Good morning. ⛈️🌩️⚡

15 March 2025

Thunder crashed, shaking the house and jolting me from a deep sleep. It happened right at six, the time I usually wake up. Was it mere coincidence, or do gods conspire to control my days? After brushing my teeth and pulling on my trousers, I opened the bedroom door to find Ben waiting, alone. Clearly, he was frightened by the thunder, seeking the comfort and reassurance of our steadfast companionship. But where was Charlie? He almost always greets me at the bedroom door in the morning. I found him at the back door, anxiously waiting to go outside. The morning urge to relieve oneself is, after all, a biological necessity shared by both dogs and humans.

#Thunder

We gotta rock, rock, party 'til the last shot
Fill that jug and raise your cup up
We gotta chug, chug, better take it non-stop
Hey, come drink until the last drop
So please just let us, burnin' down this place
And we will end up in the hall of fame
Let's get ready for a drinking game
So come and sip until the last drop
Over and over
We're down the river, we're drunk and all of our thumbs went up in the air
Sung it in the wind and sung to the thunder, rollin' over and over

I gave up on the 2nd half and took a nice nap.

Toumani Camara, Jerami Grant, and Anfernee Simons combined to shoot 10 for 39 for the game. Neither Tou or Jerami could hit the proverbial broad side of a barn. Ant could at least make out the rough image of a building.

Thwunk! That's the sound of Blazer shots bouncing off of the rim.

Fwop! That's the sound of Blazer shots completely missing the rim and hitting the floor.

The fans were cheering. "Woo-hoo! They missed again!"

They came out for the 2nd half by successfully duplicating the play that ended the first half in a 19-2 Thunder run.

89-107 final. No 100 point free food for you!

Next up: Pistons and Bill Walton appreciation day at Moda Center on Sunday.

Do optometrists take emergency appointments on Saturdays?

63-45 OKC over Portland at the half. The Blazers completely forgot how to play D in the last 5 minutes. Before then, it was a game. Over and over they attempted 3's they missed. Layups that were blocked. They made lazy passes which were trivially stolen. Bad on O. Bad on D. It looks like a pickup game.

This is a terrible performance by OKC. They should be up by at least 50.
