Disclaimer

If you do not know me (I mean, really know me) then there is something you need to understand before you read this blog: I value the truth above everything else... except a good laugh. A good laugh will almost always beat the truth as far as I’m concerned. Everything you read on this blog will be true, somewhat true, or something I made up in an effort to get a laugh. Sometimes I will go on a rant that I don’t really mean (or only kind of mean). Sometimes I will mean what I write only to completely change my mind a year, month, or day later. Such is life. By reading this blog you agree not to get offended by anything I write (or, at the very least, you agree not to tell me or anyone else that you are offended). It is worth noting that my employer does not endorse my blog (or even read it, to tell you the truth). The Wife also does not endorse my blog (though she will read it from time to time). I am not paid to write this... it’s just my way of giving back to the community. I have, and will, touch on a wide range of subjects and will give my opinion on these subjects. Again, most of what I say is for laughs but every now and then I will say what I really think and feel (see my views on Westboro Baptist Cult). How will you know when I’m serious and when I’m trying to get a laugh? You’ll know. And if you don’t know, well... maybe this isn’t the best thing for you to be reading. So, sit back, read and enjoy.

Happy Birthday Rebecca!!!

Know Your Medal of Honor Recipients:

Musician John S. Kountz (US Army) received his Medal of Honor for his actions on November 25, 1863, at Missionary Ridge, Tennessee. His citation reads:

Seized a musket and joined in the charge in which he was severely wounded.

Seaman Franz Kramer (US Navy) received his Medal of Honor for his actions on May 11, 1898, on board the USS Marblehead. His citation reads:

On board the U.S.S. Marblehead during the operation of cutting the cable leading from Cienfuegos, Cuba, 11 May 1898. Facing the heavy fire of the enemy, Kramer set an example of extraordinary bravery and coolness throughout this action.

Private Theodore L. Kramer (US Army) received his Medal of Honor for his actions on September 29, 1864, at Chapins Farm, Virginia. His citation reads:

Took one of the first prisoners, a captain.


Today we’d like to wish my good friend Rebecca (Godmother to my children, mother to my Godson) a very HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!!! I would post of video of the kids singing to her, but I don’t think she reads the blog. Plus, I still owe Maverick for having to sing twice to Aunt Yvonne so he won’t be singing until I can pay up. Anyway, my birthday gift to her was going with Jeremy to The Price is Right Live a couple of Friday’s ago (and going with him to Rock Hill this past Saturday for a Winthrop game). What? You think hanging out with Jeremy is all fun and games? Haha…

I know I’ve told people about this, but I can’t remember if I’ve posted anything about it, so I’m going to do so now. The girls have trained Daniel to be a dog. They’ll yell “Come here puppy!” and he will crawl over to them with his tongue hanging out. The Wife hates it, but I think it’s funny. I think it shows that Mary Ruth and Susie are able to work together and I think it shows that Daniel is what we in the business (and by the business, I mean the industry) call “coachable”.

Really, I don’t see what the big deal is… Maverick and Scooby think they’re boys, so why shouldn’t Daniel think he’s a dog?

That's where the people would "Come on down!" to

The big wheel... For $20 you could go up there after the show and spin it.  Jeremy wouldn't give me $20

Every so often, this is what I wake up to in the morning
