Yes, I have Mark Knopfler's name permanently entered in my Twitter search function, because I'm such an obsessive fan I must know what people are saying about him at all times. Everything I know I learned from Dire Straits, and I have his Sailing to Philadelphia playing on an endless loop in my head (which explains the typos). And speaking of that Knopfler CD, the Jacksonville Jaguars' theme song this morning is Baloney Again.

Peyton Manning has now led the Colts to seven fourth-quarter comebacks this season, prompting one of the Twitterati today to opine that he should be advising Pres. Obama on economic matters. At any rate, those '72 Dolphins are getting a little nervous right about now, eh? May I suggest a smoke and a little Knopfler Local Hero?

You're a long way from home, don't push your luck too far, it's Friday again ...
