Go Zippy!!!!
If you are one of the many that fill out a basketball poll for March Madness... You may have followed all the teams and have quality insight. Or you may just use what I call 'Mascot Logic'... this is where you take Akron Zips - Zippy and wonder if Zippy could beat a Creighton Bluejay? The other factor maybe your just a homer and GO AKRON. Well if you use 'Mascot Logic' a made up term by me... Sports Illustrated went and ranked the Mascots. Click here to see what they came up with and Go Zips!!! And Zippy!!!
(and yes that is me in my Blue Dragon Mascot Costume... I don't think it would make the list.)
Movie Fun or Not....
This weekend should be fun... Friday is a Feel Good Friday...and Bustin' Makes Me Feel Good as Ray Parker Jr. sang... Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire is in theaters.
The Swayze Reboot: Roadhouse is coming to Amazon with Jake G./Connor McGregor and Post Malone...
On a side (real far side note): There's no publicity like bad publicity... The Oscars were just handed out for the best flicks of the Year (Oppenheimer and Barbie)... The Razzies happen the same week for the worst flicks. The Winnie The Pooh Horror Movie was the big winner or loser. So the creators are doubling down by crossing over a sequel with Bambi, Tinker Bell and Pinocchio?? If there is no title of yet... I would go with "HARD PASS"...

Happy Birthday, Blue!
This is Blue. Today is his birthday! I will tell him Happy Birthday for y'all. He is 16!! He is a rescue from Texas, when we lived there. Blue doesn't get around well anymore, he can barely see and snores really loud. The great news is he still loves his walks, although a lot shorter these days. His meals still dissappear quickly and snacks have become more frequent.
He might look like an oppossum but this pup is awesome. You're my boy, Blue!!
Garth Brooks Vegas Fly Away Winner!
