Things....Learned....From the Week-end .....that was...

In this small,  southern,  college town.......

Summertime....is here.   Afternoon thundershowers.....temperatures in the low 90's......humidity up near 100%.......and the flies.....oh the flies.

And it is still only the middle of May.   Summer does not officially arrive until June 21.   Go figure.

Monday asks that question.   Are we smarter today?  Did we learn .....anything?   From the Weekend?

Well........here's what we at 5 on Five learned......with the help of a few of our friends:


The Atlanta Braves.......are not as bad........as we thought they were:

Atlanta Braves (18-19)

Last game: May 16, Atlanta Braves 13 - Arizona Diamondbacks 1 
Next game: vs. New York Mets, May 17 7:10pm ET 
www.braves.com
 
 The Bravos took 2 of 3 from Arizona and have now won 10 out of their last 15 games. 



The Boston Celtics........maybe old......they maybe tired.....but ......they could....beat the Magic:

Boston Celtics (50-32)

Last game: May 16, Boston Celtics 92 - Orlando Magic 88 
Next game: @ Orlando Magic, May 18 8:30pm ET 
www.nba.com
 
 
 
 
 
Things......I think ...I think:
 
The NBA Play-offs......lasts way....too long.
6eVoice.....and GaPeach913  (bro & sis).......just got back from a 7 day  cruise...with their significant others.......I am a bit .....jealous.
 
My daughter,  Madison....has 2 more days of teaching school.....before her summer vacation....again....I am a bit ......jealous.
 
I just don't ......have the energy ...or time.....to mow my own lawn anymore.
Why do 18 wheelers.......continue to get in the fast lane...attempting to pass....and can only get up to 65 mph?

So.......it's a Monday......Are you smarter?

NBC's Dreadful Ending

From GaPeach 913......

Parting shots.....on the 2010 Winter Olympics:


NBC awkwardly and abruptly ends Olympic coverage

How did NBC choose to end its 865 hours of Winter Olympic coverage? By barely acknowledging that said coverage was ending.
In a bizarre conclusion to its telecasts of the 2010 Vancouver Games, NBC awkwardly cut away to air the premiere of the much-hyped reality show, "The Marriage Ref." Viewers were abruptly informed that coverage of the Ceremony would continue at 11:30 p.m. ET.
Here's how it went down: At 10:29 p.m. ET, the network abruptly cut to commercial after singer Michael Buble finished a swinging, Sinatra-like rendition of "The Maple Leaf Forever". After a few ads, NBC cut back to a wide shot of the ongoing Ceremony (there were a number of inflatable animals on the floor at BC Place, making it look like an indoor version of the Macy's Day Parade) and viewers heard Bob Costas say:
"We're back in an hour with the Closing Ceremony party from Vancouver. Nickleback and Avril Lavigne are among the acts that will be performing. But right now we take you to the premiere of Jerry Seinfeld's new series, 'The Marriage Ref.' "
And then, suddenly, coverage of the Olympics was over and the intro to Jerry Seinfeld's show began.
All that NBC does in over-dramatizing the Games and that's how they choose to end coverage for a vast majority of viewers? (Because, let's face it, most people aren't tuning in for the 11:30 p.m. coverage.) No Costas sign-off? No end credits? No cheesy summation of the triumphs of the Olympic spirit? Where's our closure?

The End.......For Iverson?

Could this ...be the end of an era......for Allen Iverson?

Seems ......Steven A. Smith thinks so:

Stephen A. Smith: Say goodbye to Allen Iverson

It's over.
The tears. The jogging out to midcourt at the Wachovia Center to kiss the floor to raucous, rabid applause. The crackling voice, filled with gratitude and appreciation for an organization that said, "You can come home again." It all ended for Allen Iverson yesterday afternoon when the 76ers announced that, arguably, the greatest player in franchise history would be out "indefinitely" because of his daughter's illness - undoubtedly ending The Answer's career in Philadelphia.

For the entire article.........click the link below:
Say goodbye to Iverson



So sad.......our condolences.......to GaPeach913.......

Rev. Al..........To the Rescue.......But for Who?


From  GaPeach913:

Al is keeping it black!


Al Sharpton Blasts Tiger Woods for Lack of Mistress Diversity

The Rev. Al Sharpton held a press conference today to blast Tiger Woods for the lack of diversity among his mistresses. Sharpton claims that the lack of African-American women among Woods’ harem will have a negative affect on the black community, specifically young black girls.

“Why is it that a man who calls himself black can’t bring himself to cheat on his wife with a black woman?” said Sharpton, speaking to a group of supporters in Harlem. “What does it say to young black girls everywhere when you pass them over? Shame on you, Tiger Woods. What would your daddy say?”

Sharpton, who has long championed taking black women as mistresses, said that today’s black athletes need to stop neglecting black women when it comes to extramarital affairs, and should follow the examples of positive black role models such as Jesse Jackson and Martin Luther King, Jr., both of whom cheated on their wives with black women. Sharpton also stressed that cheating with African-American women would help the black community financially by giving black girls the chance to sell their stories to tabloids and gossip magazines.

