D-League

I am stuck in 2020. For some reason I have been signing checks dated the year 2020. I had 3 mailed back to me saying they expired. ?????
I got busted so many times at nuclear plants when I would work on my birthday. I would get my paperwork back from document control with a nasty note that said it was NOT 1960!

In my defense, date wise, I got to win a bet with a guy about the last and next time it would be 12:34 on 5/6/78. Only bet $20 but it could have been more if I was that guy. He forgot about AM. That exact time occurred twice that day.
 
@BBUK , if it wouldn't be too much trouble, I do it for all the videos I post here, but could you please post those as YouTube videos rather than facebook?

I don't use facebook and will never willingly click on a facebook link. Thanks bud.

I understand and I will try though I do these on the spur of the moment. I will just cut them back though as YouTube is just as bad. They are not lesser evils.
 
@BBUK

Are y'all checking those shoes.

No, they are not lesser evils, they are however, a separate evil. I prefer to compartmentalize my evils and keep them to a minimum. I can't afford the extra facebook evil at this time. I'm sure you understand.

Sir,

When I was at Goodfellow AFB and Ft. Huachuca for my AIT's we were told to never attempt putting on our shoes without shaking them away from ourselves first. A habit engrained to this day. Scorpions, Tarantulas, and Snakes were observed in shoes during this time.

98C and 96D respectively. Two AIT's were granted to me supposedly having the highest score out of Middlesboro up until that time. So stated the doughboy E-6 with a much larger stomach than I ever had to this day. Dude had the Dunlap disease....

That is a good habit and one I do also.

When I was about 15 years old I stayed over at a buddy's house. When I got up the next morning I felt something crawling in my right shoe. I ripped it off and threw it against the wall and roaches started crawling out and flying everywhere. They had wings bigger than a humming bird.

They were so thick in his house they stopped a grandfather's clock from running. The next time I came over I brought a can of roach spray. I would much rather encounter a snake than a bunch of dad gum cock roaches. They are nasty suckers
 
No issues
When they're posted as youtube, you can play them as you go and continue to scroll and read as it plays. If I have to click a link to get to it, they it opens another window that usually contains more ads.

@UK82 Are we gonna rock UK gear or go as the Yuppies we are? I've pretty much decided that I'm going to wear my fathers UK sweatshirt. It's a 3xxx so I'll have lots of room to layer. Not good for rain, but I'll be warm in the cloud shine.

When I was in the bug business Sir, I cannot tell you the infestations I came across. I still shutter when I remember that hoard of roaches dropping on me as they scurried. I actually did those treatments "for the children" before that statement became poison in politics.

I was real young in Michigan (just remembered this.) My Dad came home from work wearing his large insulated boots and sat down stating something had been bothering him in his boot all day. (Dad was very probably half lit at the time.) But when he pulled his boot off and emptied it a mouse fell out. It was still alive but not kicking much....

I'm just going with the generic look:

I'll be wearing UK duds. Either layers or one big coat. We'll see how the weather is predicted. Looks like it might be rainy and windy. Game time is 1 PM. Where and when do you want to rendezvous?
 
Probably in a school near you.

Shelbyville or Simpsonville will be the easiest for both. Shelbyville will be the easiest for me. There's a WalMart there.
 
Congrats to you and the Mrs. UK82. I was talking to a woman today at the flower shop and she commented on the state of the family and commitments or rather lack of in some marriages today. Sad times
Are you still interested in meeting up for the Blue/White football game Saturday? Bertfan and I will be there and anyone else is certainly welcome.
 
OK, if Shelbyville is easiest for you then we'll meet in Simpsonville. :) The Shelbyville Walmart is fine by me. 11:30? Meet you at the front entrance?
Sounds good.. I'll know when you're there because my henchmen will be following you from the moment you leave. It's cool, I'll probably never use this info against you. Probably.

Anyone who posts here is more than welcome to come. Hopefully in the future, if a date is arranged, anyone who want s to can join in.

Anyone who wants to go to the Spring Game just speak up. We'll all meet up.

