Laura is allergic to you

Laura went to the allergist yesterday. They did the scratch test on her again. She is still violently allergic to peanuts. She was upgraded to a regular epipen. They decided she was also allergic to ragweed, grass, cats, and anything else. The good news is she is allergic to cats! Woohoooo! Another reason to avoid pets.

Ahhh Crudola

Word on the street is that the FBI is about to arrest a NBA referee for fixing games. Apparently the ref had a gambling problem and ended up owing some mobsters more money than he could pay and this was his way out. 10 bucks says he ends up swimming with the fishes. The problem will be figuring if it was Stern's guys that did it or the mobsters. People are ruining the game that I loved. Sheesh I feel like a hockey fan.

A double full rainbow




Oh and Burrill, I'm not cool enough to use photoshop. These are all natural! Well, if digital can be called natural.

"I do have a day job"

I'm not a huge baseball fan. But I'm a huge sports fan. So sometimes it's spills over into baseball. I've not been a fan of Bud Selig, MLB commissioner, for a while. I think he's made some bonehead decisions. This quote is one of his more boneheaded quotes. He was asked if he would be there to see Barry Bonds break the record for home runs hit in a career and he said, "All of this will have to be played by ear. I do have a day job". What? This is the guy that's supposed to be talking me into watching baseball and he's too busy to do it? You know what Bud? I have a day job too. Thanks for reminding me that watching baseball isn't that important and that I need to have my priorities straight. I'll skip the game too.

Thank you may I have another?

Oh man. I hurt still today. Last night one of my youth group kids called me up and talked me into trying to make the wall at Pixie. Pixie is a little restaurant in Mt. Pleasant that serves burgers, coney dogs, fries, shakes, that sort of thing. They put your name on the wall if you eat 10 burgers or 6 coneys. The burgers are smaller than your normal burger. But 10 is a lot. And the problem is that I'm already on the wall. I did it a few years ago with other youth group kids. I went. I ate. I ate. I felt sick. I gave up after 7. In my defense I ate a couple of pieces of pizza right before the kid called. And there's not as much motivation if you're already on the wall. So yes, I wimped out.

Oh man I finally found a cd that I've been looking for forever. The 77s cds are pretty rare for some reason. I found this one used for about $20 with shipping on Amazon. That's the best price I've seen it for on there before. The only one that Amazon has that's new costs $50. One of the 77s cds listed on Amazon is listed at $219.99. It's outrageous. I wish they'd either reprint these cds or sell through itunes. But I'm loving it as I listen to it. The cd is commonly known as Pray Naked. But when the album came out in 1992 they wouldn't let them name the album that. In fact that song's title is blanked out on the back of the cd! Good stuff though. I'll be spin doctoring it in the near future.

A rolling stone gathers no moss

Sorry it's been a while since I posted but it's been busy. This last weekend I was sick. A nice fever. I missed a wedding and an open house. But I've made up for it. I don't work an hourly thing but I've put in 25 hours in the last two days. Yesterday supper was a peanut butter and jelly sandwich in the church van. So I may be right back in the sick house. I get a couple of days off in a row though because of the holiday. I did get to stop and watch a bald eagle chase a hawk for about 5 minutes. The hawk had a fish or small animal in it's talons. The eagle wanted whatever the hawk had. For as long as I was able to watch the hawk evaded the eagle. I love creation.
