I'm going where the water tastes like wine.......

We can jump in the water, stay drunk all the time.......

Scrimmage tonight....Austin ended up with Farve's number. The coach looks at him and said, "you look like a gunslinger" and threw #4 to him.....of course this was after he made a 60 yard touchdown pass that he got yelled at because he should have looked short first...He's been hearing three different things from three different coaches. I'm helpless on this one because I have my own opinion, but it comes down to the coach.....and he doesn't need me to confuse him with wisdom....

Taken last night on the steak ride that I wasn't able to make.....about 5 Kami's made it.....

I like her attitude.

Amazing how bad Ames flooded must be that 100 year flood we had in 93'?? Water floating around the floor of Hilton...awwwww

...and we are suppose to be getting more rain....

Brushed on my 77' football season last night.....I can not believe how much I have forgotten in the last 20 years....even players names and numbers...of course not really that important to my life....

Wolfmother just wasn't plausible yesterday.....

On our way back from Dubuque on Saturday from RAGBRAI we got stuck in traffic on I-80 for over an hour. We just relaxed...I think we gave away a case of beer to the fellow travelers, is that safe? Even if we only gave it to the drivers behind us??

I'm not in the picture, because I took it...and then someone took my chair...

Stephanie bought that 68' Camaro..very nice....

Going to try this sleep thing again tonight...damn thunderstorms have been keeping me up. It hasn't happened for a several weeks.....



I feel for everybody and their basement.......and I mean almost everyone....

WOLFMOTHER is playing in Council Bluffs tonight.......rallying troops to see if anybody is interested...Parents may have to watch the boys.....

This rain is flippen crazy, I want to move south to the Caribbean but I didn't want it to move here at least the jungle aspect..... The yard was mowed yesterday, but by the grill out it will be a small forest again......

Here are some pics from the float trip and July 4th..I think last year. Joe just got them up...I don't see Blaise, but I know he was there.....actually maybe he wasn't..check out the can tree....

Not happening anytime soon as the water is way way too high......

Last two a-day for Austin today...he said it was kinda hot yesterday. I picked him up and he was drenched then we went to his mom's so he could shower. He maid the mistake to allow me to come in and sit in the living room on the couch while he showered. Then his mom came home and riped into me because I was in HER house.. Didn't matter Austin invited me in. She also made it a point that it was her house and not there's....I felt bad for Austin, next time I will just wait outside. I don't consider my house actually mine, it's ours. They have to live there too, but I do have final say though.

On a bright note after the fb meeting last night the ex actually signed me up when they were asking for contact info for the parents. She usually thinks of herself as the only parent. Just another example of her being a semi-normal person that started about 2-3 months ago. She's been dating some guy, so maybe that is helping. Unfortunately she still has a lot of hatred in there......Crappy way to go through life with that.

Scrimmage Thursday, of course Cowboys play that night too....First game Hoover next Friday.

The bus and DMV fiasco is finally finished....

Looks like someone may be going to Russia very soon.

...and someone may be going to Minn. today or tomorrow for an Camaro SS.

Kids Who Watch Popeye Cartoons Eat More Vegetables
Popeye cartoons, tasting parties and junior cooking classes can help increase vegetable intake in kindergarten children, according to new research published in the journal Nutrition & Dietetics. Researchers at Mahidol University in Bangkok found the type and amount of vegetables children ate improved after they took part in a program using multimedia and role models to promote healthy food. Twenty six kindergarten children aged four to five participated in the eight-week study. The researchers recorded the kinds and amounts of fruit and vegetables eaten by the children before and after the program." I can believe it, thats why I eat spinach........
