Because of a medical procedure, I am sort of stuck in the house. I went out this morning but found that being inside feels a lot better. Of course, that gives me time to watch television, and some big things have happened.
O.J. was paroled.
Red West, a member of Elvis’s Memphis Mafia, passed away. He was also in one of my favorite Magnum, P.I. episodes.
Hugh Freeze was fired as head football coach at Ole Miss, which makes this post more relevant.
Oh yeah, two of my favorite events are finishing up. The Tour de France is in its last stages, and the World Series of Poker Main Event is down to the last table.
However, one can only watch so much television. That is why I am cranking up the iPod to see what is going on in there.

I hope it isn’t anything major, Rick. Take care. Best wishes for a quick and complete recovery.
Thanks. It’s nothing big. It’ll pass soon.
Boy ! there’s some gems in there. And some nice interpretations.
I’ll have to look a couple of these up Rick.
I’m glad you liked the list.
