SNOW

Posted on 6:47 AM by Unknown
5.1 inches of snow last night   0.68 inches of precipitation.AlfalfaWe are kicking butt in total precipitation compared to the last few years.  The farmers are saying this has been a near perfect winter with snow on the ground for most of the season.  The big worry now is if it rains and there is ponding on alfalfa. Not a clue what that means - farmers speak their own language.       ---------------------DJ...

I have to pitch to the networks.

Posted on 6:20 AM by Unknown
I thought of a fantastic new show that I have to pitch to the networks.  It takes place on the Titanic but here is the catch.  Aboard the ill fated liner are all of you favorite characters on TV. You would have the Modern Family group on one deck and they would have all of the funny disaster jokes, maybe the New Girl cast doing goofy things, Nick would tend bar and Winston would be accidentally pogo-ing passengers. On another part of the...

This and that

Shocking - Mat Gamel is out for the year.  Who could have predicted he would injure himself. Well, there is always next year!---------------------------------WORST HEADLINE IN HISTORYThe Wisconsin State Journal had a bottom of the page headline.Murder charge stalls Pistorius' career. How about Murder stalls Steenkamp's life.  Who gives a rats ass about Pistorius's career.  He shot Steenkamp four times through a locked bathroom door.  He claims he thought it was a robber?  What, was the robber taking a dump?  "Sorry...

Columbus Sleigh rally

Posted on 7:33 AM by Unknown
Would have posted sooner but I had so very important HIPPA training to do.Last weekend DJ and I attended the Columbus Sleigh Rally and it was pretty nice.  Could not ask for better snow and I had a chance to speak to Fritz Klien again. The nations foremost Lincoln impersonator.   I presented him with a 20x30 image of himself and Grant.  I believe it's the only photo of him ever taken where he was smiling.At the rally I took more shots...

Coyotes

Posted on 5:52 AM by Unknown
After searching the internet for tracks and prints and sounds I've come to the conclusion that the tracks in my back yard are from Coyotes. The tracks I posted yesterday look exactly like some I saw on the net.  Then yesterday I was shoving my sidewalk and noticed the same tracks in the snow and on the sidewalk was a print which at first I thought was a large dog but going the wrong direction. So searching I find that it looks a LOT like a coyote track. Then  I found this.    Coyote sounds    which...

Jimmy the Stick was not aware if it's shadow

Posted on 6:06 AM by Unknown
If you read nothing else, make sure you watch the two Superbowl RAM commercials at the bottom of the blog - very inspirational and you will listen to every word.   -----------Eighteen years ago my buddy Mack Dowell and I were shooting the shit in my cubicle and Mack was rubbing his black shoe against my white wall and we were talking about groundhogs and if they were aware they were being used as pawns in some giant marketing ploy.No they...
