Workers at the cemetery in Merksem had music playing and their children were running around near the graves, De Morgen newspaper said Wednesday. Gravedigger Willy Wouters told the daily the barbecue -- held yearly -- had never caused trouble before.

When I was in high school a friend of mine who's dad owned a funeral home would have people over to the home for parties. Being that we where underage it was one of the few places we could party/drink without worrying about the police. Most funeral homes have a small apartment where an overnight guy lives, his job is to pick up the bodies when someone dies in the middle of the night. The guy who lived at this funeral home would buy the beer and provide other "refreshments" for us as long as we paid and allowed him to join in the festivities. I know several young ladies who had intimate encounters among the caskets. Kinda creepy now when I look back on it.

Shallows at Lake Calhoun. I have not posted a pic for a few days. Things are still the same with Carrie and I. I'm looking for a new job and Carrie has picked up beading as a hobby, she's really good at it. The weather has been a little bit of a mish-mash but mostly hot and humid with a ton of rain.

XBiz - The Industry Source: "“sex” itself still dominates all individual search words, with more than 300,000 surfers every day over a 60-day period submitting queries that contained “sex.”

“Porn” was the number-two individual word, showing up in around 235,000 queries per day.

Other adult-oriented words in the top 10 include “pussy” at number four with 175,000 daily occurrences and “milf” at number six with around 140,000 searches."

What can I say, sex sells! To bad we can't channel all the energy spent in sexual self satisfaction to some good causes like cures for Cancer or Aids. Of course without self satisfaction we may get more cases of Aids and prostate cancer.

Pinkee's Big Days: "Blogg'd: 'We can only hope that Pinkee�s next destination is a bonfire party on the shores of lake Minitonka.'

We've been getting alot of heat about Pinkee's blog, all I have to say is THANK YOU. Pinkee's blog was done for shits and giggles and I really don't care what you think. From loquacious curmudgeon 'Unless I can find a detailed map of the Loring Park area, and assemble a crack hit team...' bring them on she has 100 stuffed friends to defend her so... good luck! People you take things way to serious. From 3rdtimesacharm'...glossy paged magazine, for all the Teddy Bear people with a Teddy Bear Fetish!' Never heard of the mag and have no intrest in it. My wife collects stuffed animals, mostly those Beany Baby things. She has had Pinkee for 25 years and hopes to pass HER on to our children.

Oh, about tree climbing... 'Tree climbing to avoid bears is popular advice. but not very practical in many settings. All black bears, all grizzly cubs and some adult grizzlies can climb trees if the spacing of the branches is right. Running to a tree may provoke an otherwise uncertain bear to chase you.'"

I gouged my eye's out with a mellon baller after watching this, and I think I got off easy! (thanks to Jason Mulgrew for the link)

No Duh!!!

MSNBC - News of the Weird: "# Recent scholarly findings (reduced to their essence in a May Wall Street Journal column): It's much easier to identify someone if he is physically near you than if he is up to 450 feet away (Psychonomic Bulletin & Review, February). People who choose their careers carefully, rather than on a whim, experience greater job satisfaction (Journal of Economic Psychology, vol. 26, no.3). College students tend to drink more alcoholic beverages than they realize (Alcoholism: Clinical & Experimental Research, April). If patients voluntarily tell a doctor about a bad side effect of a medicine, they are more likely to be switched to a safer one than if they don't (Archives of Internal Medicine, January).

New York Daily News - Home - Tom a pill on TV: "The superstar Scientologist flipped out on the 'Today' show yesterday, pompously lecturing Matt Lauer about the evils of psychiatry - and scolding actress Brooke Shields for taking anti-depressants."

Keep your pie hole shut Tom, stop trying to force your cultish views on the rest of the world. Every time you open that mouth you offend more people, hurting your "cause" and career. I've heard more people talking about War of the Worlds, they're saying they will not go see it because of you.

Today was 96 degrees and humid as hell. But at least we where able to get the AC in yesterday. Bohemian Flats refers to a large migration of Bohemians i.e. Czech people in the late 1800's to Minnesota. The new immigrants built a ramshackle village on public river land that was prone to flooding.

Hi, I'm Pinkee. Did you know that today June 23 is National Pink Day? So my parents Charles and Carrie took me out on a little adventure. Come to my blog for a full picture review of my adventure :)

Spray on mud Products

By the way in case you forgot today is Cuckoo Warning Day and the FIRST DAY OF SUMMER.

Afterwards it left us a beautiful dusk to do laundry by... 

There was a little damage scattered around our area.

During the height of the storm it looked like midnight outside. 

, but as this storm front came through the temp droped 20 degrees in minutes. It droped just shy of 1.5 inches of rain in an hour. Carrie and I had been putting the AC in but had to abort that, maybe today.
