A little John Boy and Billy political humor:
I need spellcheck. I never won any bee involving spelling. Horrible speller.
Morning folks it is a warm 67.8°F here on our way to 86°. It is sunny and our little cool spell looks to be about over.
Well, a Kansas Senator is asking the DOJ to investigate ESPN's part in Texas and Oklahoma moving to the SEC. It has to really pain Kansas to be left in a decimated football and basketball conference.

Not even a bite yesterday in 3 hours.
Darn.... (I had to bug you about it though. It's in my nature...) here's a couple bites for you...
Good afternoon D, taking a break from staining our deck.
Nothing else going on.
Our viaduct in our little town claimed another truck this morning! It's clearly with flashing lights and a sign that it's just 11' clearance, but do they stop, NO!!!! Peeled the top off like a tin can!!!!!
I hope the D has a great day, I have to mow today too, sometimes. Prayers for the D!!!!!

BITE ME.Darn.... (I had to bug you about it though. It's in my nature...) here's a couple bites for you...
I once read a story about a truck hauling some critical load that got wedged under a viaduct because it was a fraction of an inch too tall. A crowd of engineers and the fire department and mechanics all gathered around and tried to wrench the truck out or shove it through. No luck.
Finally, a ten-year old boy walked up and says, "Why don't you let the air out of the tires?" They did, and the truck slipped through.
Probably a story some writer made up. But I hope it is true.
That beer-drinking "thing"? mesmerizes me. (Dam spell check.)
Where's the Bass?

Going to get a ban for something I just posted on the Rafters so I wish you all the best over here. Y’all are good people. I’m so busy during the summer don’t have time to post but I’m always thinking of y’all. You’ve been very good and welcoming to me the last couple of years. I. however, have my limits, as most good people do. I will be back, y’all take care 🙂
Good morning from ATX. Currently 77°F and cloudy. 84% humidity. Today's high expected around 92°F. Muggy meter = gross. We received a little rain yesterday. High remained around 83°F. Nice.
Fifth stage COVID alerts for Travis County been going out via phones and social media. Funny thing is I visited grocery store yesterday and few shoppers wore masks. Makes you wonder.
Happy Friday!
Wishing happiness and health for all our fellow D-League members.

I am going to buy myself a Lone Ranger mask or some other type of party mask and if they say we have to mask up around here, I will wear it. Seriously.
Hey, wait for me...
Oh, Have a blessed day and be a blessing to someone else. (That's the real blessing.) God Bless you all...
Good Friday Morning

We have 73° and mostly sunny skies at the moment. Our high is expected to reach 85° by mid afternoon. We will have the usual lookout for scattered thunder storms and a possible rain.
The word on the street is Biden is going to attempt to cut off funds to Florida to punish DeSantis. I am sure the governor is shaking in his boots. I have some Ebay sales I need to get to the post office and maybe get outside and clean up a few scattered limbs that were blown of trees. Nothing serious, just clean up.
So I trust all are well and we still miss some of the older posters. Sing it Johnny and George

My buddies grandfather drove trucks for a while in his younger days. There was a bridge in the town they lived at the time that was listed about 6 inches higher than it was on account of the road being repaved and rebuilt for years. There was a delivery on one route that, if you could go under that bridge, was about 15minutes faster, so a driver unfamiliar with that bridge decided to go that way.
It does in fact peel the lid off like an old sardine can. Driver was completely covered in pickle juice and such all because the truck was an inch or so too tall. Let the air out of the tires enough to get it unstuck. Made the front page of the local paper.
Well, there you go. The story I read about is true, or at least plausible. Anything that happens once has likely happened more than once.
Happy Friday D_League. I hope everyone has a good day and eases into a fun and, or restful weekend.
Good morning D-League. It's currently 71° and mostly sunny here in Eastern Kentucky. This afternoon will bring cloudy skies and a chance of a shower or thunderstorm and a high of 86°.
Everyone stay safe on this Friday.

