Pope sings happy birthday to fan after Florida win
I watched a show today on Mysteries at the Museum, it was about the MILITARY, it was about of all things, silly string! A Soldier on his first deployment in Iraq, he was assigned with a squad clearing a building and was starting through a door, one of them stopped him, told him to wait, the guy pulled out a can of silly string and sprayed it in front of them, it revealed a trip wire! Have any of our VETERANS in here ever heard of this? There's more to the story than just this, just interesting!
Silly string wasn't invented till after I got out. I read about it, but I will let those who were in Iraq talk about it.
Good morning from ATX. Currently 30°F, clear and cold. Light wind from the north. Today's high forecast at 47°F.
Cats vs Dawgs tonight. Game at 6 CT. Go Big Blue!
Bundling up and headed out for a walk soon.
Wishing y'all a great day.

Nope, but I like it.
IT'S GAME DAYEEYAYEEAYEEYAY!
18° this morning with moderate winds. Feel is -7° or so the weather site says. Nowhere to go today other than the workout and monster walk so...
Finished the chili last night that my wife made on Saturday. Next up, beef stew for these cold days and nights.
You folks stay warm and dry (snow) and be careful out there.
God Bless the D-League.
Good morning folks.
It has stopped snowing in the east. Temps around 15f. Our road still not plowed but I was able to get the SUV up our hill, which was a near miracle.
Game day for the Cats. A tough road test, and Brea may be out according to RR…

Good morning all,
Took my youngest to work on Fort Belvoir earlier this morning she is EE. Felt better driving her though I thought she'd have been okay today. She has a RAV4 and it is AWD. Still icy as can be though. I felt better...
Got home and one of my grandaughters was here as well. Her Mom brought her here today in stead of her day care. Not sure why. I think it was open...
Was shoveling a lot yesterday. Took care not to overdo but darn.

No garbage pick-up for us this week due to the snow/ice storm. Our garbage is already full to the receptacle's brim. Guess we'll have to store the excess in our garage until Monday. Don't want the critters to make a mess of things.
Sine no takers, from reading only, the silly string is light enough to not set off the trip wire and if you see it does not fall all the way to the floor, you know a wire is likely there.
Cats vs. Dawgs tonight
Kentucky is -1.5 favorite. (Worth noting Florida is a -3.5 point favorite at home tonight against #1 Tennessee. Go Gators)
We all know how SEC officiating can be, especially on the road. I hope Brea plays.
Georgia has a win at home against St. John's. Other than that no real quality wins, haven't played a tough schedule. Lost by 11 to Marquette on a neutral floor and just lost by 12 on the road to Ole Miss.
One thing I like about this game that I liked to going into the Florida game. I always like when my team has played a much tougher schedule than our opponent. Can't wait for these games now. Pope has brought that back to the program. Go Cats!

the BLUF on Cats and Dogs...
UK is flat tonight. Officiating is horrible. Too many missed open shots. At least Butler came to play. Cats have a tough time against physical teams.
Terrible 1st half. Come on Cats!!
Cyril would have been a force at UK. Inside game really bad tonight.
I'm not one that usually complains about officiating but this is bad. Tough to win on the road in the SEC. Florida is annihilating UT. Come on Cats. Got it down to 5 and then right back up to 12.
Watching UGA shoot free throws all night is brutal. Shake if off Cats and get ready for an even tougher road game Saturday.
45 fouls called in the game. The officials went the monitor to look at something like 8 times. Quickly turned it into a completely unwatchable game.
In 2 SEC games our opponents have shot 73 free throws, 30 more than we have.

Don't know if anyone cares what umps make, but I was talking to a guy today who has a cousin that umpires baseball. He had risen in the pro ranks to AAA minors. He quit because he felt DEI was promoting people over him. He said he was making 750 a game in AAA (plus expenses I guess). He lives near Chicago and took a job doing Big Ten games at 1,000 a game. I guess he gets to be home more umping college to.
Good morning from ATX. Currently 34°F and cloudy. Chilly and windy. We may warm to 43°F
House of horrors down in Athens last night. Ugh!
Happy Hump Day.

Good morning folks.
I think the book is out on the Cats —ugly up the game, keep going inside, force the bigs to defend deep into the clock and make it as physical as possible. UK is not equipped to win a game like that this year. Maybe Pope can make adjustments but the personnel just isn’t there on the roster.
Still freezing in the east. The snow has hardened into piles of ice as hard as concrete.
Hang in there folks.

Records achieved in doubleheaders are likely to stand for a very long time.
The game sucked. The officials sucked.
UK is not top ten in my book even though we have three top ten wins.

Hello All,
Been busy from my office. Snuck out of going to the swamp today. Plenty to do. Lots of white stuff. I am thankful...
