Get Downtown

Once again Amy and I had a great meal @ Chester's Kitchen & Bar. The food is terrific, they have a light menu that won't leave you hungry. Lots of choices..... And great bar.. Fun, clean and open late...

Also, great location for both lunch and dinner. Located downtown Rochester in the University Square over looking Peace Plaza and surrounded by plenty of shops and things to do.

So get downtown and support these business so that we can keep them...

Christmas Bogus

December 26: christmas bogus

Receiving nothing from your employer for Christmas.

Once again, my cheap boss Phil, gave us all a Christmas bogus.

This is today's term on urban dictionary. It hit home with me because, execpt for my time with my employer in Kalamazoo, I've never received anything from my supervisors. Not even a $1 Micky D's gift certificate....

However, selling nuts and bolts is a gift all in itself...

That's right. The Christmas cards will have a pre Christmas postmark this year.

All the credit must go to Amy. I didn't help at all, except I did walk them to the mailbox...

Ho Ho Ho! Have a Merry Christmas...

McBabie in the McOven

Well if you haven't heard the BIG news. Amy is pregnant with my baby.... This spring we will find out for sure when we will appear on Maury, but I think it's safe to say the baby is mine, and Amy's too.

The pic above was from the end of November @ 20 weeks. Amy was a little weirded out with how I got the camera in position but it was worth it.

Seriously, Amy has been doing great. She's only been a little tired, maybe I shouldn't have her shoveling snow, but I did promise her that when the baby comes the nanny will take over those chores.

Lucky for you I will be putting a lot of this kinda crap out there.. So hang on...

November 11: bumper sticker activism

To tell the world what they should be doing and what you think by plastering your car with bumper stickers to that effect.

Jim: That "Keep Tahoe Blue" sticker is really making me wonder how to keep Tahoe blue. Mike: Yeah, Berkeley is full of bumper sticker activism. Too bad the sticker's on a Ford Expedition, since keeping Tahoe blue involves reducing emissions.

Don't Mess with Texas

I think Texas was a Red State........

Obama Tax "Cut" Calculator

I found this Obama tax cut calaculator. It's put out by the Obama camp... I like the remarks if you put in $250K and up.. It doesn't say you pay more? Just you won't probably get a tax cut... Nothing about how much of an increase..
