    Had a bad tooth in the back of my mouth for a while. I broke it Monday morning while brushing my teeth. Had a sharp edge that was slicing into my tongue for about 26 hours. Dentist took a file to it to remove the sharp edge but it's still touching the cut up area of my tongue. Going back tomorrow to have the tooth removed.

    All the bowl games suck except for the two that decide the outcome of the championship because all the teams are decimated by internal breakups..... departed coaches, departed coordinators and key players departed to the transfer portal or opting out to prepare for the NFL draft. Until we have a realistic playoff schedule, the bowls are not good football.

    The whole landscape changes next year with a 12 team playoff. In my opinion the transfer portal and the way they went about the NIL situation has ruined the college game. It’s simply the NFL minor leagues now.

    If it don’t bother me, it don’t bother me. Just leave me alone.

    If fcs can do a 24 team bracket, so can fbs. They would do better to skip the bowl system. It’s obsolete. The Bowls, as individual organizations are selfish and have held back progress for decades now. Screw ‘em!

    Hope you fell better soon, Patrick. My Wife has been having something flare up in her leg that's been exacerbated by the road trip.

    Is that a muscle or joint issue?

    It’s a muscle issue. My hip muscle puts pressure on my sciatic nerve, this is very uncomfortable, but as long as I walk normal it won’t do any lasting damage. It affects my leg and lower back.

    Thanks for the education, hadn't heard of that. Sounds a bit like my issues with lumbar stenosis only that is a spinal degeneration pinching the sciatic nerve. Getting old is so entertaining, lol.

    Thanks Edward, more things I have to look forward to. I’m sorry you have that, I hope it doesn’t cause you to much pain.

    My son had a bout with that last year. Believe it or not, he says that playing hockey makes it better. Skate up!

    Probably just moved the pain.

    Don't let the wife know what you spend on guns, ammo or cigars.

    When a cigar company puts out a blend that is really good but doesn't state its only available for a limited time. Or when they discontinue a blend and don't give a warning so you can stock up.

    Comet, sci-fi channel, has been QVC for the last two days. Tried reprogramming channels to no avail. I'm missing the final season of Grimm as a marathon on Comet.😡

    Waking up to find that an articulating joint that worked just fine without pain yesterday, doesn't want to behave that same way today. And then, wondering, "what did I do?", and coming up with nothing. Just is what it is.

    Pizz, moan, grumble grumble...

    Isn't every joint a joint that articulates?
