Cuz we wanted to see

most of the Academy Award nominated movies, we watched 'Inside Out' this evening. I gotta admit I kinda 'missed it' as I tried to look at it from Piper's (my 6 yr old granddaughter) viewpoint, instead of mine, and I couldn't relate. My fault, not the movie's.
The little girl moved from MN to CA and had a hard time. I moved from Lexington to Kearney, (same month Tom Heller moved from Holdrege) and the first day I played 'soccer kickball' (baseball with a soccerball that you kick) at recess and I kicked it over everyone's heads, (I had strong legs), and became popular on the playground. In the classroom we had a geography test, (that we had just studied in my old school) and I aced it. The teacher liked me.
Bottom line, I couldn't relate to the problems of a 'new kid in school', from 'Inside Out', but gotta watch it again, with a different attitude, as in NOT trying to watch it from Piper's point of view, which I can't really understand anyway.

Because I'm sorta stuck in an Anti-Bush rant.. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D99NHb6B03s Can you imagine all those rapper stars with these things?

The boys in 'da hood will have a field day on their daily drive bys. P Diddy will wear his on a chain around his neck. You suppose there will be special pockets made in jeans for these things? Trailer trash folks will have 'em camouflaged. Jeff Foxworthy will have to come up with some fresh Redneck stuff. Think George W. will get one, each for the twins? Don't forget Dickie boy for those spur of the moment huntin' trips. Of course Ma Babs will have hers with pearls. Think it will affect the Royals? I can imagine Charles and Camilia on their fox hunt...........ah yes, and Prince Philip, too, must include the...

You think the Repub brand is tarnished now?

Just wait 'til Bonehead leads us all over the cliff, to save his 2% buddies having to pay a little higher tax. The Pubs keep thinking the American public is stupid, and they can get away with their phony political crap. They keep forgetting we're not all a bunch of FOXNews sheep, who'll swallow whatever swill is shoveled to them. A once proud party, like a beast in it's death throes, striking out to harm whatever's close, threatening to shut the gov't down, (again), over the debt limit, which is just paying the bills they already ran up. Political hacks, pretending to be patriots. So sad...

Great 'bargains' at the local Sprouts store

where we picked up asparagus and baby back ribs. Carol and I went for the same stuff (serarately, today), cuz it is so good, AND a great price. Had it for dinner tonight. WOW. One of my fav dinners, as the ribs start out in the crock pot, then finish on the grill, with fresh asparagus. (and bread pudding for dessert) I LOVE this time of year...
