Good morning everyone...
Another week of work in the books. Time is rapidly passing by. The vacation discussion has continued. There are several scheduling conflicts. I believe the summer vacation is going to be short and simple, but it will still be a vacation with kids that are almost grown. The last word was the Ohio river town of Cincinnatti.. waterpark, German restaraunt, and hotel with pool. I might even try to go to Jungle Jims
Jackie and I are still planning a fishing trip in september. We still aren't sure where. I am thinking Vermillion, OH for jumbo perch fishing. Might even be talked into doing Walleye somewhere. I could even be convinced to go over to Virginia Beach. I suppose we will just wait and see.
This past week we had dinner with sone friends...Travis and Karen. You can refer back to the wedding and engagement as it was listed in this blog. I noticed that they are still in love with each other. I have to remark on this and am going to steal a line from a commercial..."Stay thirsty, my friend."
Here's a chuckle to start your day...
A lady is having a bad day at the roulette tables in Las Vegas. She's down to her last $50. Exasperated, she exclaims, "What rotten luck! What in the world should I do now?"
A man standing next to her, trying to calm her down, suggests, "I don't know. Why don't you play your age?" Then he walked away.
Moments later, his attention is grabbed by a great commotion at the roulette table. Maybe, she won! He rushes back to the table and pushes his way through the crowd. The lady is lying limp on the floor, with the table operator kneeling over her.
The man is stunned. He asks, "What happened? Is she alright?"
The roulette wheel operator replied, "I don't know. She put all her money on 29. When 36 came up, she just fainted!"
Well, until the next time...please remember that I have to pay the bills

Saturday Morning Reflection #93
Good morning everyone...
Good old saturday...I have missed you all week.
The coffe this morning is yummy. The cats have received a new job. Officially they have started being the alarm clocks. They woke us very early. Poor, hungry, attention starved creatures...I will let them live...this time.
Work continues to be the same...same old, same old.
Vacation planning is in full swing. Hotel reservations will be made soon. Everything still looks as if we are headed to Morehead City, NC....still some discussion going on.
Here's a chuckle to start your day...
In my sociology class, we were instructed to write down answers to some questions the teacher was asking.
"Next question," announced the instructor. "How would you like to be seen by the opposite sex?"
I was thinking about my answer when the young woman next to me turned and asked, "How do you spell 'intellectual?'"
Well, until the next time...please remember that I have to pay the bills

Good morning everyone...
What an interesting day in morganhole,WV. Seems as if country bill had a little attitude and ollie decided to spank him. country bill pretty much told the Mountainqueer nation to piss off. Gotta love that. I do suggest that the bars in morganhole that are close to the Mountainqueer facilities raise prices...the new head coach should be able to keep them in business....
I looked out the window this morning and it had been raining. Good for the garden, but bad for the boating community. I know that Kenny is chomping at the bit to get his boat in the water.
No major plans for this weekend...just catch up on a few chores and start vacation planning. I am very much looking forward to vacation this year (like that is new?). I am going to try and slip in a fishing trip before vacation. Just something quick and over a weekend. Gotta love the quick getaways.
Here's a chuckle to start your day...
Father O'Brian, a young priest, was sent to a very small church in the backwoods of Alaska. After a couple of years the Bishop decided to pay the priest a visit to see how he was doing.
Father O'Brian said "this is a very lonely job and I don't think that I could have made it this long without my Rosary and two martinis each day."
"What?!" Exclaimed the Bishop. "You've taken to drinking? What kind of example is that to set for the community? This doesn't reflect well on the church."
"But the loneliness, I just couldn't stand it. If it weren't for my Rosary and those two martinis a day, I would surely have gone insane."
The Bishop thought a moment, then said "I guess that is understandable considering..."
With that the priest said to the Bishop, "Would you like to have a martini with me?"
The Bishop said, "well, I really shouldn't but...Yes, that would be nice. I think I will, but just this once."
The priest turned around and hollered toward the kitchen, "Hey Rosary, would you fix us two martinis please?"

