A picnic on the ol' front porch
Worked up an appetite. Where the rest of the house used to be. No, I'm not peeing on the porch. Geez.The Cows COULD jump over the moon...
...or they could just roll it along the ridge for a bit. Click to enlarge. By the time I got the camera the moon had shrunk some.

AI Finals-Jordin Wins!
Ta dum. I haven't watched the final show and probably won't. Over the season, the hoopla quotient rises. Too much hoopla, not enough hope.
But I'm happy for Jordin, who just needs some training. I hope fame doesn't spoil her. I'm happy for Blake, too, who seems like a nice guy. I thought the talent this year was superior to last year's, and I look forward to next year. Is it great music? Generally not. Is it my kinda music? Not usually. But I enjoy watching some talented young people pursue their dreams. So sue me.
The final standings:
Arnold 26
Scott 32
Mom 34
Claire 35
Luke 36
Laura/Me 38
Caleb 42
So congratulations, Arnie. Everybody can figure out what they owe Arnie, but Arnie would like you not to send him any money. He won $500 on a scratch card last week (yes, he's the kind of person who buys who few instant tickets every week) and he is feeling flush. So, he is requesting that you take your "losings" and use them to commit an act of kindness. He says he would enjoy hearing what you do with his winnings, but it's up to you what you do.
Thanks for plyaing everybody. We will play again next year, with a new scoring system.

Life in the Projects
New Bathroom.
New Family Room just before Laura painted the walls.
Sorry, buddy, not much time for you these days.
Too tired to work. Can't the kids do it?
The cows are over the hill.
Laura's exhaust. Cole Muffler gave us a price of $750. Jeremy and I did it for $18. It took us twice as long as it should have because we made a dumb mistake. But we still saved $732 less our labor. Next, the Forester clutch and the Outback head gaskets.
New calf pens. No calves in them yet, but we've got 16 cows due in the next thirty days. Gonna be busy!
Four new seedings. could use a nice gentle snower.
Luke is siding the west wall, and doing a nice job.

Congratulations, Jeremy!
Jeremy has now graduated from SUNYMorrisville for the second time. He now has two associate's degrees, which is one more than I have. It just goes to show what a little bit of nose-to-the-grindstone can do for ya. His degree is in Ag Business so if you have any Ag Business questions, Jeremy's your man.
Way to go, Jeremy!
Way to go, Jeremy!

I'm a MAC, I'm a PC
These commercials are brilliant. Right up there with the Snickers on the Bald Spot commercial. The whole lot of them can be seen here. Buy Apple stock.

When you're weary, feelin' small...
...go read your Ebay feedback. Then you'll realize how amazing you really are.
The Curse is, like, SO reversed

Weren't for bad luck, the Yankees would have no luck at all. Two, yes two, rookie pitchers receiving broken bones from batted balls in the first inning of their starts. How weird is that? And why can't Johnny Damon play more than a game or two at a stretch before he has to sit down and rest. Doesn't he have two more years on that contract after this one? It'll take more than Roger Clemens to save this team.
