Winner of the Wet T-Shirt Contest!

My friend Dale sent this through Facebook. Children are such a delight, especially when they belong to  someone else.

I know, Right?

Tired

                                        The best use of used tires I have ever seen.

                                                People are really very interesting. 

                                     Consider that this first existed in someones mind.

No Flicking Way

              Zachary's response to Kevin's bathroom stall humor from yesterday:

People are like boogers.

You can pick your friends. 

You can pick your nose.

But you can't flick your friends out the window. 

Everyone Loves a Slinky

While Kevin and I were visiting the San Gregorio General Store today, Kevin went to the Bathroom and came out laughing. Written on the stall were these words of Wisdom:
People are like Slinkys, they are basically worthless, but when you throw them down the stairs, it puts a smile on your face. 

The Birthday Girls

I have known this woman for 43 years. We were born one week apart and when we first met we became friends for life. We have been confidants, we have laughed, and we have cried together. She is all business, and I am the silly one and when you mix us together we cut loose pretty well. I hope everyone has a friend like I have in Tina. Our friendship is a gift and one of the brightest spots of my life. Happy Birthday dear girl.

Forget Something?

So this guy goes to a pub after work and commences drinking. Later that night he checks the time and knows his wife is going to kill him if she catches him coming home this late. He stands up from the bar and promptly falls to the floor. Still imagining his wife's displeasure, he army crawls, pulling himself along by the arms. He makes it into bed and his wife was never the wiser. When he awakes, he sees his wife standing by the bed, with her arms crossed and not to happy. She says Patrick you left your wheelchair at the Pub again. 

No Cross Words.

Our friends Max and Heidi used their Banana Grams to lay out all the names of our Cod Toss Family. I thought it was very cool and ingenious. If you haven't played Banana Grams, it is really a fun game and I recommend it. 

Cod Sighting

There we were minding our own business when 

this happened. 

The Cod Toss

 We are proud members of the North American Cod Research Society. This was taken at the 29th annual meeting in Northern California. There was a lot of horse play, swimming, music and mayhem. Of course this all happened while discussing the compendium of Cod Research complied throughout the year. We then tabulate and Codify the quantities of Cod found in and around the Pacific Northwest.






This is Kevin my dear husband with a cod hat, goggles, and his accordion. Entertaining the Researchers with his rendition of Cod Bless America and Nearer my Cod to Thee.

This is a school of Cod being gathered for the annual photograph that will be distributed among the Codgragation. It is many of the members, but certainly not all of the members.
Please forgive the irregularity of my blog posting as it is difficult to Codgitate about anything but the up coming  30th annual Cod Tossing event, which required a great deal of preparation. I promise to give you all the updates as soon as they become available.  Cod's Speed.

Can You Relate?

My friend sent me this video, it's pretty funny and I can certainly relate. I was going to say something more, but now I can't remember what it was. 

Excuse Me

Our friend came over the other night after kayaking in the Elk horn Slue. We asked him about the 14' great white shark, that had been spotted off Steamer Lanes in Santa Cruz, and had he seen it? The Great White had bitten a Kayak. He had not seen the shark but it reminded him of the two sharks that were discussing  the scuba diver that would be there next meal. The one shark said to the other, "What ever you do, don't eat that yellow cylinder on it's back, it will give you gas."

Get er Done

We awakened yesterday to no internet connection. Our modem was frozen and there was nothing left to try but call Comcast. The Gentleman  from Comcast comfirmed that the modem was not working and that we had two and only two choices, either sign up for a monthly charge of $3.99 for in home repair service or pay for an in home call between $30.00 to $50.00. I told him I pay over $45.00 a month to have High Speed internet and that they installed the now malfunctioning modem and I thought Comcast should make sure for that amount of money that their equipment works. The Gentleman then reiterated my only two options, either pay monthly or for the one time service call but added that I could drive to the nearest Comcast store (at least an hour drive) to procure another modem. I paused and he asked if I was still on the line. I was still on the line, but told him I still was not happy. Then I asked him if I could sign up for the $3.99 a month plan, have the repair guy out and then cancel the plan? He advised that I must keep the plan for 90 days. I said well that is $12.00, so sign me up for that and schedule someone to come out. The repairman came out between 10:00am and 12:00am and said that he had never even seen a modem like that, it was so old, and hooked us up with a new one. We are back in action for $12.00 and I wrote on my calendar a reminder to cancel the service plan in three months. All I could think is how stupid is that?

Tatts

This morning Joshua showed us his new ink. We asked him what kind of dinosaur he had on his stomach. He didn't know so we named it a Belliosauras. 

Let's Go Hiking With Bells On!
