Flinger

Because of the massive amount of "stuff" I've gotten since the October preload of entries I am going to up the number of things (?) that will be on each entry through December.. The number was around 15 and I'm thinking they will be increased by nearly twice the amount or thirty..  Somewhere in that number, except for Sundays which will still be in the five to nine music videos area, depending on my mood..

The "coaching carousal" starts for college coaches this week and next then the pro teams start the clearing house next month or January (happy new year).. My memory of when they got rid of Callahan at Nebraska was they knew Osbourn was gonna fire him shortly after the final game against Colorado.. Fast forward to this year and the rumours running rampant of Polini leaving after this year are running rampant.. But what people should look at is the Colorado situation.. They still haven't righted the ship this many years after letting McCartney go...  I think it would be a tough place to coach because it is tough to fight for a place in the state where the Broncos rule, and have for decades.. Their latest dismissal of Embree makes them have a "revolving door" on the head coaching job and it reminds me of what the said about Oklahoma just before they got Stoops, and even when they got Stoops I thought he would be there for five to seven years and then move on.. It's something you don't want to see, a coach be there for five years and then move on.. They say turning a program around is easy, keeping it that way is the hard part.. Urban Myer at Ohio State, they say he will be there until he retires from coaching.. I say since he retired once what's to keep him from retiring again shortly..  But with Colorado it will be a tough sell, since they gave Embree two whole years to get things turned around the next coach will have that amount of time.. Except for one thing, Embree had absolutely NO previous coaching experience.. What they thought was a good idea, I don't know.. Bet they get someone with a little experience next time for sure.. Maybe..


We got the renew bill for the satellite radio yesterday and we were sitting around after breakfast this morning and mom starts to talk about the radio.. She really likes listening to hers and says but you don't listen to yours anymore and I tell her I do listen to it, I listen to it overnight..  And then the thing she didn't know that I know or am pretty sure I told her that the reason I listen to it all night is because I can't have total silence... Because of the ringing in my ears, and she acted like she hadn't heard me say this before.. How long has this been this way??  Since about two years before dad passed away.. She seemed totally stunned.. Truth is I don't let on about half the things that bother me.. The other thing that hurts me is my arms.. Remember the first time my shoulder popped out of the socket was by the clothesline back when I was still in high school and I pulled the rope on the mower.. You tend to not forget little things like that.. It's why I started trying to be ambidextrous, using my left arm on equal.. So that's why I started to start the mower left handed, until of course my left arm popped out.. You just don't forget that feeling, it popped out and right back in and hurt like hell for a week.. But my ears started to ring one morning as I was getting up.. It was just there, but would steadily get worse until I couldn't sleep without the tv being on all night.. That evolved to the radio about six or seven years ago..  I tried a sort of mp3 player two years ago but was trying hypnosis programs to ease my ability to sleep and help with my anxiety towards large crowds.. Neither worked the way I was hoping although the anxiety towards large crowds worked incredibly well one time as I went into Walmart and saw nobody there.. Were they open or was this a dream.. That happened twice but hasn't since.. The sleeping hypnosis didn't work quite the way I was hoping either but.. Thankfully I stopped doing that..   My favorite show to listen to is Bob & Tom.. I'm addicted to that show.. They are NUTS..  They are like  a clean version of the Opie & Anthony show which I also like when they interview people they are the best.. But Bob & Tom are just off the wall.. Kind of a little like the Monsters in the morning, but not as frantic..

(P.S.  a little extra on the "tinitis"  thing.. Yes my ears have this continuous insistent ringing in my ears and neither  is worse than the other, but make no mistake, I can still hear quite well.. as an example, mom has her phone turned up as loud as she can to hear the conversation and while she is talking to someone on the phone I can hear the conversation, the person she is talking to, very clearly while she is in the front room or the kitchen and I am on the computer.. The worst part about having still quite good hearing is being in the local walmart and the occasional cart with that extremely high pitched squeaky wheel..  Unnerves me... )
