Price of Betrayal

Grasshopper No.4 took his JV North High School football team to Menasha this week. His team came away with a 38-0 victory. Maybe it is the start of something great?

You know I am not a fan of social media. Sometimes it can have interesting results. A young lady married the white knight in her life. She found out several days after the ceremony that her knight in shining armor was having “affairs” with other ladies. Our young lady was outraged and began immediate legal action to void the marriage. She needed $2,500. Being a creative young damsel, she put her wedding dress for sale on eBay to sell to the highest bidder. She made sure that her story of being betrayed was told (i.e. social media). Bidding started at $2,500 for the dress. At last check, she had an offer of $85,000. There was one caveat to the sale. The wedding dress needs to be dry cleaned to remove the “stench of betrayal”.

The Olympics is over. The last event was rhythmic gymnastics. It consists of five young ladies dressed in fairy costumes dancing around holding a stick with a ribbon that is swirled around in patterns. It seems like a stretch to call it “an Olympic event”.

In the future, I understand that video game competition is under consideration. I know there are national conventions for popular games held in an arenas with big TV video boards to follow the competition. Maybe that misguided little son or daughter sitting their a– on your couch and playing games video games on x-box all day long will win Olympic gold. Really?

Packers 2nd last pre-season game in San Francisco tonight. 9:00 PM kick-off. It should be over by 1:00 AM Saturday morning. Yeah, right! Has any playing on first string played yet?

This will be the last weekend in August. Whoa!

Love,

Dad
