Hogs, Clark, Pelphrey and Gas

What are the relationships between the Arkansas Razorbacks, Rotnei Clark, John Pelphrey and the Price of Gas.

Well, this could be a real puzzle.  The Hogs are very unpredictable.  The price of Gas is unpredictable.  One day it was 2.99 at Walmart the next day it was $3.25 then back down to 3.15.   The Hogs play great one day and beat Kentucky right after they play lousy and get beat by a poor team. 

As for as John Pelphrey - one game he is relaxed and non-demonstrative.  The next game he seems to be out of his gourd.  

Rotnei Clark - great three point shooter one game the next game he can't hit a three pointer but is inside shooting and even blocks a shot.

I just don't understand it all.   $ 65 to fill up with gas?

President Obama Turns into Dictator

"President Obama has instructed the Justice Department to stop defending the constitutionality of the Defense of Marriage Act, which has since 1996 allowed states to refuse to recognize same-sex partnerships legally recognized in other states."

How can our President tell the Justice department what to defend and not defend.  Especially when it is the law of the land.  Why not just declare it a communist state and move on.

What are we coming to.

Satellite TV

Satellite TV is in most peoples opinion the best way to get that television reception that you deserve.  Many people have to choose between satellite Television and cable.  Many of those choices are made toward Satellite Television and the great selection, variety and value that it brings to its many users.  
Well, If you are wanting Satellite television the one that I hear advertised most in my area is Direct TV .  So the question that is posed here is whether or not it is the best way to go.  Most of the people that I have talked to says that it is a great buy and it works very well in rural Arkansas where we live.  These people say that it is a great value for the amount of programming that is brought to you through its services. 
So if you want to use satellite television and you think that this might be the best plan for your viewing entertainment then you may want to check into how the best way is to get this service and the best choices for it.  You will want to know what the cost is and the programming is that you will receive.
Those are my thoughts on this.

Stock Car and Star Spangled Banner

I was watching the beginning of the Daytona 500 today and watched Martina McBride sing the Star Spangled Banner.   To start with she ain't no Christina Aguilar because Martina knew the words.  Isn't that amazing that a country star can sing the Star Spangled Banner and get all of the words right.

The second thing that was a surety that Martina sang the song without a whole lot of Garbling.  The song was sung like it was written with respect and pride. 

Anybody see a pattern here.   Country stars seem to get it right and sing it right.  Others seem to get it messed up and they seem to think they have to put a lot in there that is not necessary.

When Does the Big One Hit?

Magnitude - 2.4
Depth - 5km
Date - 18 FEB 2011 12:50:41
Location - Faulkner County, 3 miles NE from Greenbrier, AR





The above information is becoming something that I look at all too often here in Central Arkansas.  Twelve earthquakes have been recorded since midnight last night and seventeen the day before.  At least two of these quakes were 4.0 or over.  


The thing that worries me is that all of these are happening within about 2 miles of my office.  There are some that are directly west of my office and most are just to the northeast of my office.  This may mean that there is a crack in the earth somewhere down there that goes right under may office.


If the big one comes, will I go down?


That is the question.

Valentine's Day

Looks like it is going to be a beautiful Valentine's day for Arkansas today.  

Get out and take your wife out and have a beautiful and wonderful day of love.

Find a romantic outdoor place and hold her hand and tell her you love her.

That is what it is like here in Arkansas.

Enough Snow already

In case you can't read the sign in the snow it says " If you have had enough cold weather and snow, raise your hand. Are you under there somewhere?

Cold in Arkansas - heat it up with Sports Illustrated SI

It is cold in Arkansas.  There is lots of snow in Arkansas.  There needs to be lots of hot people in Arkansas. 

Publish Post

I wonder what it would be like to have a Sports Illustrated Swim Suit photo shoot with all of those hot women in Arkansas today.  Would those still be hot women or would they be as cold as I am.

I wonder if they could get into the cold water of the lake here and make it steamy hot.  I wonder what the results would be.  Would these hot women make any difference to global warming.

I doubt that any of this would happen.  What are your thoughts.?

Stopping by the Woods on a Snowy Evening

I took these pictures yesterday near Lexington Arkansas.  Reminded me of the poem as I stopped to take the pictures.
---------------------------------------------
 Whose woods these are I think I know.
His house is in the village though;
He will not see me stopping here
To watch his woods fill up with snow.

My little horse must think it queer
To stop without a farmhouse near
Between the woods and frozen lake
The darkest evening of the year.

He gives his harness bells a shake
To ask if there is some mistake.
The only other sound's the sweep
Of easy wind and downy flake.

The woods are lovely, dark and deep.
But I have promises to keep,
And miles to go before I sleep,
And miles to go before I sleep.

What Hogs Show

The Razorbacks get two chances this week to redeem themselves.  My guess is that they will lose both.

They are sick.  They stink.  The hogs Suck

John Pelphrey is a terrible coach.

The team is terrible.

They will never get any better with Pelphrey there.

