CuTRis Wants Wall Between Minnesota & Wisconsin UnAssociated Press January 27, 2017 Citing an influx of cars with Wisconsin license plates driving in the St. Paul area, CuTRis told reporters this morning that he is tired of seeing Green Bay Packers bumper stickers while driving on Minnesota highways. "We're going to build a wall!" said CuTRis , "And Wisconsin is going to pay for it!"

When I had the song, "Space Lord," by Monster Magnet in my head, my 9-year-old niece said it sounded "like an 'old man' song." If that's true, thank God I'm an old man. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dscfeQOMuGw At the time of this posting, this version of this song has 7,969,583 views on YouTube. There must be a lot of old men who agree with me.

My son asked me who was on the shirt I was wearing. I told him it was the Tasmanian Devil dressed as a lumberjack. Then I asked him if he knew what lumberjacks do? He said 'no,' so I told him they cut down trees! "What else do they do?" he asked. "They eat their lunch," I replied. "What else?" he asked again. "He cuts down trees, he eats his lunch, he goes to the lavatory," I answered... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QgaRd4d8hOY

"What if everyone in the world all farted at the same time?" http://minnesota.cbslocal.com/category/watch-listen/wcco-tv-shows/good-question/ Note* My preschool age son has been asking "what if everyone in the world" questions lately and so he gave me this idea. Thanks buddy. I owe you one.

One 9-volt in smoke detector "popped" and the detector started "chirping." Two AAA in the programmable thermostat failed the first night and I woke up at 4:00 AM to a house that was 59 degrees F. Both times the batteries were new and had dates well into the future (the AAA's were 2025). There is apparently no quality control.

Minnesota Vikings Regain Fumbling Abilities UnAssociated Press December 19, 2016 The Minnesota Vikings football team has regained its missing fumbling game with the return of Adrian Peterson . While numerous announcers have commented that the running back has such a strong grip that it "hurts" to shake hands with him, he still cannot hold onto the football very well. The much anticipated return after an early season injury, has reestablished the Vikings fumbling abilities and should greatly improve their downward spiral that began just after the bye week.

This kind of chicken has a pointed, narrow breastbone; so is best cooked on its side. I turn it halfway through cooking.
