Hoops tonight

Memphis/UCLA at 6PM, followed by North Carolina/Kansas thereafter. We’re making lasagna, salad, and bread, something that’s a no-brainer to throw together in advance, and can be ready by gametime. In such a fashion, we can be nourished whilst absorbing all the exciting action.
This is a first for me; my picks for the Final Four are [...]

Finally, the Final Four

Kansas over Davidson, 59-57. What a nail biter that one was. Davidson’s Cinderella shoe now has slipped off this year, but we now know:

Where Davidson is
The Davidson Wildcats aren’t sneaking up on anyone any more

Congratulations to both teams, for proving again that March Madness is the best madness of all.
Now, on [...]

Hoops Time!

Man, I’m glad my little bride asked me who’s playing basketball now. I thought the NCAA games started around 6 or 6:30, like they did last night.
We flipped over from the NASCAR race just in time to see the last minute of Texas/Memphis.
With KU/Davidson to follow. This Davidson [...]

New Header Graphic

I love folks who license their works via Creative Commons. From Flickr, and the kansasexplorer, the newest header graphic to adorn my shabby writing.
This is a picture of Nicodemus KS, a place a scant 50 or 60 miles from my hometown. I can’t adequately explain the significance of Nicodemus, so I’ll quote [...]

One Seed!

The Kansas Jayhawks are seeded #1 in the Midwest Regional. As it should be. The “asides” category continues to serve as a nice live-blogging tool.

How ’bout them Jayhawks?

The Kansas University men’s basketball team has won their third straight Big 12 tournament.
They defeated Texas, 84 - 74.
Can anyone say one seed? Bracketology cussin’ and discussin’ at 6PM EDT.

Kansas Legend

And Clint Bowyer, from Emporia KS, now leads the Kobalt Tools 500 from Atlanta. Be still, my heart!

Happy Kansas Day!

On January 29, 1861, the great state of Kansas was admitted to the Union. It has become a tradition for me to make note of that date on this old blog, to express some of the love I have for Kansas, and sometimes pine for the day that I can go back there to [...]

New Header Graphic

As a Kansas expatriate, I love this one. It’s titled “Field of Sunflowers”, in western Kansas. I’ll bet I’ve driven past that very spot multiple times.
While we’re on the subject of headers, there’s a headers tab up-top there, which shows all the headers that have graced this old blog, since its upgrade to [...]

Hits from Far and Near

I’ve  had a Sitemeter counter on this old blog for a few months now.  I  installed it out of idle curiosity, and only use the free plan.  I don’t plan on having any big billboard on here, telling how many visitors I’ve had.  Frankly, it will never take a billboard of any size to count [...]
