The Long National Lentmare

 Susan and I got up at seven this morning and had a beer. Lent is over and we needed a beer. I'll have another later. I'm not sure how much good Lent did for me this year in relation to weight loss. Of course, weight loss is not the reason to observe Lent but it's a nice by-product.

I started at 230 pounds and weighed in this morning at 221. I got as low as 216. I would have liked to get to 210. I'm going to continue to observe to No Sugar, No Grain Keto diet, but not as strictly. 

The Gonzaga University basketball team made it into the NCAA Championship game last night. They beat UCLA by three points at the buzzer in a nail biter of a game. The lead changed several times and the Zags never held a commanding lead.

The win came at the end of the first overtime when UCLA was down by two and had the ball with seconds left. They made their shot, tying the game at 90. Gonzaga now had 2.4 seconds to make a basket. It was passed to Jalen Suggs who put up a shot from nearly half court that drained into the basket.

The bar were we watched the game erupted. It was really amazing. I should also mention that the place where we watched was not even close to observing any Covid restrictions. Every table was full even though they are supposed to be at 50% capacity.

Don't get me wrong. I'm not complaining. I think the restrictions have been too severe and really capricious. It was nice to see the place full and having a good night of business. Because of the severity and capriciousness, I'm not naming the establishment.
