Big Red Balls

So does no one watch Wipe Out on ABC on Tuesdays? People!! This show is hilarious. I'm not kidding. It's just soooo stupid that you will find yourself laughing out loud. The hosts use to bother me but now I just go with it and they make me laugh.



The stunts are great. No one can do them but they all try like it can be accomplished. You need to check it out. I need to go back to the show......

Sick of Work Day

I hate days like today. Nothing is going as it should. FedEx didn't pick up my package, the shredder won't shred and I just drank my last diet coke!

I think there should be a rule that when three things go wrong you can leave work and either go home or go shopping.


















Like a sick day or a sick of work day. Everyone has them and it would be like a burst of energy if you could leave. Then the next day you would be refreshed and more productive. Hmmm, I wonder how I would get started on getting that implemented?

If you love "The Word" say amen!

Anyone who knows me knows I'm not a religious person. You may be and that's cool. Its' just that I'm not. What's up with those religious channels on TV?

Like Jan. Actually, I love her. She can cry on cue, she wears pink hair, (big, big hair) and she put Tammy Faye to shame with the make up!



















I was surfing the other night and noticed that most of the women, and some men, on the religious channels have had major plastic surgery. Being a televangelist must really pay off. The audience is so enthralled that they must not know that all the televangalists want is their money to fund the next plastic surgery, hair plug event or jewelry buy.

Hancock

Went to see Hancock...












Loved it!!. Will Smith is a favorite of mine anyway. I also liked the movie score, which is weird cuz I usually don't pay much attention to stuff like that.

Connecticut

Ok, so I liked Connecticut. Here are some pics

Yale














Downtown New Haven














On the way to our hotel on the beach














Pretty Teacher in the Atlantic Ocean














Eating at the restaurant at our hotel at the beach














Dog Fish














Leaving the beach to go to the airport














New Haven Airport














Yes, the airport is very small. I flew a prop plane to Philly and then changed to a grown up size plane to fly to Phoenix. It was a very long trip but nice to see something other than cactus!

Road Trip-Day 3

Just so you know, I don't think anyone lives in Kansas, other than the University town we were in. We drove through Kansas and for hours and miles and miles and miles we didn't see any sign of life other than on the highway. Seriously, I think aliens came down and took all the people in Kansas!






Ok, so here is cross #2. You be the judge if it's the same size or bigger (or smaller for that matter). Pretty Teacher and I were so astounded that there were 2 of these things that we couldn't decide if it was bigger or smaller. Creepy, very creepy!











Ok, so I will be completely honest, the rest of the road trip was pretty much a blur. I don't remember what picture goes with what state anymore. One day we drove through 3 states. I think that was the day we left Kansas. So I'll just show a few pictures. This is the Missouri River. I know we crossed it 3 times. I don't know how or why.














Indiana (duh!)












The FEMA car...















Ohio...












The Mighty Mississippi, water is kinda high right?












Pennsylvania...











More freakin highway!!!!!....













Ok, I'm totally bored with all of these pictures so my last post will be of Connecticut and then we'll be done. Pretty Teacher has some of the pictures that I need so I'll try to get them from her but she's kinda busy. Maybe that will have to wait. Thanks for reading.

Road Trip-Day 2

As we left Amarillo we saw what Adam says is the biggest cross. I can't be sure if he said in the U.S. or not, but here it is. It may not be the biggest cross, you will have to be the judge, but that's a later post (you'll understand later).



As we entered Oklahoma we had to swerve to miss an, you'll love this, an armadillo! I know, we couldn't believe it either! Sorry I don't have a picture of the little guy but I felt missing him was more important than a picture.

Here is a picture of Pretty Teacher waving at a Swift truck. I made her wave at every Swift truck from here to Connecticut. She didn't understand why but I told her that the cactus on her back dash and the AZ license plate would let them know that we were from Phoenix too. I thought it was a nice jesture, she thought it was presh (wink to Pretty Girl!). For those of you not in the know, Pretty Teacher realizes that my insanity isn't temporary.






























When we got to Kansas we went to visit Pretty Teacher's friend Karen. She attends K-State.












They had a tornado the week before we arrived. She walked us all over campus to show us the damage. It was pretty bad. Tornados are not nice! Then we walked to Aggieville, a quaint part of town next to the University. We ate dinner and when we walked back we saw that the University has a Petticoat Land and a Lover's Lane. The campus is beautiful with a lot of buildings that look like castles. Sorry no pics, I didn't have my camera but here is Pretty Teacher and Karen...



















Karen was nice enough to let us sleep at her house. So we did. When we got up the next morning we headed out. More on that later.
