Weather: Beautiful, just Fricken Beautiful.
What a great weekend, and this week the weather looks great too. Mostly in the 70’s,
sunshine, a little rain and maybe a day in the high 80’s. A few of them 80 degree days
are ok but I prefer it in the 70’s. The sun is out and the grass is growing after the
rain we have had, so my least favorite summertime job of grass cutting will have to
start taking place on a weekly basis again. I worked down at the garage yesterday,
drank some beers but I did get a lot done. Clean up mostly but what a great day to be
outside. Except for the fricken mosquito or what ever it was that bit me on the lip.
Holy shit, my lip swelled up and it still hurts this morning.
The next two days are not going to be any fun, I have to go get roto routed on Wednesday,
it sucks getting old, but I want to try and live long enough to collect some of that
social security I paid in over the years so I started going to the doctor and “trying”
to take care of myself a little better. I did read something on the internet (I read it
on the internet so It has to be true) that Agave is good for your body. So I guess by
drinking Tequila I have sub consciously been health conscious all along.
Priest’s Retirement Speech
You
don’t
need
to
be
a
Catholic
and
go
to
Confession
to
appreciate
this
story.
Make
sure
you
live
by
the
last
line!!!!
Priest’s
Retirement
Speech
A Priest
was
being
honored
at
his
retirement
dinner
after
35
years
in
the
parish.
A leading
local
figure
and
member
of
the
congregation
was
chosen
to
make
the
presentation
and
to
give
a
little
speech
at
the
dinner.
However,
he
was
delayed,
so
the
Priest
decided
to
say
his
own
few
words
while
they
waited:
“Thank
Goodness
we
Catholics
have
a
wonderful
sense
of
humor!
I
got
my
first
impression
of
this
parish
from
the
first
confession
I
heard
here.
I
thought
I
had
been
assigned
to
a
terrible
place.
The
very
first
person
who
entered
my
confessional
told
me
he
had
stolen
a
television
set,
and
when
questioned
by
the
police,
was
able
to
lie
his
way
out
of
it. He
had
stolen
money
from
his
parents;
embezzled
from
his
employer;
had
an
affair
with
his
boss’s
wife;
had
sex
with
his
boss’s
17
year
old
daughter
on
numerous
occasions,
taken
illegal
drugs;
had
several
homosexual
affairs;
was
arrested
several
times
for
public
nudity
and
gave
VD
to
his
sister-in-law.
I
was
appalled
that
one
person
could
do
so
many
awful
things.
But
as
the
days
went
on,
I
learned
that
my
people
were
not
all
like
that
and
I
had,
indeed,
come
to
a
fine
parish
full
of
good
and
loving
people.”
Just
as
the
Priest
finished
his
talk,
the
politician
arrived
full
of
apologies
at
being
late.
He
immediately
began
to
make
the
presentation
and began
his
talk:
“I’ll
never
forget
the
first
day
our
parish
Priest
arrived,”
said
the
politician.
“In
fact,
I
had
the
honor
of
being
the
first
person
to
ever go
to
him
for
confession
and
receive
penance.”
Moral
of
the
story:
Never,
never
be
late!
AMEN!
