I CAN'T GET OFF HOLD!!!

This is the advertisement that will be in the Columbia County Tourism brochure.  The reason I mention this is that all of those photos . . .ARE MINE!!!!  

But the big news are Hot Dogs!!  It seems there is great concern about all the Hot Dog deaths in America because people are choking on them.  I suppose it would be children and now they want to redesign the hot dog.  GOOD GRIEF!!   Let's just put our children into big plastic bubbles so we don't have to pay attention to them. I was talking to Jenny about gym class in Junior High (Middle school now I guess) and how we would have fun on the trampoline.  All the kids would ring the trampoline to "catch" anybody that would fall off.  Although whenever you would get close they would all run away.

No tramps now - TOO DANGEROUS!!!  How about the rope climb. You guys have that in school?  We would climb this thick rope up to the ceiling (30 feet) with a 1/2 inch mat to break our fall.  Or outside we had a jungle gym with the crushed gravel under it so when our head bounced off 4 metal bars the gravel would help soak up the blood!  Those were the good ol' days.

Now there is rubber "mulch" and plastic slides (metal slides are way way to dangerous).

You know the REAL reason there are holes in donuts right? It's not so they cook easier. It's because American sailors would stuff a whole donut in their mouth and choke.  We had a box of donuts today for a birthday but I didn't see any HAZARDOUS CHOKING WARNING on the box!!!

Did you know that the #1 emergency room kitchen accident is bagel cutting?  That is why they ask you at Einsteins if you want your bagel sliced. They are afraid you could kill yourself and they would lose a repeat customer.  Perhaps if they redesigned bagels to be square this would help.  And don't even get me started with bananas and carrots! DEATH FOOD!

Perhaps we could redesign food at home with a knife instead of creating a commission to investigate this phenomena.

I heard this morning that Operation Iraqi Freedom will soon be renamed to    wait for it . . . . . Operation New Dawn!   OH MY GOD!!!  Operation New Dawn?  Can they get any more Testosterone Deficienct?   I bet the Pentagon spent 30 million dollars to come up with that one.  They probebly got it while washing the dishes. 

With Operation Iraqi Freedom, you know the ultimate goal.    Operation New Dawn - what?

Here is what Robert Gates, the Defense Secretary writes, what a bunch of bureaucratic BS.

“It also presents opportunities to synchronize strategic communications initiatives, reinforce our commitment to honor the Security Agreement, and recognize our evolving relationship with the government of Iraq.”

synchronize strategic communications initiatives?  SNORE!
 
Of course one problem is that "Operation New Dawn" HAS ALREADY BEEN USED!!  The Battle for Fallujah in 2004 was also Operation New Dawn.    COME ON MAN!

So I'm sitting here on hold for  . . .19 minutes now.  My buddy Elweed who is in the Badger Care Core program had his cleaning company purchased by another one and he has to report this.  Since he only gets 60 minutes a month on his trak phone and I'm his "helper" I do the calling.  This is unreal.  Last time I was on hold for 56 minutes.  Then since in his last correspondence he said he had a new company they discontinued his food share program because his company was different and he did not report it.

Then they said "in approximately one month" he would get a form for his company to fill out.  7 weeks later he gets it and he has 7 days to complete it and get it back.  WTF   

I hung up after 74 minutes.  FU!!

On a lighter side - Just having fun! 

OK - I have to devote all my time to surfing the internet on how to mend my phone hold ear. 

Have a good day  know I am!
