Momma! I'm Gonna Choke You Out!

I'm hearing it all over - MOMMA I'M GONNA CHOKE YOU OUT!! In fact I think I heard Obama saying it under his breath when speaking about the BP dudes.

There is a 20% chance of seeing northern lights in this part of Wisconsin tonight! Looking at the WKOW-TV 27 Storm Tracker We've Got You Covered Personal Weather Site it says the sky's will be clear to mostly cloudy!   WOW - talk about narrowing in the forecast on that one - going out on a limb are we Bob?  I'm Gonna Choke You Out Bob!

I should be getting my Thermo/Hydrometer for my weather station so that will be back to being fully functional again and updating to the web every 10 minutes.

Speaking of weather - Check out this FREAKING INSANE hail storm - Good Gravy!! At least stay tuned until about a minute and a half in!   The guy filming it did apologize for saying "Oh My God!" over and over and over but . . . I think it was warranted! 




The last time we hit 90 was June 25th last year. We have a chance this weekend.

Golfed last night at Door Creek and if I could make it off the tee with greater frequency I would do much better. On #2 I'm hitting three off the woman's tee, that was an adventure. The odd thing was that I had to chip it ONTO the woman's tee just to get a shot.

In reality my 3 Wood (also known as my get out of jail wood) was great. So while my tee-off's seemed to be sort of random my 2nd shot was outstanding. In fact I hit the green from 180+ three times.Ttoo bad I had a couple 30 foot chip shots that went 5 feet! SIGH!

On the last hole the sun was setting and once I finished my 3 putt for a 5 I went to the car to get my camera.

Here is a shot just off the 9th hole at Door Creek.

137 years ago today Levi Strauss and Jacob Davis are given a patent to create work pants reinforced with metal rivets, marking the birth of one of the world's most famous garments: blue jeans.  One of the most wonderful things in the world is blue jean technology.

So there was a congressional resolution apologizing for killing all the Indians and so forth.   WE'RE SORRY FOR KILLING AND TAKING YOUR LANDS  SORRY!!

The actual wording was yada yada yada . . . acknowledges years of official depredations, ill-conceived policies and the breaking of covenants" by the U.S. government, and "apologizes on behalf of the people of the United States to all Native Peoples for many instances of violence, maltreatment and neglect inflicted on" American Indians.

I suppose now BP will have to have an "I'm Sorry Statement" also and everything will be all good again!

I'm 1/4 blood American Indian but I'm registered as 1/8 because when I was born there was (and still is actually) some bias towards American Indians.

One odd thing is that it was viewed that American Indians could not hold liqueur.  The reasoning is that Europeans had centuries of liqueur entering their bodies but for American Indians it was a totally new drug and thus their tolerance was basically . . nil.  Thus . . .I've been working very very hard to get my body tolerated.

Oh man - I was working on a few photos I took this morning of our Hosta ‘Regal Splendor’ and while it looks cool . . . . some of the photos look like I was taking photos of . . . . a butt hole . . . not exactly the look and feel I was going for! hmmmmmmm

At first I thought oooooo! that looks sexy but then I say ooooo! that looks like ass! Back to the drawing board.

Here  this is better.

Hey - I'll be in Chicago Saturday and was asked for some City Scenes - also I'll be on vacation soon so stay tuned for our newest Amazing Adventure. Not as big as the last one though - The Road trip Across America

OH MAN - the room is all a twitter as we're all getting new colored monitors!!
