My New Personal Hero

I found it pants wettingly funny that the Strib closed it's article with the fact that Norm calls his Dad his personal hero. The irony is brilliant! He uses a "I respect my father" line to dodge his lack of military service, but now we see what he was really talking about. He respects a man that can live in a different state than his wife and have sex with women half his age. Now that is a personal hero that seems well suited for the Norm.

Summertime and the living is...

It is hovering around 90 degrees with a humidity that can only be described using small words. Small words, because big words get lost the haze. There is very little rational thought in this weather. Yesterday I biked to worked and got caught a downpour that soaked me to the bone and surely ruined my shoes. It was the best I have felt in days! I hope tonight brings some more rain.

I am too hot to write about politics. I will just say that I am keeping all options open in the AG race. I like the idea of a new woman one the scene, but I think that some people resist getting into elections for the right reasons. Let's see what happens.

Blah, blah, blah. The reason I really wanted to post today is to plug the upcoming Summit Beer 20th anniversary Celebration. The Summit Big Brew is a concert at Harriet Island on Sept 30th from Noon to 10pm. It is Loaded with great bands and I am almost certain they will have good beer! Currently, Cake, Soul Asylum, The Suburbs, Richard Thompson, Tapes 'n Tapes (who will be on Letterman tonite), The Alarmists and more are slated to play. Get it in your calendars. I look forward to seeing you all there. Tickets can be purchased at the Summit Brewery for $20 beginning August 7th. You can also purchase the tickets online somewhere, but they will cost you more and you will not walk away with any cool Summit shwag.
