    Now why is Lt. Dan presenting the Governor’s Cup on Saturday????

    Lt. Dan is near the end of the trail, politically. With little to gain, I’d say Lt. Dan is coming to the game– he gets great seats & most important he wants to be there, so to speak…

    Will he be cheered or booed? Hopefully Cheered…

    Now if the governor showed with Jerry, would that be a risky proposition???

    Maybe…

    I misread the headline “Mongiardo Leaving His Hidey Hole In Frankfort”

    I read it to be he was moving from Frankfort to somewhere else

    Duh!!!

    Boom, I took that headline as an explanation as to why Allison has been so cranky lately.

    I’m surprised DanMon didn’t have her dancing on the table at the state fair ham auction.

    Need to wonder if he will run for Governor.That is the talk.They will not out work him.

    I have heard from 2 different people that Lt. Dan was going to run. It all comes down to getting the right Lt. Gov.

    Apparently he is going to try and bring balance to the Force.
