WHAT a colonoscopy? Radiation is a concern around Chernobyl? IT IS NOW!!! & Storm Water Utility

So here I was sitting on my ass because of COVID for 2 years slowly getting morbidly obese and I have a new Dr who says I need a blood test and low and behold I MIGHT have diabetes with a 5.5 something or other. 

So I start working out 3-4 times a week (actually lifting weights and aerobatics for 20 minutes and being serious) and increasing my carrot intake infinite amount (from zero to many) and loving my canned spinach which is actually much better for you the fresh spinach and even having wheat buns from time to time on sandwich's and snacking on chick peas snacks and a ton of protean with beans. 

I'm down to 170 and feeling good . . . . BUT NOOOOOOOO!!   

OH Mr. Melotte - you have not had a colonoscopy for 7 years  IT . . . IS. . . TIME!  

Actually they are not as bad as they used to be.  No drinking a gallon of liquid like the old days.  ANYWAY - NOW after eating healthy for 6 months I need to go on a diet of donuts and banana cream pie for 3 days.   No corn, popcorn, seeds, nuts vegetables, beans, fruits with skins, no whole grain bread or high fiber cereal. 

What else is there . . . DONUTS!

VOTE Tuesday - one thing Columbus is voting on is a Storm Water Utility which MANY towns have.  I am 100% for it as opposed to borrowing and having it cost 2-3% more in the long run. 

From a good friend          

The storm water utility is a more fair way to assess the costs of storm water management.

It applies responsibility for these costs to properties based upon how much runoff they contribute. By raising funds only through property taxes, you aren't generating funds from nonprofit or properties that are tax-exempt. Also properties with large properties with greater amounts of rooftop and parking lot will be assess their share more fairly.

Theoretically by taking those costs off the tax levy it gives the city ability to either reduce the levy or use funding that was budgeted for storm water toward other needs...like roads.

Vote YES for the Storm Water Utility.

It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas - ACTUALLY the last snowfall on average is the 2nd week of April but this year March has sucked.  

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

Speaking of sucking - The Grammys.  There is not a single rock artist among the Grammy nominees for album of the year, record of the year and song of the year. Most of the rock categories are full of old acts. Maybe it’s not rock music that’s the issue, but the Grammys? The Grammys are seriously out of sync with what’s actually performing.

20% of music consumption was rock music last year.  17% of downloads and streaming was rock and 13% was pop music.  The top 5 grossing tours were rock. 

BTW - I was never a big Metallica fan.  Nice songs but I never purchased music. The problem was the GOOD music are NOT their hits. It's the longer 10 minutes songs that are REALLY REALLY good. Awesome musicians now that they are grown-up and not drunk  LOL       

I mean all 4 movements of this composed piece are amazing- not what you think Metallic is    https://youtu.be/2EqYLL7GjTA

Russia so so dumb - First they drove their tanks through the Red Forest next Chernobyl. It's called the Red Forest because the trees turned red from contamination and the Russians  stirred up all sorts of radioactive clouds with their convoys.  It's the most radioactive area on earth. 

NOW - it seems they told their solders to dig trench's in the Red Forest and hundreds of Russian solders have been evacuated because of "acute radiation sickness".  

 Journalists on the ground have also reported “ghost buses” of dead soldiers being transported from Belarus to Russia under the cover of dark.

Who didn't see THAT one coming.
