Well, I went in, filled out a survey, ate free breakfast, and then was informed I was being released early. I spent another half hour reading a magazine while they processed a couple of things. Then they came in and handed me my parking validation and a $100 check, for an hour and twenty minutes of doing basically nothing. Now I intend to unapologetically sit on my ass and watch basketball all afternoon.
Good work if you can get it.
You suck.
Alrighty then. We are enjoying(?) the same activity.
You suck. I'll blow. We'll balance out.

I never had my hopes up anyway. WVU is a solid team, and Climpsun has been faceplanting like this for 15 years now.
On a brighter note, Morehead State has a nice early (
very early) lead on Luhvul.

I just consumed a delicious reuben sandwich, and am now enjoying the last beer.
Next, I will quickly travel to the grocery, where I will purchase more beers for enjoyment during today's remaining hardwood action.
And lottery tickets.

The state of Georgia thanks you for your generous contribution to the education of so many.
It's the most fun a dollar will buy.

Actually, it'll be three or four dollars...I always buy multiples. May as well; it's up to $201 million, and someone has to win eventually.
I will definitely derive $3-4 worth of pleasure from daydreaming about what I'd do with all that
scarole.

And also, the Hope Scholarship is in pretty serious financial trouble these days, so it's the least I can do to pitch in a few bucks so some of the kiddies can go to college.

Mojo, if we keep this up for a while, we're gonna put a pretty serious dent in the march to 100,000 today.

I was beginning to think the same thing. But damn, I am starting to get sleepy. The combination of a turkey sandwich and oafish Clemson/WVa BB is starting to knock me out. I want to see the tiggers come back but I think I've goota check out Butler/OD.

Yeah, I'm gonna have to head out in a bit to get more beer. Planning to zip out as soon as the Clemson game ends, so I can get back in time to catch the end of Butler-ODU.
God, I love this four-day stretch that just began.
And as I typed this, the Mountaineers ran the lead back out to 9 with two straight steals. Ballgame.

Man, am I glad those people sent me home this morning. There have been several
great games already. Here's hoping Princeton will cooperate in creating the same in the second half against Kanta-kee.

I love reubens, I have enough meat to make one more sandwich..but still a bunch of rye bread. That's ok..rye goes well with anything.

The reuben has long been one of my favorite sandwiches. It's kind of a thing in my family...we get a taste for them and make a corned beef 4 or 5 times a year.

I think CB&B should get the honor when we do hit it.
