  1. Scott Turow just came out with his latest, which is to be the last novel featuring Sandy Stern, so brilliantly portrayed by Raul Julia I’m Presumed Innocent. Daniel Silva’s next Gabriel Allon book is due out in mid-July
  2. Rico helps his dad farm. It may just be time to get the crops out, especially since it has just warmed up here in Northern Indiana
  3. Attended, yes.Confirmation that he graduated......not sure?😁
  4. When has Fran's program sent a player to the pros? The value to Iowa basketball may very well be greater if he were to go and get drafted this year. As it stands, who can Fran point to when recruiting kids and say, " I put (fill in the blank) in the league, and I can develop you the same way"? To Scott's point, I don't see Iowa, with or without Garza, making a Final Four run next year. If Fran can parlay Garza making it into the pros into bringing in recruits with higher aspirations, that would do wonders for the program, imo.
  5. https://www.wane.com/news/local-news/whitko-community-schools-to-hold-in-person-commencement-in-july/ Looks like Rico's school is going to be a trendsetter up here in NE Indiana.
  6. On my first bike ride this year, I was bit by a pit bull that was allowed to run loose by some people living in a rental. Dog was quarantined for 10 days at the local shelter as owners claimed that they couldn't keep it under control. Fortunately for me, the dog was not rabid. Owners have given the dog away. I still won't ride past the house as they have had other dogs they allow to run loose as well.
  7. Human hair and/or blood scattered on the soil will work
  8. Being optimistic. Just bought 4 tickets for the Colts-Packers game
  9. One of my favorite scenes ever was when the killed the guy in his hotel room and then folded the body into a suitcase so they could get out of the place. Even typing this gives me the creeps as I hear the bones snapping.
  10. A vile and a mole are similar in that they both tunnel and do damage to your lawn. Difference is mainly in appearance. A vole looks more like a mouse. A mole looks like a bat in the face
  11. 27 up nort here on Friday night. Waiting to buy flowers until it warms a bit. Moles are looking for grubs. Need to treat your lawn for them.
  12. Colts opt not to exercise Malik Hooker’s 5th year option. I know he’s been hurt some, but thought he played really well last year. I hope that the two sides can come to an agreement to keep him with the Colts for the duration.
  13. Not gonna let coronavirus stop the festivities 🥳
  14. You guys might think that this is stupid, but... My wife has got me hooked on Our Town, on HGTV. Great young couple who have made it their mission to renovate her small hometown of Laurel, Mississippi. Love their passion and love their desire to take a rundown and declining town and bringing it back to life. The talents they were both have are amazing. Great to see that this world, or at least this small part of it, is in awesome hands with the next generations.
  15. You forgot to mention that, to my knowledge, he’s the only pro football player ever to appear in pantyhose 🤓
  16. I am almost 63 so I was around and watched Super Bowl III. I don't remember so much the hype leading into the game about the Colts being favored so much. I am sure that was a major story line leading up to the game, though. I wonder if the reason many/most remember that game as the Namath guarantee game is because the media today focuses so much on that when they look back on that game and, frankly, there is nothing else in Namath's career as memorable as that guarantee, and how he backed it up with his play in that game. On the other hand, Shula's career high point absolutely was the undefeated season. Again, the media plays that up every year when the remaining living players get together to celebrate once the last undefeated team loses their first game. For an NFL historian, Shula's team losing when such overwhelming favorites might be his defining moment. But imo, for the average football fan the undefeated season is his claim to fame.
  17. https://www.foxnews.com/sports/don-shula-legendary-nfl-head-coach-dies RIP Coach Shula
  18. My neighbor ordered 10 tons of stone to rebuild his sea wall. Sounded like a lot to me but once it was delivered it really wasn’t. In fact, he just had another 10 tons dumped yesterday. I need about 75 feet of lakefront rebuilt and need to figure a way to calculate how much stone to order. Envisioning many wheelbarrow trips back and forth to move that much stone
  19. Bucs. What Bruce Arians did for the Colts while Pagano was sick is worth my allegiance to him. Will root for Arians as long as his team is not playing the Horseshoes
  20. Between her and Jonathan Banks, that’s two very talented actors
  21. I like the Winfield kid from Minnesota. Great player and great pedigree
  22. Out on my own. At that point of the morning, the only one out in a car was the newspaper delivery person, and they knew to watch for me. Just the peace and quiet....let me think, pray, figure stuff out. Loved the feeling when I was just about finished for the day...sense of accomplishment. Running also allowed me to eat a lot of calories, because I was burning so many off.
  23. I used to run 4-5 times a week. As I have an hour commute to work, I'd get up at 4:30ish to get my run in. Loved it. Two knee surgeries later and I am now a biker. Miss running with a passion
