Please excuse the interruption, but here’s a PUBLIC SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENT
reminding us that it’s best to make WISE choices!
An elderly man in Houston decided he’d had enough of his job and, as a subtle farewell, drove a bulldozer through the office at the auctioneer house where he had been employed. The damage costs estimate to about $1.5 million. Good thing he has a job to pay it o—never mind

Please excuse the interruption, but here’s a PUBLIC SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENT
reminding us to look at life through the eyes of child!
A woman was driving her old beat up car on the Highway with her 7 yr. old son, Little Johnny. She tried to keep up with traffic but they were flying by her. After getting caught in a large group of car's flying down the road she looked at her speedometer to see she was doing 15 miles over the speed limit.
Slowing down, she moved over to the side and got out of the clump that soon left her behind. She looked up and saw the flashing lights of a police car. Pulling over she waited for the officer to come up to her car. As he did he said, "Ma'am do you know why I pulled you over?"
Little Johnny piped up from the back seat, "I do! Because you couldn't catch the other cars!"

hi everyone
checking in a little late tonight. I had Tavi over at my place for awhile. Drats I didn't it know it was the official Chicken Dance Day. She loves that song and I have it on CD. We would have been doing that dance all night long.
She did make mommy and daddy each a card though. She wanted her artbox right away. Of course, the mess is still there and it might stay there for at least tonight. I Just kind of like looking at "her mess"

That's so cool! I'm sure she loves searching to see what new goodies you've put in there... and can only imagine how excited she'll get when she has to have a bigger box to hold them all!

Hello ~
home sweet home! We left after the half-time presentation. And I never thought I would drive my parents home on homecoming....but that is what I did. Hee-Hee. McFarland was winning 19-0 when we left. They did a nice job of honoring the 64 championship team. We went to the pig roast beforehand. Tavi had a blast. At one point I wanted to take her picture and she said "I'm watching the game!". Oh boy. They won 22-6!
I have round 2 of football tomorrow MORNING (11AM CST Start) . Badgers vs UTEP. I'm hoping it's not raining. It got pretty chilly at the game tonight.

Please excuse the interruption, but here’s a PUBLIC SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENT
reminding us that there are some Dumb Crooks in the world!
The Apple Store alarm triggered at midnight, notifying the local police that the premises had been compromised. Police arriving at the scene discovered that a security gate at the front of the store had been destroyed, and there was substantial damage to the business. No suspects were found at the scene, so officers reviewed footage from the surveillance cameras.
In the video, a blue BMW X5 SUV can be seen crashing through the plate-glass window in the front of the store. Three suspects exited the vehicle and started to grab items from nearby display tables. While the hooded crooks grabbed the loot, the wheelman attempted to back out of the store, but quickly discovered a security gate had fallen down, blocking his path. Undeterred, the driver repeatedly smashed the back of the BMW into the gate until it finally gave way and the SUV was able to exit the business and drive away.
A clean getaway? No, far from it.
During one of the BMW's frenzied attempts to smash through the security gate, the vehicle's license plate was torn from the vehicle and was discovered among the broken glass and rubble. The BMW was also left crippled with two flat tires. The burglars managed to use a spare to change one, but the other remained an encumbrance. The solution? Why, a second theft, of course.
One of the men allegedly entered a nearby convenience store and stole a can of Fix-a-Flat. Unfortunately for the thieves, the damage to the tire proved to be too substantial for the liquid magic to do its thing. So, rather than limp the battered beast back to their hideout, the thieves abandoned it not far from the crime scene. The car, which once had a new dealer price of between $40,000 and $60,000, had "extensive damage," according to police.
And it gets worse, for at least one of the alleged crooks. While police were busy following up on leads in the case, they spotted a young man walking near the mall. As it turned out, he was the registered owner of the BMW. In fact, he had the keys to the vehicle in his pocket.
