Friday - a gray one- not quite black

Over a week since last post. All of us in the quarry need to throw some rocks.

Due to my negligence there is much to cover.

Nancy Pelosi causes flashbacks of "A Clockwork Orange". Can't turn my head from the screen. Feel like Malcolm McDowell and will present nausea symptoms when she comes on the TV. When can we bring back a large whitehaired lovable hack like Tip O'Neill?

Last comments on the demise of my beloved Orange. Many of my sport junkie compadres claim that coach should go. My plan is keep him recruiting, he is a master. Pass the game prep to Hopkins and see if he can avoid these let downs. We bring a top 20 team to the tourny every year and seem to underachieve. Not right to beat anyone up now during the "day after" humiliation but maybe we can tweak our responsibilities to reach the hallowed title again. Feels like a drive-in date and we only held hands.

From all reports we are all about to lose a treasured icon. Since Rebel Without a Cause in 1955 Dennis Hopper has led us on a path of deeply personal discovery. His roles have been diverse, creative and always powerful. In some cases he carried a lousy script on his personality alone. Prostate cancer is currently giving him a nasty ride.I for one will always remember "Blue Velvet" and Easy Rider". His legacy in film was dynamic. All the best Dennis!! get well soon. When the time does come the standard line "you will be missed" seems woefully inadequate.

From Ludicrous Rd.-- Islamic judges have ruled it illegal to post any comments relative to their policy of amputation on social internet sites. At the very least they should legislate tongue removal for such egregious acts. In fact we should all go onto FB and start a forum group on amputation. Of Course, per the clerics this will not just result in corporal punishment but likely hurt our chances for eternal rewards with virgins and such.. Oh Well..

Have a super weekend. Remember life is too short to have enemies.Laugh at least twice today. First one doesn't count. Curiosity didn't kill Tom but it sure made Jerry pissed off.
