Dr. Johnson called me around 4:30 today. He says that Bubba has colon cancer. We’re going to do a second biopsy tomorrow to be sure. This is crushing.

I’m as good once as I ever was
I’ve got a full plate today so I thought I’d share this from Thanksgiving. Currently the winningest dog on the circuit. Amazing animal. Breaking sports news video. MLB, NFL, NBA, NHL highlights and more.

There’s the highland Dutch and the lowland Dutch, the Rotterdam Dutch and the Irish.
Actually, the words I learned were “the goddamn Dutch and the Irish”. No matter. The point is, it’s been a drink drank drunk sort of week. My family is a little different, or a little more than different. What I like to refer to as the Family Massacre occurs...

All the pay I need comes shining through his eyes
Even though there’s a couple of great wine posts in the works, a lot of you know how sick Bubba has been, so I think a report is in order. I gave both dogs a meaty bone last Thursday. They loved them. I got a lot of work done while they were occupied. Hours...

‘Cause falling in love is a pilgrim’s sport
I have some wine reviews, but it was a long weekend so it’s going to take a few days to get them reconstructed written. I made the very critical mistake of giving the dogs fresh bones on Thursday. I am still paying for that this morning. Rita had a little issue Friday morning, the...

L’étendard sanglant est levé !
Today is Beaujolais Day. Tis the 3rd Thursday of November. Now long before the Japanese started bathing in the stuff I found my way to Nice, France. OK, I find the Japanese ridiculous. But I digress. Nice was one of the few places that we actually stopped for a while. We got in there...

That is pouring like an avalanche, coming down the mountain
Love the inbox. OTG send me this link. I promise you, underwriting at title companies have come to a stand still while title officers argue the esoteric nuances of this decision. Sadly, they’re the only ones that care. The structures were built landward of the mean-high-water line (that is, were built lawfully, and on...

Your mother was a hamster and your father smelt of elderberries
Now I’m starting to look like this commercial. Actually, it’s kind of funny how everyone who was alive back then remembers these commercials. I suppose they could be filed away under “Shit you’d never get away with today”. The bank sent me out to a property yesterday to see if the people had any...

Brad Pitt’s brother and a man on the run
It’s kind of funny about black eyes. No one will say anything about it. Except your friends. Everyone else acts like it’s not there. I can imagine it goes from “You must be an ass to get into a fight at your age” to “Oh you poor thing, who is beating up on you?”...

But you can’t see what those shades of gray keep covered
It really pisses me off all the people who pay lip service to Veteran’s day but then vote against real veteran’s interests. You know, the clowns that wrap themselves in the flag and then won’t acknowledge that the wars that they were so gunho to have some one else fight actually jack these young...
