2011
Lessons to learn or experiment in the new year.
*Planting corn further away from the fence (daggone deer, quit eating my corn)
*Fattening up the smallest dog to the same size as the rest of the pack, so she does not feel so left out. She may calm down too, or she is too fat to fight back.
*Hide extra gloves, hat and scarfs in the trunk.
*Tie a string to the remote control - we won't lose it and makes it easier to fish from under the couch.
*Brush my teeth, brush the dog's teeth, with different brushes of course. But they have beef flavoured paste, tastes doggone good.
*When baking, use non-stick spray followed by a dusting of SUGAR for a crunchy non-stick crust.
*Find a substitude for SOUR CREAM, since Big Bad Papa "do not eat sour cream". (although I have gotten away with it before)
I am sure we have more to add to this list.

Some Lessons Learnt in 2010
*The smallest dog in the pack may be the most vicious dog.
*Planting corn close to the fence only means you are feeding the deer next door.
*When travelling in Winter, make sure to pack 3 pairs of gloves, hats and scarfs; especially since we forgot at 2 pairs of gloves, hats and scarfs.
*Not matter how big the car looks, we always need more room when we travel.
*Getting new fish with big bellies only means more fish in a few days.
*Half a steer and half a hog will not fit into our freezer.
*Beef tajine, Morrocan beef stew, is really easy and satisfying.
*If you introduce "Papa was a Rolling Stone" by the Temptations to a 7 year old, you will hear it for the next 2 weeks.
*New Kids on the Block have grown into Old Boys from the Block, but they still rock.
*If you introduce New Kids on the Block to a 7 year old, you will see her sing and dance for 3 minutes. Quite entertaining though.
*If you put Michael Jackson on the tele, a 7 year old can mimic his dance moves and leave you alone until the special ends in 3 hours, after which she will ask to watch it again. Just say yes.
*If a dumpling is steaming, there is a good chance the mouth and tongue will be burnt if you do not wait.
*Should ask why there is a job vacancy - did the hostile monster eat the previous occupant.
*If someone brags about their guns, they are likely carrying a gun illegally.
*Always measure the walls before buying furniture.
*Always measure the door openings before buying a refrigerator.
*If the dog is chewing on a brown "popsicle" in the snow, brush dog's teeth before getting kisses.
*Soup is a pretty good crowd pleaser, but figure that you will lose half of it on the way to potluck.
*That 84 year old guy can out run you or me, he is out dancing every Friday.
*How to get the attention the police officer for a non-emergency? Chase after a cruiser, I did.

Ahhh shucks....
The coaches shook hands.....
Not the dramatic ending I was hoping for.
But at least Brady broke Favre's record.... now I need to see his Ugg's commercial.
"If you lose say little, if you win say less." Brady qoutes Belichick. Classy.
The difficult choice.....
Going back a few decades, (I am old enough to count by decades)home was an apartment in Downtown Crossing in Boston Massachusetts. The streets of Manhatten was the playground for summer and whenever I can share gas money.
Boston and New York are my other hometowns that I claim.
On this night, I am not sure who to cheer for (actually I do), JETS or PATS?
The Jets are getting their wings clipped and beaks duct-taped by Papa Belichek and his posse. Nothing too violent, just good plays and execution by Snoop Belichick. Experience reigns as the Pats pound the Jets into the slush, with 2 minutes left, the heartbreaking score 45-3. Ahh a few more drinking in the Big Apple tonight. Sanchez and Ryan, licking their wounds coughing up fur balls all the way home.
The best part to watch, will the coaches brawl in the middle of the field.
*watching ......

There Goes the Beer
*this video is late because it had to be converted from one format to another.
I wonder why we were cheering, the beer wagon was leaving, with the beer while we were left holding the cameras as witness(?)

Are you cracking up yet
Just in case the virtual salmonella hasn't hit you yet,
Here is one to get you cracking:
Shhh .. I am hiding my secret identity .... The Melon Bandit!

Melon Bandit?
So the garden swells with the over growth of sweet potato vines, more leaves than fruit tomato plants, half eaten (by the neighbourhood deer) corn, and a few surprise cantaloupe.
Yeap, these city folks got some melons in 'em vegetable patch.
Then in a blink ( a few unguarded seconds) a war erupted between Elmer Fudd (wanna be) and the Melon Bandit.
At the rate the fortress is expanding, we should have a few boys from the National Guard stand next to the multi-layered defence erected around a few melons.
Here is the evidence, notice little teeth marks from chewing and carrying to Mommy.
**********************
Oh yeah, the Melon Bandit is sooooo sorry.
*********************************************
Yeah right .... I am so cute, I get away with everything ... so far.
(Cucumbers, melon, Victoria's favorite left shoe, every stuffed animal, phone book, piss on daddy's side of the bed.)
