All I can say is WOW! What a place, Sounds like everone had fun and the pictures are great. Of course the boys made a good impression, they are the best grand kids in the world (their parents are pretty special too). I’m with you on the politics Doug. This country is going to hell in a handbasket.

Now I was going to “stay away” but you just sucked me back in. So here we go,

What the hell are all these Trayvon Martin protests? Black hoodlums are roaming the streets of various cities (like Oakland, surprise surprise) randomly attacking white people. You have ivy league professors saying God is a racist and supposedly civil right leaders (who are no more than aging has beens trying to get back in the spotlight) calling for nationwide protests, AND the guy was Hispanic! I wonder how many protests there would be if a black kid shot a white guy???? I’ll bet none! Next up the Attorney General (who’s currently in contempt of Congress) is saying that Stand Your Ground laws need to be looked at when that was never even involved in this case! You see the government wanted this guy to be guilty so they could go after guns but he and his attorneys case was based on self defense, not any right to carry a gun. Oh yea, Stevie Wonder has said he won’t play Florida anymore until this law is repealled to which 99% of all comments on line said, big deal and Stevie who? (another has been) People like Al Sharpton (who looks like an alien at 80 with his 35 year old girlfriend) should be charged with inciting violence in calling for 100 protests across the Country this weekend. Well, bring em on. The guy was tried by a jury of his piers and found not guilty, case closed! What has happened to our Country and system of justice. It seems if the Pres and his administration doesn’t like a law (or the outcome of a case) they ignore it and/or just move to change it. Our Country’s founders must be rolling over in their grave. It’s just sad, really really sad.

There, I feel much better but my knee still hurts!

I went to a new dentist yesterday, what a great guy who really knows his stuff. His head nurse used to work for Dr Kivland who was my parents neighbor when we grew up. Paula (that’s her name) said to tell my Mom and everyone hi! They are so cutting edge and hi tech, I’m glad I found them.

Today the misses has to go to the office and I have a meeting with a restaurant chain at 4pm. Not sure what the kids are doing, they stayed downstairs and watched 42 (the movie) last night. The damn dog woke me at 5:15, she’s now had breakfast and is in her bed in the crate.

Alright that’s it, football is right around the corner. Lorenzo and Jen (partner and close friend) are coming out to the Steamboat Wine Festival with us so I need to rent a big condo up there in a couple of weeks. It’ll be good to see him again as he’s been at his estate in Italy helping out his parents. Fall will be here before you know it. I bought 2 pails of black beans (that are packed in nitrogen and will last for 25 years) the other day that’ll be here tomorrow, can’t have too much food and it only cost about $120 for 84 pounds! I’m telling you, water and food are they new gold! Get it while you can. Ok ok, I’ll stop as I’m going off on a tangent now (thanks to Annette) as I really didn’t have anything to write about today, so thanks!

God Bless.
