After the snow is gone

I must admit I blew a gasket on this!

Wisconsin property taxes are on the rise and services like snowplows destroy the brand new layer of gravel edgeing they just put down last year! What's wrong with this picture?


Yup Dodge Copunty spent a pretty penny to lay down about 8 inches of fresh gravel last year because the road is some what narrow and the county used it as a detour during the Hwy 60 bridge construction just out of Hustisford.


Now its gone! hmm... I saw this coming last year already and now I am faced with my day of reconing. I remember the 3 foot long strips of sod layin on top of the drifts over the winter.


I knew then that this summer I can look forward to a bouncy ride on the ol' mower. What I did not see then was that fresh gravel. Guess where it went.



Yup, right where I asked for it last year! When I told the town board member as we looked at it, when it was fresh, I can't run 8" of gravel through my lawn mower! When I asked to use some of the edge for the area by the mail box he said no.

I couldn't mow gravel then and I will be dambed if I will now! I figure if YOU throw it in my yard its mine.

I could thank you for topping off the potholes in my driveway, but then you were not out there picking it out of my Lawn assholes!

I'm gettin too old for this kind sh**! Unintended consequences? 2 blisters, a bit of chest pain and cramps, I figure I got 35 wheel barrels of winnowed gravel thanks to your waste Dodge County!

Yes I do vote in the primaries!

Drink Not of This Cup



A little somethin' from Obama Care?

Are you sufferin' from those ol' head spinnin' migrains?

Are you feelin' sick and tired from seein' too much news on the evening local TV at 10:00 o'clock?

What do you do? Change the channel only to find this one blames that one?

Yup, evidently some folks got poisoned on the campaign trail back in '08. Rumor has it the party untencils and Koolaid containters were all sterilized with good ol' Hydrogen Barackside reports an unidentified unemployeed campaign groopie. "Why would we want to let germs get into Koolaid?"

Unintended consequences? Hmmm.... Now it makes sence!

WHEN YOU'RE OLD AND DON'T MOVE FAST ANYMORE.


George Phillips, an elderly man, from Meridian, Mississippi, was going up to bed, when his wife told him that he'd left the light on in the garden shed, which she could see from the bedroom window. George opened the back door to go turn off the light, but saw that there were people in the shed stealing things.
He phoned the police, who asked: "Is someone in your house?"
He said: "No! But some people are breaking into my garden shed and stealing from me".
Then the police dispatcher said: "All patrols are busy. You should lock your doors and an officer will be along when one is available."
George said: "Okay."
He hung up the phone and counted to 30. Then he phoned the police again and said:
"Hello, I just called you a few seconds ago because there were people stealing things from my shed. Well, you don't have to worry about them now because I just shot and killed them both, the dogs are eating them right now." ... and he hung up.
Within five minutes, six Police Cars, a SWAT Team, a Helicopter, two Fire Trucks, a Paramedic, and an Ambulance showed up at the Phillips' residence, and caught the burglars red-handed.
One of the Policemen said to George, "I thought you said that you'd shot them!"
George said, "I thought you said there was nobody available!"
(True Story) I LOVE IT!
Don't mess with old people.
