I always heard you catch more flies with syrup than vinegar. I stille trying to figgure that one out from time to time with proper medication. I understood perfectly well when that same woman heard one of the guys grumble "Horse shit" about something and she informed him that sugar would be much better if your going to put it in your loud mouth. My Aunt Pearl was soaked in Lashley. Sweet Baby Dumplin" Gramma. One night, during a feud, she showed up with her meat cleaver. That sure stirred things up.

Fishing report:
Many, many strikes. Hooked 12, landed 9, brought 6 home since the in laws (MIL and BIL) will be over for the holiday weekend (vegans). Wife was going to commissary after work today to buy fish but now will not have to. She will still get some shrimp to add to the fish.
Did not use kayak today, it was raining when I got up and the winds were higher than expected. Weather report said 0% chance of rain with 5-10mph winds expected. Hmmm. Anyway, I probably would not have been able to handle it since my left hand is still stiff and hurting. It was hard enough holding the rod while reeling. All of them felt like lunkers with my left hand in this condition. Still, a good day on the ponds.
Stayed out longer than normal since the day was cooler. On my way home I texted my wife to inform her not to buy fish and she replied back: "Text your daughter, she is worried something might have happened to you". She (my daughter) is getting like her mother. When I got home, she told me she was a little worried because I was gone longer than normal. I told her that she should know better than to worry because there is no Kryptonite around here. She gave me a look and a smirk as if to say: "Give me a break".

TV shows that have my interest...besides the Greatest Show ever...Ancient Aliens...
The Secret of Skinwalker Ranch
Dark Winds
The Secret of Skinwalker Ranch

Not sure if many are interested but if you get a chance try watching a clip of Dae Jo Yeong, it has english subtitles. 134 episodes. You can find some previews online but it is a true story of Korea depicted in this drama. I got hooked on it watching in Korea and bought the set. I watch it some. The actor portraying Dae Jo Yeong I call the Korean John Wayne...
Talked to Ymmot for a good while today As always conversation erratic, fun and quite entertaining. Aliens didn't come up so we discussed if a squirrel crossing the road was evolutionary, I told him I didn't see it., Likely a clever mammalian adaption. He's fired up for Levis and Football season with good reason. That's great and I too am excited but we've got hands down greatest civilized warrior in all the known college hoop universe on my team and they're plaing in August. Even better, no "Prima Donna" distraction.

Good morning from ATX. Currently 73°F and clear. Today's high might reach 97°F. Glad we finally got some sane temperatures.
Migrant death toll in San Antonio increased from 46 to 51. Tragic, indeed. Huge local uproar on all sides.
Happy Hump Day.
Wishing happiness and health for all our fellow D-League members.

Morning Legionnaires!
Low 90's expected today with sunny skies. Low 60's right now but all of that changes come this weekend. triple digits start Monday and for the foreseeable future. Makes the fishing days very short as the temps start out at the mid 70's and rapidly increase.
Training student today after lunch instead of tomorrow. Taking my instructor to lunch tomorrow with other former students going with. His mother died Sunday and some are traveling from other parts of country to be with him and go to a viewing after lunch. His mother will be cremated Friday and the rest of his family have requested only family to be there for that. He has asked me to be there since he and his siblings don't get along and haven't for years. He now says I am his only brother. Not sure how that will sit with the others but...

Death brought by this global destructive chaos should be expected with the unimaginable incompetence of our governmental decision making officials. November midterms can't get here soon enough.
@BBUK, I noticed since I was gone for a couple of weeks the ryanbruner clown has returned and is harassing you. Pay him no mind. He is a child and is to be ignored.
It is sunny and 65.7°F on our way to 90°F with no chance of rain, plus the humidity is over 50.
Did you get home Sawnee Cat?

Good Morning Bert,
Thank you for asking. Yes we arrived safe and sound. Left Kentucky at 5:30 AM and got home at 5:25 PM a 12 hour drive. It was smooth all the way and traffic light with no rain or accidents in those 12 hours. An hour after we got home, here came the rains and lightning storm. It was a down pour for a solid hour. I mean Florida hard, as you are aware of living in Jacksonville. But we needed it.
Currently we have 75° and a few clouds. Sun is peaking out and we will reach 88° by this afternoon. We have a 36% chance of rain late afternoon. Humidity is Florida style, if you work outside you are going to sweat and you better have plenty of water around to keep from dehydrating. That is how it has been since the beginning of time.
Hard to believe tomorrow is the last day of June and that this year is half over.
Just checking in with you guys. Long, hard day but a three day weekend ahead.
Chatted with Gary Sinese’s agent today, setting up an interview for one of my writers and a photo op. Turns out he’s going to be at Fort Campbell on the 4th, entertaining with his Captain Dan’s Band and hosting a cookout. Good for him. We’ll get an interview out of that to run later in the year.
All’s well otherwise. I hope the same for all of you.

Good morning from ATX. Currently 77°F and clear. We may hit 97°F for today's high.
I've been packing and prepping for trip. Nearly complete.
Heading into the office this morning. Keeping it short.
Wishing happiness and health for all our fellow D-League members.

