Thursday, June 6, 2013Good morning crew,
So, the Michigan wine odyssey is all planned. At least I hope it is. I left most of the work in the wife's capable hands. When we were dating I would do most of the planning for little excursions and adventures. Now that we are married the roles have reversed a bit.
I am still instrumental in the idea phase. In fact, I have been wanting to do this wine tour for years. Of course, spending 8 hours driving to different places to drink might not be the most brilliant idea, but I think with a little foresight, moderation and discretion we should be able to pull it off with a bare minimum of collateral damage.
At least the weather looks like it will be cooperating. By next week I should have some interesting stories for you.
Enjoy your weekend!
Laugh it up,
Joe

***"IRS executive Lois Lerner has refused to quit and will collect her full pay and benefits while on administrative leave. They asked her to resign. She refused to go. Where in the real world does that ever happen? You get fired and you tell your boss, 'I'm going to stay, and I want my money.' And you wonder why we're $16 trillion in debt." -Jay Leno
***"Mayor Bloomberg now says he's outlawing sugary drinks. I was in a bit of a shakedown coming to work today. I had my giant drink. The cops got a hold of me and they said, 'What's that?' I said, 'This happens to be my medicinal Mountain Dew.'" -Dave Letterman
***"Disney World is raising the price of its tickets, which means that a family of four will now pay almost $400 to visit the park for one day, but it's all worth it to spend a day in the hot Florida sun waiting for your kid to throw up in the teacups." -Jimmy Fallon
***A Mexican restaurant I pulled up to looked great. Only one problem: It wasn't open. So I jotted down the name for another day. Just then, a man came out of the restaurant and took a peek at what I'd written.
"That's not the name of the restaurant," he said, pointing to the sign over the door. "That's Spanish for 'Closed on Mondays.'"
*-------------- Guaranteed to Roll Your Eyes --------------*One of my college friends asked a group of us for advice on organizing his final report for the year. "Why don't you use Roman numerals to head the different sections?" another friend suggested.
"I already thought of that," he replied. "But my keyboard doesn't have Roman numerals on it."
