    OT: Cancer related to alcohol

    Anything and everything in too much quantity can kill you. Pick your poisons carefully. As I write this I am enjoying Woodford Reserve double Oaked Bourbon on the rocks with a nice cigar while overlooking the Arkansas river with my wife as we listen to some soft jazz. Go Knights!

    OT: Cancer related to alcohol

    You and I are the same age. It does seem like that more issues started after 65, well at least different issues. I feel blessed to have a good circle of close friends from 50-60 years ago. I stay active despite being diabetic and less than perfect knees. Keep your mind sharp and realize the...

    OT: Rose Reinstated

    Also reinstated is my wife’s great uncle, Gene Paulette. I have no doubt that he will NOT be voted into the HOF. But hey, it is satisfying to say that he is eligible.

    OT: Get ready for the most anticipated event of the season

    Be sure to season it multiple times BEFORE using it. You will be surprised how much difference it will make moving forward with your cooking.

    OT: Would Any of You Like To Have My Rutgers Shirts for Free ?

    You are a good man! My dermatologist pretty much says the same thing every 3 months on my visits. Five skin cancers and multiple stitches to seal things up have made me a believer in covering up! I now have a fairly sizable collection of hats and long sleeve shirts. However the damage of 70...

    OT: My wife could use some good thoughts/prayers (updated 5/16)

    Southern prayers for your wife and yourself. We don’t go through this alone. May God grant your wife good health and you the strength to share this disease as she deals with it physically and mentally.

    OT: World Championship Chocolate Gravy Cook-off !

    Just for clarification. I love Taylor ham when I am in Northern New Jersey. I love Taylor Pork Roll when I am in Southern New Jersey. I love ham hocks(smoked preferably) with my black eye peas in all parts of Arkansas. I do not like chocolate gravy anywhere in America.

    I just had to throw into the discussion the epic Taylor Ham vs. Pork Roll. I couldn’t resist. Sorry.

    OT: World Championship Chocolate Gravy Cook-off !

    LOL. Seriously, chocolate gravy is a real thing. It pairs well with biscuits and a high quality breakfast meat such as Taylor Ham or , as some in the South would call it, Pork Roll. Unfortunately I am in a dilemma as to attend the Chocolate Gravy Cook-off or attend Toad Suck Days in Conway...

    Interesting for sure. Those deficits hurt.

    Arkansas Passes Bill Exempting NIL Money from Income Tax

    It’s an affront to everyone else in the idiotic state of Arkansas. We are hard working people, just as you are in NJ, and yet we have to pay our state income tax. It’s a matter of priorities, principles, and how quickly the state can fall into the abyss. I hope someone files a lawsuit.
