NFL draft in the history book for 2023. Lesson to young people: Keep your act together and do not draw negative attention to yourself. Brice Young first pick first round with one BCS title and Heisman. Stetson Bennett, with two BCS titles, going in round four. Getting drunk, wandering around beating on people's doors and catching a Public Intoxication arrest will haunt you! Can we say Johnnie Menzel?

Yard work and rowing all wonky this week. Weather, work and life in general got in the way. 80+ next weekend better weather for mowing anyway.

Have a Great Week, Gentlemen!!

Never, and I mean NEVER, trust a fart!!

My dentist called me Friday. I had not been happy with the permanent bridge he had put in and want to know about "warranty" work to fix. He had to check with the lab blah blah blah. $400 to pop it out, new mold of shrunken gums, use spare parts to make a new one and put it back in. Other option is $7,000 for implants for that part of my mouth. Scheduling the cheaper option tomorrow.

Where I work is on the flight path for the turkey buzzards back and forth to Mexico. We have one old school water tower that is no longer used but since it is middle of town it is a great place for several microwave antennas and satellite dishes. It is also where the migrating birds frequently stop. They make a Hell of a lot of racket and lots o' buzzard poop. Since they are Federally protected you can't shoot them. The USDA has developed this little gizmo that sounds like a whistling firework with a small retort. Sunrise and sunset is usually when we have to go discharge these things trying to get them to move. You can ask my Chief how he learned this but step one is before you discharge the gizmo - make sure it is outside of your Tahoe!

I haven't for a couple of years. Tends to go all Stonewall Jackson in my colon. "You shall not pass" is great on the battlefield, not so great in the bathroom.

So I'm going back to the powdered calcium citrate in my morning coffee, I tolerated it well enough when I used it before but it's kind of a pain to deal with. Also will add a low dose of calcium citrate tablets spread through the day and see if Stonewall makes an encore.

Last week 195

This week 196.2

I think the worker's comp saga is finally almost at an end. I should have the last of the pay for the time I was out hurt on Friday. Only took two months and way, way too many phone calls. :rolleyes::cry: Also went to the worker's comp doc and was given a clean bill of health.

Got the estimate from the dentist and hit the ceiling. They want over $7000 (after insurance it's *only* $4600) with the warning that they could find more things wrong after the cleaning. Firstborn is out of the country so that's on hold.

40's and rainy here. No yardwork, even though it needs it. Robins keep trying to build a nest in the gazebo we put up last summer. Bird crap and debris all over the new patio table. I keep nocking it down, but they start all over again. Friday I put up some ugly bird spikes. The have not returned so far. I am going to try and make them removable so it does not look so bad after nesting season. Previously tried a plastic owl to deter the Grackles from crapping in our pool, but that didn't work well. Don't get me started on the deer eating everything in sight :-)

Good week to all!

Yardwork yesterday. Glad I did. One, it needed it after not being done in two weeks. Two, Mother Nature is off her meds again there. 70's yesterday doing the yard and wake up to lower 50's today and little rainy.

Have a Great Week, Gentlemen!!

Great weekend trip to Starkville! The "harness" of the mascot bulldog was passed to a younger dog. "Jak" had job for eight years. New dog "Dak" is named after who else but Dak Prescott! He was on hand for the event. The football team has potential for a good year and baseballers won two out of three games series against Ol' **** Wifey picked up a W2-G from Pearl River Sunday evening. Don't know who will have it worse today. me at work or her home with laundry.

Have a Great Week!!

Hi Don, I also have osteopenia but I'm told it's not uncommon. Do you take Calcium Citrate each day?
