“ Where the heck did January go? As the song says, I just looked around and its gone. Hope I had fun...Speaking of time flying, Happy Birthday, Mom! 85 years young! You really don’t look a day over 84 :) .
I keep waiting for the other boot to fall this winter. Not complaining mind you, just wondering how much longer it can last...This mild weather has a lot of leaves visible that would normally be covered by snow. If you get tired of looking at yours, let me know. No waiting this time of year and you’ll save me from the dreaded winter paperwork...
It’s February, so you know what that means? Besides the Super Bowl. Besides brother-in-law Mike Menard turning 60. That’s right, time for this year’s proposal for lawn service. I know, right now you can hardly contain your enthusiasm...As always, you need to get back to me ONLY if you wish to make changes. They’re fairly self-explanatory, but if you have any questions, don’t hesitate to contact me. Or if yours got lost in the shuffle...

He calls Sven. "I bought 14 gallons of paint and had 8 gallons leftover". Sven says "Yah, so did I"...
Several folks had the right answer: Rick Perry. Let’s see, there’s Doree Keeney, and oops I forget the rest. I guess she wins...
OK, so the Bronco’s aren’t in the Super Bowl this year, but you have to give them credit. They made the season interesting after a REALLY bad start. And you notice I didn’t even mention you know who...
Moneyball, The Help,The Descendents, and Midnight in Paris are all best movie nominees I ‘ve seen already. To get into the drawing this month, I need the name of any of the other five...
A nurse pushes a wheel chair into a room where an elderly gentleman is sitting with a suitcase at his feet. He insists he doesn't need any help to leave the hospital, but after a chat about the rules, he reluctantly lets the nurse wheel him to the elevator. When they get to the lobby, the nurse asks him if his wife was meeting him. “I don't know”, he said. ”She's still upstairs in the bathroom changing out of her hospital gown”...
Not sure why Valentine’s Day made me think of the lyrics at the bottom. Or why Dave Barry felt this advice important: “Your hand and your mouth agreed many years ago that, as far as chocolate is concerned, there is no need to involve your brain.”...
