YELLOW SMILEY FACE BALL

It's 6:34, dark out and Junior just left to go into work to do some extra curicular stuff, and Patrick is playing with his little yellow smiley face ball, which is very good for him since for some reason, he can't tear it up.

Random ramblings, this morning:

Look's like the blistering heat wave is going to continue. The big dogs are dissapointed.

Does this font look red to you? Good, then it's not just me.

South Bend has a TV weather chick who is a world class beauty. Our Ft. Wayne weather women are either 105 years old, or grotesquely obese. What's up with that? Pisses me off. It's not like they're meteorologists or something. It's not like meteorologists know anything more about what the weather's going to be than we do. What's next? Ugly football cheerleaders? Miss Fatso America Beauty Pageant? What was the job order, anyway? "Wanted: Fat ugly chicks to read weather on TV".

NEWS ALERT: It looks like Monday Night Football is dead, for the networks at least. Going to ESPN?

We've switched allegiance from Peyton's Colts to ex-Gator's Grossman's Bears for our Super Bowl hopes. Go Bears!!!

GO BEARS!!

Speaking of Football, the odds have narrowed for the Outback bowl to Gators by 1.5 points. How do you win by 1.5 points? May as well call it even. If Iowa beats us again, my head will explode. I hope the Gators make a statement. I think Urby can get them up...

Some idiot came on my TV this morning trying to explain what "Kwanza" is. Well, it's nothing. Just a made up goofy thing. His name was "Kweku Akan" NOT!!! That's not a name for a black man in Ft. Wayne, Indiana. Maybe in the Congo or Saudi Arabia or somewhere, but not here. His real name is probably LeRoy Smith. Or maybe Kewku KooKoo Nutsoo IS his name. The coloreds have been enamored with the idea of making up names for their young these days. It's really sad for them. They have to make up holidays and names because they have no HERITAGE. That's partially because of the White men who bought them from their neighbors, and took them out of their homeland and enslaved them. But it's partially because their stone age culture in Dark Africa had no writing, and therefore customs and names could only be remembered through oral traditions, and easily became lost forever. But NOW, if they want to build up a separate racist identity for themselves, they should LIVE their culture, not invent it. Martin Luther KIng Day may be an appropriate and authentic holiday for them, but not this silly Kwanza business. Yes, I did say silly. Because it is. It does a great disservice to them and just holds them up to ridicule. You can't INVENT Heritage. You can't celebrate a great culture if there is none. They struggled for so long for the opportunity to assimilate into the White culture, and when the Whites finally bent over backward to invite them to partake of Western civilization, their leaders start rejecting it and doing all sorts of things to maintain a separate racist identity. Bizzarre, eh? So it goes...

OK, since so many of you have asked, here's my recipe' for Winter Oatmeal:

Hey Granny, What's for Breakfast?

Make One Minute oatmeal as usual, but cut up a banana in it. Add a couple of teaspoons of cocoa mix, a chopped onion (No just kidding), a bit of grape jelly. Top with Maple Syrup to taste and serve.

MMMM--mmmmm!
