So I caught some shit on a Columbus facebook page about the Columbus Deer Pen. I have always been a little against it as I felt locking animals in cages for entertainment was cruel. Sort of like our immigration policy and children.
Little did I know that they were all "rescue" deer. There are no signs, no reason to believe these deer would all be dead if not for the deer pen. There are no stories on WHY these deer are here and their purpose.
So, how about naming the deer and putting their stories out for all to see. Would this not make the entertainment part even MORE entertaining? Knowing about their past would make this a MUCH better venue.
Then people like me would not be called an idiot know-it-all (guilty) for even questioning an Columbus institution.

Then there is Tiger Woods. A 14-1 favorite to win the Masters. Maybe the guy that put a $85,000 bet on him at 14-1 could buy Tiger a NEW Green Jacket as he does not get a NEW one but only gets to wear his old one . . .seems they only get one (budget issues I presume).
One of my buddies placed a $10 bet on Molinari when we were in LV. 25-1 so so close.

OH - So we have had our deck for 12 years with lots of sunsets but the covered part really frames the sunsets.
I'm trying to capture all the sunsets that seem capture worthy, Two so far. Last night I ran out for another one that was not THAT great it seems. You win some you lose some but out of boredom I over-processed an image.

Mooyah Burger has a Tax day special - 15 bonus points! OK OK - I gotta get off the Mooyah Burger kick. We went there Friday as it was free shake day. STILL gotta love that place and 10% off basically if you use your app. OH - they are reeling us in like fish.

Hog Heaven? NOT . China will kill 200 million hogs as that nation is in the middle of a swine flu issue. That is 30% more then the ENTIRE Hog production in America.

The Blue Wave? How does this time of year compared to last year? There have not been many special elections but there have been a good number of smaller ones and so far the Blue wave is not as HUGE as last year but still leaning to more Democrats over performing then Republicans.
As as opposed to the blue tidal wave of last year it's just a normal blue wave . . . at the moment.

SO at this moment our President is a
a billionaire who hides his tax returns
a genius that hides his collage grades
a businessman who bankrupted a casino
a playboy who pays for sex
a Christian who does not go to church
a philanthropist who defrauds charity's
a patriot who evades the draft
and an innocent man who refuses to testify
And he is the guy voters wanted in the White House that was just like them?
MEANWHILE are we safer now?
No heads to the following departments with nobody in charge.
FAA - remember they let Boeing run their own tests on their planes to save money - vacant
US Border patrol - vacant
Department of Homeland Security - vacant
Cyber Infrastructure - vacant
US Immigration and Customs Enforcement - vacant
Department of Defense - vacant
United States Ambassador to the United Nations - vacant
And how are we safer now?
Some of these are filled with temporary heads which means they do not have to be looked at closely by the House or Senate. They can do whatever they want without being confirmed. Background checks are old school it seems. No longer needed.

I've been trying to find where I can get good steaks and burger with Maures closing along with Jacobson's. Obviously not Pic-n-save and I tried Rechecks in Beaver Dam - I THOUGHT they were a butcher but just a grocery store - a very very nice one I might add. Wish it was in Columbus.
So next up will be Leroy meats. I'll make a trip to Horicon later this week.

The Bucks trashed Detroit last night and the regulars played 1/2 the game. There is a wagering system that is a money maker if you pay attention. If a favorite team outscores another the first 3 quarters bet on the underdog to cover the 4th quarter spread in that last quarter.
TYPICALLY the underdog will actually beat the good team that last quarter - it's money in the bank. Happened last night. Detroit beat Milwaukee 25-24 in the final quarter.
CARMELO is basically PECOTA for the NBA - it estimate's each player’s future performance based on the trajectory of similar NBA players.
Using CARMELO Golden State has a 60% chance of winning the NBA Championship, 2nd place are the Bucks at 16% with Toronto at 15%
ELO is a measure of team strength based on head-to-head results, margin of victory and quality of opponent. Using this system the Bucks are a 26% chance to win the Championship, Toronto 18% and Golden State 16%.

Game of Thrones - well, I'm on season 5 episode 7 so shut up! Will someone die in the next 3 seasons? DON'T TELL ME! LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA

Watched a show on the LA Riots in 1992 - HOLY CRAP I had forgotten about that time. 1000 fires in Los Angeles. So many officials did so many things wrong at the very worst time.

and finally - 2 movies. One was a Coen Bros movie called "Burn After Reading" Typical Coen Bro movie with lots of stars, a convoluted and confusing plot and JUST A FUN movie to watch.

The second was is a Tom Hanks movie called " A Hologram for the King" which was like a Choose Your Own Adventure where you do not get to choose and there is actually no adventure.
The "plot" has 8 or 9 different plot lines that all start and end quickly going nowhere and you are left wondering about whatever happened to that story. It seemed like a 10 hour mini series condensed down two a few hours
Move along.
Have a great day - weather is coming Wednesday through Friday - watch for river flooding. More on this later
