would always make turkey salad for sandwiches with the meat she would tediously pick off the bones. I did that yesterday. Along with the leftovers yesterday, I managed to eat 2 sandwiches also. i might not be a "foodIE" but I'm damn sure a "foodER".
Basketball game was awesome last night because I don't remember any rink a dink fouls being called. Quite the opposite really. I saw what would normally be a blatant foul go unwhistled several times. Was quite surprised but definitely pleased.
I have bitched and complained for years about the spin moves and crossover dribbles and taking 3 steps down the lane in the name of "Eurostep". My contention was, how can you guard someone who is allowed to carry the ball"? How did they fix it? They just made all that crap legal.
Just like we're seeing in real life. A certain segment of our society cannot follow the rules that are in place for the betterment of ALL society, so they are just changing the rules to coddle the renegades.
This is not a good long range plan.
Soldier on and keep your weapons and your guns dry out there!
Yes they do. It's turning into a bizzarro world.Nope, they are finding out that coddling the criminals only leads to more criminal behavior. Serves them right though. Only problem is that innocent people have to suffer in the process too.
I think Cincinnati is in regardless. Notre Dame would be in the discussion but Cincy beat them early on. Cincy still has to play #19 Houston (11-1) for the conference title. That would probably seal the deal.No, this is not the typical Bama team. I still think they'll win this game though. Does Michigan winning knock Cincy out of contention?
There's not many 1-loss teams left either. Oklahoma and Oklahoma State are two of the few remaining and they play each other today. Conference championship games results could really turn things upside down.Alabama may not be there after today. If Cincy happens to win we'll have a non P5 school in there every year.
Sure would have been nice to have a 1 loss Kentucky up in there.There's not many 1-loss teams left either. Oklahoma and Oklahoma State are two of the few remaining and they play each other today. Conference championship games results could really turn things upside down.
For awhile it sure seemed like a possibility.Sure would have been nice to have a 1 loss Kentucky up in there.
