Not wott possessed me to trim some large bushes in the backyard, not hot temperature wise but very muggy. Had to re-hydrate with a Guinness. Sweaty

Certain that I haven't previously related being struck right between the shoulder blades by a Randy Johnson fastball. True story.

Never heard you tell a true story before ... probably why we haven't heard it ... 🤔 😎

Snag  - I am going to talk to Randy tonight. I know exactly where UIC is; it's where I go for my oral surgeons.

Thanks for "brokering" the deal! Really looking forward to this Mule show. Waiting to hear Rocking Horse!

Very first little league game, very first at bat. The other team had identical twins Russell and Randall, for purposes of this story Randy, Johnson. Russell threw righthanded, Randy was a lefty. Hit me right between the shoulder blades, hurt like the beejeezus. A few years later I faced a pitcher named Tim Houdini. It was magical. Got a triple off of him.

We got 2 inches of rain last night ... it was windy and a lot of lightning - but no issues.  My brother and my sister both lost power in the storms last night.

It was on this day in 1970 that the centuries-old tradition of issuing alcohol to the sailors of British warships came to the end with the final tots of rum being handed out that morning in ships and establishments around the world.

Nice day for golf today - overcast so not too hot.  One of the guys from our group got a hole in one today - so he bought drinks.  Told him I hope he gets a few more ...

I've witnessed one hole in one and the circumstance was pretty hilarious. We were in a four man handicapped Calcutta tournament which after the first round teams were flight end. Then there was the auction with teams bidding on who they thought would win their flight after the second day. Three of us on our team bid the highest that our team would win. The fourth member didn't want in on us and instead bought a different team for big bucks. We ended up winning and the three of us split $1800. The fourth guy got the hole in one which helped us win. Plus, because of the ace he had to buy a keg of beer for everyone to quaff. He ended up down over a grand. Wott a knot head.

Heh heh, decade. Really looking forward to it myself. I wonder how many (if any) songs will be played from the new album. I was kind of on the fence about it but I've been listening to it recently and it is pretty good.

Jason Bonham is awesome! I hope he gets an hour or so to play.

And Jackie Greene for the entire Mule set? Wow!