Do you want to know how I really feel.

Shop Best Diets

Arkansas is just like the rest of America and maybe even worse.  Arkansans need to lose weight.  Arkansans need to find out how to get healthy with a lighter body frame.  By getting lighter we can find ourselves being healthier.  We can do this by several ways and the best is to live a healthier life style.
If you are like me though sometimes this healthier lifestyle might need some boost with something such as healthy weight loss pills.  There is always questions when you start thinking about losing weight by methods other than just putting less food in your mouth and exercising more.  Therefore, it is great to have a website that helps you find the best ways to get healthy and to help you decide things such as what are the best weight loss pills and which ones are best for me and my lifestyle.
So, if you are like me and most of Americans, you need to lose some weight.  If you are looking for help in that emphasis and want to know more about healthy living, then you might want to check out shopbestdiets.com
This is my thoughts for now.  Excuse me while I get ready for the gym.

Arkansas Razorbacks - Where did that team Come from.

I have been critical of the Razorback Basketball team lately.  They have seemed to just be running in circles with no coaching and no real game plan.

Last night was different.  They played and beat the #19 team in the country.  They looked good doing it.  Sanchez and Clark show was what it was.  They scored, rebounded and just plain hustled.  Why the difference.

There even appeared to be a game plan and some good coaching.  Could it simply be that the team decided to play as a team, find the strengths of the night and work the scheme that the coach has planned.

Sounds good to me.  Can it keep happening when they play Georgia at home in a short while.

I doubt it. Who knows.

Arkansas Basketball - High School Style

Last week Florida just barely beat Auburn, the Worst basketball team in the SEC, by only 7 or 8 points and in the same week Arkansas took the Best record team in the SEC east, SC to overtime before getting beat.

Then Saturday night Florida blows out Arkansas.  Arkansas looked like a High School team.  No - take that back they looked like a Junior high team.

John Pelphrey has one of the best recruiting classes in the nation coming in next year.  If he doesn't get to coaching better, someone else will get to win with that team.

Go Hogs?

Hogs When?

Two posts ago was about the Hogs playing on TV at that time.  They went in at half down 5.  Expected it to be over then.

I went away for most of game and came back with 5 minutes left.  Hogs were up 7.  Wow - Way to go.  You can win this one. 

Regulation time ends in a tie.  Hogs go south in overtime and get beat about 7 or 8 points.  Who cares which one.

John Pelphrey - what is the problem.


Go Hogs????

Crowd Control done Right.

There are many places and businesses that have need for crowd control.  Most people think of this as having something to do with an out of control crowd or a police action.  However, this is simply considering the fact that there are many places that could use stanchions to keep people in a line or in order.  Some of the places where this would work could be a bank, concerts, political events or even at the grocery store and anywhere that someone needs to have an orderly line.

Yes, stanchions are a standard way to do this.  There are retractable belts, velvet rope and many other ways of creating lanes or barricades to direct or keep crowds moving in the right direction or in the right place.  Barricades can also be considered for traffic control, security and privacy.  Barricades can be fences, traffic cones, pipe walls or even drape walls. 

So with this new thoughts about crowd control, you may even decide that it is something that you or your company may have a need for.  What do you think.  Do you have any needs for this.  If so you know how to search online to find what you need. 

These are my thoughts for now.

Hogs Now

The Hogs are on TV right now.  I quit at half to watch Criminal minds.  I have not checked back yet.
  They were behind 5 at the half.  Razorbacks did not deserve to be on the floor as many shots as they had missed.

Could not figure why they were still hanging in.  Hope they win but expect when I get back to the game the score will be lopsided for the other Team. 

Can John Pelphrey last.

Get Online Freebies

Are you one of those people that gets excited about getting free samples or just about any type of free stuff?
Does just getting the opportunity to get something like free cell phones make you so excited you tremble?  If the answer to these things is yes and yes then you need to make haste to the website that I have recently been introduced to called FreeCatcher.com.  This site has it all. 

I went to the site just to review what they had to offer so that I could talk about it intelligently and found myself going through all of the pages that were there to see what was available.  Yes, while I was there I found myself clicking the links and signing up for free products.  I found that you could get free product offers online, by mail, free trials, free coffee and just about anything you could think of had something to offer in some way.  What is best about it was it was free.

So, if you are into getting free stuff  like most people are, then you need to get to this site in a hurry and get started.  You will be glad that you did.  That is my thoughts on that.

Arkansas Basketball

Arkansas Basketball is at a Crossroads. The question is what do you do when you come to the fork in the road. The joke answer is that you pick up the fork and eat with it. The question for the Razorbacks and for John Pelphrey is what will they eat.

Will the Razorbacks eat crow or will they eat their opponents? Will they eat the right stuff or will they get eaten up.

Will Pelphrey get to stick around next year to be able to work with this great class that he has recruited or will he be thrown out for someone else.

If Pelphrey were to get fired, who would replace him that is any better.

Those are my thoughts for now.

Go Hogs.
