Well, I missed a couple of easy ones but did contribute some answers (what's the scientific symbol for Mercury, what's antidisestablishmentarianism) that no one knew, so I guess I acquitted myself OK. We finished 2nd and made enough $ to cover our tip.Originally Posted by KSRBEvans
In Nashville yesterday where it was sunny and 70, thinking about how much fun BBN will have in Nashville next week. This morning where I live, 39 and sleeting.

I'm just one stomach flu away from my goal weight.
I'm still mixed up.
I took a three hour nap on Sunday. Did the time change?

Just a thought but are you really a UK fan if you pick UK to lose all the time?
It excites you when they lose.
Still chasing that hour that is lost.
Who?

Was hoping that was the winning last post!
That one lasted like, a minute!

*placeholder until I can think of something to put here. Still symptom-free? Nah, too morbid and depressing, and tempts fate. Maybe we’ll get hit by an asteroid today and this is actually the last post ever!

Some light reading: Station Eleven by Emily St. John Mendel. It tells the story of a world where 99.9% of humanity is killed by a virus called the Georgia Flu. The main characters are in the Great Lakes region.
OK, maybe read it after we're finished with the Coronavirus. But I read it a few years ago and it was really good.

I just placed a hold on it on my small little library. I didn't pay attention to the estimated time for it to be available, but it could be several months. Thanks for the recommendation. Looks like I'll be reading rather than watching sports events.
Did you read Alas, Babylon when you were in school? I had it assigned, and my kids did, too, but my wife did not. Along the same lines of this book.
^No but I'll check that out.
I've also not read The Stand, because 823 pages. That's a commitment.

It involves a fictional nuclear war and the aftermath. I really enjoyed it when I read it. My kids, not so much. Have heard it's hit or miss with people.
So without sports what are we going to talk about? Books? Contemplate the meaning of life? I’ve never really thought about what life would be like without sports, and so much of our culture and consumerism is based on it. Feels weird so far.
I would take a walk but it’s storming out :/

We're old guys. (Well, I am.) We'll talk about the weather, same as always.

You would think I could bust it on work, but I've been so unproductive today.
Could go the other way. I always worked harder to get a lot out of the way so I could get home quicker to watch certain games while recording others.
Now then, no reason to work harder to get extra stuff done, nothing to race home to watch or record.

So no tournament, no Keeneland. Lexington just went from one of the best places for spring in the whole country to decidedly boring.
And so far those infected with Wuhan flu don't even become zombies. Boring boring boring.
People keep asking if I'm back and I haven't really had an answer. But now, yeah, I'm thinkin' I'm back.
Jefferson Co. Public Schools (Louisville) are starting a three week spring break Monday. At least.

BG and Warren Co kicked the kids out for an extended spring break starting today. I think it is a 3 week break like Jefferson Co.

It’s raining again (sung to the tune of Its Raining Men).
Going to save time if we just post when it's NOT raining. lol.

“Before I leave I’d like to see our politics begin to return to the purposes and practices that distinguish our history from the history of other nations,
“I would like to see us recover our sense that we are more alike than different. We are citizens of a republic made of shared ideals forged in a new world to replace the tribal enmities that tormented the old one. Even in times of political turmoil such as these, we share that awesome heritage and the responsibility to embrace it.”
