Surprised with getting a 6th seed. I'll take that bracket. And, the Friday/Sunday?? games work better for me this year.
There's always hope this time of the year.

Morning D-Legionnaires!
Agree with everyone that we have a decent seeding and bracket (all things considered). Unfortunately, with our Jeckell and Hyde performance this year it is hard to say who will show up. On a positive note, we don't have to play Vandy again
Storm, they may be a little bit South of where you go although they have been spotted in Sumter, Lake and Citrus Counties. Here is an article from 2019 of the problems in Brevard County (Space Coast) and how much of a nuisance they can be. They are nasty and tear up about everything they get next to. And they make a lot of noise. Loud noise.I don't think I've seen a peacock in FL yet.
This is my method of adjusting:Good Monday Morning
I have adjusted OK to the time change. Got up at my normal 5:30 AM without an alarm clock. I have never had to rely on an alarm clock. If I know I need to get up at 3:00 AM to catch a plane or go on a trip. I wake up.
I just picked up on this thread......I have been the patriarch of our family since I was 56 yrs old....... I am the last limb of our family tree.........the men folk in our family don't live to be very old...........except for me........I am going to be the trail blazer.........Thanks Sir,
Just got back from our weekly grocery run to the markets.
It is disheartening, my Dad lived to be 74 (He never took care of himself, drank caroused, among other things.) My Brother is pushing 72 now (He drinks and used to smoke cigars but he has taken much better care of himself then our parents and relatives did.) as I am pushing 62. I think about the history knowing that my Dad very probably lived longer than ANY of his family. My maternal grandpa lived to be 72 (I was with him trying to revive him when he died, I was on leave at the time from Fort Bragg.), my Mom died at 67. (Mom never drank (Just a little when I was very young. (I saw a couple pictures.) Mom did smoke a bunch, (My maternal grandma died at 67.) Dad chewed, smoked, drank, ...
While I love my Dad and Mom, I took off in life very tempered. Though I had my moments I cannot say I abused myself except in spurts. (I made a covenant with God long ago (In my mid-teens) as to the things I would, not, do...) (I have not done those things I knew would lead for sure to a short life.)
Who knows what tomorrow holds as we are not promised tomorrow. In any event for me I am thankful. The move we are making at the beginning of April will be to a home My Darling can keep up with. It is new and even though brand new homes can have plenty of issues it won't be anything major. My two daughters live within a couple miles and my one daughter will be right at a mile away.
I will feel better once we get moved and settled. While I feel fine now, I have relatives that died much too early BUT, they all had vices and lifestyles that very probably caused their premature deaths. I'd say my brother and I are in un-charted waters as far as longevity goes but, in any event, I am thankful. I know the Lord, and he is who I put my trust in and have for a long while now...
God Bless you Sir and all...
I have raised French Muscovy ducks for years........we eat a lot of duck.........So daughter purchased some baby ducks from Tractor Supply. Oh, boy. I'd prefer she bought Geese. Geese make for better service watch animals. Nearest body of water is Indian Creek, roughly one mile distant. Maybe I can convince her to release at Fern Lake down near Middlesboro after they grow a bit. Anyways, granddaughter seems excited.
Just read French Muscovy are great for meat. Around here, they are huge sellers mainly in the Asian community. Could make for a decent little side-hustle if she can educate herself more. Perhaps I can "surprise" my daughter with some more ducks when I travel out there next month.I have raised French Muscovy ducks for years........we eat a lot of duck.........
Perhaps if things go according to plan the awf's would have some ducklings to share with someone that was interested.......if you have grass to put them on they are very economical to raise. They will fly....(away)......if not clipped. I have had them sit on as many as 32 eggs.......hatching 26 and raising 24.......they would be ready for the market at between 10-12 weeks of age.........they don't quack and make a bunch of noise........the eggs are quite tasty..........and they don't need a lot of water.....we have a wading pool that is maybe 40" x 12".........they are a land based duck.......they are also the only duck that isn't related to the wild mallard genetically........they are probably closer to a goose.........Just read French Muscovy are great for meat.

Sounds great. Let me check with daughter here over the next day or so and I'll get back with you.Perhaps if things go according to plan the awf's would have some ducklings to share with someone that was interested.......if you have grass to put them on they are very economical to raise.

Here's something to think about. Last year the Cats lost to St. Peters on St. Patrick's Day. This year the Cats play Providence, a Catholic college, also on St. Patrick's Day. I have to get that thought out of my head.
Our pastor keeps telling us this, if we are going to praise GOD, in our good times, we need to praise HIM when times are not so good!!! GOD is the reason I have gotten through our loss of JP, he also says it's ok to question GOD, I have, I've ask him many times why, one day I will know the answer!!!Hello all,
Settled down a bit. It was not a good day at work. My counterpart was well loved and had been there about ten years. I grew fond of him in the few months I have known him...
In all things give thanks... a hard saying but trusting in God is easy. God Bless you all.
No, it does not make things better for anyone I know. With both parties running investigations on each other (appeasing their base but nothing ever happens), they have no time for doing the real work people need them to do. After a few weeks of BS they will recess (go on vacation for a month or so), come back, investigate more, and then recess some more. Wash, Rinse, And Repeat. Cynical?...Maybe.Good morning D-League.
Cold in the east, and sunny. Running late for work today. Stupid time change. Serious question: does the time change make things better for anyone on this board? Seems like a useless relic of the past that our useless Congress can’t change out of uselessness.
It’s nice have son and daughter home for a bit.
Nothing much else to report but work. Have a good day, folks.
Tough drive though.Good Morning
Cooler today with a present temperature of 51° with 0% of rain, sunny skies and a high of 70°. A nice day to clean out my garage. There is always something to do around the house. I trust all are well
