Fox(?) Hunting

Rain yesterday and today has washed away any hopes of hunting today. Maybe it’s time to hunt a different fox. I recently learned that UK hockey mascot (and Sports Illustrated swimsuit model) Kylie Bax has a horse farm on the north side of Lexington and is building a house there.

Fed Ex Geography Lesson

Do you know where the North Pole is? Fed Ex does; it’s in Basalt, Colorado. I found this story too late to add my prediction to the poll, but it’s interesting to see the result. I was a little disappointed to see that they have a waiver on file for Santa to allow deliveries without… Continue reading Fed Ex Geography Lesson

Wintry Mix

Sounds almost appetizing, doesn’t it? That’s the weather forecast for tonight-tomorrow. What it really means is slop. Something cold and wet is going to fall out of the sky, and they’re not sure just exactly what combination of rain, freezing rain, snow and sleet to expect.

It finally happened

A friend emailed me this picture with that caption. It seems especially appropriate with today’s dropping temperatures and high winds. After the story on creative photoshopping, I’m not completely sure it’s real. But just in case, maybe I should forward this to a few of the women who promised to go out with me when… Continue reading It finally happened

News reports say W was a little Wary this year when he issued the traditional Thanksgiving turkey pardon. He was probably afraid of a repeat of last year’s embarrassment.

It’s a Jungle Out There

The UK Police Log for last week has some interesting entries, especially if the reader attemtps to make any connection between some of them. We have: ¥ Nov 11 – Suspicious persons seen in East Lot reported at 1:04 AM. Four males with eggs. ¥ Nov 11 – Suspicious circumstances at Kirwan I reported at… Continue reading It’s a Jungle Out There
