Your Mom is winning. We have a family NCAA basketball pool going for the current national championship. Out of 16 games Mom had 4 “losing picks”. With all the upsets yesterday, that borders on phenomenal.
I have often contemplated flipping a coin on all 68 games in the NCAA tournament and taking my chances.
The latest rage is to let the mascots determine the outcome. For example, if the UW team with a badger mascot would play the Louisville cardinals, UW wins because the badger would devour the cardinal. Laugh if you will, but the experienced basketball fan isn’t picking any better.
I understand Grasshopper No.5 has a new, huge HD smart Sony TV. It must be nice. Is 3D and 4K included?
Grasshopper No.2 is disgusted with the “high billing” games of cable and dish networks so she has cancelled everything that has to do with HDTV. The cable industry has turned phone, internet, and TV programing into a “floating crap game”. I have empathy with her plight.
Yesterday, March 19, was the birthday anniversay of my Mom. She would have been 93. Mom’s Dad (Grandpa George) had a birthday of March 15. He would have been 108. Gad, there have been a lot of March birthdays in our family.
Today is the first day of Spring. I have considered taking my snow tires off but that would be tempting fate. Not yet!
UW Badgers play tonight at 8:20 PM. It should be interesting.
Love,
Dad