Saturday Morning Reflection #91
Good morning everyone...
Well here's another saturday morning. It is supposed to be a beautiful day. I plan on enjoying it...outside and doing stuff. I might have to stop and watch the T-ballers play. They are so funny.
Jackie and I stopped at Skye Lake and watched everyone fishing. There were some kids that were very entertaining. Jackie says she wants to go fishing there one evening.
I am still planning my next fishing trip. Still not sure where we are going. Might decide to do a float trip down the new river and see how many smallmouth we can catch.
Here's a chuckle to start your day...
The customer in the Italian restaurant was so pleased that he asked to speak to the chef. The owner proudly led him into the kitchen and introduced him to the chef.
"Your veal parmigiana was superb," the customer said. "I just spent a month in Italy, and yours is better than any I ever had over there."
"Naturally," the chef said. "Over there, they use domestic cheese. Ours is imported."

Saturday Morning Reflection #90
Good Morning everyone...
Another Saturday is upon us. This weekend is the one where we need to stop and think about the fallen heroes that have given their lives so we could enjoy a future. We are all with family and friends, enjoying the "stuff from the grill," and loving the weekend. Please,just take a minute to remember OUR fallen Heroes.
I am still in the planning stages for my next great adventure. I am thinking Alaska. I have viewed several web sites that are all-inclusive. I am very interested.
Here's a chuckle to start your day...
I was helping a buddy of mine, who was an orthopedic surgeon, move to his new office, and using my car to help transport some of his office equipment.
I had decided to position his somewhat fragile display skeleton strapped into the back seat of my car, his bony arm across the back of my seat...
At one traffic light, the stares of the people in the car beside me became quite obvious. I looked across and explained, "I'm delivering him to a doctor's office."
The other driver leaned out of his window. and commented, "I hate to tell you, but I looks like you may be a bit too late!"

Saturday Morning Reflection #89
Good morning everyone...
Last week I posted that there was a fishing trip in the works for Lake Eerie. I have some very sad news. There has been a fire in Port Clinton, OH and The Garden has been damaged. This fine eating and drinking establishment will not reopen. I will surely miss going there.
This morning we will be going to see Yoda. Sounds like a fun time for all involved. I might even convince Jackie to buy lunch at Cabella's.
Here is a note for my friends that might be concerned about me and fishing...there will be another trip planned...I am just not sure where.
Here's a chuckle to start your day...
My dear friend, a divorcee, never remarried, and her daughter wanted to know why.
"The men I know would bring too much heavy baggage to the marriage and I simply don't want to put up with it," she explained.
Taking her mother's hand in hers, my friend's daughter said sweetly, "I hate to break the news to you, Mom, but you're not exactly carry-on yourself."

Saturday Morning Reflection #88
Good morning everyone...
Saturday morning...again. I like the weather. The coffee is great. The cats are well behaved (sometimes). AND its FISHING SEASON. I suppose it is time to plan a weekend excursion to...Lake Eerie...does that surprise the people that know me?
The garden is turned and ready for planting. Jackie says she is going to start planting this weekend.I haven't put out a garden this size in several years. I am kind of looking forward to it. I realize that there is lots of work, but the rewards are fantastic.
I am planning a drive out towards Lake Vesivius this weekend to look at the water and see if it is "fishable." Might have to spend a day out there and see what I can find. Everyone knows I am not into "catfishing" so most of my trips are ocean or Lake Eerie. Sometimes I just like the peace of Lake Vesuvius.
Here's a chuckle to start your day...
My wife has not spoken to me in three days. I think it has something to do with what happened on Sunday night when she thought she heard a noise downstairs.
She nudged me and whispered, "Wake up, wake up!"
"What's the matter?" I asked.
"There are burglars in the kitchen. I think they're eating the tuna casserole I made tonight."
"That'll teach them!" I replied.
Well, until the next time...please remember that I have to pay the bills