If I was in the area I'd do it just to say I did. Need to meet you varmit goomer Sir's anyway, though I think you are close to my age.

Welp, I'm in GD HS softball afterglow. She pitched a two hit shutout in a 1-0 win. Her first SO ever. Eleven K's, 1 BB. Literally they hit one ball to pull side of field. Missing starting SS & CF & yet 0 E's with some nice plays that really helped. Scored in top of 7th, unearned, but what do I care? First time they've beaten this team in 4 years & 5 games. Good team to boot. Assistant coach said he's been doing it 20 years & this is the game he's most proud for the team. Emotionally worn out. Did I say I'm happy? And melancholy as it's coming to an end too soon. Where's the bourbon?

Bourbon? Sounds more like a champagne event. Congrats to your GD!
 
Not my business but the first thing I'd determine is how much the flask holds... jmusao

Second response...is that all you got???

You'll never forget, she'll never forget. High school baseball memories are some of the best memories I have.

Keeping shoes in the fridge would have helped stop this issue, right?
 
How did the ML baseball season arrived without me knowing the National League had folded on the DH? I’m truly bummed - hate the DH. Plus, catchers have some sort of device that transmits the pitch call to the pitcher and middle infielders - no more signaling with fingers.

Still, always special for a new season to arrive.

I sadly quit watching the game I grew up loving and playing at a relatively high level...
 
Good Morning April 7th D League

Today is probably one of the most important dates in my life because on this day my wife of 55 years said she would travel down the road of life with me. I was a broke Buck Sgt in the Army with no money, no possessions other than a few guns, my 64 VW bug and a couple of shirts, pants and underwear. Oh I had a class ring. But she stepped out in faith and down the road we went. In my eyes she will always be that Sweet Blue Eyed Kentucky girl. Those 60 hairstyles are one for the ages.

This is my wife's favorite Waylon song and it is appropriate to celebrate 55 years together. I love you girl.

Good morning from ATX. Currently 48°F and clear with a light wind. Expecting our high reaching around 81°F.

We'll try our baby again today without IVs. If she crashes again, which usually happens within 36 hours after she comes off IVs, it means another trip to the emergency room. Fingers crossed. She's laying here on the floor next to me right now. Fed her once a few minutes ago. Must keep meals small and many. Feeding her more shredded boiled chicken in just a few.

Happy Friday, y'all.

Wishing happiness and health for all our fellow D-League members.
 
Good morning, D-League!

A brisk 42° in our little holler. Not as foggy as yesterday, but still a bit murky. Finishing my breakfast now that the ladies have gone on to work and school.

I'm supposed to get dressed up this weekend.... Fancy. ... I don't like fancy, but my wife likes to dress up her ken doll now and then. There will be NO pictures posted

Prayers being said that she comes off of the IV without further issues.
 
@MdWIldcat55
Very sorry to hear of your loss. I'm hearing about way too many deaths of young and promising people these days. I'm afraid there will be more to come. Safe travels and may His peace be upon you and yours
Thanks Girthang.

And good morning to the D-League. While the occasion was sad, it was great to have my older daughter here with her husband. We went out to a nice restaurant in DC for lunch, then another one over in the Maryland suburbs for dinner. My wife and younger daughter were also there. I went to sleep last night listening to my two daughters -- who have different mothers and are a decade apart in age -- laughing together like true sisters as they chatted down in my living room. That's a great feeling.

Thanks for checking with me. We have postponed our trip to late May. My granddaughter is graduating from high school. You guys should have fun and I hope the weather is nice at game time.

It will be on TV at 1:00 so I will anxiously tune in. I am pretty excited about football, basketball not so much.
 


Morning Legionnaires! In before the clock.

Exercising done, house chores done, showering done, now I will be rigging up some new lures to try out tomorrow in hopes to change my luck so far this year.

Got a text from a man whose son plays on a softball team in OKC and wants me to come on Sunday to pitch for his team. I have not said yes yet since I have not practiced or played any since this time last year. Plus, the drive to the ball park is a little over an hour from my house. Want to play, but not sure whether I should make the trip.
