Tuesday, October 27, 2009 at 6:16PM Former University of Kentucky basketball icon Richie Farmer say's he is considering a run for governor on the Republican ticket.
The shooting guard on the legendary 1992 UK team dubbed "The Unforgettables" said Tuesday he has been "in discussions" about a possible run.
"I'm looking at options and seeing what people are saying," said Farmer, who is now serving his second term as state agriculture commissioner. "We may look at doing a poll a little later on."

Kentucky returns to Southeastern Conference action this week against Mississippi State for its Homecoming matchup. Last week, UK defeated the ULM 36-13 to record its 17th consecutive nonconference victory, matching the school-record streak previously set from 1954-60.
Against the Warhawks, UK scored 28 first-half points – the most in an opening half in over two seasons. Fullback John Conner led the offense by scoring two touchdowns, one on the ground and one through the air. Conner tallied a career-high 46 yards rushing including a career-long 37-yard gallop. Randall Cobb led the Cats in all-purpose yards with 152 markers, including a 73-yard punt return for a touchdown in the first quarter and an 11-yard scoring run in the second quarter.
UK’s defense held ULM to its lowest point total of the season at 13. The Wildcat defenders posted a total of seven tackles-for-loss in the game, a season high. UK’s three interceptions were the most in a game since the 2008 season opener at Louisville. Linebacker Danny Trevathan led the team in tackles for the second straight game, charting eight stops.
MSU is coming off a loss to No. 1 Florida 29-19 at home. Last year UK edged the Bulldogs in Starkville 14-13 thanks in part to Matt Roark’s block of an MSU PAT attempt in the fourth quarter

Monday, October 26, 2009 at 7:15AM All you need in this life is ignorance and confidence, and then success is sure. Mark Twain
Sunday, October 25, 2009 at 10:08AM Too many people put off something that brings them joy just because they haven't thought about it, don't have it on their schedule, didn't know it was coming or are too rigid to depart from their routine.
I got to thinking one day about all those people on the Titanic who passed up dessert at dinner that fateful night in an effort to cut back. From then on, I've tried to be a little more flexible.
How many women out there will eat at home because their husband didn't suggest going out to dinner until after something had been thawed? Does the word "refrigeration" mean nothing to you?
How often have your kids dropped in to talk and sat
in silence while you
watched 'Jeopardy' on television?
I cannot count the times I called my sister and
said, "How about going to
lunch in a half hour?" She would gas up and stammer, "I can't. I have clothes on the line. My hair is dirty. I wish I had known yesterday, I had a late breakfast, It looks like rain". And my personal favorite: "It's Monday." She died a few years ago. We never did have lunch together.
Because Americans cram so much into their lives, we tend to schedule our
headaches. We live on a sparse diet of promises we
make to ourselves when
all the conditions are perfect!
We'll go back and visit the grandparents when we get
Steve toilet-trained.
We'll entertain when we replace the living-room carpet. We'll go on a second honeymoon when we get two more kids out of college.
Life has a way of accelerating as we get older. The days get shorter, and
the list of promises to ourself gets longer. One morning, we awaken, and all we have to show for our lives is a litany of "I'm going to," "I plan on," and "Someday, when things are settled down a
bit."
When anyone calls my 'seize the moment' friend, she
is open to adventure and
available for trips. She keeps an open mind on new
ideas. Her enthusiasm
for life is contagious. You talk with her for five
minutes, and you're
eady to trade your bad feet for a pair of
Rollerblades and skip an elevator
for a bungee cord.
My lips have not touched ice cream in 10 years. I
love ice cream. It's
just that I might as well apply it directly to my
stomach with a spatula and
eliminate the digestive process. The other day, I
stopped the car and
bought a triple-decker. If my car had hit an
iceberg on the way home, I
would have died happy.
Now...go on and have a nice day. Do something you
WANT to...not something
on your SHOULD DO list. If you were going to die
soon and had only one phone
call you could make, who would you call and what
would you say?...and why
are you waiting?
Make sure you read this to the end
Have you ever watched kids playing on a merry go
round or listened to the
rain lapping on the ground? Ever followed a
butterfly's erratic flight or
gazed at the sun into the fading night? Do you run
through each day on the
fly? When you ask "How are you?", do you hear the
reply?
When the day is done, do you lie in your bed with
the next hundred chores
running through your head? Ever told your child,
"We'll do it tomorrow."
And in your haste, not see his sorrow? Ever lost
touch? Let a good
friendship die? Just call to say "Hi"?
When you worry and hurry through your day, it is
like an unopened
gift....Thrown away.... Life is not a race. Take it
slower. Hear the music
before the song is over.
"Life may not be the party we hoped for... but
while we are here we might
as well dance!"
Sunday, October 25, 2009 at 9:49AM I went past the field of the sluggard, past the vineyard of the man who lacks judgment; thorns had come up everywhere, the ground was covered with weeds, and the stone wall was in ruins. I applied my heart to what I observed and learned a lesson from what I saw: A little sleep, a little slumber, a little folding of the hands to rest -- and poverty will come on you like a bandit and scarcity like an armed man.
Proverbs 24:30-34
Saturday, October 24, 2009 at 11:48AM O God of love, compassion, and healing,
look on us, people of many different faiths
and traditions,
who gather today at this site,
the scene of incredible violence and pain.
We ask you in your goodness
to give eternal light and peace
to all who died here
the heroic first-responders:
our fire fighters, police officers,
emergency service workers, and
Port Authority personnel,
along with all the innocent men and women
who were victims of this tragedy
simply because their work or service
brought them here on September 11, 2001.
We ask you, in your compassion
to bring healing to those
who, because of their presence here that day,
suffer from injuries and illness.
Heal, too, the pain of still-grieving families
and all who lost loved ones in this tragedy.
Give them strength to continue their lives
with courage and hope.
We are mindful as well
of those who suffered death, injury, and loss
on the same day at the Pentagon and in
Shanksville, Pennsylvania.
Our hearts are one with theirs
as our prayer embraces their pain and suffering.
God of peace, bring your peace to our violent world:
peace in the hearts of all men and women
and peace among the nations of the earth.
Turn to your way of love
those whose hearts and minds
are consumed with hatred.
God of understanding,
overwhelmed by the magnitude of this tragedy,
we seek your light and guidance
as we confront such terrible events.
Grant that those whose lives were spared
may live so that the lives lost here
may not have been lost in vain.
Comfort and console us,
strengthen us in hope,
and give us the wisdom and courage
to work tirelessly for a world
where true peace and love reign
among nations and in the hearts of all.
--Pope Benedict XVI

Friday, October 23, 2009 at 2:44PM University of Kentucky freshman basketball player John Wall is facing NCAA eligibility questions related to whether his amateur status has been compromised.
The eligibility of Mississippi State freshman Renardo Sidney also is being examined.
Neither the University of Kentucky nor Mississippi State is under investigation for wrongdoing.
According to NCAA guidelines, penalties for players who accept benefits from an agent can range from a denial of eligibility to a suspension and reimbursement for the benefits received.
The university of Kentucky released a statement saying it “will not comment on the academic or eligibility status of any UK student-athlete. … All University of Kentucky student-athletes are considered eligible unless it is noted otherwise.”
