I know in certain jobs that working from home can reasonably be done, but it is a foreign concept to me. Every job I have ever had required me to be there, mowing or breaking gardens when younger, working in a car wash, working whatever needed to be done in a bowling alley, carrying a weapon for Uncle Sam, and operating a steam plant. Even as an owner, I waited on and loaded customers and if there were no customers, I did whatever needed to be done. Not disparaging someone who can work at home, it's just hard for me to relate.

Good morning from ATX. Currently 68°F and cloudy. Clearing later. Expecting 79°F for our high. Wearing shorts again today. Turning colder over the weekend.
Happy Friday, y'all.
Plan on chowing down on some below for lunch.

My neighbor's dog woke me up at 4 AM. This is the 3rd time in about the last 7 or 8 days. Grrrrr. I'm an early bird, but not a happy camper now.

Good morning folks. Hope all is well. Busy day already for me. Warming up in the east, so that's a pleasant change.
Talked to my son last night. Not only is he not going to get to start the new position he'd been hired for inside the Department of Interior (a small, elite team with special skills that travel to federal parks and properties to do necessary improvements and upgrades) but now his boss is telling him that they may be forced to close the federal fishery in Texas where he works.
I hope that doesn't happen. They are actually doing lots of valuable work in the rivers of the region, and helping feed people on Indian reservations and Army bases.
Have a good day folks.

Hello all,
Not at the job today. Just saw the below and thought it would be a good share...

Love him or hate him, Pitino takes down UConn. The man can coach.
^ Yeah, watched Ricky P and St. John's last night. They can hoop it up.
Good morning from ATX. Currently 68°F and cloudy. Today's high expected around 83°F.

Good morning everyone
If you haven't seen it yet, Robinson is listed as questionable for today's game along with Butler.
I'll be watching. A loss to SC even without 3 players would be bad. Surely we''ll be ready.

Good morning folks. Being lazy on Saturday. It was a long, challenging work week.
Cats have a game that should be an easy win. But Butler AND Robinson questionable. Oh boy.
Not much else happening so.I'll wish you all well and check in later.

If Butler and Robinson are out do we start Perry? We have to, right? It would be a soul breaker to him if not.
Well done Cats! Nice to have Butler back.
Nice to see Cats with a win.
Very enjoyable win. Go Big Blue!
Hi all,
Didn't post until after the game. Not "stuperstishes" either ...
Go CATS!!!

Butler is huge on both D and O.
Glad ku lost as well.. Keep it up Cats!!!
Absolute brutal final 8 games including #1 Auburn, #3 Alabama, #4 Tennessee and #15 Missouri. Plus Vandy, Oklahoma and Texas. The only breather is LSU.
I think Auburn is going down! Bamit too...
Totally agree.... Those men had wars in the ring...
Good win for the Cats. The Auburn assholes lose to Florida. Miss State beats UGA playing against 8.
The stats for the UK game makes one scratch his head. USC got 23 free throws to UK's 13. USC charged with 14 fouls to UK's 20.
THE GAME WAS PLAYED AT RUPP!
Duke goes down to Clemson! 77-71, that is worse than UK at Clemson!

Seems Sir, UK should start penalizing improper referring. Should be ways to effect that in Rupp at least. Seems money is involved so remove some dough in areas that will ensure better consideration by the "powers" that be....
Good morning from ATX. Currently 55°F and cloudy. High may reach 62°F.
Yeah, glad Cats won. Remaining schedule looking like a beast. Go Big Blue!
Wishing y'all a peaceful Sunday.

From 1977 through 1984 I was in close contact with Joe B. Hall. I would help him recruit et.al. Often I would go to games and he would give me tickets to sit with other folks. Several times I watched games with C. M. Newton and other SEC guys.
At one game Joe game me a seat with the SEC Head of Officials John Guthrie. He held that office for 25 years. There was an egregious call against a Kentucky player. I yelled and John laughed. I asked if he had seen the egregious call and he said yes, but any bad call against Kentucky was a good call.
That is just the way it is in SEC basketball.
I was in HS during those years. Why didn't you recruit me? I know UK could have used a 5'9, 135# hustler. I would have been a good replacement for Chis Gettlefinger.
I haven't done a schedules comparison, but as deep as the SEC is I'd guess every team's remaining schedule is brutal or close to it.
Good late morning folks.
Nice win for the Cats yesterday. No guarantees in the SEC.
Also nice: Indiana, Kansas, Duke and Arkansas all lost. UNC-Cheats won by a point or two at home against a mediocre Pitt, or the day would have been nearly perfect from a hoops perspective.
It was not a pristine performance by the Cats, which is in its own way encouraging. Injuries have really hurt this team. With Butler back, and Carr getting a bit more into playing shape, this team has got to mid-February without reaching its ceiling.
I'd love to see 5-3 the rest of the way. I think that's possible if no more injuries. When the new Top 25 is released this week, Kentucky will be 3-1 against Top FIVE teams, with a close loss to #1 Alabama and wins over FLorida, Tennessee and Duke. That's pretty impressive.
Enjoy the Super Bowl folks. Go Eagles, I suppose.

Have to say Sir then... P_SS on SEC basketball... UK needs to start cutting minimal checks and see how they act then...

Any of the D remember Super Bowl Sunday in 1987? One of the best performances of a college basketball player I've ever seen!!
I may be wrong but that had to be the greatest defensive display in a half in Super Bowl history. Also, didn't care for the singing of the national anthem. Maybe I'm biased being a Kentuckian but Chris Stapleton's version was one of the best.
Commercials? Miss the old days.

Can't remember. Living in Seattle back then. Was there a UK game on that day? Other basketball game?
