And we're back. All kinds of stuff happened over the long holiday weekend, but apparently writing wasn't one of them. Funny how that works.

Here's some random stuff I was going to stretch out a bit but then I decided to keep it short instead.

While attending a wedding receptions in Wisconsin, I got a kick out of how the banquet staff came around and offered everybody a glass of milk to drink with dinner. I took one and put it next to my glass of water, my glass of champale, and my glass of *non-Wisconsin* beer. I appreciate the choices, but talk about a bladder buster.

While reading her full page ad in the Sunday paper, I noticed that Yoko Ono hasn't said anything original in like 25 years. She's still quoting stuff John Lennon said in the 70's. Stuff that they pitched as being from 'them'. Turns out it was from 'him' and she was just 'a creative fraud'. A rich fraud, sure, but a fraud none-the-less.

While watching the press conference replays from the MadCow2003 stuff, I realized that the one dude who is the Head Veterinarian of the United States is pretty wicked smart about animals. And his sidekick buddy - who I think actually may have been his boss at the FDA - was also pretty wicked smart. It was neat to listen to them answer questions. They used terms like 'muscle meat'. That was a first for me.

And talking about muscle meat, the Jucy Lucy crew headed over to Murray's this afternoon for a lunch Lucy. (I wore jeans.) I've written up our review in the broken-til-just-now Best Jucy Lucy section of the site. Check it out. As a bonus, while fixing the broken Lucy pages, I also ported the triplog stuff that I kept when Libby and I went to NYC last year. Someday we'll take another vacation, but until then, just keep rereading about that one over and over again.

Oh, and I saw Oliver Miller in the skyway today. That's one big dude.
