Birdie picks New Orleans. . . by a nose

Birdie went with a sentimental favorite this morning when we asked her to pick a Super Bowl winner. Before we had a chance to coax her into position and influence her choice, she went directly to the paper with Saints on it and posed. Stan almost missed the picture, (bottom) he was so stunned by the spontaneity . Stan also likes the the Saints, but as a practical, real-world matter has picked the Colts. He's betting a dog biscuit.
It is raining lightly this morning in Tucson. We have a tee time of 9:45. If this were Minnesota, we'd be playing anyway. However, it isn't. So we shall see what the managers declare.
Birdie got her LA clip yesterday in preparation for her poker trip to Los Angeles in mid-February. Kathleen didn't particularly approve the cut applied by the new groomer, but it will always grow back.
By the way, say goodbye to the mauve carpeting. The Big Pink departs Rock Crest Friday morning to be replaced by safe, sound, sale-able doeskin.
