Burn'in down the house!

Posted on 5:49 AM by Unknown
Can you say 18 IN A ROW??

The Indianapolis colts and New England Patriots hold the record for longest winning streaks at 21. The Packers will break the all-time NFL Record IF they beat The Lions on New Years day.

I had the opportunity to attend a house burning. Here in Columbus to help the fire department they have a random drawing every year and the family that get's the closest to the number has their house burned down. Now don't get upset as this spurs the economy and gives the fire department. It was one of Walkers ideas to create jobs.



JOSH - BEHIND YOU - LOOK BEHIND YOU!!!!

Who brought the marshmallows

Friday night I went to The Harmony Bar in Madison a middle class working trendy left leaning CHEERS type place with awesome food.  I was meeting some long lost friends.  We had played on the same softball team for 21 years in the #2 league in Madison.  The team was the thing that tied us all together and started 1976. 

Well!  As I was waiting a father brought in his maybe 5 year old and as they passed the pool table the kid stopped in his tracks, looked at the table and said "DADDY, WHAT IS THAT"  Dad says "It's a pool table".  "WHAT DOES IT DOO!!!"

a little while later dad with daughter and kid come out to look at the table.

"But, where do the balls GO!"

So - since Cain has "suspended" his campaign (is this like hiatus?) the beneficiary seems to be Newt who is the greatest threat to the institution of marriage in human history.   Let's see, he divorced his 1st wife on her death bed so he could marry his mistress, who he later cheated on and divorced so he could marry the current Mrs. Gingrich, his Tiffany's Princess, Callista.


MAKE HER STOP!!!!

BCS DECLARES GERMANY WINNER OF WORLD WAR II
USA Ranked 4th

After determining the Big-12 championship game participants, the BCS computers were put to work on other major contests and today the BCS declared Germany to be the winner of World War II.

"Germany put together an incredible number of victories beginning with the annexation of Austria and the Sudentenland and continuing into conference play with defeats of Poland,France, Norway,Sweden, Denmark, Belgium and the Netherlands. Their only home losses came against the USA and Russia; however considering their entire body of work--including an incredibly tough Strength of Schedule (SOS)-our computers deemed them worthy of the #1 ranking."

Questioned about the #4 ranking of the United States the BCS commissioner stated :The US only had two major victories--Japan and Germany. The computer models, unlike humans, aren't influenced by head-to-head contests--they consider each contest to be only a single, equally-weighted event."

German Chancellor Adolph Hitler said "Yes, we lost to the US; but we defeated #2 France in only six weeks." Herr Hitler has been criticized for seeking dramatic victories to earn "style points" to enhance Germany's rankings. Hitler protested "Our contest with Poland was in doubt until the final day and the conditions in Norway were incredibly challenging and demanded the application of additional forces."

The French ranking has also come under scrutiny. The BCS commented"France had a single loss against Germany and following a preseason #1 ranking, they only fell to # 2."

Japan was ranked #3 with victories including Manchuria, Borneo and the Philippines. United States coach Harry Truman was criticized for bad taste for scheduling a "politicking" during the halftime of the Germans bombing of Great Britain. A US fan also made the point that "The German's got too many style points for their sexy offense which continues to obliterate weaker opponents and show off their might after the battle is won. But what about defense ?
