If I eat crow I want to drown it in Tabasco sauce. Good win Cats. Keep it up.
This should be a wide open tournament this year because there is no super team. Anyone can get beat on any day. Tennessee is proof, they beat the #1 team and the next game are down by 20 at halftime. Strange year.
Keep it going Cats.
The only thing that disappointed me was that I wanted to beat the shit out of UT. Maybe by 35?
I will say one thing about the game, I enjoyed the CBS announcers much more than the ESPN and SEC Network boys and girls we see all of the time. A lot more professional and less messing around.
Fortunately we had the refs on our side for a change.
Were they really?
UK got more ft's but UT played thug defense and were forced to foul to try to get the possession. Sorry I totally disagree.
I don't think he was an original member Sir. I think he started with them after a member passed away. He did sing with them a long time though. I think longer than the original member he replaced.
That sounds reasonable and right. Was he with Lester Moran and the Cadillac Cowboys. Ole Roadhog was a goodin'
Me supper this evening. An air fried steak.. (With broccoli, rice, and soup (Greens and bean sprouts))

90th birthday for the woman that broke up the band. But did she really?
1) Cats own the Vols
2) Yoko was merely the final straw and the scape goat. They would have broken up anyway. My only regret is that she didn’t start dating Don Henley in year one of the Eagles
3) I forgot what #3 was for
4) Wallace should be the SEC freshman of the year. Without him...we are nothing

TN called for more fouls too.
Good morning from ATX. Currently 48°F, clear with a light wind from the south. Today's high expected around 75°F. Yeah, I'm up early. Fell asleep in the chair again last night after splurging on chocolate brownies couple hours previous. 
Win against Vols yesterday: Huge. Loved it. Despite all the negative hype from ESPN/SEC Network, I believe Cats still make the NCAA tourney with an at-large bid even if bounced early from SEC tourney. Seems those talking heads on ESPN forget that Cats are still in this thing.
Changing gears: My doggone feet started swelled up big-time soon after first 3 days of chemo week before last. My dang shoes started fitting really tight soon after. Hard to put on. Annoying, but I still hiked my butt 2 miles to HEB supermarket and back yesterday. Plan on longer walks today.
Wishing y'all a peaceful, enjoyable Sunday. Take care.

Good Sunday morning everyone.
We're still having internet troubles here at the end of the road. I had to listen to the game again yesterday, but that brings back fond memories. We're still hanging in there and it gives us (some of UK fans) hope. I would much rather live with hope than the alternative.
We picked up my wife's new baby (small) side x side yesterday. She is happy. The weather forecast for our upcoming vacation is awesome.
I hope everyone has a great day!

Good morning D-League. It's currently partly cloudy and 37° here in Eastern Kentucky. This afternoon will see the clouds give way to generally sunny skies and a high of 61°.
Have a great day and stay safe.

Good morning folks.
Big win for the Cats yesterday. It's been a few years since the Cats swept the Vols.
It's a crazy year in the world of college basketball and the SEC. Consider this:
Tennessee is 9-5 in the SEC, and have lost to Kentucky twice and is a Top Ten team and a 3 seed in bracketology..
Kentucky is 9-5 in the SEC and have beaten Tennessee twice and is unranked and a 10 seed in bracketology.
Not saying the Cats deserve better -- the team has done it to themselves with some bad losses. Just saying its a weird year.

70 plus degrees on tap today and for the next few days with mild to moderate winds.
Good win for the Cats yesterday and with that the feeling of making the tourney is pretty good. Did not feel that way a couple of weeks ago. I believe UK with 20 wins will get in because of name and how well we travel (money).
Was watching the game in bedroom because MIL and BIL were coming over and I did not want to be disturbed when they came in. One of my other mutts (not the monster) who generally stays in the bedroom when they are here (she does not like MIL) let out growling and barking noises I have not heard her let out before (she could see them from bedroom). She generally just barks a little and shakes because she has always been a bit fearful of others. This time she was moving forward with ears back and a little showing of the teeth. My baby is growing up. She is still young (a little over 2 years) but is showing signs of maturity. Took me by surprise. She will go around my BIL a little when he is here without MIL but, she will not when MIL is around. She does not like her for some reason.
Well folks, enjoy your Sunday and God Bless.
Good Morning All,
Good solid win for UK yesterday and that should take them solidly off of the bubble. Maybe a 9 or 10 seed. This is a strange year for college basketball and I don't see a super team that is heads and shoulders above everyone else. It is wide open for the trophy. IMO
Another beautiful Lord''s Day for us. 52° with partly cloudy skies and the high will reach 80° by mid afternoon. 2% chance of rain.
Getting ready for church this morning. I trust all are well and ready to face the day. Go get it.

