READ AND TAKE NECESSARY CORRECTIVE ACTION.

   The Center for Disease Control has issued a warning about a
new virulent strain of a communicable disease. The disease is contracted
through ignorant, promiscuous, and irresponsible behavior. The disease is
called Gonorrhea Lectem and is pronounced "gonna re-elect 'em."

        Many victims contracted it in 2008, after having been
"brainwashed" with promised change and then screwed. Naturalists and
epidemiologists are amazed at how widespread this disease has become since
it is so easily cured....by voting out all incumbents!

Apparently, there is a vaccine available in Massachusetts.

Happy New Years

It's New Years Day so it's another great ride out at George Winter's Ranch. There were 50 brave men and women who showed up for a lap in the 20 degree weather. Fortunately it was a bright sunny day so while it was DAMN cold the sun made you forget about it (mostly). We all did a lap and at least one crazy person (my son, Christopher) turned around and did another lap. It took me about two hours to do about 3/4 lap. I bailed after falling and skewering my back on a rock or branch. Didn't realize I did that for another couple miles when it started to burn.

After the ride, there was a TON O FOOD. Chili, ham and beans, bbq, wings, brownies, cookies and assorted other items. Much consumption happened and there was a smile on everyone's face.

George is a FANTASTIC host. If the weather is above freezing we do the feasting outside with several propane heaters running to take the chill off. If it's really cold, he opens the house and we spread out there, in the heat ;-) Obviously we were in the house today.

Phil Shouldberg (retired photographer for AB) took a group portrait, Can't wait to see it.

I can now say, I rode on th coldest day of the year. Unfortunately it's going to be even colder tomorrow so I guess I'll do a Castlewood ride.

Happy New Year all,

Oh these kids today

I had an eye opener this week with my kids and grandkids. (ok, I'm old, I'll admit it). Both of our grandkids deal with the iPhone as if it is second nature. It's just they way things are. My daughter and husband use their iPhones as entertainment and distractions for the youngest (10 months). They have numerous apps for little kids. Farm animals with noises, cartoon videos, you name it, they "have an app for that". They aren't just fun, many are hand, eye coordination and/or educational.

These kids will grow up with ALWAYS ON INTERNET being the norm and an expectation. They'll know they can usually get the answer to questions from their phone. They'll use their phone as a GPS, instant messenger, game machine, access to all media imaginable and generally their access to everything.

Where will they take this?
