Did you watch the ‘Dancing with the Stars’ elimination last night?  I did.  I love that show.  Cloris Leachman is absolutely making that show this season.  She might be 82 years old but that lady still has a lot of life in her and she proves it every Monday night.  Ladies like her give the rest of us hope, ya know?  We all hope to be that alive at 82.  Heck most of us just hope to still be alive at all but I think you know what I mean.

I have to admit I was really hoping Cloris would make it at least one more week and no I didn’t vote.  I don’t vote very often on that show but I have a few times I must admit.  I think she was more surprised than I was that she didn’t get voted off.

Well Cloris, you go girl and thanks for the joy you are bringing to the dance floor!!!

I am so darn mad at myself.  Of all the darn things, yesterday I backed right into a telephone pole at the telephone company to make matters worse.  Like they aren’t supposed to have telephone poles at the telephone company.  Well not in the middle of the tiny little parking lot anyway.  Now I’m looking for yorba linda collision repair so I can get an estimate on the damage.  I can get a rough estimate right online and make an appointment too. 

I just wonder if I could get that darn telephone pole cut down?  Why in the world would they have a stupid pole in the middle of their parking lot anyway.  Maybe they got something going on with the insurance company???  It’s possible but I doubt it.  It’s not like they just put it there either.  It’s been right there for as long as I can remember it.  I just wish I would have remembered it yesterday too.

I didn’t know they had anti-bear spray but apparently they do.  It seems a can of it went off in an airport in Juneau Alaska closing it down.  It got into the ventilation system and instead of running bears away, it ran everyone out of the airport.  They even had to take one person to the hospital.  The airport was closed for a hour and a half because of the anti-bear spray.  This stuff comes in a canister like pepper spray and is supposed to stop an attacking bear.  Well it works on people but I don’t know about bears.

My neighbors kids are spoiled absolutely rotten.  They just got one of the neatest wooden swing sets I have ever seen.  Really the kids are great kids and I didn’t mean to imply they weren’t good kids.  If my kids were still small, I would have loved to have gotten them a swing set like the one the neighbors got too.

Well I do have grand babies that visit so I still might check into getting one for my yard after all.  There’s nothing I like better than hearing children laughing.  That’s the sweetest sound there is.

Did you hear about the pig in Australia that was holding a woman captive in her home for 10 days?  She had an outhouse (an outside bathroom for those of you who don’t know what that is) and couldn’t even go out to the bathroom without this 176 pound pig attacking her.  The 63 year old woman is an animal lover and said the pig they called ‘Bruce’ kept head butting her bedroom door demanding to be fed.

Okay, I love animals too.  I especially love pork Bar-b-que and bacon.  No animal is going to keep me held hostage in my home.  Not even an animal I raised and loved.  I’m sorry but it would have been taken care of one way or another.  It wasn’t even her pig.  It wandered on to her property 11 days earlier.  The animal was finally captured and taken to a piggery where he will do a stint as a stud.  I still think the woman should have at least gotten some bacon for her misery.
