20-250? Really?

Went to the eye doctor yesterday and my eyes are a crisp 20-250 or in contact lens terms  -7.00.

But the cool thing is instead of dilation which is now old school you can have your eye photographed.  This is the back of my right eyeball.  The little lighting bolts are classified as part of my brain. The carry information from the back of my eye (where they all come together) to my brain.

This is an iPhone image from the computer but you could see the cones (or were they rods).  The black dot is the very back of my eye ball dead center.

Congrats to Kristi Hansen Agnew at Englewood Local Foodsfor being featured in Madison Magazine.

Featured Farmer: Englewood Grass-fed Beef Farm

Located out at the Travel Center Kristi offers grass fed grass finished beef which is way better for you then the grain fed beef.  It costs more because instead of 20 months it takes 36 months.

Less fat, more flavor.  Don't be fooled by thinking more fat means more flavor. More fat means more fat.

We purchased a Chuck roast and made a pot roast last weekend and seriously -it was awesome.  There was a bone in which added flavor and the final result was very very good.  Better then I had expected.  I mean, how much better can you make a normal pot roast right?  

Now I need to talk Kristi into opening up another store downtown.

I've won 7 of the last 8 NFL games ATS.  Feeling good. (well, my tooth hurts).

Did I mention I think I have a root canal in my future?  Tomorrow?

Hey - get this - On October 1st, right before the gov shut down the Republicans quietly passed a measure that said only House Majority Leader Eric Cantor can call for the shutdown to end (unless he gives a designee permission). Not even the most senior GOP congressperson, Speaker of the House John Boehner, is allowed to do it, without permission from his own guy.

The guy in charge of the GOP can't end the shutdown!  

They rigged the rules so of the House to keep the government shut down.

Here is the original rule.


"When the stage of disagreement has been reached on a bill or resolution with House or Senate amendments, a motion to dispose of any amendment shall be privileged."

But - the new rule 

2. Section 2 of the rule provides that any motion pursuant to clause 4 of rule XXII relating to H.J. Res. 59 may be offered only by the majority Leader or his designee.

What a crock of BS the Republican House is!

Started watching a new old show on Netflix - Lost Girl.  A supernatural crime drama. It follows the life of a bisexual Succubus named Bo, played by Anna Silk as she learns to control her supernatural abilities, help those in need, and discover the truth about her origins.

"It’s kind of tough growing up thinking that you might have a shot at being prom queen and find out that you're part of some ageless secret race that feeds on humans."
