-5:48 in the morning … good morning everyone … it is Sunday, and I’m awake.

My head is stuffed up, my eyes are runny and I generally feel like crap!  ”Why?” you ask…simple because I’ve got a head cold – and it is a dandy.  Yuck.

-Final score of last nights’ game … Pacers 113 Celtics 104.

-This morning it is a cold 28 degrees outside under clear skies.  Today’s forecast: Partly cloudy in the morning then clearing. Patchy fog early in the morning. Highs 40 to 45. West winds 5 to 10 mph.

Color weather radar this morning shows clear conditions over all of Minnesota.

-Speaking of sports … locally in Minnesota the TWolves lost their 10th straight basketball games last night.

-Today … I assume Steve and I will give each other haircuts -

-The Minneosta Vikings take on the Detroit Lions at the Metro Dome in Minnepolis, MN today at 12:00 noon.

Detroit is 1 and 7, while Minnesota is 7 and 1 – hopefully it will be an easy victory for Minnesota.

It might look like the Vikings quarterback Tarvaris Jackson has been shunted aside with the arrival of Brett Favre, but he’s embracing a valuable opportunity to learn from the master…who has been in the league for about 19 years now.

What a great learning experience to play under one of the all time great quarter backs in the NFL.

We all learn by example, and I think Jackson could learn some valuable life and sport lessons.

-6:24 a.m., and I think I’ll head on out to the kitchen for either some Special K or two waffles and syrup for breakfast.

It’s going to be a long cold day … and I hope by this time tomorrow morning I feel better and my cold is subsiding and I only hope the Vikings will … or this day will go down in history as a bomb.

-Have a great day guys, and be kind.  We will see you back here tomorrow about the same time.