Added Sharpton, “I’m not asking you to not cheat on your wives, I’m just asking you to give back to your own community.”

Stand by Your Man.......PGA Style......

This is just....plain old...mean!

But it is quite funny...

From GaPeach913:




And now.....the "Tiger jokes" circulating the net:

What’s the difference between a car and a golf ball? Tiger can drive a ball 400 yards.


Elin found out he’s not a Tiger, he’s a Cheetah.


Tiger just hates it when he drives, and then his balls hit a tree. 


Elin Nordegren got hired today as a consultant. She’s teaching Phil Mickelson how to beat Tiger. 


Tiger’s confused. Every other time he made a hole-in-one, everyone was all happy about it.


Tiger said the fault of the accident was his Escalade. It’s typical of a golfer—always blame the caddy. 



Tiger’s car still runs, but it goes “putt, putt, putt…”


What do baby seals and Tiger Woods have in common? Both were clubbed by a Scandanavian.


Tiger Woods is so rich that he owns lots of expensive cars. Now he has a hole in one


Tiger Woods is tree under.



What was Elin Nordegren doing at 2:30 in the morning? She was clubbing.


Tiger Woods has been dropped by Gilette after admitting this incident was his closest shave ever.   


And the jokes just....keep going...and going...and going..

Halloween Funnies...

It's October......so ....it must be near Halloween....

From GaPeach913.....

Enjoy:


MY EX-WIFE THE PILOT

My ex-wife sta
rted taking flying lessons about the time our divorce started, and she got her license shortly before our divorce was final, later that same year.

Yesterday afternoon I got a phone call, that she narrowly escaped injury in the aircraft she was piloting. Seems she was forced to make an emergency landing in Hamilton because of bad weather. Thank God the kids weren't with her.

The FAA issue
d a preliminary report, citing pilot error. She was flying a single engine aircraft in IFR (instrument flight rating) conditions while only having obtained a VFR (visual flight rating).

The absence of a post-crash fire was likely due to insufficient fuel on board. No one on the ground was injured.

The photograph below was taken at the scene to show the extent of damage to her aircraft.



She was really lucky.







Happy Halloween

Thoughts.....on a Friday....



In this southern college town.....

It's a balmy 70 degrees.......and sunny. Spring is slowly deciding to join us. After playing "hard to get" for about thirty days........Spring......is about ready to put aside the cold, wintry persona........the iciness of old man winter himself..........those unpredictable March winds.....and those powerful April showers that turned into April storms..........And after quite a few really cold April mornings..........

Spring.....has just about.....sprung........and is just about ready to warm up to all of us.

It's about.......damn time!

It's ..........the week-end folks........and all is well!!!






Happy Trails.......John Madden......

You retired from broadcasting NFL games........You were the best. An original. The best thing for the sport since Howard Cosell ......The young folks don't even realize you were .....at one time ....a Super Bowl winning coach of the Oakland Raiders........many moons ago.

They see "Madden 09".........the video game........But.......we knew you then.....

And you will be missed..........

And you left on your terms......as you did when you left coaching.....We admire you.....go.....do what Mr. Madden........wants to do.

You........have earned that right.




In the, "Wait.....he's younger than me!!!!" department.........

Boston Celtic General Manager, Danny Ainge.......you know him.....his wheeling and dealing helped produce a Boston World Championship last year..........

Well........yesterday, Danny........boy wonder..........had a heart attack........medically speaking...mild.......but still a heart attack.

His age?

50!!!!!!!!!! Yes , fiddy ............Five-O........


Which makes him younger than the trifecta here at 5 on Five..... Much..... y
ounger than 6eVoice......and younger than yours truly and GaPeach913......(Actually 6eVoice is only 2 years our senior....but it sounded good).

But this really makes you stop..........think.......and listen...

It's about time to start taking care of our bodies........exercising.......working out.....eating right...you know ........all those things.......we ditched.....when we turned 25.

Yearly check-ups........kicking bad habits.......(does this include smoking?)

We all need to take a deep reality check.......(You guys and gals go first)


Have a great........T.G.I.F.

Brother .......to .......Brother.......

From GaPeach913........



A very Powerful picture from Barrack Obama's trip to Britain, the picture says it all….

BROTHER TO BROTHER...


You go boy! He is sooo cool. According to one commentor, "This is the most powerful photo in the series. Remember that British Royal custom, and both U.S. and British security procedure dictate that they are not supposed to talk, touch, or shake hands, but the two brothers couldn't resist the historic moment. The Black Royal cop never imagined in his wildest dream that he would usher a Black American president into the British corridors of power. Nice."

Testimonials.......think...before you....speak.....


From our own.......GaPeach913.....

Enjoy...

FIRST TESTIMONY:

I walked into a hair salon with my husband and three kids in tow
and asked loudly, 'How much do you charge for a shampoo and a blow
job?'

I turned around and walked back out and never went back.

