GAMEDAY

Starting out a nice day here in Lower Ontario. On and off bright and sunny 44 degrees. I don't think the clash of SEC titans : UGA v UK is going to be on television for us, but you just never know.

I will update here all day long.

That time of year, coffee out of my
favorite Halloween mug!

Trip to Wegmans for supplies.
Mexican Lasagna for dinner
pics to follow

Stopped by my new favorite pumpkin stand.

Came home, started watching Ark/Ole Miss.
LIGHTNING! what? Come on, we are the SEC
We play through hurricanes!
switched over to

Just in time to see the Irish lose! Notre Dame
and the Yankees losing in the same weekend, a good
time for the little guy! 

GO/GEAUX TIGERS
settling in to watch this one.

6:40 pm. : This tiger on tiger game just goes back and forth, it looks like such a pretty day there in the Auburn. We are not on real tv, but ! got an email from Time Warner this week saying that we were getting espn3.. just dont know if it has kicked in yet...

Nope, its not on, following on the AJC and Dana is calling with updates. I'm watching Derek hold his own with the defending National Champs:

Tennessee just got SPANKED by Alabama 41-10, but you know, these boys and their fans stayed into the game. The team kept trying, LOTS of fans in the stands at 00:00. I'm not saying anything nice about the damn Vols, I mean they did beat us NINE straight years in the 90's, so no love lost, it was just impressive to see, thats all. 

We go together like rama lama lama de ding a de dinga a dong

Koda's best gal pal is back in the fold

this happy late in the year. Very odd.

Plenty of years Halloween has been snowy
I am not complaining!

Autumn

We are a day or two past  peak leaf peeping this far north , and after a quick rainy morning the temptures are dropping like a stone. tick, tick, tick...

Koda on the trail the other side of the park! Change is good. We had to walk over to our neighbor Joe's auto shop and get the car. A very Mayberry day in Mendon.

With Apologies to Hedwig : Nate and the Angry SIX

Map and Poll god, Nate Silver, now of the NYT, has come out with his latest , almost never wrong prediction for the mid terms . HERE is the entire interactive breakdown. ( I so ♥ Nate and the NYT during elections! )

House R+6

Six stupid districts in the entire country, one of which is my own. We have been with out a congressman since Tickle Me Elmo stepped down under all that hullabaloo. A fantastic young fresh aggressive Iraq vet named  Matt Zeller is the Democratic candidate, but due to some age old and way silly state GOP gerrymandering, he does not really stand that much of a chance. ( really, it gets down to road by road in the heavy Democratic urban parts of his district )

So,  a swing of seven lousy seats and the house stays Democratic, and the President is doing his best to squash his base. Go figure....

How can ANYONE be a GAY REPUBLICAN ?

Our pal Andy, just back from closing a winning game for the SF Giants , lets go in his own British way.

VERY poignant for today, as GLBT American roils in the recent decision of the Obama DOJ.
