The patron saint of genital disease

Posted on 8:36 PM by Unknown
Since my classic FAIL with the Stoughton Art Fair I've been watching for more FAILS.

Here is a String Bass FAIL!!!

Just in case you were looking for a real collectors item The Severed head of patron saint of genital disease on sale.

I kid you not - read the link if you are interested at all! LINK  I wasn't. I mean come on - how many severed head/genital disease people do you really need to read about!

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

Seems an odd thing has happened to your BBQ.  Prices are going way up and not the reason you would suspect.  Not because of raising gas prices . BECAUSE OF CORN.  More and more farmers are putting their corn into you your gas tank in the form of ethanol.  This means more and more crop space is being use for GAS CORN and not food!

Corn on the Cob  has almost double in price since last year and because of ethanol the trend will continue.  sigh 
 -----------------------------------

This last week things are really popping in the yard so it's time for some yard photos.

 

On the left is a Pink Princess Weigela, next to the stairs are Goldmound Spirea and the pink near the middle is Rocky Soapwort.


Goldmound Spirea, Rocky Soapwort with a Sweet Autumn Clematis climbing up the trellis (at some point) and wonderful Variegated European Dogwood.  Periwinkle is under the deck an is seeing it's last BIG flowering days I fear but will have purple flowers on and off the entire summer.  OH LOOK - DJ in the background!! 


So many things going here it's crazy but it's only the first burst of color! Something should be flowering all summer.






As luck would have it the Sweet Woodruff which we have successfully separated and planted in 6 more spots goes well with the Red Chokeberry which has the most amazing fragrance ever!  Seriously - I can smell it in my room as I type!  
-----------------
I was golfing last week at the Columbus Country Club and there is a house that I LOVE the landscaping in the front yard and as I walked up the fairway I saw the backyard and a older guy was working on the lawn.

We stopped and talked and long story short, him and another old dude were the guys that bricked our house!

Here is the back of his house

OH - the Columbus High School was build in 1957 it seems.

I'm writing this Monday night because I need to have blood work in the morning so I'm fasting. No way in hell am I going to wait any longer then I have to.  I've never been a good faster.  Last time I only fasted for like 7 hours and when they got the results back they thought I was about to die  or something, I had so much sugar in my blood.   FASTING FAIL!!! 

They had me on a new diet and seeing life style change specialists and I was going WAIT WAIT there is an explanation (although I did say that through a sugar donut so they did not understand what I was saying).

  Speaking of donuts - ever try grilling those powered sugar donuts on the grill?  I saw a grilling competition where a guy did it and the judges loved them.  YEA - I'm DOING IT!!!!  Along with grilled pineapple!

Gotta go to bed - I'm getting hungry - I must fast!!!

----------

OH - this morning  WATER HEATER - FAIL!!!!   damn it.
