My understanding is that snow plow drivers work essentially around the clock until the snow is gone. A few years ago, I did PT with the head maintenance guy at Asbury. Dude disappeared for a week during a terrible winter storm. When I next saw him, he said he'd been working 18-20 hours for days on end and sleeping in the cab of his truck to keep the campus open. Dude looked it, too.

A dude with a snow plow for his truck can flat rake this time of year. LFUCG trying to pay $16/hr may be part of the reason schools were closed so long.

* Eat shit, Nate Oats.

* The video bird feeder I got for my wife for Christmas has been absolutely clutch during the snow. The birds are clearly enjoying the free smorgasbord and my wife seems to love it. Best thing I've bought her since the pressure washer.

* In Houston this week, some cop killer shot the police dog that had him cornered in a dumpster. This being Texas, the police summarily killed him... and then dropped a helicopter into a parking lot for a Boost Mobile and airlifted the dog to an emergency vet.

The video looks like something out of Baghdad. Wild.

The TikTok ban decision should be released in 10 minutes, but I'd like to comment that our government looks like a clown show because of this.

• Congress overwhelmingly approved the ban due to evidence of significant security threats (which were not made public)
• But they put the ban in place for 1/17 as it would be the last working day of the current administration.
• The chicken shit Supreme Court waited until the last second to make a decision
• China bans Facebook, but we allow TikTok?
• Both Trump and Biden signaled that they will not enforce the ban either way (even though Biden signed off on it).

What kind of chickenshit government do we operate?

Is this a rhetorical question?

Yes, but bye-bye tiktok.

2-10 or 3-9 next season. It's the early-mid 90s UK sports scenario all over again. Football sucks and is well nigh unwatchable, and basketball is cookin'.

Severance back with a bang.

I know many of you are football honks, but it's SO much better to be a basketball school. With football, you can enjoy watching random games - both NFL and college - without having a rooting interest for one of the teams. Other than March Madness, I can't remember a time I watched a full college basketball game when Kentucky wasn't in it. It would make Jan / Feb extremely boring.

Unbridled optimism!

This is the way.

I love watching college basketball.

Brad?

Not sure. This was back during COVID and Kort was nuts about distancing, masks, etc. Our schedules just matched for a month or so of rehab and we would chitchat a bit.