Good morning. It is a sunny 66.4°F on our way to 92° with a 20% chance of rain. I am still hoping for all 20% of it. Grass is dry, dry dry.
Need to do some work outside today but the forecast may keep me in. I did actually go get a bottle of bourbon, the mail and 4 screws at the hardware store. A long two mile trip. Pretty exhausting.
You all have a good day, I may do like Beetle Bailey, but the tree I lean on may be in the AC!

Good morning D
We have 74° and sunny skies and will move on up to 87° by this afternoon. Late afternoon will bring us a 49% chance of thunderstorms. My wife loves it and prays for a lightning storm. She says it is better than the 4th of July. Awesome power.
I need to get caught up on my yardwork too. I have been gone for two weeks and it shows. Work, work and more work but it keeps me moving and that is important. Maybe someday I will buy a condo by the beach and move but not today. I ain't there yet.
I have a bunch of ebays sales to get sent out. One more to package up and I can take them down to the Post Office.
Take care all, prayers for those in need.

Good morning folks. I can't even afford to wake up these days with the way my job is going. Opened my email first thing to find that a terrific WW2 historian in London I am working with has to bow out of a major project for personal reasons. Hate it for him, and I am at least temporarily screwed. But as we all learned over our long work lives, there is always an answer and it always works out.
My wife and daughter are getting revved up for their London excursion. I'm just hoping they don't get crushed by the terrible scramble air travel has become. I'm toying with the idea of using my freedom for a quick raid on the Bluegrass. I was just there three weeks ago, but can always use another visit.
Hope you folks are doing well.

Holy goodness, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled 6-3 that the Environmental Protection Agency does not have the authority to mandate carbon emissions from existing power plants. Hallelujah! Now let us unfund the EPA.
Maybe Congress will now put the final nail in the Green New Deal. Screw the extremists. Now it is time to overthrow a bunch of Joe's Executive order.

Early HAPPY 4th of JULY to everyone here on the D-L. The wife and I will be spending the Day of Independence at Nolin Lake. Everyone be happy and keep an eye on the skies. I'm sure our neighbors in the Galaxy will be looking in on us wondering what's going on! 👽👽👽

I turned 71 a few weeks ago. Same train different time. We're simple here. When you ain't, you're missed and always welcome.
Good morning from ATX. Currently 75°F and mostly cloudy. Today's high expected around 98°F. More triple-digits on the way.
I'm nearly packed. Pup seems well. Must prepare some boiled chicken for her and grocery shop tonight. Sure is a challenge getting out of here.
Happy Friday, y'all.
Wishing happiness and health for all our fellow D-League members.

Good Friday Morning D
Well, I made it to Friday. Our temperature at the present is 72° and we should hit 84° this afternoon. Humidity is below normal with a 65% chance of rain by 3:00 PM. Winds are 8 mph from the west.
Today several new state laws go into effect one being the playing of loud "boom box" radios in your car. If a person can hear your radio with all the windows rolled up in traffic you are violating the law. I like that one. One reason for this was some car stereo radios were so loud motorist could not hear emergency vehicles. This has caused accidents and even deaths. Noise pollution is a problem in some of our large cities. Maybe the new law will fix that problem. Our local sheriff said it will be enforced starting now.
I trust all have a great day, free of noise pollution and boom box stereo speakers in the car next to you at the red light. Rap on boy and pay your fine.

Went to a viewing of my karate instructor's mother at the funeral home last night with some of his black belts. One of the guys in recent times had colon cancer and had a foot of colon removed because if it. He said the treatments and medication has lightened his skin a lot as he saw we had noticed it. He is black and the shorter of the two black men pictured below.
I told him that in 10 years he will look like this if it keeps going:
78.8°F to top out at 93° with 40% chance of rain. Not a drop yesterday, probably none today.
The college conference realignment is going to change thing dramatically. With USC and UCLA missing from the Pac (what ever number) will it remain a "power" conference? That will make the Big Ten a 16 team conference, but the travel expenses could get big as it will be a transcontinental conference.

Good morning folks. I saw that Hershel "Woody" Williams died yesterday - the last World War 2 Medal of Honor winner to pass away.
I had the honor of chatting with him a couple years ago, setting up an interview for a piece I designed and edited on the 75th anniversary of VJ Day. I turned him over to a writer working for me after that, but I'm glad i got to speak with him at all. Here's the piece, in case anyone is interested. We led off with the Woody interview...

Survivors Remember Historic Moments of WWII
From raising the flag at Iwo Jima to watching Nazis surrender, survivors from World War II tell their stories from some of the historic moments.
Sawnee: I saw your post above about "How Big Is Texas?"
Well, this has always been my favorite answer to that question - on a t-shirt I bought outside Crawford in 2003...

Bert, So sorry for your losses. I can't imagine the pain you had to endure with losing grandson Owen. Not sure of your connection with J.P. but obviously someone close.I have been wondering where you have been. Good to see you Cord.
Happy Birthday to you, you young punk. Geeze people that are only 70 should not even have a drivers permit!
Happy Heavenly Birthday tomorrow to J.P.
Also yesterday was when my grandson Owen got killed in 2015.
I'm sure they are never far from your thoughts.