Good morning all,
I hope this day brings you contentment...
Just got back from the Amazon Fresh store which is less than a quarter mile from my house. The store is anything but fresh and is brand new.
I needed some banana's for the BB's banana pancakes and darned if they were the near ugliest banana's I've seen. Dull looking but I found one decent enough to buy... $.15 but I didn't have a dime so I used my card....
Oh well, the BB will have his breakfast...
My hope is these Cats will take ownership of themselves and create what's yet to be created. A cohesive, well oiled team...
They just look choppy in their play. A little better yesterday but in no way dependable to each other...
One can only hope at this stage ..

Cats will beat Florida & Vandy
Auburn & Arkansas are toss ups. Lose BOTH of those games & I’m not sure 12 losses even gets us in the tourney (no way we run the table in SEC tourney with this team).
Point being...we have to go at least 3-1 down the stretch to get in. The Hogs are a bad matchup for us & it’s on the road. So in a world where everyone calls every game a “must win” game...the Auburn game is just that.

Puff The Magic Dragon. It's official call sign was Spooky, but it reminded the Vietnamese of a smoky fire breathing dragon, so to us it became Puff. This is what they looked like at night in action.
Dogs are a good judge of character. Our boxer Maddie loved everyone she ever met, except one man. I found out later that he had spent considerable time in prison for some bad stuff.

Good points. I am shocked that Vandy has a 5 game win streak and beat Auburn.
At the moment UK is in third place in the SEC. I don't understand the talking heads that are writing off UK's chances for the Tourney. UK is tied in the SEC with Tennessee and because of the sweep we are in third place.
A&M being in second place is an anomaly. They has some remarkable losses but have walked through the SEC because their SEC schedule has been against some of the easier teams and they have yet to play Tennessee, Alabama or Mississippi State. Maybe that is the reason A&M is not ranked.
Vandy is on a 5 game win streak and look impressive having beaten Tennessee, Florida at Florida and Auburn.
Bottom line is I am afraid of all SEC teams UK plays. Hopefully the Cats can get healthy and finish strong.
I'm not overlooking Florida Wednesday. I learned my lesson with USC and UGA. Even though they'll be playing without Castleton it's still the Swamp. Bad things happen there.
This season has shown you can not take anything for granted. Not even South Carolina and Georgia. You must be ready and prepared each night out.
I have witnessed some great UK teams go down in Alligator Alley days against very poor Gator teams. It was not a fun night or a fun drive back down to my house. I feel good about the game but but but. Be ready to play.
Hello all,
Had some good eating today... My Darlings expertise amazes me. I know there are better cooks out there and some equally good cooks that love what they do. Nearing 40 years of thankfulness, just for the healthy food I eat along with the love My Darling must have for me to take the time to cook like she does... (She did it for the children while they were home and on special occasions but MY special occasions are nearly every day.) Have I stated I am thankful..
Immediately below is steamed rice cake. The topping and middle is nothing but Black-eyed peas. (Soaked first and then crumbled) (My explanation, much more involved.) Very lightly sugared to a delicate sweetness that sets off the rice and peas.. (I've eat this so very many times I cannot count. I cannot get enough of it.) That cutting board is nearly two feet long to give an idea about the size. My Darling cuts it up into pieces, I get my fill of the fresh cake with coffee and then the rest is frozen and a minute or so in the microwave on defrost brings it to life... Days of delicacies at a touch... I am thankful...
A side-view ... My Darling sifts that rice flour by hand...
Sweet rice and flour "doughnuts". In the middle of these is a pod of brown sugar that turns to syrup when cooked. Outside is a mixture of regular cane sugar and brown sugar... Three to five of these with coffee first thing starts a good day. (I eat these only four or five times a year as they are loaded with sugar...)
My supper today. Home made chicken soup... My Darling bought a whole chicken and comes up with this... My Darling made this today because my youngest came home from being gone a week to San Antonio to visit friends. It is my youngest's favorite meal... (This was MY bowl...) (Just potato's and couple types of onions, some garlic, and I know something else, maybe ginger root. A feel good meal...
Sure glad I don't have to go into the office tomorrow... I am again, thankful!
I sure wish I could share with you, the D-League. My Darling would be happy as well. She knows where I find solace...
Have a peaceful rest of your evening(s.)..
Oh, I am a calorie counter again since I got my fitbit again after the fitbit recall. My calorie intake today was 2200. I try to stay at about 1800 but today was special. (Real hard to control the portions I eat...)

