This blog has been online for six + years. There are over 1200 posts on here. It works out to about 4 posts per week. Some weeks have been more prolific than others (in all things, not just dispensing crap). I often think about pulling the plug on this deal
I hadn’t been near the keyboard for over a week. Been at Tulsa for part of that week. Getting ready to go back again. We didn’t show much stock this time. In Shattuck, with fast-pitch softball and football, these kids have enough going on this time of year. We will
