Alright, let’s talk about this tennis rating thing, the one they call “dynamic.” Sounds fancy, but it’s just a way to figure out how good someone is at playing tennis, you know? Like, who’s gonna win and who’s gonna get their butt kicked. What’s this “dynamic” all about? Well, from what I gather, it means the rating changes. It ain’t some number they stick on you and that’s it. Nope, it goes up and down like a seesaw depending on how you play. You win, your rating goes up. You…

Well now, let’s talk about them 2 ft tall banker boxes, ya hear? Folks call ’em all sorts of things – storage boxes, moving boxes, whatever. But to me, they’re just big ol’ boxes, good for stuffin’ things in. I ain’t no fancy expert, mind you, but I know a thing or two about keepin’ things tidy. These boxes, they come in all sorts of sizes, but we’re lookin’ at the ones about two foot tall, or thereabouts. That’s, let’s see, about this high, from my knee to… well, somewhere…

Well, howdy there! Let me tell ya’ll about this here OSSAA basketball state tournament 2024. It’s a big to-do, you know, like them county fairs but with more bouncing balls and less prize-winning pigs. First off, they got all sorts of schools playing, from the big city slickers to the little country bumpkin schools like, well, never you mind. They call ‘em Class 6A, 5A, all the way down to 2A and even A. Sounds fancy, but it just means some schools got more young’uns than others. And they all…

Alright, let’s talk about this yamalube 2 stroke golf cart oil stuff. I ain’t no fancy mechanic, mind you, just an old woman who’s seen her fair share of engines sputter and die. But I know a thing or two about keepin’ things runnin’ smooth, and oil, well, that’s like the blood of your golf cart. Now, this “Yamalube” they talk about, it seems to be a pretty popular choice. Folks say it’s good for Yamaha engines, makes ’em run like a top. I hear tell there’s different kinds of…

Alright, let’s talk about this Adam Cole fella. Folks keep askin’ me, “How much money does that Adam Cole guy have?” Well, I ain’t his banker, but from what I hear, he’s doin’ alright. They say he’s got somewhere between, you know, one and a half million and maybe even five million dollars. That’s a whole lotta chickens! Now, where’d he get all that money? Well, he’s a wrestler, see? A wrassler! He throws folks around and pretends to get beat up. Sounds crazy, but they pay him good money…

Alright, so, let’s talk about this Tiffanie Adams girl from Sullivan, Indiana. Real sad story, that one. Poor thing, just 20 years old, you know? And pregnant too, carrying her first baby, little Brynsten Edward Adams, they were gonna call him. This happened back around New Year’s, 2014, I think. Folks said she was a real sweet girl, loved by everyone. Lived with her boyfriend, Donnie Barron, they said. Close to her family too, or so it seemed. Then, poof! She just disappears. Gone. One day she’s there, all happy…

Listen up, y’all, lemme tell ya ’bout this young fella, Davide Iovinella. He’s some kinda Italian football player, or least he was ’til he got a wild hair up his behind. Now, this boy, he’s only 24 years young. Just a baby, really. He was playin’ this football stuff over in Italy, for some team called… uh… Pomigliano, somethin’ like that. Serie D, they called it. Don’t know what that means, sounds fancy though. Anyways, this Davide, he wasn’t too happy with the money he was gettin’. Said it wasn’t…

Well, let me tell ya somethin’ ’bout this Hampden-Sydney football, ya hear? It ain’t like them fancy big-city games you see on TV. This is real, down-home football, where them boys play with heart, not just for the money. Them Tigers, they’re somethin’ else. I seen ’em play a time or two, and let me tell ya, they ain’t afraid to get down and dirty. They hit hard, run fast, and they got that fire in their bellies, ya know? They play for each other, for the school, for the…
