Weather Forecast - "D" for theweekend.

GAME OF THRONE'S FANATIC STABS BOB LINDMEIER IN HEART WITH HIS OWN UMBRELLA FOR FAILED FORECAST.

Well, from my yard this weekends forecast got a big fat "F".  But I'll give the talking head weather forecasters a "D" since they missed on the good side.  All week the headlines were.  HALF THE WEEKEND WILL BE GOOD.  No hedging bets here.  Sunny Saturday and rain and more rain with embedded thunderstorms Sunday.   Cancel everything for Sunday.

WELL. Sunday was bright sunny and 82 degrees in Columbus. BETTER then Saturday.  Bob Lindmeier will have to give away an umbrella.!

In case any Public Enemies people missed it. Susie got married Saturday WHOO HOO!!!

Sports - I was watching an NHL game Saturday night and thinking about game winning walk off scoring in all the major sports.  In hockey scoring is instantaneous.  It's like you are on a teeter totter of emotions, and then  BAM SCORE!!!  and every one goes while.

In football it's a drive or or a sudden burst of speed and you build up to the moment when the guy crosses the line. You emotions are already peaked just waiting to let go. 

Basketball there typically no walk off basket unless it's at the last 0.2 seconds and then it's exciting but really, you have all ready seen 100 baskets so . . . it's just another one but this one wins the game.

Baseball it's either a home run that takes 5 seconds or some hit where a guy scampers in from 3rd.

For my money hockey is the best game winning moment.

Speaking of baseball.  I'm tired of adults giving foul balls to kids.  HEY - we are going to die first, adults should get the balls - the kids will have MANY more chances.

Are Ryan Brauns testicles now the size of baked beans?  Does he need steroids?  A guy in the NHL CONTINUED played with a broken leg!! Yet Braun's thumb hurts and he sits out.  Or did he have a meeting with his lawyers?

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

We have a gang of Common Starlings (also called European Starling in the neighborhood.  The worlds most hated bird.  Oh - people talk about bully birds but Starlings are the very worst.  In fact the US Government kills 1.7 million starlings every year.  Ugly loud birds that bully all birds and run around in gangs. 

I thought Grackles and Cowbirds were bad but this gang is just a nuisance.  They almost drown out the dump trucks and caterpillars terraforming The Pit.

Speaking of weddings. Susie's wedding they had brisket - OMG - it was amazing!  I am a brisket fan.

That's all!
