My Dad

Recently somebody sent me some old photos. The first photo is my dad in the 7th grade (photo taken about 1955). The second photo is my dad as the coach of my first baseball team (photo taken in 1974). What really struck me was the t-shirts and how similar they are nearly 20 years apart.

I am dying to know what my dad was thinking in that first photo. He was obviously none too happy to be in this photo. He is clearly ticked off.

Note--- That is 7 year old me in the lower right of the second photo.

Spanking

This is 100% true!

You are NOT hired!

Check out this local advertisement. Notice anything? Look closely at the smaller print at the top. I do not trust anybody to work on my home that starts and advertisement with, "We was in the neighborhood..." and when they talk about "are services" that's a deal breaker. The word "Dryer" is not capitalized like the other words in the list, and there is no punctuation in the bottom paragraph. Sorry guys. Poor grammar probably means low job performance. You are NOT hired.

Sprinkle?

My school has cute little messages painted on the restroom stalls and doors. This one is on the girls restroom door. It says, "Kindness. Sprinkle it everywhere". I kind of think this is a poor choice of words for a restroom door. Sprinkle it everywhere? No! Please don't do that!

Already?????

I am in my classroom today getting everything ready for the upcoming school year. School officially starts one week from tomorrow. UGH!

Debate

The most recent democrat debates were more like clown shows...

They spent more time attacking Obama (and each other) rather than the President. They're eating their own and I love it!

More success

Michael and I went back to our new favorite fishing hole today. The action was slower than last time, but we still caught a few nice fish. What a great day!

Happy Birthday

Happy Birthday to my intelligent, lovely, wonderful wife. I wish you could see all of your children and grandchildren today. Unfortunately this is not possible without plane tickets. I hope you have a wonderful day!

Idyllic

I went back to my idyllic spot today. Here's another gorgeous photo of my beautiful fishing hole as well as a photo of the first fish of the day.
