Hump Day News & Views

On this Wednesday afternoon..........

In this .......southern, college town.....the temperature has reached 80 degrees.....and .....it's March.

Only ten days ago......we were buried under a freak snow storm with 7 inches of the "pretty white stuff".

And .......we were without power..........satellite.........internet........and cell phone service.

But thanks to size D batteries.......transistor radios........blankets.......kerosene heaters.......we were able to make due.

Now it's time to get that garden ready......Will Mother Nature be kind.......this year?

The rotor-tiller is primed and ready........but .......am I?.....We will see.


In the news........things we're following:

No.......not again....... Another football league is going to try to challenge the NFL.....Have they not learned? The new one is the United Football League.....(UFL)..........

Green, Fassel, Haslett to coach in UFL (AP)

Former NFL coaches.......who could not cut it in the NFL........will now be coaches in this new league.

We give it six months........until it folds.


T. O. has a job.......

Boy that was quick.....No sooner than Terrell Owens was unceremoniously fired by the Dallas Cowboys.......the "I love me some me" man.....was hired .....by the Buffalo Bills.....A 1 year contract..........for a reported 6 million dollars.

Talk about a fish out of water? Buffalo? T. O.? It's like a Cadillac parked in an Alabama trailer park. Or better yet.....Paris Hilton........shopping in a Walmart....It just .......doesn't fit.

The "Diamond Dawgs" rock........

Yes.....I'm talking about those baseball bulldogs.....off to their best start ever........12-0.....and ranked number one in at least 2 polls. You all know........I have not been a fan of the "ping league".......(colleges use those annoying sounding aluminum bats).....but......these guys can really play some baseball. It's still early...........but .......I'm on that bandwagon.....

Are you ready for..........March Madness???????

I am...........We are..........get your brackets ready.......the time is a coming..........


Things.....I think ........I think.......


Daylight savings time ..........is here.....deal with it...(I'm trying to convince myself)....

When..........is the last time.......you..........or I.....have actually watched a movie...in a theater?

Someone..........real soon........will get up and slap.......Judge Judy........and we will all applaud.

The AJC (Atlanta Journal Constitution) is getting as thin as the ABH (Athens Banner-Herald)

Until Rush Limbaugh .....ever runs....or is ever elected to a governmental position.......he remains .... totally.......irrelevant ......

Things........I'm thinking........

Have a great.........Hump Day.
