Yep, on the porch with a cigar now. Saw that the Tide lost...
Yeah, just like last year. They again lost to Ole Miss. Saints lost, too. Listening to the Cowboys on the radio now.
Oh well...
It’s a rerun! (:
BUMMER! I hope Ed is okay. You were right about him not sounding good last week, and now they’re playing a re-run. The girl said he’s “on vacation.” I don’t think so.
We’ll be praying for Ed.
Wow! I just realized, with the Christmas-winter music, that this is an older show. How did you find it so quickly?
Wonder why he/they picked this one, it's fairly unremarkable and out of season...
