Thoughts While Shaving35 degrees at 5:30 a.m. today.

Mostly cloudy today with a high near 55. A 30% chance of showers tonight, with a low around 43. Monday, sunny, with a high near 60 and windy … Mostly clear Monday night … with a low 32. Next best chance of rain, Thursday night and Friday … In the 50% to 60% chance range.

Last week of regular season play in the NFL. A couple of games yesterday … Jacksonville Jags over Titans 20-16 and KC Chiefs beat the Raiders 31-13. Today’s games include Panthers at Saints … and Rams vs. Seahawks … Larrell Murchison of Elizabethtown should be seeing action in the Rams’ game…

ACC basketball results…
NC State 80 – Louisville 72.
Duke 65 – Boston College 64
UNC 81 – Notre Dame 64
Wake Forest 80 – Louisville 72
Clemson 75 – Pittsburgh 74.

More NFL and ACC action today…

NC Sen. Richard Burr (R) did not seek re-election … Was in D.C. for many years, mostly, highly honorable … Did get a slap on the wrist for inside trading on the stock exchange … found not guilty … A quote I agree with as he departs the US Senate … “Nobody wins in impeachment … Congress should resist the temptation to trial impeachment” … One of his friends across the aisle reminded all that Sen. Burr does not wear socks … (for what it’s worth). I liked Sen. Burr … not that he was concerned about it.
