Holy Frak!!! Time to Place Your Bets.

Alright toaster-lovers, this is your last chance to state for the record who you think is the final Cylon.

I am 85% sure of my guess but I will post it in the comment section in case anyone doesn't want to hear people's theories.

Time to put your reputation on the line.

WHO IS THE FINAL CYLON?

Are you chicken?

A New Tradition Is Born

Growing up in the Commonwealth of Kentucky there are certain things that seep into your consciousness. One of those tidbits of Kentucky Basketball knowledge is that Dan Issel was the man. Since he played for Kentucky from 1966 to 1970, obviously I never saw him play but growing up here you knew the name. You also knew that his 53 points scored in a single game was one of those records that would probably never be broken in the modern era. A holdover, if you will, of a simpler time. So the name of Dan Issel was kept alive down generations of Kentucky Wildcat fans that had no direct knowledge of his skill.

My children and grandchildren will know a different name.

That name is Jodie Meeks.

Last night Jodie Meeks scored 54 points against Tennessee on the Volunteers home court. This was not a game that I believe many pragmatic Kentucky fans thought we would win.

Not only did we win; but Jodie Meeks put on the most impressive display of basketball prowess I have ever seen.

Congratulations Jodie. You have now become a legend. And I am thankful that I was a witness.

HAVE I GOT A DEAL FOR YOU!!!!!

On a Disney forum that I frequent in order to plan our upcoming trip, there is an area for discussions of any kind. Currently there is a thread wherein a bunch of conservatives are scared to death that once Obama takes office, gas is going to sky rocket to over $7 a gallon. So I thought I would take advantage of the situation and make them an offer they can't refuse. Here it is.

For those of you worried that gas will hit $7 a gallon once Obama is sworn in, HAVE I GOT A DEAL FOR YOU!!!!!!

Between now and January 15 (going to Disney so that will be the deadline) I will sell you credits for gasoline at the reasonable price of only $5 A GALLON!!!!! So when gas rockets up to over $7 a gallon, you can be comfortable in knowing that you locked them in for the bargain basement price of ONLY $5 A GALLON!!!!!.

I will draw up a contract wherein you send me any receipts for gas between January 20 and January 31, and I will reimburse you whatever it is you had to pay up to the number of credits you purchase.

Remember this is a limited time offer, SO YOU NEED TO ACT NOW!!!

BUT WAIT THERE IS MORE!!! If you purchase at least 1000 gallon credits, I will throw in for no charge, a time share interest in the historic Brooklyn Bridge. You read that right, for each 1000 gallon credits you purchase, you will receive a 1% ownership stake in this world renowned landmark. BUT HURRY!!! These timeshare credits will go fast!

BUT WAIT THERE IS MORE!!! For the first five customers, we are offering for the bargain rate of $1000 an acre, your very own PIECE OF THE MOON!!! You heard that right. For a mere $1000 an acre, our real estate department will deed you a prime location upon the Moon. But this offer is limited to the first five customers.

Send me a private message NOW!!!! Operators are standing by.


We will see if I have any takers.

I am a sore loser. So what?

While watching the Kentucky-Louisville game tonight I noticed someone wearing the t-shirt you see below. Pay particular attention to the typo.


I took the liberty of fixing it for him.
