The truth is out!

Posted on 7:42 AM by Unknown
I get to work and have a number of emails informing me that people I work with are all retiring . . .   FRIDAY!  geez- "I'll" be the guy shutting off the lights for Health Services! And I was trying to get out BEFORE everybody else!

But then - I get an email from a Minnesota friend Graham Man and it's all very clear now on Walkers intentions.

In a strange turn of events during a routine investigation of political contributions several large deposits were traced back to Zygi Wilf current owner of the Minnesota Vikings. The unrest in the state of Wisconsin apparently was a distraction to upset the City of Green Bay economic stability to force the public sale of the Green Bay Packers. With the sale of the Packers Zygi Wilf would position himself to purchase the team and bring it to Minnesota to finally get the Super Bowl win he has been obsessed with and apparently will stop an nothing to obtain.

Governor Walker was unable to be reached for comment and rumors are he has left the country! His parting words were "you cant do anything while I am away without my vote!"

----------------------------------------


After the Odd Fellows Brew Clinic was over Saturday I drove home to Kestrel Ridge and decided to see how the protest was going. I could tell that it was waning but still there were about 500 protesters in front of Kestrel Ridge and they were VERY loud!  I could clearly hear them from my house.  Well done Columbus!

When  town of 5000 can get 500+ protesters out on a cold evening - you know a guy is not liked a whole lot.

----------------------------------------------------------
I was thinking of different sports and how the people in that sport think of Union people.  For instance, bowling, I bet most bowlers are pro-union,  Golfers?  Probably some golfers are pro-union but as you get better and better you turn more and more Republican (notice Aduba, like a 5 handicap and voted for Walker . . although he does regret it now).  80% of Pro golfers are Republicans and I think we save Adubya just in time.   Soccer? 98% of soccer players are still not of working age so they don't count .  Polo, now I have to think that polo is probably a Republican sport.   If Union guys played polo it would be on Draft Horses with big long mallets.

This is the only photo I could find of Draft Horse Polo.  I believe these are specially bred horses with incredibly long noses.  They are bred for finding truffles in the ground in France (those chocolates are SO good).  

 Notice it takes two union members per horse which is a union rule. 

OK - since there are only 5 of us left in the room (was 30) I better get to work. 

Cheers!
Rod
