Is that you Whitney??

I have these two songs going through my head for some reason. On one side is this Adele song and on the other side is Whitney Houston screaming at me, you know the song. HELP!!!!!

But you know what blew me away last night at the Grammys (besides Nicki Minaj's performance which scared me) was The Civil Wars. WOW - BLOW ME AWAY!! I was doing search's this morning and one thing that keeps coming up is "Who are The Civil Wars".

Of course their performance can not be found anywhere because The Grammy people keep everything under lock and key forever which sucks. There are some amazing performances in the past that can never be seen (Pink's acapella from about 5 years ago) . . .anyway . . .

Check out The Civil Wars

I got a letter from Water and Light.  At first I thought it was going to be a notice that since I was blasting the Columbus water they were going to disconnect me  . . . .but I was wrong.


It was from Vicky Billingclerk saying "Like dude your water bill is like totally bonkers!
Your consumption which is like 3,465 gallons per month and you topped out over 10,000 gallons last month.   Like perhaps you should look for a leak? or something.  (not her exact word).

Well yea - how about the outside faucet mysteriously coming on, would that be classified as a leak?

Madison Mallards Hot Dogs

 I hope so. 

OH - why a hot dog?  I was looking for my faucet leak but came across the hot dog I got at the Mallards game last year and thought it was much more funny!  mmmmmm  ball park hot dogs - and it was cold. The Mallards know how to make hot dogs for sure.

Mom?  I put a dent in the car!!

One thing I noticed when I was doing my taxes.  The pension plan does not take enough out of my monthly check for taxes . . OUCH!!!!   Glad I got a job to cover what I owe.

I was going to blast Walker again but I lost interest.  OK - so Wisconsin's budget has a 143 million short fall because we did not collect enough taxes.  Well, YEA - cut $400,000,000 in State employee wages and you come up $140,000,000 short? who could have predicted THAT.

But that least he is taking the Home Mortgage money Wisconsin got to help home owners and using it to fix the budget.   

OH - Walker last year  ....("democrats" relied on one-time federal stimulus dollars as if the money would be there forever – but it’s already gone. Gone are the segregated fund raids, illegal transfers, and accounting gimmicks." -Scott Walker, Budget Address, 1 March 2011.

Well - not entirely I guess.

This is the last 3 months of GDP for the U.S. Wisconsin is ranked NUMBER 3 if you reverse the order! Thank you Mr. Walker.


DJ and I started watching Downton abbey because of a SNL skit!!   After seeing this we were intrigued and now love the show!

Anyway - better clean the kitchen, fill out a lawsuit for a computer dude, get dog food, go to the post office, work on another Auditorium image, read more about water (I had a water epiphany last night) get jury photos together and fill out another application for an Art Fair.

Wait - what is that I hear in teh background?? . . . .Is that you Whitney??      MAKE IT STOP!!!!! 

OH - speaking of Auditorium photos!


Have a great week
Rod

  1. Hahaha, Downton got youse guys. Prepare for a lot of suds.

    It's special fun to watch an episode, then read an entertaining recap. Here's my very favorite, starting with Season 1 Ep. 1:

    Go on then!

    Was fun to see both Butch Vig and Bon Iver representing WI on the Grammy stage. The Foos were faboo.
    Hipsters be dissing, but Rod-- you and I can both remember when the Grammys were hysterically irrelevant to anyone under 40.

  2. OH - there were a number years when the Grammys totally sucked!! Nothing but Hip Hop, rap and twangy country!

    I thought last night show was great!!! However - I really hate Bon Iver. NOT a fan at all.

    I remember when MY groups would be insulted with getting a grammy! LOL
