mmmmm slime mold

WELL - I suppose I should write SOMETHING just so I remember how to spell.   I've had nothing to complain  talk about so I've been quiet.

Saturday I walked out to the yard and saw what looked like dog barf.


But looking closer it was more of some alien organism.



This is called slime mold. Nothing exciting and pretty harmless actually.  In fact it eats pathogens so it's actually a good thing.  It dried up and I moved it to under the porch.  Just a weird nature thing it seems.

*******************

In golf league this year I have now had a 44,46,52 and 45.   My best start yet. When wil lteh golf gods smite me.

*************

OH the good news is I replaced my anemometer on the roof and my wind speed is now accurate.  I noticed in January that it seemed always slow but I ain't getting on the roof in January.

As of last Friday I have wind speed at KWICOLM2 

On Wednesday's we go to the fantastic Columbus Farmers Market and we always take Gus.  We're thinking we might have to take an ink pad as people are always asking for his autograph!  LOL  My dog has a bigger following then I do. And is a better speller.  He knows  B A L L  now  DAMN IT!

The guy is a jokester for sure.

We go out and I will throw the ball and he runs to get it.  He knows all sorts of commands and the other day I threw the ball and he runs, gets it and stops.  Sits down and looks at me.  I yell COME, and he jumps up and runs the opposite direction for 10 feet stops, turns around, drops the ball and with a big shit eating grin (a meaningful saying in dog speak)  looks at me.

I raise both hands and yell WHAT ARE YOU DOING!

He picks up the ball and runs full speed at me.  Stops on a dime, drops the ball and I swear he is laughing.

It was 2 years ago last Friday that he picked us as his forever family.




Check out this puppy - don't cha just want to eat him ...  IT'S A CAKE



********************

I have not taken any photos of the new banners downtown but it's on the todo list, they look good!!

Mullins had some FANTASTIC fries that we might never see again.  Kelly used actual potatoes and double fried them in a labor intensive process that might kill profits.

I still think they need 1/4 pound burgers.

*****************

so so many questions. 

 
******************

Yelich on my SOM team has 8 home runs   sigh!  Not as GREAT as I was hoping.  It's a good thing REAL Yelich is doing much much better along with Moose and what did I tell you about Grendal.  Having a career year at the moment.

**********************

I see Trump is boasting about how he forced Mexico to deal with immigrants with his tariffs. He fails to mention that Mexico agreed to do this a few months ago.

One thing his incompetence is doing is that no one actually listens to him anymore - even the government does not.  The Navy ignored him on the McCain thing and now U.S. embassy's  are ignoring him and flying Pride flags against his instructions to NOT fly the flags.

Every poll has him losing ground.  In the battleground states EVERY one of the 19 democrats would beat him.  There is no anti Hillary vote this time.

***************

Mays job numbers came out last week.  You might have missed the reports as the WH did not want to report them as they were disappointing. 25% less then expected.  So the ACTUAL numbers

2.1% are unemployed and actually looking for a job
50.2%  Employed Full time
10.5% employed part time
2.1% unemployed, want a job, not actually looking
35% unemployed and do not want a job

BASICALLY America is at Full Employment which is not actually a good thing.  There are more jobs available then there are workers.  What America needs are more workers who want to work the lower paying jobs . . . hmmmmmm where can we find some of those people willing to do labor for cheap AND being literally more responsible and law abiding then most Americans.

*********************** 

NFL - Of course New England is the #1 pick to win the super bowl.  I think that is just hard coded in now in online books.  +500

Philadelphia is JUST ahead of the Packers  as the 5th and 6th in the National Conference behind Saints, Rams,  B B Browns, Bears.    OOPS - sorry - not Browns, wrong conference.

****************

Weather - Great today, breezy, better tomorrow, Wednesday SUCKITY SUCK SUCK.  rain all day, high of 62, recovering Thursday, 70 Friday Thunderstorms Saturday high of 72

****************

STILL a little issue with my right dominate eye with my new lenses - so so close.

Have a day
