I am very impressed with the results of the Camry crash test.  In a rear end collision,  the passenger section remained unharmed and in tact even though the entire rear end of the car was demolished.  Unfortunately, it was my Camry and I was driving.

I got hit by a very large truck on the expressway.  I walked away from the accident.  When I got up the next day, I felt fine.  However, this morning, I felt like I had been hit by a truck.  Duh!!

I will definitely buy another Camry. 

A member of the Philadelphia fire department was suspended after he posed topless for a charity photo shoot. And, while he has quite a build, his nipples were exposed and that is against the rules.

I guess next time he should wear a two piecer!

An 80+ retired Catholic Bishop was found dead in a field behind a local casino.  Apparently, he had become disoriented while leaving the casino and drove his car into a pond.

It is unfortunate that a holy man, with such a distinguished career, had to end up dying in that manner.  Spending the evening gambling, just doesn’t seem all that virtuous.

But more to the point, where was the security?  If the casino security didn’t notice a car being driven into a pond, they probably aren’t going to see people being raped, robbed or murdered.

The Quran burning minister from Florida wanted to have a peaceful demonstration in Dearborn, Mi.  Since Dearborn holds the largest Muslim population of any city in the US, the local officials would only allow it if he posted a large sum of money for stepped up police protection. The minister, of course, didn’t have that kind of money so he cried “Foul”.

Now, the cities actions also upset the ACLU who cried “freedom of speech”.  It also upset the Christian population who were tired of having to be politically correct.  And, it upset the Muslim population who didn’t like being labeled at fanatics.

I guess some days you just can’t win.

My new kitchen cabinets arrived.  Kathy and I had looked at them when she was still alive.  And, she picked out certain configurations and a certain styling.  Well, I decided that it was time to execute that plan.  So, I went to Menards and ordered the cabinets that she had wanted.

I do miss her very very much.

Since there are so many protesters in down town Lansing, the State has banned anyone from bring signs into the Capitol building. And I can understand that.  The State doesn’t want the inside of its building damaged from these signs.  So, if you want to make your cause known, get tee shirts printed.

I saw a sign the other day advertising “wild bird seed”.

I assume that this is seed for wild birds and not bird seed from the wild.   But regardless, is there a difference between bird seed for wild birds and bird seed for domestic birds?

The big mystery in Grand Rapids is the sudden disappearance of Suzanne Geha, a local TV anchor woman.  Is she going to work for another station?  Did they not renew her contract?  Is she holding out for more money?

I guess it doesn’t really matter.  It is time that she be replaced with someone a lot younger.   She was starting to look as haggard as Barbara Walters.

But, she will always be in my memory.  In fact, I will think of her every time I see a Guernsey.

Friends and family often try to help me out by doing dishes for me.  And I do appreciate their help.  But, I wish that they would ask me where things are stored rather than just guessing.

Todays’ quest was for the rolling pin.  Since it wasn’t where it is normally kept, it could be any where in the  house.  After a half hour search, it was located in the back of a cupboard.

Recently, I have adopted the attitude of “If I can’t find it, I will just buy another one.”  Life is too short to be looking for stuff.

Tonight, I received a phone call.  When I answered the call I heard a recorded message which said “Do to increased call volumes, all of our agents are presently busy.”

Since I was feeling sorry for all of those poor overworked agents, I decided to hang up.  🙂
