This is a quick stitch job showing the small bathroom as it exists now. The contractor sasy he can start work a week from tomorrow and we are getting ready. All we have left to buy is 2 new toilets, a tub for the other bath and light bulbs for the new fixtures. The tile is on order and should be here mid-week. The last faucet is in the Greensboro UPS hub, so it will be here Tuesday. I see a lot of chatter about the US coming into a recession. Donna and I are gallantly trying to stave it off because in our household consumer spending is definitely on the upswing. You can thank us later.
The 2008 NCAA Men’s Basketball Final Four is all set. Usually there are three #1 seeds playing with one upstart on the last weekend. The final four has featured only two number one seeds 5 times and has had zero one-seeded teams twice, 1980 and 2006. But this year is the first ever to feature all 4 number one seeds. For the heck of it I ran all eight different permeations of outcomes for the Final Four and of the twenty one people in our office pool there are 13 people with a chance to finish in the money and 8 still with a chance to win the thing. My favorite situation is Kansas beating NC, UCLA beating Memphis with UCLA beating Kansas in the final. If that happens three people would be tied for first so it would come down to the tie breaker, total points in the final game. Two of those three people picked the same total points! Coin toss? Two out of three at Rock, Paper, Scissors?