Good, mid-morning break D-League! H ave a great day and weekend! It's nice and sunny, muggy, but cooler for now, so I'm getting some building done while the other folks are just starting to call. Cuttin rebar and making something useful.
Don't believe the lies you'll hear. No way they can have 74% of Clovis hospitalizations being the vacxed in one town, 60% in another, and everywhere else with democrat leadership they are all unvacxinated. Just not possible.
Somehow, some way, though, they have managed to get a lot of people that haven't been around each other to all show up with symptoms in the same week. Wonder how they can do that when it's so politically expedient? Must be coincidence.
Again, have a GREAT weekend! And if you smell a burnt aluminum smell that dries out your nasal passages when you're outside, put on a good mask, a wet gaiter, or go back inside til it goes away. May God bless those that listen to Him, and may He have mercy on those that don't know Him but are fine people!

A friend of our extended Bluegrass family was just there with his wife this summer. That's the only part of our visit to Rome that I have no photos from. Wife asked me to leave the camera at home the day the tour took us there. Totally pissed.... lol. Oh well.
Maybe I will see it again if n when there is some sanity restored to this world
Morning folks. 72.1°F and cloudy on our way to 86°. I am praying for rain but 20% chance ain't a lot.
I have seen a couple trucks stuck under overpasses. Often it does structural damage to the bridge. Truckers are usually good at safe practices, but it is hard to get to 100% perfect 100% of the time.
Can you imagine the crap that they have to take when they get back to the dispatcher.

They probably don't do much more than pick up their check.
Just in time for school to start. How about that/ lol
This must be the jokers who I used for my last move. They tore up half of the load in one way or another. They also lost a lot of it, or stole it. It was a nightmare and I am still fighting over it.
I moved furniture, nationwide, every summer of my college days and we had pride and took the extra step not to break something. Some people do not have that same type of concern in today's world.

My son lives in Gainesville and works for the Gainesville VA, he has been giving my daughter here a lot of crap about working with china virus infected people just about since this started. (He went way over the top in stuff he stated. I had to shut him up a few times.)
Anyway he text us last night that he is getting floated to a china virus unit to work starting today. (He has been vaccinated but boy has his attitude changed.) My daughter thankfully didn't rub it back at him as he went way overboard in smart remarks to her about moving to Florida. (I agree with the moving to Florida but he was way too callous with his words toward his sister.)
I was tempted to smack him down a

Good Friday all. Been busy. Took the little guy fishing yesterday and then had to start mowing, trimming, etc on the property. Got a good number of people coming over Sunday. B'day party for the g'daughter that the Mrs and her daughter are putting on. Won't mention the number of folks coming over (parents with their kids) in case the 'president' monitors this board and sends in the storm troopers.
Will be tons to eat (thank heaven that so far I haven't been told I have to man the grill). And some blow-up yard toys and a giant water slide...company coming tomorrow to set that all up in the back yard and perhaps one field.
All the kids coming don't know the g'daughter....but when you're 8-10 years old, who cares. Kids can make friends in a matter of minutes. Wish adults were like that.
Time for a warrior-cat fishing report. OC and the little guy 2....fish population 2 (the ones that got away).
He caught a nice little 10-12 inch bass so it made the trip for him. He was excited...so it was worth the time.
Bert, if by chance you get any rain and you have a little left over, try to sent it North. It is so dry up here. Can't hardly remember the last time it rained. Was like a dust bowl while mowing. Amazing how your nice, beautiful green grass can turn to straw.

We have had around 10 inches in the recent days and as I was getting out of the pool a few minutes ago I noticed how green everything was and how lush. It is amazing what a little rain can do. You can water and water and water but nothing makes it as green as God's rain.
It reminds me of a little tune written by Johnny Cash.
Has anyone in the D League seen our Rooster or heard from him? He is missed. Any word from you cousin, Bert?
No word.Has anyone in the D League seen our Rooster or heard from him? He is missed. Any word from you cousin, Bert?
I hope he is okay. Plus not railroad pictures.
I miss him and trust he is well. I too miss the railroad pictures. He is an asset to the D League and smart. We need his intelligence to balance low information folks like me
I put this on the political board but it is good enough to share with the D. I actually saw this ad on TV and thought it was a joke. So I googled it and sure enough this is real.
Woka-Cola. Be less white and drink woka-cola and die of diabetes. What an ad.

UK I think ours here is 11'4", this last one ripped the entire top off. It looked like he got started thru it and then said well might as well rip it all off!!!!! This has been going on for as long as I can remember and I am 70!!! Wish I knew how many 100's that has wrecked there!!!!
I have got to get in the shower, I am hot, dirty and look like a Palomino pony I have so much stain on me!!!!
