Orangemen Leave King Wondering and Other Tidbits

1) I have to admit that I am not a fan of any kind of basketball but the Syracuse Orangmen have me completely baffled. How can a team that loses to division two Lemoyne College, even though it was an exhibition game, beat twelfth ranked California and fourth ranked, and last years champ, North Carolina??? It would almost be comparable to the Bills losing to Cleveland, which they somehow did, and then in the next two weeks beating New Orleans and Indianapolis. Jim Boeheim must be a miracle worker.
2) Your King and Queen visited the Bingo Parlor last night, incognito of course, in order to attempt to put some extra loot into the castle's coffers. After two and a half hours of trying the castle's coffers are still depleted. Oh well, maybe next time. Its fun to do once in a while...but not too often.
3) Well, it had to happen. Your King's hot bowling streak has finally catapulted him to where he belongs. In a span of five weeks my average has gone from about 188 to about 201, even in that hellhole called Spencerport Lanes. I finally am starting to have the feel for the ball that I had seven years ago before I took a sabbatical from the game. I hope the same thing happens to my golf game next year.
The Monday night league is a little different than the Tuesday Night League. There are some really nice people but then again there are some strange birds. Still makes it fun though.
4) So far, weather wise, November has been very tame. Last year, at this time, we had a covering of snow that lasted until February when the weather finally turned OK. It would be nice to have a rather tame winter for once.
5) Once again our State's government has shown that they lead the country in not getting anything done. Our bloated budget, and now deficit, is the albatross that we all have to bear thanks to this do nothing government.
That is enough blather from Moronica for today. Have a happy!
