You aren't supposed to stand face-to-face with dogs because it intimidates them. I know you can't help that but it's probably why he rolled you.

I did. He was running full speed and jumped right into my chest, tough guy. I instinctively put my hand down on my chest to shield, and that's when he got my pinky.

At that point I was out of there.

-Did you try to disorient the dog as he approached? That would've helped.

-Put Big Bertha out by Nicholasville Rd. where the sign used to be. Run the CWS sound system through it so the entire city can hear the booming baritone voice of Carl Nathe when there's a "TOUCHDOWN KENTUCKY", IMO.

-Wife tried to pick Hall's on the River for her birthday lunch over the weekend. Then she looked at review sites. Whew, avoided that catastrophe. Stella's instead. Nice little place.

-Versailles' new DEATH STAR KROGER is as good as advertised. Was worried that all the fancypants stuff they have in the Lexington stores would be a bit too much for our town, but they've wisely downplayed that angle and emphasized things like socks, smokes, and several different kinds of ham. Pretty sweet to have an Athenian Grill gyro stand in there, too.

You should've turned around and presented your anal glands to the dog. A few sniffs and dry humps later, and you would have parted ways as dog bros. Opportunity missed.

^ Place looked huge.

Oh, forgot to mention the decades (seemingly) long construction on 64 to Lex is over. May have been for awhile, dunno, but it was a nice surprise on our trip down Saturday.

Makes for a much more pleasant trip to Lexington, for sure.

Sounds like Cal has cooled on Kobi Simmons...he hasn't played well all summer and we are most likely going to get another year out of Ulis, makes sense. Especially if Monk can give us some minutes at the point.

Sign Monk and Fultz/Alkins, then call it a day with guards.

Summer TV Rec: Bachelor in Paradise aka ***** Island starts next week.

They send fame whoring castoffs from The Bachelor/Bachelorette to an island in Mexico. Everyone just gets drunk and bangs everyone else in a desperate attempt to remain on TV and find fame...err love. It's completely shameless with lots of drunk, bikini clad smoke shows.

They have dropped the pretense of "finding the one". It's just a contest to see who can stay on the show the longest. There's always an odd number of people and whoever doesn't pair off (hook up) with someone is sent packing. The best part is they bring in more people every week and the power shifts from the men to the women from week to week based upon whichever sex is outnumbered. Brilliant. Amazing trash TV.

"Paradise Hotel" was great, great TV. The only reality show my wife and I actually made appointment television. What made it so great was the fact it clearly was making up new rules every week. That and the guy from Boston that everyone hated.

A complete and blatant ripoff of "Paradise Hotel," i.e., the greatest reality show ever. In other words - I'm all for it.


Anyone else remember Temptation Island that was on Fox in the early 2000s? IIRC, the goal of the show was to get people to cheat on their spouses. Just came right out and said it. [laughing].

Oh, and you can't forget Joe Millionaire, where they tricked tricks into thinking they were landing a millionaire. Good stuff!

There was one more recent show where the contestants sort of thought the bachelor was Prince Harry

The girl Mandy on that show when to my high school. I thought her younger sister was the hotter of the two.

Loved that show, highly entertaining. The first season, one of the main dudes was a bartender in Scottsdale at Sanctuary. (The dark haired guy with the red head girlfriend.)

Dude hated me, I'd have a few collides and badger him about who he really nailed, try to get all kinds of behind the scenes info. Seemed he didn't really enjoy his experience on temptation island.

Paradise Hotel was fantastic. Ruined all other reality shows for the most part. Only watched the one Joe Millionaire, I think, with the tall fat guy that's in a lot of commercials and the cute teacher they duped.

Joe Schmo, FTW. Dude was the only one who thought he was on a reality show, and everybody else was an actor. Kristen Wiig was one of the actors before anybody knew who she was.

73, our best players last year came from south Lexington, they've got a great development program. I don't have to do anything with them fundamentally other than little tweaks. You can definitely tell a difference in those kids...

Temptation Island was great...so was "My Big Fat Obnoxious Fiance," where the chick basically lied, tricked, deceived, and devastated her own family for several weeks in order to win a quarter of a million bucks.

HM: "Moment of Truth" where they hooked contestants up to a lie detector and asked them 100 questions. That show ruined dozens of marriages, careers, lives.

The Joe Schmo Show was great.

They had one "real guy" set up with eight actors who are playing every crazy stereotype to the hilt with ridiculous competitions.

And most actors are very dumb and almost blow the whole thing several times as seen in the behind-the-scenes production story line.

Really surprised someone hasn't pulled this yet.

11 gay men and 1 straight man are locked in a house, like in Big Brother. The object for the gay men is to find out who is straight. Once a week someone gets voted off, until 2 men are left, or the straight man is identified. If the gays manage to vote the straight guy off, they win 1 million dollars. If the straight man is among the last 2 people in the house in the end, he wins 1 million dollars.

Now here's the twist: None of the men are actually gay, they just all think they are the straight man.

"Needle in a Gaystack." Boom - give me a producer credit.

They just did a newer season a couple years ago where the pretense of the show the guy thought he was on was becoming America's next great bounty hunter. It had Lorenzo Lamas playing a ridiculous version of himself as one of the contestants and a dude who played a city cop in Super Troopers who was the resident a-hole. The fact he was in Super Troopers almost ruined the whole thing day one.

It was fantastic.
