I had put in my application for “Dancing with the Stars”. I figure if Emmitt Smith and Hines Ward could win the coveted “Mirror Ball”, it can’t be that hard. The new season begins in a few weeks.
I saw the list of new participants for the “dancing season” and I’m not on it. Would you believe they picked Donald Driver of the Green Bay Packers. Just because he is smiling all the time. Just because he puts “family” first. Just because he has a chiseled granite physique. Just because he has name recognition. Yep, they picked Donald and not me.
The search for a replacement recliner chair continues. In the meantime I have been spending more time downstairs on the comfortable couch watching big screen TV. This falls into the category of “occupying your Mother’s space”. You can bet the chair selection won’t take very long.
All the weathermen (and women) have been saddened lately by the boring warm weather. There lives have been without purpose. Rejoice! A messy weather system in coming in tonight and conditions keep changing. Snow, sleet, and rain. Temperatures above freezing. Does it get any better? Weathermen can use the blues, reds, pinks and silvers to highlight warnings, advisories and severe conditions. They can interrupt TV broadcasts to bring latest weather conditions. Sh–.
NASCAR finally finished the Daytona 500. One day of rain delay followed by a freak accident between a race care and an emergency track maintenace truck. 200 gallons of jet fuel were spilled all over the track and it took several hours to clean it all up. That causes me to wonder how you can clean 200 gallons of jet fuel off a race track and I can’t get a jelly stain out of my sweatshirt. I must use the wrong cleaner.
Stay warm.
Love,
Dad
