OLYMPIC QUOTE OF THE DAY:

Welcome to day 10 of the most fantastic Olympic Games of all time. It has been so exciting and a feat in itself to get the the Games on time for each event. My goodness we've never seen crowds like this before. We heard that ASTA was taking folks to the events on her Vespa since she can zip in and out of traffic.

Well WEENIE has an announcement for all the young ladies needing a lift to the events. As soon as he is finished completing in the Equestrian competition, he is willing to fly them to the stadium on his Magic Bumble Bee that he is riding at the event.

There is NO fee for this service BUT a small tip of a kiss from the ladies would be accepted.

Mona here...........my brother has become something of a player it seems. Today he gave me a list of the ladies he hopes will want to use his services.......Mindy, Amber, Shelby, Millie, Lorenza,, Matilda, Puddles, Mina Krebs, Pickles, Lily Belle, Muffin.....need I go on?

Any way, let's get down to today's action. 

"What? Did you say something Mommy."

"Yes my sweet Mona, I did want to say something that has been bothering me for quite a while about stupid people that die from their actions or kill innocent people and sometimes dogs, but let's wait until you & Weenie finish your post."

OK Mommy but don't cry this is supposed to be a fun time right now!!

The Mommy here......

This last week has been a very sad time for me. A dear friend  and fellow co-worker was found dead in his apartment. He was only 35 years old, young enough to be my son and I treated him as if he was. I loved him, what more can I say. As most of you know, I have two very good friends, one a lot of you know as Aunt Judy and the other as Miss Mimi, Scout and Freyla's Mom. They both e-mail me a lot of stuff that they know will interest me, mostly funny things but the other day I got one that saddened me and made me very angry that these things can happen. It made me think of my friend Jorge who just died. His nephew was killed in an auto accident 2 years ago and it was because the driver was texting and drove over a railroad track as a train was barreling through. All 4 of the young men in the car were killed, all of them 18 years old. Jorge was never the same after that. He was brokenhearted. When I saw this picture it hurt and made me remember that day.

You might need to blow the picture up to read what it says bit I will translate for you.

They found his cell phone still in his hand. 

His head was in the back seat.

Please, don't let anyone you love or yourself drive and text.

It's against the law in Texas, but kids still die.

God Bless.............the Mommy
