McMillin's on the strip is closing - I didn't go in but I'd bet they're having a going out of business sale. Lots of UT stuff in there, I think.

The Redhead went to bed, and I had enough coffee and sweet tea today to give an elephant a heart attack.
I'm either going to read a full book, watch a couple of movies or ransack this board like Attila the Hun.

No one was on the board, so I read more of the Henry III biography I've been reading and watched a movie.

So what about the WORK that Jeremy Lin is doing for the New York Knicks? He has single-handedly kept the team afloat with Carmelo and Amare out these past few days. I knew he was smart being from Harvard and all, but dang man who saw this coming?

Kid is killing it right now. Good for him. Hope he doesn't disappear when they get back. Not a Knicks fan but he is doing great.

I agree Myrtle. They weren't cohesive until he got into the lineup. I think he stays at point when they get back. Gotta have that good pg to run the offense for D'Antoni like Nash at Phoenix.

We've got more than enough snow up here in Alaska. I'm sure I can send some down without anyone noticing...
Edit: the second pic is of a creek, not a path or sidewalk...

Whitney Houston dead at age 48.
Such a great voice. Shame drugs were such a big part of her life in recent years. Gone way too soon.

Holy buckets.
That's not my kinda music, but what a voice — one of the more pure voices I can remember.
So sad, but so predictable considering her past few years...

Whitney Houston was money singing the national anthem. She was definitely my favorite to ever sing the anthem.

God bless The Redhead's girlfriends for taking her to see turrible rom-coms so I can focus on important things, like watching Vandy-Kentucky hoops with the dog.

Scary? What I find scary is that these are the things that can't be said or "explicated", if you will. Awful? You're right. It's awful that I can't say what's on my mind and just...you know...talk about it.
I consider both the censoring of my comment and your feelings on the matter a compliment. I also stand by my opinion.
I've been to Memphis. I'm familiar with the social atmosphere. I'm not saying you're wrong in your dissection of my comment, but I really wish you were. I'd like to fit into Mr. King Jr's vision, but demonizing our thoughts and observations will just take us that much longer to achieve that goal.
A toast to living with blinders on. (I guess not in this life-time)

You can't have it both ways. People are too sensitive. I doubt your comments fit within King's framework.
