Wife gets home and doesn't feel well. She lays on the couch and I see she has a few leftover snacks from something in a bag on the counter. I see a large peanut M&M bag and pour a few into my hand. No peanut M&Ms. I don't look close and just pop a few in my mouth. Regular m and ms, some chocolate chips and skittles. Not what I expected. Is this supposed to be some combo, because it isnt' good.

The skittles are a deal breaker, IMO.
 
Nope. No pink hand. But one of my sons was in the last class that went K-6 at Kelley elementary. They shut it down & moved the students to Slater & Cambridge for elementary, and the Jr/Sr high was in Huxley.


This was probably 93 when we went there. We went to pick up a fishtank stand and thought we may end up dead. He had pine trees trunks lined together and pointed at the top. They were the fence around his back yard. Seemed like a Vietnam prison camp to us. We had to go into his silence of the lambs basement to conduct business. While I got payment made he handed a note to my friend about an alien plant that has magical powers (we figured it was weed) and played dumb and said we didn't want any. He then said he had to go into this shed to get the stand, I follow him. As we get to the door, he turns towards me, yells "stay here, don't come in" and goes inside.

I figured I may get shot when he returns with a gun so I try to find a plan to bum rush him incase he does. He returns, hand me the stand and follows me out. I walk faster than I normally do and my friend has his hatchback hatch open and we are shoving that thing in there with no regards. We got out of there as fast as possible.

I was trying to come up with a way to seamlessly tie Saruman and his white hand in to the pink hand thing but the actual story is way better.

Only because I survived.

You know, how come I am the only one seems to stumble into these stupid places? Or am I the only one willing to admit to the dumb stuff.
 
Things you learn while listening to junky local rock stations. Today is.............

BC leaving Huxley probably drove Big Jim's out of business.

So I shoveled back patio and deck, front porch, sidewalk (which is a lot when we have three lots), and was just starting the driveway when friend of the kids drives by with a truck with a plow on it and volunteers to do the driveway. Sure, I say.

Ask him if he wants some cocoa and banana bread. Yes, please. Then he asks what we're having for dinner. Upon hearing tacos, he says that sounds really good, his mom is going to be late with the roads from Des Moines so he was maybe going to make a frozen pizza.

Well I know I'm being played, but I defrost some more meat and he's eating tacos like there is no tomorrow. May have to defrost more meat to feed husband whenever he gets home. Kids are happy they don't have to shovel and are going to helped Dave with his chemistry when he is done shoveling in tacos. Dave is getting a pretty good deal for about five minutes of work,
 
Now that I think about it, it was not a true E/W, been long enought you could have said it went in a circle and I probably couldn't have disagreed.

Do you remember that town around there, Kelley? My roommate and I bought a fish tank stand from a guy who had a giant pink hand pointing to his property. Or was that you and papalew?
There used to be a guy right off the Kelley blacktop that would have a massive bonfire on homecoming weekend. That was 30 years ago so I kind of doubt he still does it. You just brought alcohol and showed up.

stepped on the scale tonight and wouldn't turn on, as per the usual. Doesn't work very well anymore. It turns on and I step partially on to give it a "fake" weight otherwise it tends to default to whatever the weight was the previous time. It's giving me a hard time so I internally decide it's time to finally order a new one.

Finally get it to reset and it just says "Lo" when I step on now.

I'm keeping this scale forever.
 
The daughter goes to school with one of the kids, but I have to confess that I don't really know the family. Mrs. Velo was watching mom's reaction to Jimmy's arrival on her facebook machine. How did Jimmy like the tater tot hot dish?
He said he really liked the tater tot hot dish, better than the goulash. However, he didn't eat much of it. There was a rumor he had a reservation at Manny's that night.

We heard that everybody at the school was watching it. The family is a lot of fun. If you feel like it, don't be nervous about introducing yourself. They're not shy.
