Just tossing this on the board now, so I don't forget it later.

We're getting ready to lay down some concrete. If it snows tomorrow it's our fault.

Our state does not have much to identify with, other than the old cliché's of horses, bourbon, bluegrass, blah blah blah. I don't really care about those things, but I see people who struggle to just exist every single day. They have no hope or real concept of a better life. They just simply exist. But one thing gives them happiness this time of the year--that baskeball team. Let's hope they finish it out tomorrow night. It's more than just a sport around here. It's our history. I was in Rupp during the Florida and Alabama games this year. If you don't look at those banners and get goosebumps, there's something wrong with you.

Shane, I must admit I never really thought of it like you just explained, but you're right!

Doc, you put that PERFECTLY.

Sucks when someone finds out you're from KY and after a few hick jokes, asks if there's really a lot of horses here, blah blah blah...



I've been caught up in work this week. 98.25hrs for the week. 65 of those was 1 shift.

No it did not. UConn was certainly the better team last night. Their guards were great. Got to give'em credit.

Wes, it's nice to see you're working! Perhaps I missed it, but what are you doing now?

I got called in on a security assignment. Roughly 3 weeks of work or so; Maybe more.

Time restarted Sunday, and I'm already at 42.5 hrs this week...

Well I didn't see too many people standing on bridges getting ready to jump this morning. Free throws are NOT free. Regardless of whether there's any truth or not about Rex Chapman's tweet about Cal going to the Lakers, it was a punk-*** move for him to do that right before that game started. I guess he needs attention.

I guess I'm that "One guy" in all of KY that isn't into sports.

Never was a fan...lol
