Well I don't know about all this but I got my Capital One Bowl Tickets
today. I am going to cheering the Big Red, while my daughter and her
boyfriend will be Woofing it up for the DAWGs next to me. I only hope we
can put a whooping on those inside dogs. You know what they say about
inside dogs, they can't get off the porch to run with the big dogs. LOL.


Bring on them DAWGs!!!!
