Hello Columbus . . . OHIO!!!

I'm glad y'all enjoyed the Fruit Cake Lady - she is a stitch isn't she? 

And a big shout out to the people in Columbus Ohio!   I know you are there!  NBC4!  You can't hide from me my little pretties!  How's that flea thing going at DOH in Lancaster!  And come on - Let Bob go barefoot in your Capitol, his feet are probably cleaner then your shoes. At least he knows when he has stepped in crap right?  I know if I would have been barefoot yesterday I would not have walked into my house with THAT on my foot!

So The Amazing Race has won eight Emmys in the "Outstanding Reality-Competition Program" awards but now the Donald  is getting all hissy saying the only reason AM is winning is that they "know how to politic the Emmys."

No - it's because it's a great non-scripted show. I say non-scripted because some people get all anal about the word "reality" saying "IT'S NOT REAL YOU KNOW". Well, I know many comedies that are not actually funny so deal with it. remember Life on a Stick? 

Is that Adam Lambert?  

That is Amy Yasbeck crooning over Adam. Amy was John Ritters wife and took the gig as a healing process after Johns death.

I tell ya - that ad just makes me want to rent this show from Netflix.


So Donald Trump says that Amazing Race does not deserve an Emmy and that Celebrity Apprentice deserves an Emmy. . . . . . WHAT?  Last time I looked The Apprentice was ranked 27th, Amazing Race 16th Survivor 8th and Dancing With the Stars #1.

I suppose that since the category is "Outstanding Reality-Competition Program" that "Dancing" the #1 show on the air should win but in my book this years Survivor: Heroes vs. Villains is just a fantastic show.  Serious good with the best players from 20 shows (I would have been on this show  . . . if I was ever selected in the first place) showing why they are the best!  This season of Survivor will change how the game is played.

In future Survivors you will see people playing a much bolder and chancy game and probably looking silly.   Anyway - I vote Survivor.

Am I missing a lot of America Who Are Us?  I thought it was every Sunday???  hmmmm I'll have to look at the recording on my DVR, I thought it was set up for ALL!!

I'm fascinated by the American Revolution and wish they would have covered it more.  One of the big problems the British had was NORMALLY, in a war once you capture a large city or Capitol the war is over. But not here.  The area is so spread out that once they had a city the other ones didn't care and CONTINUED to fight!  THE NERVE!!

Another problem was that any time they had to communicate with Europe the letter would take 2 months to get there.  They never "texted" information, not even an email. Stupid British!

Yesterday in 1951 General Douglas MacArthur Visited Milwaukee - he did not return.

Tomorrow marks a pretty big day! On April 29th the Universe was created! No one was around to record the event but German mathematician and astronomer Johannes Kepler believed that the sun, not the earth, was the center of the solar system.  HELLO KNOCK KNOCK ANYONE HOME?

Using his numbers and calculations, scientists created the "controversial" Big Bang Theory and Johannes numbers are off by 13.6 BILLION years!!  Of course the simpler explanation comes from the Bible which states "God created everything in 6 days on the 7th day he rested".  it is what it is! simple, concise and right to the point.   No need to look farther (further?).

BUT then there is Stevens Hawkings who is warning the scientific community to STOP sending out welcome signs to the aliens.  Any aliens passing the Milky Way (known as not the friendly place in the Universe) are PROBABLY not friendly!  remember, Christopher Columbus came in peace and it certainly did not help the Native Americans living here.  just say'n

We don't want no "Vs" coming here with their Blue Energy and sexy leaders making baby armies.  OR OR curing all diseases but also making every one sterile so that sooner or later there will be no humans because there are no baby's!  YEA !!  Think about it next time you hear someone getting "fixed" by a so called "doctor".

ATTACK OF THE LOOSESTRIFE!!

So in my clay garden I have a plant that looked like a good idea at the time but I was considering something else this year. So I did some research (oh! that was different - adding a photo has changed) and you do NOT want this creature in your garden.  It's called loosestrife and people on the garden web are telling me to RIP IT OUT!  I read in my Wisconsin Perennials book and it says "somewhat annoying" meaning RIP IT OUT NOW!!

So last night I take my shovel and WOW - IT'S EVERY WHERE!!   AAAAGH!!  I hope Round-up kills it as a shovel is not doing a lot of good! I put like 1 drop on every little alien mouth.

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

I think I'll dust off my garden blog with new photos.

Gotta run
Cheers
