WS Ag Center - BEST peanuts ever.

Now that I'm over the shock of watching Aaron Rodgers miss a 3 yard pass and after listening to Dan Patrick and what he had to say about the Packers  . . . I agree.  It's not just McCarthy that should be taking heat. It's also Rodgers who missed open receivers and was showing frustration with McCarthy.  NOT what you want out a QB.

OH - McCarthy has gotten stale and has mismanaged a number of things and add to the equation of just not fielding a team that can compete.  The Packers are NOT a well oiled machine.  

THE GOOD THING is that the Bears look like they will win the division but not at the expense of the Packers.  We can watch them from afar as the Vikings are the ones on the hot seat (how much was Cousins?)   For ME the Packer season ended in the first quarter of game #1 with The Injury.

Meanwhile in the NBA I have a little system that I started last week and it's now 10-2 picking the O/U in NBA games.   Tonight The 76ers OVER 223 and The Pelicans OVER 222.   Pretty easy system of just looking at the past.  NBA teams you would THINK change a lot every year but in reality they don't.  They might have different players but the same general theme is always there.

It's like saying Wisconsin football has different players every year but . . . they still play the same way.  Same with the NBA (of course the Bucks have changed significantly).   

This is the last I'll mention of this as I'm sure it will crash and burn but until then . . . . . .

******************

Watched half of a new Coen Brothers movie on Netflix and I DO NOT recommend it. It put both of us in a foul mood and is rather disconcerting in a violent way.  It's actually 6 stories of the old west.  The first is very comical but the next to are  . . . depressing with #3 just leaving a VERY bad taste.  

We were really looking forward to this but it was an evening ruining event which is a rarity for a movie. 

*******************

There is a whole lot of complaining about Columbus Water and Light raising rates.  Get over it.  There has seen no rate increase for 6 years.  Once CWL gets near the 2% profit margins (which it gives to the city to pay for city employees) it must apply for a rate hike.  

With the city doing SO much road work that includes UNDER the street maintenance of course rates will rise.  If you want new streets you have to pay for them right?  There is well #1 that is on it's last legs and everything is just more expensive.  

I'm no longer on Water and Light (I wish I was) but the rate increase is totally justified.  If I was I would go for the water mains ABOVE the city streets (sort of a steam punk vision). It would save money and the over head pipes would shade the cement which would take longer to break down.

PLUS - having the water mains ABOVE the street would be a tourist attraction. WIN WIN!   

*******************

There is a study out about self driving cars and now much safer they are then human driving cars. 

The problem with humans is they re BAD drivers.  They tailgate and then hit the breaks too hard, then the guy behind them overreacts and its a domino effect.  

One study had 14 cars in a figure eight.  all 14 drivers were human.  Take one human out and replace it with a self driving car.  The average speed DOUBLED

Watch just a few self-driving cars stop traffic jams

******************

The camp Fire fire has destroyed 10,500 homes.  The head of the GOP blames the liberals.

******************

What is the WORST YEAR EVER?    How about 536.  The entire European continent was dark from a volcanic eruption in Iceland and the plague hit.

 Why 536 was ‘the worst year to be alive’

Remember - when ordering something online.  When you get to the last page that says BUY - wait . . until the next day. You will get deals like free shipping.   Also - make sure you have HONEY on your computer.  It has saved me a BUNCH of money looking for and applying coupons.  Heck I saved $20 on a $80 purchase last Friday.

WS Ag Center has the best price for thistle seed for birds - very inexpensive bird seed and good stuff AND they finally have their peanuts in.  They have the BEST peanuts (for humans)  fresh from Georgia. a little late this year because of the hurricanes.
