Pause Ponder and Pun


I know they drafted him as a place kicker but I guess they didn't tell him which place to kick.  Okay, that's my effort.  What's yours?

Give it a go and we'll see you back here Saturday with our honourable mentions and a winner.

In between time, why don't you drift on over to Margo at the Screaming Me-Me.  She's an upright kinda gal and always has a great pic to take a kick at.

Good luck!

They don't call them Longhorn steers for nothing.

Regret at the idea of rushing the kicker was the SECOND strongest feeling Jimmy experienced that day.

Everything's bigger in Texas, usually because of the swelling.

This was the day that Josh Richardson's nickname changed from "Mad Dog" to "Squeaks McGee".

Oh crap! I stepped in a pile of lineman. Dude, can you help me get it off my shoe?

But besides that, he did set the all-time NFL record for kicking an opposing player the farthest.

My Back Pages - October

Well, folks, I read seven (count 'em) seven books in October. One I didn't finish but even at that I hit the magic number 50 I estimated for myself by the end of the year. The six books I successfully waded through were, firstly, What Happened, Hillary Clinton's book on her bid for the Presidency. I''m a bit of a political junkie so I get off on this stuff but still it kinda struck me as one long whine over losing. Next up was the excellent Canyon of Dreams: The Magic and Music of Laurel Canyon. Laurel Canyon was the fabled area outside of Los Angeles where many musicians and artists lived. Known as a 60s enclave, the book takes a look at just who lived there over the last 80 years. A fascinating read. Next up was Lightfoot, a biography of Canadian folk singer Gordon Lightfoot.

Nine or so years later when a brother, and a year after that when a sister came along number one son was moving on to Knight Rider and The Dukes of Hazzard.  But there was a nice overlap where his siblings picked up where he had left off with Polka Dot Door.  And Dad was right there to welcome them. So you're looking at a Polka Dot Door veteran.  The show began in 1971 and ran to 1993.  I didn't watch the full run but I did get in my fair share.  The formula was pretty simple.  A young male and female host, which seemed to change every week, sang songs, told stories, made crafts and generally did their best stimulate little brains.  The show opened as follows... Imagination Day!  Oh boy! ...
