PEANUTS ARE HERE!
Really? This is a big thing? We stopped in looking for Native Dog food which they have but only in 50lb sacks which is a little too much for us - HOWEVER - being a peanut loving guy I purchased a bag of peanuts. WOW - They are good! Very fresh and crispy!

Packers
WELL – that was a fun game wasn’t it. Seems some people want to fire everybody
because the Packers totally suck. My
response is . . . how many losing years in a row are you complaining
about?
I WILL say I am over Dom Capers defense and his excuse on
“injuries”. The problem is that his plan is GREAT when you have no injuries . . but this is football and
injuries happen. You really need a
scheme that does not depend on 11 healthy players playing their parts.
Badgers
Being a bandwagon fan of any Wisconsin Badger sport and
still not having seen more then 5 minutes of a Badger game this year – they are
so awesome exciting. We are on our way.
Bucks - I have seen more Bucks games then all of Badger sports put together LOL
OUCH – they totally sucked against Dallas. The issues with the Bucks (2nd
place) is that they have bonafide stars but not enough surrounding
players. Sort of the opposite of what
normal Bucks teams have been. Getting
stars is the hard part but now with a handful of All-Stars they need back ups.
Fun Fact - I listened to every single Milwaukee Bucks game in the 70s on the radio . . . . I find out DJ listened to every single Bucks game on the radio also.
Fun Fact - Oscar Robertson let Elwood and I into a game for free once when they played at the Coliseum. We were hanging out near the back exits just sitting on some steps when Oscar and Bob Dandridge were coming to the game. They let us in!
Those were the days when there was really no security. Heck, we could have gone back stage with Roger Waters at the Pink Floyd Dark Side concert. Nobody cared - no security at all.

Won 6 of 8 contests yesterday and 14 out of the last
18. The great strategy was picking BOTH
running backs for The NO Saints.
GOLD! I should sell our picks like the old days when I sold them on Collage and Pro Football weekly (1-900 number).

There are 3 revenue streams for collage sports - ticket sales, media rights and donations. Donar’s get free
access to the GREAT tickets and can write off 80% of their donations – well, the
GOP tax cuts plan takes away that 80% write off. Just like school scholarships are no longer free but are income.
The Landing Strip.
Heard some people at Home Brew Club talk about Columbus and
“The Landing Strip” (James Street). They
called it that without my intervention.
Interesting thing about the Sun Prairie Worthogs. In the last 2 months we have had the Quality Control dude from Ale Asylum talk to us. Seems their beer goes down almost immediately if not
kept cool. Any Ale Asylum beer you might have that is 3 months old. Not that great anymore.
And last Thursday we talked about oxidation and how home
brewers are better than breweries when it comes to oxidation. Yea yea – they can bottle 30 bottles in 15
seconds but they are full of air. Home brewers have foam to protect their beer
when bottling. MUCH better.
Of course oxidation is what SOME
people like (Corona). That skunky taste
in beer stored in clear glass. The WORST
container for beer in the world. Clear glass totally blows for storage.

A kilo of Mexican
cartel cannabis is now $26. A KILO! Down
from $74 a kilo 7 years ago. Yea –
Colorado is putting the hurt on Mexican cartel so much they are switching to
heroin.

Self driving cars
Self driving cars
American drivers are so bad that even if we used the
technology we have RIGHT NOW and put the self driving cars on the road TODAY –
we would save tens of thousands of lives.
There is no need to wait for perfection. Just like traffic circles - people will resist safety.
New York terrorism
Remember that bike path where the terrorist mowed down the
bikers? New Your City cops have given
out 50 tickets since January 2017 for people driving on that bike lane. A
known and ignored problem.
Zimbabwe - Robert Mugabe has been in charge for 37 years – inflation during that time has up 500 BILLION percent !! Seems excessive.