Good morning from ATX. Currently 57°F and a bit foggy. Expecting high around 80°F. Chance for spotty showers tomorrow.
Today, President's Day, is a federal and state holiday. I'm providing coverage and working. Can always use comp time.
Another round of evil gamma rays scheduled for this afternoon.![[winking]](http://l.yimg.com/j/assets/img/emoticons/classic/wink.r191677.gif "Winking [winking]")
. Heh, always cracks my nurse up when I say that. Hey, gotta put a humorous spin on it.
Wishing y'all a great start to the week. Go Cats!

Good morning D-League. It's currently 51° and overcast here in Eastern Kentucky. This afternoon will bring rain showers and a high of 57°.
Have a great day.

Good morning everybody.
Nice and warm this morning and the rain has not yet arrived so I'll pour a fresh cup of coffee in a minute and go sit on the front porch. It's a great morning to enjoy the feel, smell, and sounds of early spring. I use to do that about every morning when I had dogs, but haven't much since I lost my last dog 11 years ago. The birds and wildlife should be active with the incoming rain.
Packing today and will be on the road for 12 hours tomorrow beginning at daybreak. Forecast for the week in FL...mid to upper 80's everyday with lows around 60 and less than 10% chance of rain. Winter vacations are the best.
I hope everyone has a great day.

Good Monday Morning D
Currently 55° with mostly sunny skies and our high should reach 75° this afternoon. Rain chances are 2% rising to 10% late this afternoon. The weather should remain pleasant for the next few weeks.
This will be "concert week" for me. Looking forward to some great music. Not too much going on, I will head to the gym later this morning for a cardiac workout and my upper body. Still working on that left shoulder.
A couple of bobcats have been spotted close to my house. They have made a little home in the wildlife preserve behind my place. watch out for your pets. Take care all,

74° expected today with light to moderate winds. Giving it until tomorrow before fishing. Will go out after training my student and give it the first go of the year.
Wife and I did the taxes with Turbo Tax yesterday (she does most of it after I gather the documents). Good news is, we will be getting $3,600.00 back. Of course, that is after the IRS confirms the numbers. Turbo Tax has an audit that confirmed our numbers and as long as they are input correctly there is no problem. We have done it with Turbo tax for about 4 years now since FT. Sill quit doing them free for retirees and have not had a problem yet.
Nothing more other than: Keep up the good fight @AustinTXCat, another prayer sent this morning for you and for all, GOD BLESS.
Good morning folks. Cloudy and cool in the east.
Slow day at work today -- because it's a federal holiday enough people are taking off that the string of mandatory Monday meetings are canceled. That's really what makes me hate Mondays, so it's like a free day today.
My wife got back from NYC last night. I wish I'd gone with her. She had some great photos from the 9/11 Memorial site, and some good museum shots, including some she took for me of a Baseball Card Exhibit at the Metropolitan Museum that would have been a chance to see many of the rarest cards it existence.
Oddly enough, they also had some fairly common cards from the 1950s in the exhibit -- Koufaxes, Mantles, Berras -- that I have in my collection and I was able to show my wife. Now a small Coleman cooler full of cards I've carried around our whole marriage, along with a couple binders of less common cards represent dollar signs to her. I won't disillusion her that even if I could find a buyer at near-retail prices my collection MIGHT be worth $5,000-$6,000, thanks to some 1950s era cards I've kept since an uncle gave them to me, and my fanatical collection of sets between 64-68 that are now worth a few bucks.
Hope you all have an easy day.
