White Boy?

Typically every morning DJ and I jump into the car to go to work and as soon as I turn the key I'm frantically trying to turn down the radio from the high Octane rock station or from the CD with symphonic goth metal death rock. Or sometimes the station is on New Country which does not have to be turned down.

Well . . . today we were taking the other car, the one DJ drives and I jump in and turn on the car and what do I hear "PLAY THAT FUNKY MUSIC WHITE BOY!!"

sigh - I don't even know who my wife is anymore LOL

Remember on Survivor when Shannon's own tribe was yelling SHUT UP SHUT YUP when he was at a tribal council as he was shooting himself in the foot . . .then he was voted out!

Well - Christine O'Donnell, the Tea Party candidate and once front runner for a Senate seat in Delaware had her party yelling SHUT UP SHUT UP a few nights ago at a debate.

O'Donnell, a self professed expert on the constitution and how America needs to be taken back because we are not abiding to the constitution, had a major brain fart.

Democrat Chris Coons said that the First Amendment calls for the separation of church and state.

WHAT?

"The First Amendment does?" O'Donnell asked during the Tuesday morning debate. "Let me just clarify: You're telling me that the separation of church and state is found in the First Amendment?"

At which point the audience started laughing. She also did not know three other Amendments which the Tea Party want to repeal, the 14th Amendment (grants citizenship to every individual born in the United States) the 16th Amendment ( created the Federal Income Tax) and the 17th Amendment (that calls for direct election of U.S. senators . . . before this senators were appointed by the governor).

Now, I don't know all the Amendment's but then again I'm not running for a rather large office in the U.S. Government.

No photos today - some sort of maintenance going on.

Had my flu shot yesterday - I'm thinking it 's a fake as I never felt any pain. Seriously, you could have punched me in the arm and I would have felt only a punch. I think the trick is to be totally relaxed with your arm bent.

DJ had her arm straight which actually tightens muscles (I think) and her shot hurt like a mofo. Mine - I think they just pinched me and said I had a shot.

ALTHOUGH - this morning I do feel a little pain, like a 1 on the pain level chart.

In the summer of 1977 Aerosmith inspected a plane, a Convair 240, that they were considering for an upcoming tour, however they had some issues with the flight crew and decided to look elsewhere.

That plane and crew were then hired by the band Lynyrd Skynyrd. On this date in 1977, due to the lack of fuel which the flight crew somehow missed, the plane crashed killing Ronnie Van Zant, Steve Gaines and Cassie Gaines as well as the band's assistant road manager and the plane's pilot and co-pilot. Twenty other survived.

Minnesota is 3 point favs over the Packers - I'm not seeing that one. Did anyone watch the Viking game? The sort of suck!!! Tickets for the game can be had for between $300 and $850 and there is still one sky box available for $20,000.

Football Outsiders ranks the injured Green Bay as the 12th best team, Minnesota 16th. The Vikings have a pitiful offense and the Packers have Shawn Slocum's pitiful special teams unit. They should fire that dude NOW!!

OH - the Bears are ranked 21.
