So I splashed on a large dose of repellent. No more mosquitoes… also no more crowded seats. A radius of about 10 feet of patrons decided to move upwind from me. Including my date.

    May I borrow some of that?

    Anyone who missed Michigan State and Kansas State missed one of the best non-ACC games I have ever watched.

    Thank you all for your thoughts and prayers. Robert made it in time, barely. She passed a short while ago.

    It was spectacular.

    I have former roommates from each school. I didn't live with them at the same time. I did however make the same deal with both of them. I'd root for Michigan State/Kansas State in football if they'd root for Duke in basketball, unless their teams were playing Duke. (The deal was made after Magic Johnson left and before Tom Izzo arrived with the MSU roommate.) Both sent me messages to remind me to root for their teams. I had a vested interest in the game even if I couldn't decide who I wanted to win.

    Down the stretch, I found I was pulling for K-State. Purple gets me every time.

    Well, Google must have read this thread because the stuff showing up in my Discover feed(new tab) is a smorgasbord of mother nature.

    Many condolences, DinK. Tough to lose someone to an accident like that. Best wishes to her son, as well.
