Poop Bomb

My grandson Austin had a problem yesterday. His mommy was changing his diaper but he was not finished with his pooping. The final soft ball of poo was just exiting his bod when a fart bubble behind it forced it out like an explosion said his dad Shawn. The poop went everywhere, in mommys face, hair, clothes, all over. That kind of projectile pooping makes granpa oh so proud. Further she also got puked on too. Which of course he did after taking his botttle. Thats why moms are so important to babies they can still lovem even after that. The picture (insert) is from a recent trip to Meijers. While we were there the fire alarm went off. The workers just ignored it. The screeching noise really bothered us so Shawn went of and grabbed a pair of headphones and put them on Aussie. He seemed perfectly happy with them during the sirens. I think he looked like an air controller. I have been watching the Pacers the last couple of games. I am trying to figure why they are so interesting yet bad. Larry Bird has't put together anything wonderful but the players are a cohesive unit that gives its all. It may not be enough but they are our there hustling. Mike Dunleavy has been out all season, Granger is hurt, Foster has had back troubles, Brandon Rush seems lost at times, but still they are fun. It must be that the previous editions of the Pacers were so awful to watch that this seems like a good thing. Basketball for me has not been kind. Besides the Pacers, IU is suffering a horrible season, Greenfield Central is 3-15, and only Butler has been any good, but they hit a speed bump lately. Susan is going to retire at the end of this year. Shawn is going back to school at Ivy Tech, so is Tiffany. Mike already goes there as does Tim. Devis is also attending there which makes 5. Pat is getting ready to graduate from IUPUI which is where I graduated from. I think that makes us a well educated family. Oh Susan did her undergrad work at Indiana Central and her graduate work at Butler, which is where my Dad went.

Who's Faul is it!

"baby boomers are the great depressors"reprinted from Newsmax magazine by Scot Peterson. An economist named Harry Dent says that 77 million boomers created the greatest boom and now bust in U.S.history.He also said we were responsible for the peace movement of the 60s,the go-go 80s,and the booming 90s. This is caused by what is called generation waves. Now of course we are past our prime spending years.The high birth years of 1939-57 correspond to spikes in the market from 1985 the mid 2000s. Further it is said that the boomers going into retirement and spending less money will keep the market from bouncing back until about 2020 when the echo-boomers (our kids) hit their peak spending years. He says we still have the worst of the crisis ahead of us despite what the bailout does. So he says "store up your nuts and keep your propane tanks filled." He did say 2009 looks like a rebound year but in 2010 things will go south again. He closes by saying the great depression is ahead.

Well now we know.

Abe turns 200

Abe Lincoln is now 200 years and 9days old. He had his body moved multiple times after his demise. Once because they were building his monument, once because it was crumbling, one to rebury him after a theft attempt, once to new monument, once because townsfolk thought he might be kidnapped again, and once again to put him back.All in all for a dead guy he seems to have moved a lot. The ill-fated kidnap attempt was really moronic. Two guys from Chicago (Why are these slezy types from Chitown) were counterfitters. Their cheif ingraver was so good the feds in the 19th century stopped making 5ers. However they caught him and jailed him. The aforementioned guys were upset as their business was down the tubes. They then hatched this plot to steal Uncle Abe and get a nice reward in the process. By the time they were ready to do this 2 feds had infiltrated the gang. Now imagine 2 guys and 2 feds trying to steal AL. Well the two guys that worked for the feds tried to alert the Feds stationed around the monument. Meanwhile the feds started shooting, at each other of course, and the bad guys got away. One of them owned a bar in Chicago and thats where they were arrested. It might be on Worlds Dummest Crimes. Anywho I have not dropped of the face of the earth but still waiting on my laptop to return. So good to see yall and I hope to be back soon.

I don know if this will even print. Since my laptop is gone to the garage for fixing I have tried to blog on my desktop but it keep timeing out. It won't let me edit or change things so I my not be able to finish this. The Superbowl was disappointing not because of the score ( I predicted Pgh27-AZ21) but by the unprofessional way the end was handled. The last score should have been reviewed but the refs in the booth. I am sure there was some substantial question about if the score was legitimate. It didn't look like he crossed the plain of the goal. The rest of the party was fabulous. Way too much chilli, mac and cheese, sub-sandwich, veggie tray,cake, etc was not so much consumed as eliminated. Our party people left full and happy. We got to see an awake Austin at 16lbs 6oz. He with his mommys hands played catch with daddy. Shawn and Mike ran around and giggled like little boys. Oh we thought the McGruber commercial from Pepsi was the worst, and the Busweiser Clydedales were the best. I wonder if your commercial is last in popularity will you still sell product from it. Thumbs down to Bank of America for taking bailout money then spening money going the the Superbowl, parties,with all the perks. Is the nomination of these troubled prople to Obama's cabinet begining to sound elitist.
Dice got to play kitty in the middle while Shawn and Mike played catch with a hacky sack. Shawn still has a dynamite arm.Well lets see if it works.
