A little Al Capp to be reincarnated. Not today. In next week’s KONK Life column.
I completed the research yesterday. Following a long early afternoon nap. It would be interesting if the inspiration had come as a vision while asleep. It did not. I thought about it in the morning.
The column will not be a Li’l Abner, Daisy Mae, Dogpatch story. I needed Joe Btfspik. The little guy with the black cloud over his head.
Btfspik will be the introduction. Introduction to a great inventor who never made a penny from any of his inventions. A black cloud over his head.
The column will be written tomorrow.
The only time I was out of the house yesterday was in the morning to work out on the anti-gravity treadmill. The power went out. Strange to stand there on the machine in the pitch black. I was locked into the machine. Could not move. Fortunately, the power was out only eight minutes.
I was to attend two gallery openings last night. I cancelled. I was dead tired. Too much out and about during the week.
Tonight, back on the road. San Carlos. The Waterfront Playhouse is having a fund raiser. Many to attend. A similar show being presented at the same time at the Waterfront Playhouse.
A sell out. No tickets available since wednesday.
The weather forgets this is Key West. By this time, it should be sun every day. Not so. Cold yesterday. Cold today. Cold during the night.
Sixty five at the moment. High supposed to be 75. Hot! We shall see. Sunday night temperature will drop to high 50s. That is cold! Poor weather to continue through friday.
The NCAA is a black cloud over college basketball. The Joe Btfspik of college basketball.
Louisville self imposed a sentence/penalty yesterday. Announced Louisville would not be playing in any post season tournaments this year.
Pitino was unaware. Administration made the decision.
The NCAA has Pitino in its gun sight. Perhaps deservedly so.
There is an anguish that goes with an NCAA investigation. For team, coach, school and fans. Syracuse suffered through a ten year investigation till the bombs fell. Boeheim got a raw deal. Nothing will change my mind.
Enjoy your day!
