Snooze Fest



I'll admit that I didn't watch SNObama's "State Of The Union" address last night but I did catch the "highlights" today on the internet. And judging by our Homeland Security fashion plate, Janet Nepolitano, I didn't miss much!! Same old crap spewing from the annoited one's mouth. I'm glad to see that a few people are seeing Barry for what he is, but others are still blinded by his idol status. My Wife said a few of her co-workers were talking about His speech last night and how great he is. Oh well, some people just love that tingley feeling up their leg when he speaks.

Congratulations to The Hawk!!



Finally, Andre Dawson is enshrined in the Hall Of Fame! I've been a big fan of Andre since his playing days with the Montreal Expos. He was the guy who I dreaded seeing up to bat against the Cubs and who usually killed us. But I respected & admired him as a player. He was a true 5 tool player in his early years with the Expos. When the Cubs signed him in March of 1987, I just freaked, sure the speed wasn't there as it once was, but this man could hit & field plus he had a cannon for an arm. Needless to say, '87 was his break out year and was voted MVP that year. It was fun going to Wrigley Field in '89 and watching "The Boys of Zimmer". In this steroid induced playing era we have now, it's good to look back at someone who just used his talent to play the game. With a .279 career batting average, 438 home runs, 1,591 RBIs, 2774 career hits and 314 stolen bases, it's about time! Now if we can just get the veteran's commitee to vote in Ron Santo..

Winter Storm Watch!



Winter has only just begun and already I'm tired of it. Winter is just a depressing season to me because you're mainly cooped up in the house with nothing to do and you feel helpless, well to me at least. Anyway, The National Weather Service has issued a winter storm watch here in central Illinois with the possibility of up to 5 inches of snow tonight and into tomorrow with blowing and drifting snow tomorrow afternoon. Just freakin' great! Oh well, only 73 more days till Spring.

One Down, Three To Go





Well, we made it through the first year of the Annoited One's presidency. It seems the shine is starting to fade a bit as his approval ratings dip, which proves that you can't polish a turd. I'm hoping as soon as the Obama Kool-Aid runs out that people will begin to wise up, but I kind of doubt it. As long as dingbats like Joy Behar & Rachel Maddow have their own shows on T.V. and people continue watching, there is always going to be brain dead people who believe the crap spewing from their lips. My wife and I love to watch "Iron Chef" on the Food Network but we skipped it last night due to more Obama overload, it's bad enough they are on every magazine cover monthly, but now we get subjected to them on television shows as well. I'm just trying to figure out what's weirder, Michelle Obama's dress or Chef Mario's shoes.
