KURTH - Say Good Bye to Suz Night

Well - pretty exciting last night- I love my iPhone. I have an app on my phone and as we were watching a recorded show it was getting a little dark. So I flipped on the radar but instead of the normal rain I was looking at Base Velocity. This measures the motion of the storm.

I noticed that near Edgerton there seemed to be a lot of circular motion and I told DJ to turn on the real TV to see what was happening.

On flips Channel 27 and Bob Lindlier hyperventilating looking at "street view" and talking about twigs and stem damage on neighborhood trees. Bob is about to pass out so we turn to Charlie Shortino from Channel 15 and luckily he was not on as he would say it was sunny out, but David George, who scares me because he has to first names, was there and in STORM MODE! He seems to have it together.  Best weather dude out there.

We all survived as the weather bubble once again diverted the strong storms south of Columbus.

In case you do not know about Grinders Weather Bubble. The first documented appearance was on the very first day of filming Public Enemies. It was a cold day and the forecast was for rain.  I called up the weather bubble and we were saved.


Of course the problem came when I did not know that this caused the June floods.

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

SUZ is leaving for California so we are thinking of a KURTH party THIS Friday night to say so long to Suz.

We can reminisce about the good old days and laugh at some of her most candid remarks . . such as . .

I HATE YOU TED THOMPSON.

and one of my favorites
YOU RUINED EVERYTHING YOU ASS HOLE - I HATE YOU
and remember that one time she said
YOU ARE THE STUPIDEST HUMAN EVER THOMPSON - I SPIT ON YOU!
and when she came back from Green Bay a little calmer and changed her license plate to
IHATETED

But the kicker was at a Packer shareholder luncheon as she hoisted a frothy mug and said with that sly smile.

Ted,  if I ever pass you in California and you are laying there dying of thirst, I would not give you a drink of water. I would let the vultures take you and do whatever they want with you with no ill regrets.


We will all miss Suz.

I hope many people can make it Friday. Should be good weather!
-----------------------------------

Speaking of weather - the atmosphere is pretty juicy but I feel the BIG blows will be tomorrow afternoon. Late tonight my feeling is that the atmosphere will be cooled down enough and storms will go south. But tomorrow afternoon will be pretty dicey!
-------------------------------------- 

And last - to continue the Sue Hawk Survivor vent -  I can not resist!

I plead to the jury tonight to think a little bit of the state of Wisconsin. Wisconsin is full of, pretty much, only two things - snakes and rats. And in the end of Mother Nature, we have Ted Thompson The Snake, who knowingly went after prey; and Bret Favre, who turned into the rat that ran around like rats do in Wisconsin, trying to run from the snake. I believe we owe it to the Wisconsin spirits we have come to know to let it end in the way that Mother Nature intended: For the snake to eat the rat.

Have a nice Tuesday.
