Been at least a few days since Brett Favre had changed his mind, and un-re-retired…:-) Hey Brett, have problems making decisions? “Well, yes-and-no”…:-) Too bad all the old soap operas are finally going off the air, but fortunately we have ‘As the Farve Turns’ to keep us entertained.

I see a company in England has created a car – powered by human waste…so what are the implications when you ask a friend to ‘chip in’ for gas?

Badger Family Fun day at Camp Randall is right around the corner, August 22nd. Just now getting into the ‘Mallards Playoff Spirit’ thingy an along comes football season?!?

Speaking of the dog days of summer, how’s that drive to Milwaukee and the State Fair working for you? LOTS of great shows I must admit…although some of the old 60s bands have either brought members back from the dead, or quietly slipped in some new faces. After all, it sounds a bit odd introducing ‘THE Grass Root”…:-)

State Fair Part 2; years ago, food on a stick was quite the state fair novelty…nowadays, it’s EVERYTHING on a stick! Something like 47 items – and for them all; we don’t need no stinkin’ fork! We just like to dribble various food items from our ’sticks’…it’s almost as much fun wearing the food as eating it.

From sticks to bouncing balls…(?!?)…Mitch Miller died last week at age 99…remember ‘Sing Along with Mitch’? The kind of show our parents watched, saying “now isn’t this better than that long haired hippie rock and roll?” Well, no actually…and in my family, the idea of singing out loud with the TV set would be grounds for detention. BTW: Mitch Miller hated rock and roll, even refused to sign a young singer from down south by the name of Elvis something or another. But I can say this much; at least we know his retirement is ‘permanent’!

Sorry Mr. and Mrs. Uptight, those baggy pants are OK in the eyes of the law.

We were talking about a new court ruling on the show this morning that went like this:

A New York Judge has decided a case where a man was ticketed for his low-slung pants that exposed his underwear.  The judge says while it may be distasteful and foolish, people  can wear what they want as long as they do not offend public order and decency.

There you have it.

Just by chance, Neil Young is playing a solo acoustic show in Milwaukee tonight.  The weird connection between the story and Neil Young comes from one of the funnier late night videos I’ve seen this year.  Take it Jimmy Fallon….

Rhythm and Booms – and no riots? I mean, 200,000 people with a healthy mixture of FIREWORKS and BOOZE!

What could possibly go wrong with that?!?

So, another successful R&B…but as for myself; ‘Help – I’ve fallen…”

Leave it to me to get sick on my sacred VACATION! Had the big long weekend, and ambitious plans galore; take the family to Wisconsin Dells, take in a Mallards game, etc…but spending a day at my doctor’s office on E. Wash wasn’t part of the plan…

And who – WHO gets STREP THROAT in the summer?!? Anything for attention, eh? Perhaps I can tag along with Mayor Dave on his next ‘trip’ to Amsterdam and see if they have any meds which might help…(or at least help me forget…:-)

Sounds like a name for a country song; right up there with “I’m Sick and Tired of Being SICK AND TIRED!”

Truth be told, the real fun doesn’t start until this week; as whatever I have always gets passed on to my poor wife. Then again, her title for a country song (inspired by me obviously) would be; “I’m Only Lonely when I’m with YOU!”
