Close, But NO Cigar





It was a donnybrook...the game last eve...as the Creighton Tigers beat the Ducks...in double overtime
...UO had it's chances...especially in the regular game...mistakes...a missed FT...it was exciting, yet frustrating...Creighton is the OTHER university in Nebraska...a private, Jesuit one...ah, does Gonzaga ring a bell?...they are loaded...and the gallant effort by the Ducks was awesome...but, in reality, it takes more than 1 and 1/2 scorers to win...they almost did...still, a marvelous turnaround to a very average season...as I led today with, 'Close, but NO cigar'...

The massacre in Moscow...the numbers have been elusive...what I am reading today, is 133...a horror for all...Putin is accusing everyone of it...of course he is...ISIS is claiming it...and I don't think he believes 'em...is this a political hit?...have no clue...

What is this story?...Kim Mulkey, the explosive head coach of the LSU Lady Tigers...they are Tigers, right?...is getting ahead of something that the Washington Post is to publish about her...so she says...must have been tipped off...'going to hire the best defense attorney she can find'...hey, call the bloke in Mara-Lago...he has used most of them...do not know what the accusation might be...but, I can guess it is back when she was at Baylor...

Woke (the other meaning) up today, with a rattle of people below us...it had been raining and very windy...during the night...thought it might be some street persons...alas, it was different..a marathon race...race?...event...they are all winners...but, can't they run these at like 10 am?...

Speaking of breakfast...I was, wasn't I?...what's your fav Sunday morning fixings?...today, I am making scrambled eggs with ham...cheese on top...with hash browns...some fruit...and whole wheat toast...I am getting hungry, as I write...

OK, now I will make you non-hungry...KFC is sporting a new thang...chicken with pizza on the top...what they call it, chizza?...something like that...sounds dreadful...

For Snooki...Creighton is Serra on steroids...whatever that means...

Russia fired more rockets into Ukraine yesterday...not that profound, BUT, one went over Polish territory...and that country is preparing for war with Putin...here we go...inevitable...

Dance music today...games I think have some oomph...Prez James Madison vs Duke...Yale vs SDSU...and the ladies, Nebraska (the other U there) vs Oregon St...Middle Tennessee vs Mulkey's LSU...

It's Sunday, so you guessed it...it's time for 'Stump the Horse'...ah, sorry, I borrowed that from the Kelly and Mark Show...the Monster Sudoku...
