When Mom's Away....

I call this one, "Do something you stupid lion":


...the kiddies play. Grandma, Grandpa, Dad, and Ally at the zoo while Mom works in the Jungle...

This One's for Uncle Matt

My brother Matt(hew) tried to teach this to Ally awhile back. As you can see, I kept the dream alive. This one's for you bro!

This pretty much says it all....

Who's Your Daddy?

Well, I found this picture of Matt and I'd have to say the two of them have the same hairdo.

The Pastor's Ass

The Pastor's Ass

The pastor entered his donkey in a race and
It won.

The pastor was so pleased with the donkey
That he entered it in the race again, and it won again.

The local paper read:

PASTOR'S ASS OUT FRONT

The Bishop was so upset with this kind of publicity that he ordered the pastor not to enter the donkey in another race.

The next day, the local paper headline read:

BISHOP SCRATCHES PASTOR'S ASS

This was too much for the Bishop, so he ordered the pastor to get rid of the donkey. The pastor decided to give it to a nun in a nearby convent.

The local paper, hearing of the news, posted the following headline the next day:

NUN HAS BEST ASS IN TOWN

The Bishop fainted.

He informed the nun that she would have to get rid of the donkey, she sold it to a farmer for $10.
The next day the paper read:

NUN SELLS ASS FOR $10

This was too much for the Bishop, so he ordered the nun to buy back the donkey and lead it to the plains where it could run wild.
The next day the headlines read:

NUN ANNOUNCES HER ASS IS WILD AND FREE

The Bishop was buried the next day.

The moral of the story is: being concerned about public opinion can bring you much grief and misery . . .even shorten your life.

So be yourself and enjoy life.
Stop worrying about everyone else's ass and
You'll be a lot happier and live longer!

Brett Favre & New Kids on the Block

Brett Favre & New Kids on the Block were the discussion on the radio yesterday on my way to work. As you may or may not know, Brett Favre announced his retirement recently. It's a big deal for all the Packers fans here. I don't have time to follow the news so I can't tell what recent world catastrophes are going on, but I could tell you that Brett Favre had retired. A moment of silence for Green Bay's loss...
...but wait! Now there is talk that Brett Favre may have changed his mind. I guess his lawyer or agent or someone contacted the Packers and wanted written consent that they would release him from his contract. Basically saying that if he comes back, he wants to be free to play elsewhere. Now I don't follow sports at ALL, but even I was offended by this gesture. The Packers and Packer fans have supported and essentially worshipped Mr. Favre during his career. And now after all the hullabaloo surrounding his retirement, he says, Well thanks for the party, but I think I'll take it on the road. What a jerk. But I'm happy that the Packers issued a statement that 1. If Brett returns to play NFL football, he is still under contract with them and 2. (my favorite part) if he comes back to play for them, he is not guaranteed his former spot on the team. He will have to compete and try-out for the QB spot. Anyway, the only reason I care is because football is such a big deal here and I'm sick of professional athletes thinking they can do/say/get away with whatever they want.
On another note, New Kids on the Block is back. And awesome. It's like they never left. Except now they're all ripped and tatted up.

Happy Birthday Ally

Look who's 2! Two years have gone by way too fast, and yet thinking back to last year, I think she is more fun than ever! This year she actually enjoyed her presents, whereas last year she was more interested in the wrapping paper!!

My parents have been here for the last week and we are having tons of fun. Dad leaves tomorrow, unfortunately. Mom is staying another week! Matt leaves on Thursday morning for High Adventure scout camp, so that means it will be just the girls this weekend.







Some present highlights: A little table with chairs, a play kitchen, an easel...







...a tricycle, a slide, and a day in the park with friends also turning 2 this month.

My parents and Matt went to the zoo this week. I have pictures of that, but must go to bed. My dad needs to leave here between 3:30 and 4 am. Blech.