My husband didn't say a word... he knew better.

SECOND TESTIMONY:

I was at the golf store comparing different kinds of golf balls. I was
unhappy with the women's type I had been using.

After browsing for several minutes, I was approached by one of the
good-looking gentlemen who works at the store.

He asked if he could help me. Without thinking, I looked at him and
said, 'I
think I like playing with men's balls'

THIRD TESTIMONY:

My sister and I were at the mall and passed by a store that sold
a variety of candy and nuts.

As we were looking at the display case, the boy behind the counter
asked if
we needed any help.. < br> I replied, 'No, I'm just looking at
your nuts..'

My sister started to laugh hysterically. The boy grinned, and I turned
beet-red and walked away.

To this day, my sister has never let me forget.

FOURTH TESTIMONY:

While in line at the bank one afternoon, my toddler decided to
release some pent-up energy and ran amok.

I was finally able to grab hold of her after receiving looks of disgust and
annoyance from other patrons. I told her that if she did not start
behaving
'right now' she would be punished.

To my horror, she looked me in the eye and said in a voice just as
threatening, 'If you don't let me go right now, I will tell Grandma
that I
saw you kissing Daddy's pee-pee l ast night!'

The silence was deafening after this enlightening exchange. Even the
tellers
stopped what they were doing.

I mustered up the last of my dignity and walked out of the bank with
my
daughter in tow. The last thing I heard when the door closed behind
me, were
screams of laughter.


FIFTH TESTIMONY:

Have you ever asked your child a question too many times?

My three-year-old son had a lot of problems with potty training and I
was on
him constantly. One day we stopped at Taco Bell for a quick lunch in
between
errands.

It was very busy, with a full dining room. While enjoying my taco, I smelled
something funny, so of course I checked my seven-month-old daughter,
and she
was clean. Then I realized that Danny had not asked to go potty in a
while. I
asked him if he needed to go, and he said 'No'.

I kept thinking, 'Oh Lord, that child has had an accident, and I
don't have
any clothes with me.' Then I said, 'Danny,
are you SURE you didn't have an accident?'

'No,' he replied. I just KNEW that he must have had an accident,
because the smell
was getting worse..

Soooooo, I asked one more time, 'Danny did you have an accident? This
time he
jumped up, yanked down his pants, bent over, spread his cheeks and
yelled, 'SEE MOM, IT'S JUST FARTS!!'

While 30 people nearly choked to death on their tacos laughing, he
calmly
pulled up his pants and sat down.

An old couple made me feel better, thanking me for the best laugh
they'd ever
had!


LAST, BUT NOT LEAST, TESTIMONY:

This had most of the state of Michigan laughing for 2 days and a
very embarrassed female news anchor who will, in the future, likely
think
before she speaks.


What happens when you predict snow but don't get any! We had a female
news
anchor that, the day after it was supposed to have snowed and didn't,
turned
to the weatherman and asked:

'So Bob, where's that 8 inches you promised me last night?'

Not only did HE have to leave the set, but half the crew did too they
were
laughing so hard!

Ha ha..........

Things ....From the Week-end....Learned & More


Just an e-mail folks.....

This photo came via GaPeach913........It is a very sexy looking piece of meat. I just wonder how good it tastes.


I quit..........


As in trying to pick the outcome of college and pro football games......In our "Friday Picks".....We went for it all..........picking 10 games.......Well, we went 4-6.......against the spread...Vegas wins .......again! We were 2-3 with the college guys and 2-3 with the pros. At least we were consistent with our losses. That gives us a season ending record of 36-33-1..........Still above water.......but not enough to make sufficient money.

Happy trails........Greg Maddox...

The "Mad dog" retired today........he with the 355 wins........he ......a future Hall of Famer.......the greatest actual "pitcher" I have ever seen.

Happy trails.......Oscar De La Hoya........

You .......my friend .....got a beat down on Saturday........You looked old and slow. Time to hang 'em up.

Remember when?

When companies gave out Christmas bonuses........and sprung for the annual Christmas party? Thing of the past. Not in the budget this year...........

Welcome aboard..........Mike Locksley........

The University of New Mexico announced the hiring of former Illinois offensive coordinator, Mike Locksley as their new head coach. Yes........a black man.....one of four.......African-Americans to lead a major college football program........Good luck, Mike.

Joke of the Day


We got this off an email.....

Courtesy.......GaPeach913.....

Read.......and .....smile:


It is hard to find a joke today without a dirty word or two in it, but, here is one:

Two tall trees, a birch and a beech, are growing in the woods.
A small tree begins to grow between them, and the beech says to the birch,
'Is that a son of a beech or a son of a birch?'
The birch says he cannot tell.

Just then a woodpecker lands on the sapling.
The birch says, 'Woodpecker, you are a tree expert.
Can you tell if that is a son of a beech, or a son of a birch?'

The woodpecker takes a taste of the small tree. He replies,
'It is neither a son of a beech nor a son of a birch. It is, however,
the best piece of ash I have ever put my pecker in.'
