5 Things We Know On A Sunday

1. Update on our Cat-Dog. I truly think cats don’t know their names. They pretend. But they don’t think they have a name. Why would a cat need a name. They’re not going to acknowledge you any ways. I can, however, say the cat-dogs name and anyone of our three dogs will promptly come over to me and see what they can do. Or if I’ll feed them. Or let them outside. Or change the channel for them. The cat-dog? Nothing. Naming a cat is wasted time.
2. Ham is so much better than turkey and it’s not even close. Let the turkeys live this Thanksgiving and have some ham. It takes far too much work to make turkey good. Smoke it, fry it, whatever. Ham, just cut open a package of ham and it’s good to go. Left-over ham wins as well. No one actually chooses to have a turkey sandwich for the most part. They only do it during the holidays cause there’s so much turkey left over because no one wanted it the first time around. Now ham, ham is a first-choice, top draft pick sandwich meat. Not that you’ll have any left if you do ham at Thanksgiving instead of turkey.
3. Top 3 “Story Songs” All-Time: No. 3. Gene Autry, ”Rudolph The Red-Nosed Reindeer”. No. 2. Gordon Lightfoot, ”Wreck Of The Edmund Fitzgerald”. No. 1. Tom Russel, ”Gallo Del Cielo”.
4. If you don’t think America is Exceptional, go to your grocery store and walk through the produce section. I can get confused by 50 kinds of apples, 8 kinds of lettuce, oranges I’ve never heard of and so many tomatoes I swear they’re just making up names to call them. Go back a few decades and make that same trip to a store. Then, go to another country and make a similar trip to a store in the produce section. We’re doing pretty good, based on my Lettuce-Kale-Spinach-Orange-Tomato-Potato Index. The fact we have to ask our wives, ”which kind of tomato” is all we need to know.
5. For our Texas Tech friends of a certain age, Alabama was the best bus driver on campus and you know it’s a fact! I’d get on his bus even when I didn’t need a ride just to say hey and see what he had to say. Texas Tech Legend. Ought to be celebrated in the Centennial Celebration on campus. Need a Bus Wrap with him on the side. Surely there are pictures out there.
