Good morning! Tee time at 1031. Today will be the fifth day in a row. I hope what little bit of exercise it gives is doing more good than harm. Doesn't feel that way sometimes.

I've got both Song of the South and Holiday Inn. Has Holiday Inn been banned? I'm assuming it has to do with the black-face scene. God Lord.That is very kind of you. Let's talk about it and work out the details.
I could send a few items in a small box and see how it works out. I have a lot of older movies, many that have been banned by the PC crowd that own the copyrights. Disney, CBS and others. I managed to get my copy from Japan. A few are old standards with Bing Crosby and folks of his generation. Movies like Song of the South, Dixie, Swannee River, Holiday Inn etc. Most are musical but cancel culture and the PC crowd see them as a threat to our American culture so they banned them.
Enough of that and thank you.
She's an expert?How would she know?
Yeah, I have a few stories too. Including one where I was contacted by the ex-wife of my ex-wife's new husband (one of the guys she cheated with which is why we got divorced) telling me of my ex's arrest for child abuse. She beat the son of her new husband (that woman's child) so bad he had bruises on his head, neck, legs, and testicles. She spent a night in jail for it. The boy's mother was warning me to ensure that it did not happen to my sons as well. I have a copy of the court record (compliments of that woman) which I showed to my ex after she continued telling my sons lies about me. I told her to stop the lying and they will not know. She was furious and started screaming that she will get me for that. Not long afterwards my sons told me that Jeff (her then husband) was going to Judo classes several times a week and was going to take me on in about 6 months. I started laughing and said, "What do you think boys, can he take me?" they said "No way dad, it won't even be close". At that time, I was training most nights and competing on weekends that I was off from the military.Mine, too.
Not you, but me. She hates me. Always really sweet to my face though. Especially if drunk. But when I'm not there she's got some really good lies to tell. I forgave the lies, so now it's between her and our Creator to sort out. But if you ever want a good story...
Have had a big plastic container of those in the house since just before Easter. 3/4 of the way gone.Good morning from ATX. Currently 71°F and cloudy. Occasional drizzle. Clearing later for a high around 86°F.
Day 15 and our appetite is still solid. No messes. Pooping well. Loves boiled chicken. Wife said yesterday she called her twice to eat and she just stayed by the door waiting on me.
Local news announced 10 drownings happened last year out on nearby Lake Travis. Deputies were engaged in recovery operations for 9 consecutive weeks. Yikes!
Happy Friday!
Wishing happiness and health for all our fellow D-League members.

He and I squared off a couple of times (if you could call it that) and she intervened telling him one time to get back in their truck and the other to get back in the house which he did.
Sometimes I wish... no, I would have probably wound up in jail. Below is me in those days. Check out my buddy in the background. No, not Bruce.
I have that one also.My favorite Tom T LP was "The Magnificient Machine" He's a great story teller, writer and musician. Another of fabulous Kentucky artists for sure and deserves the HoF recognition.

My right knee and hip are artificial. I need both on my left side but the operation was postponed in March of 2020 because of covid. I have not been in the mood to reschedule it because they will have to take the steel out of the leg as shown in the x-ray below. Plus both ankles are bone on bone also.Thanks! Abuse of back and knees have caught up with me. I've always stayed in pretty good shape but that doesn't always matter. Little things over time are the culprit. Hopefully it'll pass (again) but if not then it's off to the doc.
Possible record high and sunny for Thunder Over Louisville tomorrow night. Perfect! No way am I fooling with that crowd. I'll just watch it on my big screen as usual.
I should be there watching with my twin cousin from his front porch in Jeffersonville. I'm his favorite democrat because he knows, being a patriot, I'm not about to vote for any democratic candidate for anything and haven't now for years, the last time being General Wesley Clark in a primary. The Clark Memorial Bridge is visible from his porch. The river too if you cross the street and walk about a block. There'll be a party, rain or shine. I remember shooting him once when I was about 13 or 14. (a ricochet). He ran up the flood wall with me chasing him, both of us hollering. Then he fell and rolled all the way to the bottom with me trying to stop him. Finally I caught him and ripped his shirt off and he had little more than a scratch. He looked at me with that silly little grin of his and said "That scared the shit out of you didn't it? He was right. I should have shot him with specific intent. He deserved it just for being a Hoosier. Six Mile can be seen from my family home where my sister's lives today home off River Road next to the Louisville Boat Club. Much better view from Kentucky side of things. I miss the Derby festivities and celebration. I miss the Belle's fog horn salute to the Boat Club and hearing the Calliope music as it passes.
You soon, I want to be there to watch.My right knee and hip are artificial. I need both on my left side but the operation was postponed in March of 2020 because of covid.

You must have been "blinded by the light" and did not see it happen. Because, it did.I thought "the calliope crashed to the ground".

