Cheapest ones I have seen here are $1100. I can get a shih tzu puppy for $275. Someone tell me what the temperament of a shih tzu is

My friends have one and he is very friendly. He was little hyper when he was young, but all young dogs can be that way, especially the small ones.

The Shih Tzu is probably less expensive. My secretary says that a friend of hers bought one of those spaniels and it costs $1500.00

Thanks for asking! 


Pine Ridge Chenin Blanc-Viognier (2010)($15.00)

I drink this California white about once a month. It's a tasty blend of Chenin Blanc(79%) and Viognier (21%). Year to year this wine is a good buy. It should be relatively easy to find.

I hope you're not planning to play golf during a tornado watch?????

Yep. 

We got very little rain and no storms. It was windy this afternoon. Apparently we were right in between the two bands of storms.

I can't help but wonder if this is prescribed behavior to help manage her illness or if she is having more issues with her illness. I certainly hope its the former.

On a side note I had a gentleman call my office the other day with the last name Head. Of course I was obligated to ask the obvious question. He said they may be very distantly related but that was all. Since he works in Nashville he had been asked that question a lot over the years. 

Was his first name "Dick"?    

I'd like to thank Stogie for introducing me to Person of Interest on CBS.

Boardwalk Empire on HBO is another good one.

I watch those, too.

Right now, "Justified" is my favorite.

I will be leaving the office at 11:30 today. But since this is a "usual" reminder, you should know that.

Thank you. That is all. Carry on.

I did not watch the whole game but Pat acted like an assistant coach from the shots I saw of the bench. I can't help but wonder if that is on purpose to keep her stress level down or if she is having problems from time to time?

I know it can't be easy for any of the coaches or players.  

That's the way it's been all season. She's sat on the bench and let the others run things. Warlick even handles the press conferences.

And another first.....Three home losses for the season is a record for Lady Vols.

Another first for a team against the Lady Vols. The first time Arkansas has won at TB. These "firsts" have happened all year.

Strickland missed 4 free throws in OT. 

With 6 seconds left and the Lady Vols with the ball and down by 3, Arkansas fouls. That's a smart move. A player should just throw up a shot when that happens.

Homeland is excellent.

4th and 19 against Bama and Casey Clausen completes it for the first down. Casey was a gamer.

`

I will be leaving the office at 11:30 to play golf in beautiful 65 degree weather. It's a burden I bear.

Thank you. That is all. Carry on.

`

ESPN3 for me. The local paper sports page said it was on a local channel via the SEC Network but no.... If it's not ACC, we ain't getting it.

The sweet nectar of VICTORY!!

Yep, once again.

Thanks for asking!


Carpineto Toscana White Dogajolo (2010)($13.00)

Nice Italian white. Light to medium bodied, dry and crisp. A blend of Chardonnay, Grechetto, and Sauvignon Blanc.(Percentages aren't given.) A good buy for thirteen bucks.

I agree with one of the GVX posters. End the series in BB and FB. Then schedule an out of conference opponent in BB for a game in Memphis each year. Let Memphis rake in the "big bucks" in FB with their Big East buddies.

Well, barring a miracle run in the NCAAT (and that's happened before), this is going to go down as the most disappointing LV team in recent history.  With everyone back from last year, I expected them to contend for a NC.  I also thought that Pat's situation would bring the team together, but it seems to have had the opposite effect.

Yep. It seems like every game the opposing team or one of its players breaks some team or personal best against the Lady Vols. It's unbelievable that it seems like it's every game.

I think this is it for Pat. I think she steps down at the end of the season.
