I do as well, and admit to wondering where all of that went this Month. . .  :biggrin:

Monsoon season is upon us. . .

Let the mud-season begin.


  • Please conduct visual inspection of all PFD's and include the prerequisite fit testing prior to stowing them in their proper locations for quick use.
  • Remove all barn / muck boots and footwear from the outbuildings and backs of closets, properly clean and condition them, check them for spiders and other insects that may have taken up residence therein, and perform prerequisite leak testing before placing them into their seasonal use locations.

This concludes this public service announcement. . .

A little forum history lesson is in order here. Sandy Eggo is a Duke fan. I'm a huge Maryland Terps fan (I went there.)

We used to jab at each other all the time during March Madness. Especially when Maryland beat Duke! It doesn't matter whether it men's or women's basketball.

It's duke vs. MARYLAND!  :icon_twisted:
I quit following women's basketball when Pat Summitt retired. Now, she was a great coach. I am a Uni. of Louisville men's basketball fan. I can't stand Calipari.

Pat Summitt was maybe the greatest college coach of all time - men or women. I never cared much for Calipari either.

Now Brenda Frese may someday be ranked up there close to Pat Summit if she keeps at it long enough.

The folks in Celoron, N.Y., Lucille Ball's hometown, still love Lucy. They just hate the Lucy statue.

"I think it looks like a monster. That is just my opinion," the man behind a Facebook campaign calling for the life-size bronze statue of Ball, which was unveiled in a local park in 2009, to be replaced told Yahoo News. "When you see it at night, it is frightening."

Intended as a tribute to Ball, the statue has instead become a local lightning rod that according to the Buffalo News "reopened a political rift in the community that stretches back at least a decade."

Celoron Mayor Scott Schrecengost told the Jamestown Post-Journal that to recast the privately commissioned statue, the face of which bears little resemblance to the legendary comedienne's, would cost between $8,000 and $10,000.

"We're not going to spend taxpayer funds to get the statue replaced or repaired," he said.

Schrencegost told the Buffalo News that the local artist who created the Lucy statue has said no to his requests to make it more Lucy-like at no cost to the town.

"If he's the artist and the sculptor, you would think he would take some pride in his work and say, 'Yeah, that's probably not up to par and I should make it right,' " Schrecengost said. "But his last statement to me was, 'If nobody likes it and we don't like it, just take it down and put it in storage.'"

I guess I can't blame them for wanting it down.
