After today, like Jim, I'm done with the subject. Wanna talk baseball? ... Ha! I'm done with that subject also. I did my taxes myself. Fifty or so positions but no MLPs in the IRA. Go Nats!

"Some guy just wrote an article, the verdict is in, it's safe to put MLP's in your IRA and he based it on the fact he didn't have enough UBTI this year." Just my opinion that the guy is pretty well all wet. His analysis is based on so little info. I was trying to be done talking MLPs long ago. I am now. I don't care if someone says Santa delivers them. lol! Baseball. I used to be such a fan. Start booing now. lol! Yankees fan, which in my area comes with being an Oriole hater, and vice versa. For whatever reason I flipped on a game last night. I know it is grapefruit league time, but I didn't know any of the first six batters the Yanks sent to the plate. I used to love pro football, now I could care if they play. When someone mentions Nascar I always ask if they are still driving counterclockwise. lol! In talking to other friends of the same age, we seem to evolve over time. Many no longer "love" what they used to, but do "love" things they never thought they would. Used to love hunting with the cousin I invested for. We couldn't wait for the first day of bow season. Now we both have all the time to go but aren't interested. We would catch a big can of nightcrawlers, get up with the sun, and follow a local creek for miles catching fish after fish and throwing them back. Our parents knew we would be home sometime after dark. Haven't been fishing together in over 25 years. I think since it falls in the winter, and doesn't conflict with my gardening time, College basketball ( go Heels! ) is about the only sport I watch. I like to watch the players "grow up". Never even watched college basketball until a guy from Carlisle, just north of here was a local sensation. He was easy to track as the Heels are often on tv. I've watched a lot of Heels grow up since then. As a collegian, Lebo was a 4 year starter(1986–1989) while playing for legendary coach Dean Smith at the University of North Carolina.
