Fins: We need to chat about St. Patrick's Day.

Padua?......Belle Plaine?......Key West?......
OK, I'm going to Key West.
TDT, I expect you to meet me at the airport with a mojito in one of BDB's mugs.  8) Wear your new pants.
Man, I'm ready to put the snowblower away for the season and slip on my flip-flops. 8) Looks like this "dusting" we got today is enough to shovel.

Definitely enough to shovel in west central Wiscy...    but you know what, snow melts!  Screw it, I'm done shoveling for the year!

When are you heading south?  It's still more than a week til St. Patty's.

I'll be down at the Friendly Sons of St. Patrick in Los Angeles where they're giving an award to General Casey - I can't believe there's an award that John's missing out on this year, but there is.  As for weather, I suppose it'll be in the 80s down there as opposed to the 70s we're suffering currently up north here.  8)

Did I ever mention that my barber is from Bemidji?  Still has lots of family in MN but hasn't even been back to visit in the state since moving out here in the 60s!

Fins that would be St. Urho's Day! Patron saint of Finland! I'm shocked you haven't taken all of the little Fins to Sebeka to see the Statue of St. Urho!

[Touchdown Tommy]

10-4 Fins.  I'll have some key lime mojitos concocted for the gang on the yacht when I arrive mid-afternoon on the 17th.  If St. Paddy's Day is anything like New Year's Eve in Key West we are in for a treat.  Cops in Lifeguard chairs on Duval Street, beers sold on the street in cans for cheap, beads, balconies, and girls.  Hope the weather cooperates, I'll be taking pictures for the enjoyment of the MIAC posters (provided I can hold the camera steady  8) ) 

While I am NOT Irish this is like a holiday for me.  I mean I get mildly drunk, the girls get rediculously drunk, and my odds of getting some increase exponentially.  Seriously, how many times a year does that happen??  Will work on some orange/pink argyle pattern shorts to complete my Tommy Bahama outfit...

Yea Tmerts who are you foolin', you don't need a barber, just your wife and the scissors...

So from 0.1% you move up to 1%?

[Touchdown Tommy]

ho ho ho, I knew you'd be the first to jump on that line...

[janesvilleflash]

1 in a million
So your saying there's a chance?

I just put you at 666 - how 'bout we leave you there for a while like we did for TDT?  You're a bad man.

Two Lines

When everybody on earth was dead and waiting to enter Paradise, God appeared and said, "I want the men to make two lines.  One line for the men who were true heads of their household, and the other line for the men who were dominated by their women.  I want all the women to report to St. Peter."   Soon, the women were gone and there were two lines of men.

The line of the men who were dominated by their wives was 10,000 miles long, and in the line of men who truly were heads of their household, there was only one man, known to us here as KR.  God addressed the long line, "You men should be ashamed of yourselves, I created you to be the head of your household!  You have been disobedient and have not fulfilled your purpose!  Of all of you, only one obeyed.  Learn from him."

God then turned to KR and asked, "How did you manage to be the only one in this line?"

KR replied, "My wife told me to stand here!"

Don't worry about your outfit or the babes. Your job is to make sure I have a fresh mojito or a cold beer at all times and be a good wingman. The rest will fall into place.  8)
And careful with the camera...developing.

Since St. Urho seems to be the patron saint of Finnish vineyard workers and grasshopper management, he fits in nicely with a drinking trip to Florida.  8)

[sumander]

Tmert, Thanks for the back up on St. Urho. I stand corrected the statue is in Menahga, not Sebeka. Constantly getting those two lovely little towns mixed up on beautiful Highway 71!
