My mom took a family vacation when she was a kid to Salt Lake City, and my Grandma was terrified the mormons would try to convert them so she made up fake names for the whole family.


Pants, phrasing. You don't want her mad at you before she even gets there

I believe Hawaii has the second largest Mormon population in the country.
 
This is the extent of my knowledge of Bode, Iowa. One winter, a farmer (the name Wilbur Wood pops into my head) from Bode decided to go to Florida. He didn't leave anybody around to take care of his farm animals and they got really hungry and he got in some kind of trouble. #smalltowniowanews

That was probably about 30 years ago. It's amazing that I can remember this story but can barely remember my kids' names sometimes.

I remember that now that you mentioned it. I could never do that just letting your cattle starve. He was losing money and just walked away from it. If you want to screw the bank over take them to the auction and cash the check and run. Hell go out and shoot them but I don't understand how you could ever let a whole feedlot full of cattle starve to death. Sorry for the rant.

A friend of mine in college went to study for a semester at BYU - Hawaii (I think it was on the Big Island). She didn't exactly qualify for most of the Mormon generalizations and she hated her semester there.

It seemed cruel even to a city-slicker like me (Greater Metropolitan Fort Dodge counts as a big city right?).
 
Windows.

Talked with window rep at Marvins (bypassing dicks at lumber yard). Rep wants to see pics but based on the discussion I think she is going to give me an out of warranty discount but wants to see the pics first. She was not as evasive as the guy at Scherer Brothers.

BTW, I was not a **** on the phone since she was professional. I mostly rant after the fact.
 
Hopefully it all works out Boxster.

Today is flu shot day at work. I forgot and wore a dress shirt. Had to take my short half off so she could do it. Hope everyone else enjoyed the show.

They can force you to get one? I haven't had one in 7 years. I always ended up getting sick from it. Only been sick twice in the last 7 years, both sinus infections
 
I tried to pet a cow today. I believe it was a shorthorn, female. It kept mooing at us while we were looking at some trees. It was standing by a fence, so I walked up to it. Then it ran away.

I love this post. I'm not sure if it is the randomness of it, the sincerity (or insincerity) of it, the small details included in it, or the visual of a cow running away from Chaser.

What is the statute of limitations about making a "heavy petting" joke about a cow by a fence? I'm checking to see if I missed my window of opportunity.
 
So I get an email t work from some lady at an energy company asking for her ******* refund, all pissy, and saying she is emailing me after our phone call. I know I've never spoken with her and can see how our email addresses might sound like another company's name, but my specific email address would be very hard to type by mistake. Wonder how she got to me.

No but with a 7 month old, a wife with an in home daycare and the fact I like to go home it is highly recommended.
