That's the best play we can think of?

Posted on 7:23 AM by Unknown
What a fine and tiring weekend.

Packers - so you watched the game and said "wow - Packer offense looked sort of out of whack - I'm concerned". Well - if the offense can look sluggish and out of whack and score 27 points and win. I'm happy.

What really concerned me was when Vick started the 2nd half. I told DJ I was concerned. You create a defense against a certain QB and then the other team has a completely different scrambling QB. Problems will happen.

I had to laugh on that 4th down play that basically ended the game and Andy Reid is looking at the playbook thinking "that is the best play we could come up with?"

Clay Mathews is the Cover Boy in the USA Today. Remember - he is who we got in compensation for Favre. Speaking of Favre - he is getting RAILED on in the Minnesota Newspapers. Pin this loss on Favre's belated arrival   

And from reports I have heard from the Viking broadcasters are very unhappy with entire Favre's attitude.

And the Cowboys lost - what a wonderful football weekend - except for balderdahs  being ahead of me in a football pool.

I attended the Main Street Sun Prairie Art Fair and was surprised that people who saw my work in Starbucks actually drove to Sun Prairie to see more.  In fact the person who is in charge of post cards for the State Capitol is considering my Cap images for the new postcards for our State Capitol. 

I had my best show yet selling 21 images. I had one woman tell me some of my work looked like Thomas Kinkade. One of my coworkers said that was meant to be an insult (like the woman that once said my work looked like paint by numbers).   One thing I have to start doing more of is signing my stuff as people kept making me take things out of packages and signing.

Next stop -Green Lake for a big big show on September 25-26.  I'm a little concerned about how much "product" I'll need.  If I sold 21 images in a 2000 att. show - this next one is 10,000.

Columbus News from Steve Sobiak.  Some of it I understand.

Napoli Pizza and Pasta, 128 E. James St,  (former James Street Dining Co) is expected to open September 20.

Recent new business openings in downtown Columbus include Cheese Heads Pizza, Just the Number Accounting Firm, Odd Fellows, and the Black Kettle Restaurant and Bar -- managed by the owner of the former Dos Gringos Restaurant in Ripon that closed this past year.   Also something about the white and pink former Firemen’s Tavern building on E. James Street.

 Watch for a new ice cream, cheese and country craft, along with other exciting handcrafted furniture items, to open in downtown Columbus in the coming months.
 In the I'm not sure what this is category 
This past month, I have met with a number of individuals interested in starting or supporting a ‘community cannery’ in Columbus. Such a business or cooperative enterprise would have some synergy with the Columbus  community garden, and the area’s  sustainable local agriculture community, including Kathy Raatz’s new business. A downtown location is being considered.

This is real funny.


Gotta run and meet someone
Have a great Monday
