Maybe some out of state games. Surely the NCAA will not let this happen. I can just imagine influencing a recruit by coming to his high school and broadcasting the game.

And we got in trouble for hostesses holding up cardboard signs?

UT is now leading by a large margin. 

I would still be a Colts fan. I've been a Colts fan since I was a kid. And we all know how many years ago that was.

Peyton playing for the Colts just made it better.

I thank you. My kidney thanks you.

Thanks for asking! 

One bottle tonight to get back up to speed.

Louis Armond Vouvray (2010)($11.00)
A French white that's 100% Chenin Blanc. Fruity and medium-bodied, technically dry but theres a nice off-dry quality followed by a tart and tangy acidity on the finish. Many people remember the "Chenin Blanc" jug wines of the 70's* and don't know that many excellent wines are made with this grape varietal. The Vouvray region of the Loire Valley produces the best. Tonight's wine is an excellent sipper with an alcohol level of 12%.



*Inglenook was my favorite. Not bad. It was the at the beginning of my interest in wine. Chenin Blanc was the most widely grown white grape in California until the growing popularity of Chardonnay and Sauvignon Blanc changed things in the 70's. Also, the quality of the Chenin Blanc wines was less than stellar due to the producers concentrating more on quantity. A lot of jugs were being sold.

Droner, are you going to make them pay a penalty fee? 

At least you are getting rain in your part of the state, so quit crying.

Penalty Fee? Those asshats cut everybody's fees but their own. I frequently have it out with them because they "quote" my fees for me. And they're always lower than what I charge. So the client expects the lower fee. 

It doesn't happen that often but it has happened the last two days. Sun spots I guess. 

I'm getting the message: Error 500 - Internal server error

I'll say it again...I truly believe that one day the unversities with the big athletic programs will leave the NCAA and form their own association. It almost happened once before (or at least was bluffed) when Vince Dooley threatened them with the CFA, I believe it was called.

Then let's see how the NCAA operates when their cash cow is reduced to the have-nots, the Div. I-AA, oops sorry, the FCS and Division II and III.

I'm not for letting the cheaters get away with cheating. But the NCAA is abusive and power hungry.

I will not be leaving the office early today. This asshat mortgage company can't get it together and get me the loan package so I can close out this purchase until this afternoon. Asshats. It's raining anyway.

Thank you. That is all. Carry on.

Unfortunately for the tiglets, they aren't declared the champs. What a shame.

That would be stones now ...

More like dust. They pulverized the hell out of that thing. Thank goodness.

No pain, great drugs. I'll be back in the office tomorrow and on the golf course by Friday. 

Yeah, they are.

You can also put your Boone's Farm reviews under droner's "What's droner drinking?" posts from now on. 

On a cold day in hell. 

Unfortunately it's still just water. I have until Tuesday morning to pass this thing. Although from what they tell me about the size of it, I probably really don't want to pass it. The best thing is probably going to be to just let them blast it and pass the pieces.

I did indulge in a couple of glasses of wine at dinner with friends last night. But now it's back to water. Lots of water. And I really don't like water. Which proably explains my problem in the first place.  

I will be leaving the office at 11:30 today. The stone has not passed but I'm getting back to normal. Golf today, lithotripsy Tuesday.

Thank you. That is all. Carry on.

Sorry to hear this. Thinking of you and your family.

Thanks for asking!

To celebrate a Vol win: 

Stag's Leap Wine Cellars Cabernet Sauvignon Napa Valley Fay (1999)($75.00 Release price in 2002)

An outstanding classic California Cabernet. A droner's Vault selection.

Excellent.

I give this a star and a nomination for VTTW Hall of Fame. I don't have to see them. I know that they are there.
