It actually snowed for a bit at the Jackson Rummage. Wind chills in the low 30's at best. I went on a beer run for us and decided it was a good day for Mickey's Big Mouth. The finest malt liquor a man can buy. We made ok money and put it aside for the Summerfest slush fund. A good time had by all!
We spent this afternoon at the Roman Coin wondering how come it couldn't be 55 degrees yesterday.
The conference track meet tomorrow to end the season. A good week to you all!

It was the best Friday the 13th in recent memory for me as the St.Marcus Mustangs placed 3rd at the County Championship Meet. The Mustangs placed 2 points behind 2nd place and 4 points behind the winners. That's pretty close and we ran some excellent relays and the 6th graders are a spectacular class which means we will return pretty strong next year. We finish with the conference championship on Monday night.
A slow start to the Jackson community garage sale but we'll be there bright and early tomorrow morning for the big day.
I'm starting to believe that Trump is insane. Apparently he calls press publications and pretends he's someone else and talks about himself. It's on tape but he denies it's him. What kind of grown person does crap like this??? Oh that's right, they don't. If I wanted a 12 year old child for President I'd vote for my son. At least he's honest and has all of his marbles!

Trump is walking back on virtually anything he has said in the past year. It was merely suggestion he pointed out. Great, he's trying to suggest his way to the White House and see what sticks in case insulting his way doesn't work. I believe this guy is another Madoff but I'm still researching my theory at the moment.
Track practice was perfect for once today as the sun was shining as it hit 50 degrees. Then, right at the end the clouds came and it started sprinkling. The County meet is tomorrow and I can't wait. Coco is running the mile!
We took two trips to Jackson today with stuff for their big community rummage sale. It's quite a sight.
It looks like Uber might be coming to Key West after all. It was there for a while and the police gave out expensive tickets to all the drivers as it's not allowed there at the moment. Times are changing.
George Zimmerman is trying to auction off the gun he used when he shot Trayvon Martin after starting a fight and getting his ass kicked then calling it self defense because he feared for his life. He should keep it in my opinion. With scumbags like that there's always another ass kicking in their future!

Someone from out of town asked me today if this foggy weather is typical for Milwaukee. I replied no but it did resemble London today as we hit a high of 50 with scattered rain.
The Cubs lost a doubleheader today to the Padres. I'm sure that made the haters happy!
Krissy and I worked all night getting stuff ready for the rummage sale in Jackson. More work than I bargained for so I'm going to bed now as I have track practice at 6am.

Some guy from a jail cell is claiming that he is Prince's 39 year old son. For this large of an estate I'm surprised it took this long. I was thinking of trying it myself. (kidding) This joker might be the first but I'm thinking he won't be the last.
The Cubs are winning again tonight! I just might copy and paste this for everyday use.
There is a terrible rumor that the Cubs are trying to trade for Ryan Braun of the Brewers. I know it isn't true though because the article says the Brewers are asking for a major haul. Braun just isn't that good anymore, he's 32 years old and still owed 4 huge years on his contract. Theo just isn't stupid my friends!
A high school in Texas just spent 63 million bucks on a football field. Supporting fans say it was necessary to outbuild a neighboring schools luxurious stadium. Good to have a goal I guess and I'm just glad I'm not in that district. Enjoy that tax bill though.
A homeless woman in Key West became stuck inside a Banyan tree and the fire department had to be called to get her out. There's a photo of it in the Key West paper. She's really inside the tree and I have no idea how she got there. If you've ever been there and seen a Banyan tree it is an amazing structure disguised as a tree with limbs like pipe organs. There's even a resort surrounded by them on Front Street. Too bad I can't grow one here!

Singer Lauryn Hill was two hours late to her concert and ultimately played a paltry 40 minutes until the curfew mandate shut down the venue. She basically told her fans that her energy alignment isn't an on/off switch and it doesn't always coincide with her concert times. I'm thinking her fans will quit paying for her tickets soon because she basically has what Trump calls low energy. Or, in her case just a lazy diva with no regard to the fans.
I cashed our Derby ticket today and also won a $150 Visa gift card from a side work project contest. That tends to make a day a bit nicer than normal.
We watched some American Pickers episodes tonight. We can't get enough of that show and that includes Coco also. It's a great way to learn some American history.
I'm not a Paul Ryan fan today but Sarah Palin went off on him for not supporting her puppet master Trump. She is going to come to Wisconsin and campaign for Ryan's opponent which is comical in itself as Ryan is almost unbeatable and she has no sway in this state. Be careful what you wish for Sarah. We know your family likes bar fights and the good people of Wisconsin do also!
Later
We hit 70 degrees on Mother's Day and good wishes to all of you. It was almost shorts weather but not quite as we cooked out at Krissy's mom's house.
So busy this morning that we didn't have time to cash our Derby ticket yet from Saturday. I'll do that tomorrow as we won't need to worry about winning Powerball. We play the the lottery maybe twice a year and we have a hard time even getting one number right!
The Cubs won their 7th game today with a 13th inning homer from my guy Javier Baez. this is getting good!
Anyway, a busy week coming up with track practice and the famous Jackson Rummage. Stay safe this week!
