Let’s have a few links about bacon, everybody’s favorite vegetable (unless you’re one of the Tribe, I suppose).
It’s Bacon Week at the trendy 3 Restaurant in Washington DC.
Then there’s Bacon-palooza.
You can keep up with all the new developments in the wide, wide world of bacon here.
There are still those who doubt the goodness of the fruit of the swine.
I you want to wax poetic about your bacon, here’s a good place to start.
Finally, let’s not forget how smart Bacon can be.
Congratulations SD, I know yall must be proud…..and tarred.
♫ Eatin’ burnt suppers that whole first year, that’s the good stuff ♫
Yea, Packers beat the Vikings 28-24. Good weekend all around for Wisconsin teams.
G’night all.
Super Dave, congratulations on your son’s wedding going well today. You’ve gained a daughter. May they have a long and loving marriage and celebrate their 50th wedding anniversary in style.
As for the groom’s Mom and Dad, rest up and enjoy the videos and photos.
I’m calling it a night. I was up until 2 AM tinkering with the Rhodes, then up early for church. As usual, one of the tunes we sang is looping in my mind, but this one should help get me to sleep (it had that effect on the folks at the early service.) It’s a very simple four part arrangement… Read more »

Sounds like a wonderful day! Every wedding has to have its hiccups – you need stories to tell later on!
Congratulations on the wedding. May the newlyweds have much happiness over many years!
MAN!! Just got back from the wedding and it went great, started a little bumpy unorganized but it went well, a little over 150 people. I had a few friends that couldn’t make it to Daughter’s wedding that managed to show up so we were real happy with the outcome. The Boy and his Bride LQQked great and so did… Read more »

Don’t know. That guy has actual hair.
Hmmm…..who might THIS be?
Good to see you around, fat albert.
Hamous #84;
DONE! Does the paper know Osborne’s godfather has connections? 🙂
Hammy, my vote’s in. I prepped and seeded another vegetable bed. The faint screaming you’ll soon hear are the seedlings trying vainly to avoid my black thumb. I also shoveled a lot of dirt. That “lift with your legs” thing may help the back, but my thighs and other areas are certainly feeling it! I have finished barbecuing the meat,… Read more »
Tuesday or Wednesday, I believe.
#84 – done DEAL Hammy…………..how long does the voting continue?
#87 I’d ask my vote-bot buddies to give you a hand, but I know they’d google you first, which means they’d tune the bots toward the other guy. 😉
Three more House races move towards the GOP today. Two move from “leans Dem” to tossup and one moves from tossup to “leans GOP”.
Stuffing ballot boxes like Democrats. I could announce he’s a Ron Paul libertarian and it’d be a cakewalk. 90%! Speaking of stuffing ballot boxes, did you see this? A special prosecutor investigating allegations of voter fraud, Trey Smith, is collecting DNA from the majority of the city council…all Democrats. Five city councilmen, including the council president, as well as four… Read more »

done. He’s ahead.
Stuffing ballot boxes like Democrats. I feel so soiled.

45-42
Four more votes and he’ll be ahead.
Ok folks, do me a favor. Go over to this website and vote for my Godson, Cole Osborne (South Harrison), for Small School athlete of the week.
SuperDave –
Good luck! Take lots of pictures!
I’m speechless.
According to leaked documents posted on Wikileaks, there were lots of chemical weapons and facilities used to make and store them found in Iraq since 2003.
Well, the Women got all Gussied Up and the Menfolks did the best we could,….I have on my “Men’s Warehouse” Rent-A tux. 😉 So we’re off to the Wedding,….wish me luck and keep me covered. 😀
TT, sorry you didn’t get your wish regarding the birfday engagement.
But ya know, if they are both still in school, they’re too young to get married anyway (IMHO, and also statistically speaking).
Mornin’ Gang We just finished up in the kitchen, daughter and Son-in-Law spent the night here with friends and Sister & Grandniece are staying with us. I cooked up homemade sausage, yard eggs, grits and biscuits. The kids didn’t show up until after 9 so we got a late start. I spent all day Friday putting 237 pictures into a… Read more »
Rangers and Giants to the World Series. FOX and MLB executives ponder suicide.
At least the Bay Area and Texas will be watching.
Good morning all. Muglies creeping back, 68 at 6, light ground fog early on suitable for Baskerville Manor–but no hound other than maybe a neighbor’s Great Dane that might qualify. The breeze picked up and drove the mists away. Ahem, where is the promised cool front? This is too much like the dregs of late summer. There are some clever… Read more »
I’ve got an ice cold Shiner that says CA’s prop 19 does not pass. Too many democrat politicians are against it. Wimps.
Maybe next time.
FatAl – welcome to the new nest!
Hey, Hamous – I’m slow but I finally got here. Good thing too, my wife says I was becoming politically constipated.
How about that? Baylor is now bowl eligible!!!!!
Wisconsin held on to beat Iowa 31-30 this afternoon. Yea. Second week to beat another Big 11 biggie. (Northwestern refuses to quit–good for them–so it’s the Big 11 after Penn State horned in some years ago.) The conference and all its members must have warehouses full of stationery and things emblazoned with Big 10 logos, and they aren’t going to… Read more »
I feel your pain. They can still win the Big12 South and face Mizzou again in Thunderdome.
Well, crap.
The mighty Sooner juggernaught has been upset by the perennial Big-

I have not heard anything yet, so maybe the coat is all she gets for her birthday. (She’s a bit of a jacket junkie.) That, and the companionship of someone who loves her.
TT, I had hoped to hear some announcement from you tonight regarding the near-term prospects of grandchildren in your life, but I did some manual labor this morning & I’m just whupped. I’ll check for your news tomorrow. Nitey-nite, all.

I *AM* having an evening. It’s a good thing I have the patience of Job.
Losing it a little bit with the youngest has resulted in a parade of about five bags of trash being removed from his room.

Another argument for abstaining from questionable behavior.
#43 Bob:
Can you cite a single instance when abstinence failed to prevent pregnancy? (Other than a single supernatural occurence)
That must explain why I can’t clean it all out.

One of Glenn Beck’s sponsers is Food Insurance. They claim to have foods that will last up to 25 yrs, everytime I hear it I ask myself, what could possibly start happening to a food in 25 yrs + 1 day that did not happen the past 25 yrs?
That reminds me of an Aggie joke: An Aggie and a t-sip are hunting in the woods together. After a while, Mother Nature begins to make some rather forceful demands on the Aggie. “Man, I really gotta go!” he tells the t-sip. “Well, go then! Bushes are over there!” says the t-sip, waving towards some shrubs. “But I gotta go… Read more »

Well, actually, you can. But just don’t go expecting to shake any hands later! 😉

Planting fruit trees that will provide fresh fruit is another thing not on the list. Heh./don’t mention it to anyone. shhhhhhh….. Guns, ammo, soap, toilet paper. With… Read more »
I just found today’s offering from barf kitty. Too bad projectile vomiting isn’t a sport, I could make some money on this cat. She got some pretty good distance on this one!
Guns, ammo, soap, toilet paper.
With enough of the first two, the rest of the list is easy.
Remember what the philosopher Alphonse Gabriel Capone once said:
“You can get more with a kind word and a gun than a kind word alone.”
