What could POSSIBLY go wrong!!!  
---------------------------------------------
I was looking at some old folders as I wanted to try a new technique (which ultimately failed) and I found a image that had been overlooked.  It was taken a little before I shot the Sunset/Loan Tree image and because it was not spectacular I just shoved under the rug (as they say).  Or shoved under my plate like boiled cabbage that my mom once insisted I eat (my dog would not even eat it). Note to self - hiding things under plates does not work.

So here is the forgotten shot.

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

MILO!!!!!

No matter how irritating our pets are they do have a rhythm. I know that my 14 year old cogie wakes up at 10:30 at night and is wide awake and ready to play. I know he also likes to wake up a 3:30 in the morning and go pee on the carpeting. I know that Milo, IN WINTER, will not meow ALL FREAKING NIGHT to go out like he does in spring and fall. 

However last night in the middle of the night he is meowing in the livingroom. Odd, he never does that in winter. I could tell he was walking around that side of the house and he was meowing LOUDLY.

Stupid cat, and we went back to sleep.

Blake sleeps the whole night (thank you lord) and wakes up at 5:30 (15 minutes before we get up) to go pee on the carpeting so I get up let him out and as I go down the hallway something is odd. The house is warm.

I walk into the living room and the gas fireplace is roaring away. Since it was not on last night WE did not turn it on. WAIT A MINUTE. The remote for the fireplace is on top of the blanky that Milo sleeps on. HE TURNED IT ON DOING HIS LOVE DANCE ON HIS BLANKY!

MEOW!! UMMMM FIRE! THE FIRE IS ON, HELLO?? THE FIRE IS ON!! WAKE UP! MEOW!!

The more I play around with Pinterest the more I like it. I have a board called Artwork I LOVE. Not like, not cute puppys but a few things I LOVE!!

This is one of the 5 pieces I have in my collection so far. It has to be pretty special (for me) to get on that board).

Any of you on Pinterest check out Linda McHardy's collection of 96 boards!

The Baltimore Ravens last play!  WHY did they not call a timeout before the failed Field Goal attempt.  Why rush it.  The play clock was running down and was at 1 second with 14 seconds left to play in the game.  They had one timeout left.  WHY RUSH!!!!
------------------------------------------------------------

I don't think we have seen the final winner in the GOP yet and there are some strong rumors that we will have a brokered GOP convention, one at which a late-entry candidate might be picked such as Jeb Bush, Mitch Daniels or Paul Ryan.  The GOP elite are not happy at all with Newt and Mitt Kerry . . oops Romney!

If Romney is struggeling and the only alternative is Newt!  That is a total nightmare for the GOP.

Bottom line is the Republicans are in very very deep doo doo and are complaining that Super Pac's have way to much influence on elections (hmmmm was it not their idea to create Super Pacs?).  Obama is said to have over ONE BILLION DOLLARS in Super Pac money waiting to be released!  What the Republicans forget (or don't understand)  is that while they say they are the best party for finance . . . the Democrats actually have more money!    Weird.

Cheers
Rod
