Friday Foto Fiesta 11-7-8

Here's a picture from earlier this summer. Stacy and I visited our local winery, Mallow Run. It was very hot, and she decided to take a break from the summer sun and sit in the shade. While she was resting, I took this great photo. Enjoy!!!





Don't forget to take a gander at Squirrel Chatter.

A little Americana - John Mellencamp "Sweet Love"

Hey, it's time for a little Americana. Let's get back to our roots. It's almost Friday. I've just purchased me a bottle of wine. Some good, "rhubarb wine" from Mallow Run. So for all my readers, this is for you

John Mellencamp - Sweet Love

The first single from John's new album, Life, Death, Love and Freedom, is the track "My Sweet Love"!

Enjoy!!!!



Ahh, what the hell....You can't listen to Mellencamp without listening to Jack and Diane..so hear it is

Barney's taking the loss a little hard

Apparently, current first dog, Barney, is having some issues coping with the changing administration. According to Yahoo, Reuters political reporter Jon Decker was bitten by Barney today and had to be treated by the White House physician.

Here's the scene, Decker just finished his interview. He's getting up to leave as the Barney and his handler enter the room. As he's reaching down to pet Barney, he gets nipped on the finger.

Decker's reply, "That's not good."

My guess as to what Barney's reply would be, "What till I see that Obama".

Anyways, I thought that was an interesting story. Then the news cut to some story about Palin. Blah, blah, blah!

IU Basketball Tickets are now on Sale!!!

Article courtesy of Mike Pegram @ peegs.com:

Bloomington, Indiana - The Indiana University Athletic Department has announced that it has begun selling newly available season tickets to the general public through the IU Athletic Ticket Office. Single game tickets also are available through all Ticketmaster locations.

IU has sold out of its dedicated allotment of tickets for public renewals, faculty and staff. The newly available tickets come from the inventory of unused student tickets. However, the department will continue to offer student season tickets for sale throughout the campaign.

"As I said earlier this year about our players, this is a great opportunity for someone who maybe hasn't had the opportunity before to become involved with our program from the ground up," said first-year Coach Tom Crean. "We have been overwhelmed with support from throughout the state and we are hopeful that this opportunity will give many a chance to become more intimately involved with this year's team as we look toward the future. We look forward to Assembly Hall filling up game after game like it has always been."

Season tickets are on sale for $451 for the general public and $210 for students. Single game tickets are available for $23 for the general public and $15 for students. Tickets for Ohio State, Wisconsin, Michigan State and Illinois are $38 for the general public.

Single game floor tickets ($30) also are available for games against Northeastern (Dec. 22), Lipscomb (Dec. 28) and Michigan (Jan. 7)

To order season tickets, contact the IU Athletic Ticket Office at 866-IUSPORTS or visit IUHoosiers.com. To purchase single game tickets prior to the day of the game, visit Ticketmaster.com.

Why we love Phyllis...

From Lenny9987: Who doesn't love Phyllis? She may be a little quiet at times but when she has something to say, she makes it count. Don't underestimate this little lady. I don't own The Office, NBC does.

Random Saturday Postings...

Ahh, let's start this post of with some Rolling Stones for a wonderful, fall Saturday.




Okay, now, that's a cool song! Anyways, I'm not really at my most productive self today. The blogger at Lifehack.org would be pretty disappointed in me today.

Today's task....cleaning and storing the grill for winter.

I'm kind of sad, because my grill season is officially over and I only made it four recipe's into my grill book, but I'm also proud of my cooking skills. This year with my new 16,000 btu grill, I've been able to do some kick-a** ribs, some awesome burgers, and even started perfecting some steaks. I can't wait to break it out next year.



I am electric man!!! Decoy's Lois, Decoys!!!!

Speaking of boo...how about a HALLOWEEN picture to end the post!
