Tis the season to be jolly, for warm and fuzzy feelings, family get-togethers and good will toward men - and for hard hitting grid iron action! And so we've requested everyone's picks for all the BCS Bowl games starting this evening with the Poinsettia Bowl featuring Northern Illinois & TCU. We've even got an Olson chiming in - so shame on you Duncans that didn't get your votes in on time! Maybe we'll give you some leeway if you can still make it before 6:00 this evening when the game starts!
Here are the choices. We'll give a tally of how everyone's scoring periodically throughout the course of the Bowl Season! The person with the most correct picks at the end receives a fabulous Duncan Family No-Prize! Good luck to everyone!

KFC = Klerks Forget Courtesy
I am spitting mad. I mean actually spitting. I'll have to clean that up later. And it all has to do with KFC, ya know the place that decided that if they cut their name back and went with only initials that we, the public, are stupid enough to forget that the word FRIED is in their name. "KFC . . . Look kids, they's a health food joint now, Yeehaw!!!" Back to the spitting mad part.
Last week, Cassie and I decided we wanted a nice chicken dinner after Choir practice (I was having a pretty bad day and hey their chicken isn't fried anymore, so why not?) So I drove up to the drive through in my run down, ramshackle Ford which rattles, hums and spits. If that weren't enough, my car windows no longer roll down so I have to open my door to order and that of course sets off the dinger which "Dings" incessantly reminding me that I left my keys in the car and my lights are on!! So I was speaking a little louder than normal because I was talking over the car, but I was not yelling. Before I got two words out of my mouth the teen on the other end interrupts and says quite rudely:
"Maam, your shouting my ear off so STOP IT" Basically she told me to Shut Up. Me. A customer. So I said back to her. "I'll just go some place else." Granted that's not a really good come back, but I was shocked!! Who taught her how to speak to customers like that. By the time I got home and got really good and mad I called the store and complained to the manager, but I'm sure that did a whole lot of good. So then I called the 800 number to complain to the Colonel himself. After being told that he had passed (God rest his Kentucky Fried Soul) I talked to the next person in charge and was told the complaint would be passed on. Hmph. Probably to the same person I had just talked to earlier at the store. So basically not a whole lot got done. That's when I decided that complaining to them was not the answer. Complaining to everyone else was! Maybe when other people got wind of it, they would think twice about eating at this particular store. They would tell two friends, and they would tell two friends, and so on. . . So I'm telling my two friends and you guys.
The KFC on Lindsey stinks. They are rude, obnoxious and obviously care nothing for their customers. Oh, and by the way, they still fry their chicken . . . I've seen them. Some say a single nut job can't change the world but they have yet to see what this particular Nut Job is capable of . . . Today KFC, tomorrow . . . someplace else that is rude to me. Ah, the power!!!!

How Not to Maintain a Blog
Okay. I admit it. I am not the best organizer in the world. Thank goodness I have a head for numbers that way I do remember birthday's, dentists appointments, weddings, funerals, etc. And usually I can remember the myriad user names and passwords to my various accounts. Call it a gift . . .or a curse (demented musical stinger goes here). The curse is that since I can remember so many things, I neglect to write most things down. LIke my user name and password to this very site. Obviously, I know it now, but I had to jump through a whole bunch of hoops and a circus performer I ain't!!
So I have returned to the Duncan blog. That's means be prepared to experience my weird, goofy and sometimes sadistic brand of blog. Next Blog Subject: Satan Lives in Haileyville . . . Stay tuned.

Ashley with Camera
Snow Day
It does snow in Oklahoma!
I remember growing up and the snow was eight to ten inches deep. On Thursday November 30th we received four to five inches in southwest Oklahoma. Snow drifts were in the 9 to 12 inch range. This snow was very powdery. Jordan the first time she saw it said, "Let's go play out in the sand". Pictures Left to Right: Jordan running in the snow, the blizzard in our back yard, Daddy with Ashley.
