And now the wife is quoting Monty Python. Quite fitting, as Pitt still feels fine and might go for a walk.

Navy’s Anaconda offense did a number on the rest of the conference. Coach Farragut and his boys could easily lay claim to titles in 1862 and 1863.

A continuation of those thoughts. 2/2
It's been a lot to process for my erstwhile colleagues and me, along with our neighbors. It has been a sad and devastating past couple days as a new normal sets in and a content desert develops over our verdant, rolling pastures and croplands. I'm elated to have received messages of support and encouragement from friends in and out of the broadcasting community. And yet, there is potential. A wildfire may leave a charred landscape in its path, but from the ash a green pasture and new forests can grow. It's a turning of the page. That next page, the new chapter, may still be in broadcasting, or it may be elsewhere, or it may be a stay-at-home dad to an ebullient two-year-old. But it's blank, and ready for the story to unfold. Thank you to everyone who listened to my farm updates and Scholars Weekly programs the past decade on the old sticks. A big thank you to Brad for taking a chance on an overeager 20-something just craving a return to the good side of 36°30, for opening the platform to celebrate the region's rich and still-evolving heritage of Scholar Bowl, and for keeping me involved even when I ended up elsewhere. A major thank you to all my colleagues past and present, in a newsroom where even amid the frivolity, history was made and documented. Additionally, a special thank you to Mike, Clay, Larry and Greg for allowing me to share my talents on your airwaves during my 11-year tenure with KRES. It would have been very difficult to remain in the profession without this unique arrangement that happened to introduce me to the whole work-from-home thing a few months before it became a necessity. As I said, a new chapter is ahead. I may not have written the plot twist that abruptly closed the last one, but I await what the next few pages hold and beyond. Meanwhile, the bookmark is a HyVee receipt with a large honey-do list scribbled on the back. I suppose I need to tackle that with the extra time I now have on my hands. (Two photos follow: one of a kitchen radio affixed to the bottom of a dish cabinet, the other of an empty notebook page sitting atop a closed laptop.)

On the flip side, it'd also be hilarious if right after the parade, Travis and/or Jason made the flight to Melbourne and crashed one of Taylor's concerts with a rousing rendition of "Up There Cazaly!"

2) Sonya Calvera is gonna be real ticked that her husband Bernardo will have to work late two weeks from tonight. He & Vin will have to work extra shifts patrolling District A with the 49ers in the big game.

Gabriel Bell isn’t gonna like it if the Chiefs win.

Las Vegas returned to the F1 calendar this past November.

Who’s up for seeing Martin Brundle doing a grid walk along the sidelines of Allegiant Stadium?
