In Eckleburg's Eyes - 9/2/2008

I spent Labor Day evening watching a miserable football game with my father. As always, I watched the Tennessee football with dad. As you can tell from the opening line, we lost in overtime to UCLA, 27-24. My thoughts on the game will be posted under “A View from 315A”. This is the university flag which is still proudly displayed outside of our home.

Both dad and I passed on many Labor Day/football parties to be together. It is our bonding time and our friends seem to understand that. Thanks to SMA, JDM, JBT, and MPW for invitations. Special thanks to the Montgomery family who held a party that kept my beloved mother out of the house during the entire first half.

Despite the loss, it was great to be with Dad.

In other Monday news, JTH returned safely from his Georgia vacation. He was especially impressed with a dining experience he had at Ted’s Montana Grill. The restaurant was founded by mogul Ted Turner and is one of the largest franchises to feature bison on its menu. JTH was impressed because their bathrooms were equipped with borax. Yes, JTH liked the restaurant based primarily upon its cleaning supplies!