Today is a big day for fishermen in our state. It is the start of Red Snapper season. It runs for the next 57 days. Some of the best salt water fishing you can do. And red snappers taste really good. Destin is a great place to do it.
There is always something to do in Destin. Back not too long ago Destin had a bridge and a bait shop at the bottom of the bridge. That was it. Notice the sugar white sand beach that went for miles with nobody on it. They call it progress.Won't help us now Sir but my daughter is supposed to be booking us a place to stay in Destin in early July. (Yes I would)
We don't buy steak very often but I have a hankering for Thunder tomorrow. My God! The price of rib eyes!!!!
Have you considered using a PLEX with your NAS? It's really the only way to go.I've got both Song of the South and Holiday Inn. Has Holiday Inn been banned? I'm assuming it has to do with the black-face scene. God Lord.
I converted my entire collection (VHS, DVD and laserdisc) to MP4. Roughly 1,000 movies. I also converted all of my CDs to FLAC which is a lossless format. It's all stored on a network attached storage (NAS) drive. It's time consuming to do but well worth it. Backing up everything is crucial. My big mistake is that I didn't buy a powerful enough NAS to view/listen remotely. That can be easily corrected though.
1992 I went out on one of the fishing boats out of Destin. I went with a female and we were just going out to ride around for 10 hours. Neither of us wanted to fish. The people running the boat insisted we fish. Most of that had to do with the quality of female I took with me. The guys took a liking to her. Anyway, I caught too many red snappers and I gave them all away to the people who had paid to fish. We kept 2 fillets and I bought a charcoal grill and charcoal at Walmart and cooked em up at the motel. Good eats.Today is a big day for fishermen in our state. It is the start of Red Snapper season.

I love that dude! I reckon I've watched all of his videos. He's probably as authentic as Justin Wilson, but it's always a fun watch nonetheless.
Been home for about an hour or so. Played golf from 1030 until 2100. A couple of down times but played about 42 holes. Highlight of the day was holing out from about 130 yards for a birdie on a par 4. I had to lay up because of a derelict drive.

The Charter Boat Captains want as many fish caught as possible because potential customers line the pier waiting for the boats to come in and check out their catch. If a boat comes in with little to show for a 1/2 day or full day of fishing the potential customer will go on down to the boat that has a large catch. It is a very competitive business.1992 I went out on one of the fishing boats out of Destin. I went with a female and we were just going out to ride around for 10 hours. Neither of us wanted to fish.

There are some very happy people beside and behind the Gov.Not quoting this to be political. The politics is a by-product but can you kind of say DeSantis resembles this guy quite a bit.... figuratively and literally...

You should, they put rails on yours.I'll let you decide that. I'll stay in my own lane...
There's plenty of blame to go around. My problem with Cal is that he refuses to change with the times. Similar to Denny Crum refusing to adapt to the 3-point rule. Let me state this for the record, I AM NOT A COACH. UK needs 3-point shooters and not just 1 or 2. The dribble drive is antiquated and easy to defend, just pack the lane. Use your bench and use your timeouts effectively. Zone is not a 4-letter word. Adapt to changes in defense by opposing teams. Centers don't always have to play with their back to the basket. And so on and so on.
Once upon a time Cal had the athletes to manhandle other teams. That time is no longer. Changes are needed. I've always been a Cal supporter but I've soured a bit. 2017 we got robbed by the refs but since then it's been disappointing. Kansas State, Auburn, 9-win year, St. Peters. Even the Covid year that could have been special had turmoil.
Don't get me wrong. I'm still positive. This year's team should be better than last if all the pieces fall into place. Hoping Cal pulls a UVA.
This is pretty much where I am as well. I never thought for a minute that UK football would mean more to me than basketball, but here I am. I love how the football program just keeps building and becoming more exciting with each passing season. On the other hand, the basketball program has become stale and boring. Can things change, yes, will they, I doubt it.This is a point few are mentioning. If he graduated in May 2021 that gives him a full year to play at UK. So why didn't he?
We are in the Twilight Zone with this coach and this university. I always thought eligibility was one of the first things our athletic department looks at before they hand out scholarships. Now they are trying to convince us he was eligible all last year and I guess Sandy Bell and her staff knew it. They would have to know it if they got his high school transcript and a copy of his diploma. Or do they check these things on the basketball team? Maybe since we only expect them to stay one year no one gives a hoot. Just rubber stamp what Cal does with no questions asked.
I don't care what anyone says Calipari has pretty much ruined basketball for many UK fans. Oh the naive will hang on, the boosters who love the insides of the program will hang on but the everyday, go to work , pay your taxes and raise your family UK fan is finding something else to do. They are leaving more and more every day. I know because I have witnessed it in my family. A topic for another day.
But it is what it is. Some care, some don't.
You should, they put rails on yours.
