Week 13, aka Rivalry Week, provided all of the “wow factor” that week twelve, aka Yawn Week, lacked. And better yet, like turkey, you got served portions Thursday, Friday, and Saturday. The outcomes (one of which took 4 hours and 53 minutes) provided some clarity as to who might be in the playoffs, or bowling, …
Did you participate in the mad dash for your cash called Black Friday? In today’s world you can “save” money without out even getting in the car.

If Lefty and Shorty were still with us on Thanksgiving evening the night might have unfolded like this. Lefty and Shorty sat quietly in the cool fall air. It was nearly midnight and cars were nowhere to be found. Lefty- Why do we stay open till midnight on Thanksgiving? Shorty- So that we can discuss how …
Thanksgiving has come and is nearly gone. That means Rivalry Week is upon us. It starts Turkey Day night with the Egg Bowl. Abby has no egg on her jowls however. A difficult week to wager nicked her just a bit. Her won/loss record is dead even at 18-18-1. We give thanks that her bones …

We continue today exploring the meaning of phrases that we use in everyday life. A couple of weeks ago we confirmed that it was better to butter someone up than to eat humble pie. We do our best below to give you another hair-raising experience. When one gives maximum effort, whatever the endeavor, it is …
Week 12 thankfully has come and gone for college football. We say thankfully because many games looked like mismatches prior to Saturday and their scores looked liked mismatches after the game ended Saturday. There were a few notable exceptions though. Looking ahead rivalry week is upon us. Many games look like good matchups. We give …
Boom! Abby lit up Vegas last week like fireworks on the 4th of July. One bet (Indiana -2) pushed while the four others that had bones wagered went off like roman candles. Her hunch bet popped yet again as well. Last Saturday night the sky was quite bright. For the season Abby’s bark is piercing. …
Do you remember Chad? They say that everyone is famous for 15 minutes. Chad was that and then some. Hanging around for days, Chad was no dummy either. He chose warm south Florida in mid November just eleven months after we celebrated the year 2000 and the 21st century replacing 1999 and the 20th century. …
