Dad, husband, Bluegrass born proud North Carolinian, political junkie, dog lover, sport and music loving wisdom seeker. My thoughts are my own.

Bob from NC called into @cspanwj this morning to tell @RevDrBarber that the way out of poverty is to get a job, keep your nose clean, & not have babies out of wedlock.

Take 2min to hear a pastor’s prophetic response to someone who believes the myths Trump & Vance are selling.

Even if you’ve never gone through the hell of infertility, someone you know has. When Gwen and I were having trouble getting pregnant, the anxiety and frustration blotted out the sun.

JD Vance opposing the miracle of IVF is a direct attack on my family and so many others.

In 2015, Calipari started the Harrison twins in the NCAA tournament because they were ready and they had proven themselves as Booker/Ulis had their struggles. That is not the case with Reed and Rob. Feels like an easy choice if the goal is to win the whole thing, which they can.

Without overreacting, Kentucky might be the Death Star now.

Big Z drills consecutive deep jumpers. This is insane.

Father—
I seem to have come into a bit of coin and greenbacks. I need to borrow the wagon for a week or so to transport it all. I shall buy Mother something special, then I must buy a new cabin near Fort Paycor as it appears I will remain stationed there some years hence.

North Carolina Republicans are trying to make it harder to vote and easier to create turmoil in the election certification process. We can’t let them get away with it.

@Canes My daughter has been to her first two Canes games this season -- Svech's hat trick in a 7-goal explosion against the Oilers and an insane 3-goal comeback against LA. Setting the bar high! Love this team -- go Canes!

@AFHS_XC_Track Awesome, guys!

[Pearl Jam @PearlJam]

Hats off to you, Nashville! 🎸

@joemyers92 The program that Stoops has built is a testament to hard work and determination. UK has come a long way since 73-7 and 65-0 beatdowns and Steve Spurrier taunts. Go Big Blue!

@Yoda4ever Great thread! #ambition

Snapped this picture of Mike with Chuck Hayes at UK shootaround ay Vandy in 2020. Everybody gravitated to MP for his bball knowledge and his friendship. I loved him like a brother. My heart is broken. RIP

I don’t know, man, maybe some dudes from the 1700s who owned people and would be mystified by the sight of a dishwasher weren’t right about everything in perpetuity
