Well, we made it thru another week! It's my intention to give you Friday off and send you into the weekend with some more lighter fare than the serious issues we have been discussing all week. Of course, if something major comes up, we'll talk about it here. Not all the stuff on Friday will be Olympic-related. We'll be punching in again on Monday, to start our first full time week. In the meantime, behave yourselves!
The jerk than ran onto the field at tonight's Braves game, and injured a security guard in the process should be banned from ANY MLB game for life. Absolutely ZERO tolerance. As Joe Simpson said: "that's too much beer---or too much stupidity."
Altobelli's Restaurant in Alpharetta, GA is one of the best Italian meals in town. A friend of mine who is an attorney told me about the place.
I just LOVE those Miller Beer commercials where the delivery crew roars in and takes the restaurant's supply of Miller from the cooler, for selling an $11.50 hamburger. When the guy says "You just lost your right to sell Miller!", it cracks me up every time. Ditto for the "Clean-up on aisle common sense!" ad too.
One of the places I would love to go back to someday is Singapore---if it didn't take so darn long to get there!
One of the time-savers in my kitchen are those large cans of Lysol wipes in the green container. Great for wiping off spills on the floor too.
I bought a bag of Dunkin' Donuts coffee---the key to making the coffee taste like you get in the shop is using half and half. I *quickly* found out that using skim milk doesn't cut it---ewwww!
We have a case here in Georgia (Cobb County) where a star high school athlete is being charged with a FELONY for having a Swiss Army knife in the glove box of his car. The student didn't know it was in there. Now he's about to lose possible scholarships and college admissions all because of a grandstanding school administrator who can't see the forest for the trees. School zero tolerance policies again run wild in Georgia (remember the infamous Tweety Bird keychain case?)
I wonder how many injuries we can attribute with people lifting up the September issue of VOGUE? That issue is heavier than the small dumbbells I lift at the gym!
Speaking of the gym, mine opens at 5AM. Just *who* is in there at that early hour? Certainly not me---I am fast asleep!
See you next week!
