Be Careful What You Say

I have a department wide meeting today to discuss visions, goals, accomplishments and other incredibly exciting topics. I really hope we break into groups and have 15 minute with some strangers about some inane topic that we have to report on. Those are GREAT!!! I hope there is a sing along. THis will be a short blog today.
======================
I try to stay away from politics but this little video comes from Opie with Andy and The Fonz. It's pretty cool.




=======================
I have a meeting with a Grumpy Troll woman this afternoon. Not sure why I mention that but it's something you don't get to say too often.

I also have to figure out this beer thing. It's CERTAINLY not making beer cheaper. I give half of it away. I was looking at my Flat Squirrel (which is REALLY good) and I've gone through a case already - WTF!!!!
======================

Be Careful What You Say

It seems Jo Egelhoff, the Republican candidate for an Assembly seat in Appleton is having some trouble with her blogger self. Her political self and blogger self from a few years ago are rather different.

As a politician she wants to make Wisconsin schools the best in the state. But as a blogger she wants to eliminate kindergarten for 4-year olds, shut down all two year colleges and restricting pay raises for teachers.

hmmmmmmm

She wants to lower gas prices but on her blog she ripped into "gas price whiners" and backed ExxonMobil’s profits and suggested cutting state spending on roads by 10%.

hmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

She wants to make health care affordable for everyone but a few years ago on her blog she called Medicare and Social Security "giveaway programs" and did not like the idea of universal health care.

Once something get's put on the internet . . . it never ever goes away. You can delete it all you want but it's not really gone.
=======================
I had $25 at a poker room on the internet that I had forgotten about. Just had not thought of that place for a year. I can't really GET that money (long story) so I figure I'll get that $25 off my back by playing a $20 tournament like a mad man because . . . it's not real money (it would cost me MORE to get it out then what it's worth.)

So - OF COURSE - I come in second place and now it's $45. DAMN IT!! Just enough so it's not really in the "not real money" stage. It's ALMOST worthless but if I double it again . . . . . . .
========================
I have my Halloween Costume ready - I'm going as Rocky Hardington!

I'll leave that for your imagination.

OK OK - perhaps Rocky will be wearing something very . . . . green. I'll have photos!

remember - in Columbus - turn on your lights or kids will not come.

Calling Alice Schmidt! Calling Alice Schmidt! I found an article you wrote in the 2007 Visitor Guide and I'd like to reprint it here. I feel I need permission!
