Ole Miss Tomorrow


While Tennessee spends this weekend resting up for the big meeting next Saturday with the Dawgs in Knoxville my guys are butting heads with the Ole Miss Rebels.
I heard a commentator on the radio this morning call them “OLD” Miss. She was not trying to be snarky or funny she just actually assumed it was “OLD” Miss. She [...]

The possibilities…..


are endless!
This is the kind of thing that makes you glad that you are just an aging man with a high school education and a perpetual sense of wonder.

Glorious Autumn


I got up this morning to not only be sure the TiVo was recording a replay of last nights glorious win in Tuscaloosa but to also usher in the first day of fall.
The first day of fall is really when we should all have a tree up and buy each other gifts. It is the [...]

Winning in Afghanistan


Give that guy a medal!

For the record, 276.4


I had to look back at last months post to see if I had lost any weight at all this month.
.3 pounds! But honesty is the best policy and there was a time or two I saw the plus side of 280 again this month. But I am still scratching and clawing and telling myself [...]

T.G.I.F.


Made it through another week and got another paycheck. That will keep the wolves at bay for another week anyway.
Tennessee vs Florida this weekend. I can’t wait. It only happens once a year when a Georgia fan can watch his two most hated teams pound on each other for an afternoon.
Then it is on to [...]

Bumper Sticker Philosophy

Coexistence is our only option. And I will always believe that we can learn to do it.
I am going to do my best to do [...]

Job


Sunday - 9:30 - Unitarian Universalist Church of Chattanooga
The book is Job, and I’ve gotta say I’m terribly excited about it. I hope anyone from the area who can make it to this session of Rediscovering the Bible, will make it. Those who can’t, religious or no, I hope you’ll take a while and re-read [...]

9/11


It is hard to believe it has been 6 years (72 house payments) ago.
I was sitting in my office when a co-worker called and asked if I had the television on. Normally turning the television on was the first thing I did in order to keep up with the news of the day. For whatever reason [...]

An eternal sunset


I just watched the sunset in Hanle, India.
Thanks Alice.
One of these mornings I am going to watch the sun come up out my window while watching it go down on my monitor.
I read once that you never have to worry about the end of time because it is always tomorrow somewhere.
Speaking of tomorrow, I hope you [...]
